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:


 

 

 

 

 

CAMP AION


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!

The Moon Freak - Ebalon - was definitely gleeful. And I know at least one person who fought for bragging rights.

[Ugh, Jinx. She wanted to prove she's strong or some other bullshit, and now she won't leave him alone because he had the misfortune to survive when she didn't.]

Besides, "not dying painfully" is probably a benefit. Not to mention some people assume there are no consequences, because we come back.

[ Malcolm commits that name to memory. He wonders why he's called 'the moon freak'. ]

I haven't died, but I'd imagine that it's still traumatic, regardless of whether it's painful or you regenerate. There may be no consequences with the captain, but there are other types of consequences.
