[It's a lovely day in Louisiana: the sun is shining, the early spring blooms are threatening to assault everyone with surprise February pollen, and a very muscular, very shirtless young man is barreling through camp in a panic. Did he smack your shoulder? Run into you full-on?]

I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry excuse me. Sorry!

[It seems that camp has made a man out of someone...]

((Mulan and Shang are bodyswitched and will both be in the post :3
ETA: we're tiiiiiiiiiired. And will... probably? pick up. Late tags encouraged))

[Ken is outside the mess hall, pinning a paper to the bulletin board:

Valentine's Day Flower Orders
- drop off orders or contact Ken @ Mara House
- volunteers needed for deliveries
- consults available

Indeed, outside the Mara house there is a box marked "Flower Orders" with a hole slit in the top, and a few notepads beside it. Or you're welcome to knock on a door to speak to Ken yourself, if you need help deciding what to send.]


((ooc: order as many as you like! i'll be answering comments after work, and the post will go up on the 14th. if you'd like to volunteer someone for delivery duty, please let me know!))

[THERE ARE MANY BIRDS STARING AT YOU. Many many... MANY birds]


. . .

[All the lights are on aboard ZEX's Intruder. The techno music is at a reasonable volume, for once. The snacks smell great. "What's the occasion?" You may well ask.]

Good to see I haven't lost my touch!

I am glad! I am thrilled to know you get such pleasure out of playing with your Wii, Master Kazuki."

[ZEX just got a Wii for Kazuki. You are invited to play--but please, just step over the little fence in front of the entrance. We don't want ZEX's new pet baby anteater to face the horrible Camp wild just yet.]

((You can be transported here magically, come here out of your own free will, and/or mingle--whatever you like! Playing with one's Wii isn't very serious business, but it sure is fun.))

[So if you were watching the Super Bowl (or the Puppy Bowl for those who like to indulge in cuter entertainment) you may have noticed a commerical. If you haven't, maybe surfing around the internet allowed you to glimpse this brief clip. It almost looks like some familiar campers if you tilt, squint and don't think about it too hard. And if that association didn't give it away, their reactions might.]

Ha! It's as if the Ember Island Players decided to stage a comedy!

*There is a boy at his laptop in the mess hall taking a very important internet quiz*

I don't know the answers to these questions for any of the people I'm thinking of.

[today, outside your cabin (yes, your cabin), there is a puppy chasing his tail. he is trying so hard, but can't seem to catch it! round and round...]

Rrrrrrr... Damn you--!

[Gorillas! Gorillas running everywhere, stripping off various pieces of women's clothing as they go and tossing them to the ground. Like that one that was somehow wearing three-inch heels as earmuffs or that one wearing a bra as a belt -- which it is now ridding itself of.]

[It's almost like they're fleeing. Perhaps it's from that person in one of those plastic suits that seems to be common in camp. That person does seem to be chasing them.]

Return those clothes to me!

[Better watch out for that gorilla wearing a skirt as a hat. Looks like he's coming your way!]

*a sign appears above your head. it looks something like this:

EVIL------X------GOOD*

Hey! I'm better than that!

*EVIL---X---------GOOD*

[Morality meters may or may not be accurate but they sure are hard to get rid of.

I have eight more pages to write by tomorrow. Keep me company. ;;

edit You're all lovely but I've hit the page limit and am passing out. I'll pick up anything I need to tomorrow! back Class! (and again!)]

[SUDDENLY THERE IS A LOUD ROAR. FROM EVERYWHERE.]

Saints won, can you believe it?!

[There is a tall, leggy brunette walking slowly towards the fabled center of camp. She does not look happy.]

I didn't think it was possible to look this ridiculous.

((OOC: Crashing for the night! Will pick up threads again tomorrow. Back!))

[Today, outside the SEES dorms, is a young man in brightly colored pants. He is playing the violin, and it is the most heart-wrenching song you've ever heard. The energy builds and crashes, high to low, fast to slow, louder, softer. Like waves. Like someone sobbing.

It is the song of his heart.]

Hey. What's something you really appreciate? More than anything else?

[ today, the food in the mess hall was made by airi. every table has this set on the top of it. ]

Please enjoy.

[ ooc winding down, will probably pick up threads later ]

[on THIS side of the lake, a small boy watches his mini warship get mangled by lake monster tentacles]

I'LL KICK YOUR ASS NEXT TIME!

[... only to run away as one comes up to the shore after him, but he throws a rock at it anyways.]

[Near the lake, a soaking wet girl is clambering onto the dock as she coughs and spits out water. She looks like she might need some help.]

Ugh, bad Marcy!

((slowing down for the night! Will pick up threads new and old tomorrooow!))

[What a beautiful night! The stars are shining, the lake is acting as the camp night-light, and the zombies are still trying to crawl around while half-frozen. . . Ahh, how lovely. ♥]

Ah, ahh, no! Come ba—. . . Ck.





. . . Sorry.

[Please, don't let the open thermos of hot tea falling off the roof of a cabin disturb your night.]

[[AND OUT! I will return tomorrowww.]]

[Exhibit 1: One thought-to-be-lost black cat scurrying through camp, with a trail of bandages behind him and a tiny portion cinched in his teeth.

Exhibit 2: Appearing at least five or ten minutes behind the cat. One heavily limping young man, holding a bloody shoulder and looking pale enough to pass out.]

... Arthur...

[As you go about your potentially blind date-filled day today, some people might feel a bit more watched than usual...but there's no one around. Or is there?

Plus, it's the wrong season for the trees to be flowering, isn't it?]

((Same as before, if anyone remembers, although I will probably be running this a lot less because of my attention span and rogue notifications ETA ...probably derping out for new threads, at least for now. Mingle! ETA II I will also be unexpectedly pulled away for the next hour or two :'())
