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.

[well, Akira is here!! he is missing his right leg, the wound wrapped with bloodied bed sheets and towels. he has a pair of crutches lying on the bench next to him, thank god. immediately visible are the bandages that cover a gash on his cheek, but. there is probably. . . more. . . just. judging by the way he, like]

[sits there with his head resting against the table]

[and doesn't]

[move]

[how did he even get to the mess hall]

[ wow he looks like shit!! dimitri thinks, except in medieval terms and very sympathetically. how sad. very sad for akira. ]

...Akira?

[ he gives his head a gentle poke. ]

[his head lolls to the side slightly. he makes a muffled noise in response]

[he's fine]

[ yeah this seems like something someone fine would do. he looks concerned. ]

Perhaps... you ought to get some rest this week. Would you like me to get you some food?

[he lifts a hand to give Dimitri a weak thumbs up. still not lifting that head, though]

Pancakes. . .?

...One moment.

[ soon enough he's back with pancakes, as well as some bacon and fruits and veggies. what are breakfast veggies? i genuinely could not think of any. in any case, they are here, because they all need to keep hale and hearty, especially with all the blood loss. also maybe an apology for the inevitable strip check. ] You ought to eat and keep your strength up, if you can.

[by the time Dimitri returns Akira is sitting up again!! he is fine, he's just being dramatic and also a little delirious. he shoots his fellow camper a grateful look]

. . . thanks.

Let me finish eating and then I'll let you take a look. [though. uh] I'll warn you: it's not pretty.

[he got so many injuries back at the mansion. so many]

[ sometimes you just take a ton of painkillers and hope for the best, it happens. ]

Don't worry about me. [ he's not squeamish, and he seems to have gotten off light compared to everyone else here. two week game blessings. ] Take your time—I'll be here to help you when you're ready.

[Dimitri gets a nod of appreciation at that, but! now it is time to tuck into pancakes and blood replenishing food]

...

[ he just sits himself down opposite him. ]

Do I gotta carry your ass to the nurse's office to get that properly bandaged?

[. . . . a snort. . . but he doesn't lift his head]

Lili already did.

[HIS GASHES ARE PROPERLY BANDAGED his leg is just. . . still wrapped with sheets and towels because it is bleeding something fierce and he needs something way more absorbent than bandages to keep it from dripping everywhere]

[ good, but-- ]

I kinda mean the leg, Akira. Do they seriously not have anything more heavy duty than bandages there?

[lifting his head to give Ash a tired look]

It's, uh. It's bleeding pretty badly.

Yeah, I can see that.

[ akira you're a disaster and he's tired. and eyeing the leggy stump ]

Should we be elevating that more than it already is? [ stop?? bleeding?? ]

[blinks at his injury]

[. . . attempts to lift injured leg onto the bench so it is somewhat elevated??]

[ ... gently helps him move his thigh, I guess? ]

[giving Ash a grateful looks]

Thanks.

. . . sorry. I guess I'm going to be kind of useless this week.

Except for bleeding on everything.

[ hm. ]

It's fine. You can always get a wheelchair if you've gotta travel far.

Shadows gave me crutches.

[he pats them. trusty crutches!]

I'd rather use these. I'm more used to them, anyway.

Could do some damage with them too.

[ welp. this is their new week in camp. ]

You should eat something.

[SOUNDING

EXHAUSTED FROM WHEREVER SHE IS]

You're welcome!

[GIVES HER A THUMBS UP. . . head still resting on the table. yep]

[ANYWAY, ALL JOKING ASIDE, he does disrobe after he is done with his breakfast. the injury count is-- god. well]

[first are the bruises. there are several across his ribs, like he was kicked or punched there, and a few on his jaw as well. like he got hit in the face! these are all courtesy of one Akechi Goro, thanks. he also has a few gashes on his upper arms, deep and bleeding sluggishly, as well as one on his cheek (opposite the side of his injured eye). and then of course he is missing his right leg from the knee down, the wound still wrapped with sheets and towels]

[he looks like an utter fucking mess. the only wound from his time at the mansion that's still visible is the eye injury, which is also properly bandaged. the other bruises from earlier weeks are gone, replaced only by the bruises and cuts from the mansion]

[SO. THERE YOU GO]

[ good grief, everyone. he'll do a hand/foot/hair? check for good measure, but otherwise just takes notes on the rest and quickly helps wrap up any gushing wounds. ]

What on earth did you put yourself through?

[a bit forlornly]

Mirror maze. . .

[bad civilization]
