WEEK 3

[petoskeymods]

WEEK 3

Another Sunday, another day to rest and recover after trial. The weather is now uncomfortably hot and humid after all the rain - perfect swimming weather, if what happened during the execution didn't put you off from swimming for a good long while.

As before, The RV's have changed, but it might not be the best idea to go and bother them after last week's...well, mistake. Maybe give it a week to rest. Additionally, if anyone tries to play the Wii, they will find that Chloe, Talcott, and Sayama's Miis have disappeared - as well that the machine itself is spitting out some strange music at the home screen and the Mii channel. The games seem unaffected by the musical change, at least - and there's now a copy of Mario Party 9 ready to be played alongside Wii Sports. Try not to murder each other or fling the wiimotes into the tv, alright?

The rest of the camp is the same as always, though now fishing equipment is always left out near the lake and beach, and there's a taped on sign on the slope railing declaring 'DO NOT LEAN ON.' Looks like they finally noticed the hazard that thing could potentially be. The kitchen has been fully scrubbed, the faint scent of lemon wafting in the air. Hm.

Two weeks have gone by, and with it, 6 of your fellow campers are gone. There are only six weeks left - six long weeks, and your chances of making it out dwindle all the time.

Knowing that, what will you do?

23 CAMPERS REMAIN.

Ain't octopuses supposed to be much smarter than fishes?

[Not so smart if they still manage to get caught, he thinks]

[finalguard]

I think so, yes. Handy with their legs, they can open jars and such.

[ He stares at Frank Luna the Second, who does not seem about to escape his tank with any amount of legs or other limbs. ]

[warmyyarny]

Then this gotta be some dumb octopus. What kind of smart animal lets itself get caught and unable to escape? [Oh well. But enough throwing shade at the poor octopus. Kanji sticks his hands into his pockets] If he's gonna stay around, then we better take responsibility. What does he eat?

[Apparently you're the defacto expert right now, Boa. Do you know? Or will they have to experiment with stuff from the kitchen?]

[finalguard]

Uh...

[ Wait, he's never even been to an aquarium!! What does he know about octopi....... ]

... they hunt, right? And that's underwater, so... fish? I assume small fish. Maybe clams?

[warmyyarny]

Clams? I dunno if we'll find clams anywhere. What kind of camp would have clams? So...fishes.

[Well good thing there's fishing equipment, eh?]

You up for some fishing?

[finalguard]

[ Boa just blinks at Kanji and his immediate thirst for action. He'd come in here for light chatter, how is he being dragged into octopus-care.........

..... but also, it's not like he has anything better to do. When there's no murder, camp is pretty boring, training aside. ]

Sure. That's one way to put what Stan taught us to use.

[warmyyarny]

[Of course Kanji would jump into action, buddy! He takes a fishing rod, his expression souring]

Tch. What, run away when the clouds of disease mosquitoes come by?

[Kanji is still a bit bitter about Stan abandoning everyone to the mosquito swarm, especially because that may have been the cause of everyone's problems in this camp]

[finalguard]

[ That makes Boa laugh dryly, as he takes a rod of his own and follows along. ]

Certainly the most useful part of that days lesson and he didn't think to share it with us ahead of time.

[ Thanks for nothing Stan. ]

[warmyyarny]

Yeah, that was a real jerk move from him. [Kanji inexpertly uses the fishing rod, the hook sinking through the surface of the water] ...but he's not so bad. I thought he'd be a pain in the ass, but he really's a good guy...

[And Kanji feels bad for him]

[finalguard]

He's as much as a victim of all this as we are, turns out, yeah.

[ He stills feels a bit conflicted about this realization. ]

Or he's a really talented actor, but that seems pretty unlikely by now.

[warmyyarny]

If he was an actor he'd have slipped by now, nobody's that good at actin'.

[...right?]

[finalguard]

Yeah... I don't feel comfortable being too trusting, but I can't really see him lying anymore at this rate.

[ Adults are lying snakes, but... Stan seems scarily genuine at all times. ]

[warmyyarny]

Besides, if we get him to help us, we're gonna be okay! He has all kinds of things stashed in his room, if we don't have to pay tickets anymore then we can get anythin' we need to fight back!

All we gotta do is make Pines snap out of whatever's got him!

[It's not that simple, but that definitely is an objective they should achieve, in Kanji's opinion]

[finalguard]

The problem is getting past Red.... If she catches wind that we're trying to wake up Stan, she'll definitely not take it well.

[ And if Stan wakes up, will he tell Red about that instantly? They're both counselors, it would make sense if they were each other's confidantes to some degree. ]

[warmyyarny]

What's she going to do, lock him away so he doesn't interact with us? Brainwashed or not, he's gonna think something's off if she keeps him away from everybody.

[Kanji sure hopes that old man won't let anything happen to himself, even if he's addled and unaware of the camp's true nature]

[finalguard]

She might punish us if we approach him the wrong way. You saw how she tossed Mitsuru away from it in the trial where he tried to show him Dan's finger.

I don't trust Red to not do worse things.

[warmyyarny]

...shit, man, way to remind me of that.

[Suddenly getting Stan to help them seems like a much more daunting task]

I mean, you're not wrong, but hearing it like that sure makes it seem impossible.

[finalguard]

I don't think it's impossible, we just... we have to be careful.

[ Which isn't exactly their strength, events of the last two weeks considered.... oh well. ]
