WEEK FIVE

▽ FULL NAVIGATION ▽ LOCATIONS ▽ STATUSES ▽ IC PROFILES ▽ IC RULEBOOK ▽ MURDER PROPOSALS ▽ PCS ▽ CURFEW ▽ AUDIENCES ▽ CAMP STORE ▽ REPORTING

POPULATION: 24 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 Winter Wizard 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, Black Shadows will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Purple Heart 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. Speaking of memory lane? Some things are better left in the past. Example: The injuries you acquired during your time in your previous rodeo. Unfortunately for everyone, the past has come back to haunt you in the worst way possible. Upon waking up on Monday morning, everyone will realize they have regained every single injury they obtained in their previous game. Even worse, these injuries will look fresh. Lost body parts will abruptly pop off. Slit throats will reappear. Burns and cuts and scrapes will grace you with their presence once again. The effect will cover all injuries, including those that led to death. But although they may be fatal, and although they may bleed... they will oddly enough not lead to your death. The same cannot be said for any additional shanking that may happen during the week, however. Try not to get yourself murdered? Your new, conditional zombie state is just that: conditional. The only saving grace is that, for those who were killed in their previous games, any injuries, marks or horrors wrought upon their corpses after the fatal blow will not appear on their bodies. Phew.

A. HUMPTY DUMPTY

[Early Monday morning, you might hear a loud slam coming from Ox Cabin. If you're in Ox Cabin, well, you'll see what's up right away...or rather, what's down.]

[Here lies Anaido on the floor face down, his body askew and absolutely broken like one of those crime body outlines. His leg is at a bad angle, his hands are crooked, he just...looks horrible. No overly overt wounds or bleeding, though.]

[He grumbles into the floor.]

Ah, good morning to me, I guess.

B: JIGSAW MAN

[Later, he's managed to get himself a wheelchair, though he's clearly struggling with it because of the broken hands and the rough terrain. Anaido seems to be in good spirits, at least, because if someone is staring at his slumped body he'll just laugh.]

I guess it's good that everything is bleeding on the inside, huh. That's where the blood is supposed to be!

[You can find him staring at the rave crabs, smiling, or just trying his best to wheel himself around the camp as best as he can. It's fine. Everything is fine.]

C: WILDCARD

[God please help him. Anyways plurk me over @ vampirize or DM on discord for PCs and stuff!]

[voidbreaker]

[ ....... ]

Did you want a push, or...?

[ because this is just kinda painful to watch, let's be honest. and ash hasn't even broken his bones. ]

[wowcool]

Haha. I wouldn't mind.

[He smiles over at Ash. Pwease, Ash.]

I'm trying to get over to the mess hell.

mess hell...

[voidbreaker]

[ leaves him ther---no. he will push him to the mess hall. ]

If I ask am I gonna be dragging up a bunch of trauma, or...?

SDFGHKJHGFDFGH MESS HELL. freudian slip. he's in hell

[wowcool]

Oh, no! Ask whatever you want!

[ANAIDO STOP BEING SO CHEERFUL ABOUT THIS]

he's in messy hell

[voidbreaker]

[ wow. ash just gestures with one hand: ]

So, uh. What the fuck?

damn right he is

[wowcool]

Haha.

I got pushed off of a lighthouse. It wasn't very fun.

[voidbreaker]

[ yikes. ]

And this is the aftermath?

[ well. he'll try not to wheel over any bumps too quickly. ]

[wowcool]

Mmmhmm.

[Yeah, Ash, don't go too fast too furious with him!!]

I laid there like this for several hours. I don't recommend.

b

[haw]

[ how anaido even got to the lake is a mystery in itself, but we do not question such things. that's why majima's strolling on up to him and nonchalantly commenting, ]

Huh. Ya think they ever get tired?

[ he jerks his head over to the crabs. ]

[wowcool]

[Look people are nice enough to push him places and he just Wanted to See the Crabs, though if Majima notices, he's just kind of squinting at them a little bit.]

Hey, darling. [He says, with a lazy sort of smile.] And hm...I don't think so. That's the kind of power they have.

[haw]

[ he will squint at him squinting. ]

Power, huh... the power to dance 'til the end of time?

[wowcool]

That's the mystery of nature...

[He notices Majima squinting at him, and just shakes his head lightly.]

I don't want to focus on them. If I do, it gets a bit overwhelming for my poor head, haha.

[haw]

[ MORE SQUINTING... ]

Whaddaya mean, "overwhelming"? They're just dancin'.

[wowcool]

Oh, the problem isn't the dancing! There's just a lot of them.

[haw]

Were they botherin' you last week, or is it 'cause of... y'know...

[ just. gestures. to all of anaido ]

[wowcool]

No, this is from my game. I was pushed off of a lighthouse when I was climbing it.

b!

[givethemhell]

[THIS SHAMBLING ZOMBIES WEEK IS TERRIBLE AND HILARIOUS. Wei Wuxian moseys over while he's chilling and watching the rave crabs, though his wildly broken body does earn him a curious... vaguely concerned look...]

Well, you aren't wrong about that! [His robes are black which means most of the blood soaking through doesn't show too badly, but he is very tired of it being outside of his body already.]

Still, you look like you've seen, ah. Better days. [...] I could probably splint a few things for you, if you'd like?

[wowcool]

...You smell like blood.

[He wrinkles his nose a little. Wei Wuxian....]

Splint? [He hadn't even considered that.] I suppose. Though I guess it wouldn't matter too much if the bones in the core are broken, too.

[givethemhell]

That's because I'm bleeding! [HE SAYS, AND GLEEFULLY PATS HIS STOMACH, which probably makes a vaguely wet-ish sound. His palm comes up with blood. Terrible.]

Anyway, I-- [...Oh, right, Anaido is still alive. He was about to offer to fix the broken centers, too, but. That would. Definitely not be a procedure for anyone who is not a zombie.]

...Can just set the bits that aren't too splintered.

[wowcool]

[He just. Leans away a little. Ew??? WEI WUXIAN???]

How...nice. [Yikes.] And I guess you could try yoir best, but...you might need a lot of splints...

[givethemhell]

[STOP HE'S A NASTY LITTLE GOBLIN MAN.]

Mm, that's true. At this point you'd need a full-body cast more than a few splints, hah. Still! Couldn't hurt to do at least a little fixing up.

[wowcool]

Haha, I'd look like a mummy if you did a full body cast.

[He shrugs.]

If you want to go for it, go for it. Not like I have anything to lose.

[givethemhell]

Mind if I wheel you to the nurse's office, then? ...How'd you end up in this state, anyway?

[Anaido your bones...]

[wowcool]

Sure, go for it. And this? I got pushed off of a lighthouse when I was climbing it.

[You know. Regular things to do.]
