POPULATION: 29

Rise and shine, everyone! At 7:00 AM on the dot, those who are asleep will be roused from their slumber by the sound of a bugle call. It seems that breakfast is now served in the Mess Hall. How nice! It's up to you to decide if you want to continue sleeping or not... But maybe it's a good idea to grab a bite and explore your surroundings. After all, it seems the fog has receded enough to reveal a few new locations.

Regardless of what you do, be sure to check the weather before stepping outside. You never know when you might need an umbrella! Once you're up and at them, though, there are a few points of interest this week.

If you swing by the Director's Office, you will find Purple Heart manning the receptionist's desk or flitting in and out of the rooms down the hallway. This week's tasks are now available, and you can check them out on the announcement board in the waiting room. Should you visit the Camp Shop, Winter Wizard will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Black Shadows doesn't seem to be stationed at any set location. Maybe it's their week off? Oh, well. Seems like if you want to get ahold of them, you'll have to pay your respects to the bunnies.

As you explore the camp, however... You may find yourself confronted by scenes from a not so distant past. Or, perhaps, the so-called-movies playing on the big screen are completely foreign to you. But that's not all you will have to deal with this week. Continue skimming the edges of the forest, and you will find yourself going down memory lane. Literally.

After the events of last week, perhaps you yearn for privacy. Unfortunately, it seems that though your past will no longer be put on blast, your feelings will be made known to those around you instead. Should you come into physical contact with somebody else, you immediately become aware of whatever emotion they are feeling and vice versa. The feeling will linger for five seconds after physical contact has been broken, at which point it will fade. But the knowledge will remain with you. And even worse, it doesn't necessarily have to be skin-to-skin contact like in your first week. As long as you are physically touching them, that will be enough for the effect to take place.

Whether you want to or not, it seems like this is the week to wear your heart on your sleeve. Good luck.

Uhhhhhh...

[ uhhhhhh ]

[

crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow ]

Can't I just look at it longingly from a distance?

Were you actually going to just look at it longingly from a distance?

Yes. And I'll sigh wistfully from afar...

[ she sighs? as if to demonstrate? ]

And not at all try it out later, right?

Dick, I am being so well behaved.

I have absolutely no doubt in you, Steph. [ ... he looks at the course and then back at her ] How bad is your shoulder, exactly?

Slightly stabbed?

[ that's an understatement but the only person who got to really examine it is dead now. ]

[ dick assumes it's an understatement because it's what he said about himself ]

Soo... it might be fine if you do the lower course and try not to use that one too much.

[ dick, don't encourage her. ]

[ she nods!!! ]

Yes! It'll be very safe and I'll be super careful.

[ god, he's a terrible role model. anyway: ]

Okay, go for it. I'll be right behind you.

[ in case anything happens and also because he wanted to do it. "didn't dick get lightly stabbed in the stomach" it was like two weeks ago it's fine ]

Aye, aye!

[ she is so pleased... jocks are all the same

but she'll start with the course then. it's fine. it's less climbing. ]

[ honestly. dick is absolutely not doing the course correctly and just climbing on top of everything unnecessarily, but he is still right behind her. the jocks ... are pleased. ]

You look like you're in pain once and I'm pulling you out, Brown!

[ is he teasing. Maybe ]

I will not even do the faintest of winces. My will is steel.

[ but also, they’re probably used to doing things they shouldn’t while injured because (laughs in crime fighting) so this shouldn’t be too out of the norm. ]
