JUNE EVENT: CAMP
early on June 10th, Friday's morning announcements end with a request for everyone going on the latest excursion to meet her in the atrium. she seems in noticeably better spirits than she had been last time, and she leads them cheerfully to the tender. once they are all aboard, and the door is securely shut, the interior fills with gas, and, perhaps, their last thought before they slip into unconsciousness is "oh shit, not again."
passengers wake up on a rickety old school bus, driving down a dirt road surrounded by woods. what is it that they notice first? that, no matter what they were wearing before, they are now wearing a camp t-shirt and legitimately horrifyingly short shorts? the overstuffed backpack between their knees? the words "take one down and pass it around" dying on their lips? the fact that Friday is absolutely driving the bus?
or, maybe the fact that it's already slowing down, pulling up in front of a massive wooden sign, saying:
when they get out of the bus, Friday is the one to divide them up into their cabin groups, and she is the one to give the counselors their very official-looking clipboards and whistles. she explains that they are in charge, and that she will be back to pick them up in a week, and... very little else. she responds to nothing outside of whatever is on her unseen little script, and she gets back on the bus shortly after, leaving them there.
welcome to camp. let's make some summer memories!

You know, in case that comes up.
Oooh, hey, chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. Don't miiiiind if he does. "And if he doesn't already know where he's gonna sleep, I'm posted up by the fire. He can totally camp out there."
no subject
Even if it drives Marc kind of insane, not doing so.
"Yeah? I'll let him know. Otherwise, I guess I'm shoving him in my bed and taking the floor."
Not that he'd mind, but...
no subject
"It ain't so bad outside. Nicer than back home, at least. Safer, anyway. Kinda like a themed hotel stay or something, like a really weird Air BnB."
He's going to eat all of these cookies and get sick before he goes to sleep. Sugar is still better than nothing.
"Still, yeah, I guess it sucks that you're gettin' fucked over because of Ava. But I cannot stress this enough, dude, she is a total hottie, and she deserves like, the utmost respect. I think she's going through some serious shit, or something." Thinking, crazily enough, with his heart and not his dick. Mostly. Like, 70/30.
no subject
"Used to have to tough it outside. You get used to it. AT least this place isn't swarming with bugs and animals." So far anyway.
Marc finally grabs a bag of-- some kinda chips. It's not what he wants, but it's something to occupy himself with while they're here anyway.
The hottie comment earns a bit of a laugh. "Yeah, well, not debating that."
She is attractive, even if he's vaguely certain he recognizes at least familiar crazy in her. "Have you known her long?"
no subject
"Who, Ava? Nah, I'd never seen her before in my life. Boy, if only I'd shown up here 20 years younger, man, she'd basically be exactly my type. Kinda crazy, total disrespect for authority, the like, uhh, trace of a vulnerable side that only those truly close to her are ever gonna experience..." Damn, reminds him exactly of Jess, actually, now that he thinks about it...
"Oh my God, I totally had a crush on her," he realizes aloud, "That is so fucked up, how did I not realize that???"
no subject
Or, you know, you black out and disappear somewhere else for a few weeks. That could just be a Marc Spector problem though.
no subject
"Either way, the point is, never met her before. What about you? Sounds like you know what's up."
no subject
"Uh, met her back on the ship when she mistook me for Steven. She wasn't too happy with the guy."
no subject
"Oh, for real? What did he do to piss her off?"
no subject
"Criticized her taste in books?" It didn't sound as serious as they seemed to be making it, but you know what, he wasn't there and it's probably-- better to let them work out that between them.
no subject
(Or is it shittier when that isn't the case? Sharky sure doesn't know!)
"Oh, so, normal boring nerd stuff? Lame. Though, like... maybe you should let Steven know that chicks aren't into being criticized? Like, they fuckin' haaaate it. Negging does not work the way they say it will."
no subject
"Steven's-- the nicest guy I know. I don't think he probably-- meant it like it came out." He huffs out a laugh.
"Not sure the guy's ever even been on a date, let alone knows what negging is. But yeah, we're gonna have to work on how he talks to women, I think." And people in general?
no subject
"Yeah, might be a good idea to, like, brush him up on that shit. You really don't wanna make enemies outta the chicks on this ship. I mean, you don't wanna make enemies of anyone, ideally..."
But especially not chicks. Hot chicks who can phase through things doubly so.
no subject
"Considering we're all trapped on here until further notice? Probably not." Especially ones that were-- considered villains in their own world, probably. But Ava seemed... mostly harmless beyond the bite she had sometimes.
"Last thing we need is a lot of feuds going on between passengers."
no subject
"I'm just lookin' to be as chill as fuck with whatever happens. I figure most people on Survivor who make it are like that." He's watched two episodes of the show but you know, whatever, he's extrapolated.
"It'll be okay, though. He'll figure it out, right?"
no subject
"Yeah. He's better at adapting than he gives himself credit for." There's just going to be a bit of fussing and protesting along the way until he evens out.
no subject
"Okay. I'm gonna take these..." And also some of these, and that -- just grabbing a couple bags of junk food without actually caring about the contents. "...And probably go curl up in a ball next to the fire for a couple hours. Hopefully, I wake up without seizing, and then I'll know I'm good to go!"
no subject
He snorts as the other loads up on junkfood, grabbing a bit for himself. "Yeah, alright. Good luck with that, buddy. If you see Steven, send him my way, yeah?"
