WEEK 1

WEEK 1

After the hectic happenings of the weekend since you awoke here, the first official week of Camp is much...well, Calmer. Days are full of genuinely fun summer things - such as doing arts and crafts in the Rec Room (the theme this week is 'Macaroni', so expect plenty of cardboard picture frames and other assorted kitschy stuff scattered on the tables), playing the fully working Wii ( Which even has a Mii for all the campers! Aww, how sweet), going swimming, fishing, playing some games with the many balls set out in the clearing with your fellow campers, eating a good meal with your friends down at the meal hall, and of course roasting marshmallows over an open flame and singing to the stars at night.

The weather is absolutely beautiful, the heat and humidity giving way to cooler-yet-still-comfortable temperatures, and everything is absolutely picturesque.

But...of course, you're probably thinking more on all of the revelations over the past weekend. Being forced to stay in this camp by methods both based in reality and myth, the eeriness of the people who claim to be your counselors during your stay here, the mosquito thing, how Pastor Dan never stops smiling -

Speaking of Pastor Dan, while he's never gotten as overt as he did during the weekend, his sermons are...odd, to say the least. You won't be able to go swimming without listening to them, and as the week goes on, he goes from talking about harmony and unison and being in the Lord's embrace to really hammering home how sometimes, sacrifices must be made for the good of them all, and how you can't hesitate when it comes to make a decision...

A thin, fragile layer of peace hangs over the camp...for now.

But how long will it be until it shatters?

28 CAMPERS REMAIN.

[He stares at Eddie with a woozy look in his eyes...

And lays his head back down with a whimper. "Gonta doesn't feel good" is what he probably meant.]

[itsagazebo]

Fuck... [He rushes over, pressing a hand against the other boy's forehead] Shit! Fuck, shit you're burning up!

[yunolikebugs]

[Yes, he can feel that.

He gently nudges Eddies hand with his head. Please comfort him, friend.]

[itsagazebo]

[Eddie isn't sure what to do... Gonta's a kid, not a dog... but he's kind of acting like a dog. He hesitantly gives Gonta's hair a stroke. He remembers his ma doing that for him one of the times he was sick in bed and couldn't sleep.]

Hey, uh. maybe sleeping on the ground isn't the best thing for you. Which cabin are you in?

[yunolikebugs]

[Now he's kind of growl-purring. He likes the head pats.

When Eddie asks, Gonta looks up at him for a moment before nodding his head in the direction of Cabin 2.]

[itsagazebo]

[Okay, then. He continues the head pets with a bit of a smile]

You think you can stand?

[yunolikebugs]

[He wearily nods before slowly getting up on his... Hands and feet.

This is the best you're getting, Eddie.]

[itsagazebo]

[Yeah okay. He keeps a hand on Gonta's head, staying close by his side]

C'mon. Let's get you in bed.

[He gestures toward the cabin and takes a step in that direction]

[yunolikebugs]

[He slowly lumbers on by Eddie's side, his head wearily hanging down. Occasionally, there's a stumble, but he gets back up and continues.]

[itsagazebo]

[Eddie helps him whenever he can. He may be much smaller than Gonta, but he'll do his best to keep him upright. Slowly but surely they make it to the cabin. Eddie opens the cabin door, holding it open]

Can you make it inside?

[yunolikebugs]

[He tries his best not to crush the small child.

At the door, Gonta makes a sound that kind of sounds like a mumbled "yes" noise before trudging along inside...

And falling asleep on one of the bean bags.]
