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. |

I believe in you.
[sorry ash!!! but she'll hold her arms out if he insists on inspecting? she's taken to wearing more modern dresses, but it's snowing so he can probably only really see her bandaged wrists. i. did he ever take his jacket back? if he didn't she wore that to the mess hall i hate snow.]
Knife dragged down my face?
[casually,]
no subject
You shouldn't. I keep swinging and missing.
[ i'm saying he didn't because you said that. he's specifically taking a hold of her hand (!) and turning it over to look at the bandages on her wrist. ]
...
'Course it did. No chance you could've dodged?
no subject
[but this is killing me - and she's just. going to fluster a little when he takes her hand? hello? what is this.
her wrist is super bandaged and the visible skin around it looks agitated because sometimes you are bound as you drown and fight for your life and still die.
BUT SHE IGNORES IT AND JUST KEEPS RESPONDING]
Not in that moment, no. If I could've, I would've.
.... you know I really am okay, right? You don't need to worry so much. [WHY IS HE STILL CHECKING HER INJURIES]
no subject
this is ash getting a closer look at her bandages. it's fine. ]
I know. Still, given that you only got kinda bitten this time around I hadn't figured you got this messed up last time.
[ he sure is. unsure about those wrist marks, lili.
damn is this what she and kara are into?]no subject
that said, she seems to pause at that. oh. she didn't...
. . . . ]
There was a - rope? That suppressed the corruption when it manifested in someone, but it wasn't able to eliminate it. So... they tried to bind me with it, so I could get back to myself.
But there wasn't any cleansing items left, and I didn't want anyone to get involved, so I... made a bridge into the ocean and...
[hm.]
When I was drowning, I was trying to get free. Probably from some automatic response to wanting to live. I tried to conjure a knife from ice, but it didn't...
[cut. or help.
so her wrists are
rubbed pretty raw.]
no subject
...
You never mentioned the corruption thing got you too.
[ it's not accusatory, it's just a statement. but... yeah, if he relates that to people turning into monsters in the mansion, he can kinda fumble through how that sort of thing worked and how he feels about it.
no one he was super close to got hit by the monster thing back in the mansion, so. this is whole new thing. ]
And that's when the shark thing happened, huh?
no subject
so she just looks up at ash, expression a bit concerned - and... partially sheepish.]
... you didn't ask?
[weak defense and she knows it.]
Mm. The ice broke and there was a shark that someone else in the village was feeding so...
[that's how she went out. a combination of shark bite and drowning.]
... I'm okay now....
[so clearly! no need to worry!]
no subject
...
Apart from the bit where all your wounds have reappeared, but y'know? Sure. You're okay.
no subject
[STOP MAKING HER FEEL BAD]
And I'm alive!
no subject
Try and keep it that way.
no subject
so she'll use her free hand to reach up and tap him on the forehead. revenge.]
Worry less about me.
no subject
Nah, I'll worry just enough. Seeing as you keep getting into trouble.
no subject
I'd love it if everything went perfectly according to my plans and I never had to worry about getting cursed or tied up!
[THESE THINGS KEEP
HAPPENING THOUGH]
no subject
[ rip in fuck, lili. ]
