camppetoskey | Week 8

WEEK 8

The weekend passes in a blue, and suddenly it is Monday again. Monday of week 8, the final week of camp. The last week to try and change your fate.

It's sunny and pleasant, with daytime temperatures lingering around 70 degrees Fahrenheit and dropping off into the 50s in the evening. It's pretty much the perfect weather for Michigan, and it's only a shame that it took this long to get to it.

The WiiU continues to be broken, though the creepy Mii is gone now. All of the Miis are, actually. All that can be seen is a variety of Pure Michigan ads, interestingly enough. A bit calmer than last week's visuals, but probably annoying since no games can be played.

There is one other notable change about camp: the counselors are nowhere to be found. There is plenty of food and some note left on how to run things, but otherwise the campers have been left to their own devices apparently.

On the main door to the lodge is a note that says "We will be back as soon as possible." written in Red's handwriting. What could this mean?

7 CAMPERS REMAIN.

[That give him pause. Makes him tilt his head a little curious before he grins at Nine.]

Don't tell me you waited all this time to tell me you like the scruff!

[ He gives almost a smile at that. Putting his arm across Tal's stomach to rest his hand on his waist to pull him against his side. ]

Maybe it's growing on me.

[ Just going to tuck his face against Tal's shoulder. Conceal don't feel. ]

[He almost leans his cheek on Nine's hair but then remembers there's cream on his face. So instead he reaches around him to give him a light squeeze. With his face against his shoulder Nine will no doubt hear the soft grind of stone on stone when he moves his arm though, the motion slower than natural, requiring a bit more effort because of his solidifying joints.]

Ren seemed to like it... I guess, since it's the last week, I can go a few days without. If that's what you want.

[ He hears it, and keeps his face there a little longer so he can wince without Talcott noticing. He knows they are doing their best. ]

Huh, does he? Guess I shouldn't be surprised. He really liked that raccoon, yo.

[ Ren will never live that down. ]

[Tal is happy to stay there for a few more moments but it's so natural to tilt his head, lay his cheek against Nine's hair, that eventually he has to move away with a soft laugh.]

Here lemme clean up.

[Gotta wash the shaving cream off his face. Unfortunately there are little tears in the remaining skin under the cream. He splashes water on his face and it seeps in under the skin, between skin and stone, making little pockets of fluid bulge along his jaw. Then he tilts his head for another splash and the water dribbles out the other side where a chunk was peeled away near his chin.]

And I really hope he doesn't like my beard because he has a thing for raccoons.

[ He can almost forget for a moment, and then Tal wants to clean up. Nine goes back to leaning against the sink, thinking he can get used to this.

But then he sees that. Wow...

This is going to be a scene after he gets out of the shower every morning, isn't it?

Rubbing the back of his head and then he hears Tal's words about raccoons. He would be laughing normally if everything else wasn't so terrible ]

I... yeah. You can always tease him about it anyways.

[Sadly it is, in fact, going to be a scene every morning until he runs out of skin. At least he still has that normal scar on his right cheek, the skin around it and his eye still intact on that side.]

Because we need more things to tease him about.

[Tal can still laugh, at least.]

He does make it easy, yo.

[ Rubbing his scar as he looks away. Then he'll be back with a smile for Sol!Cott. ]

It's cute seeing him react. [ A pause. ] Not as cute as Tal though.

It's sweet when you can catch him off guard and get a real reaction out of him, not just the bravado.

[He ducks his head, glances away, shy and oh if only there was enough of his skin left to blush.]

I dunno... Ren's awfully cute.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I like the bravado and that whole other side to him.

[ The conversation is a lot more easier then the rocking new look Tal has. ]

I like both, hey. Tal who gave me a reason to want to protect others and Ren who gives me a reason to smile.

That "other side" of him is fun, yeah.

[It's too bad Nine didn't see that feverish knife fight where Red almost iced them.]

And you give us a reason to laugh... and to keep pushing forward. [Fighting. He wanted to say fighting but there's only so much acknowledging the zombie can do.]
