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!

[ so, this too is understandable, surely a total beginner and newbie wouldn't hit the target first try. but maybe he'd kind of been hoping, as if drawing some kind of unconscious relation between the target and... them, their relationship...
he rocks back on his heels, lets out a breath, tries to relax a little more. giving space is fine. trying to slowly win back trust or forgiveness is fine. they hopefully have time, if this really is a summer camp and won't devolve into some killing game unexpectedly later. ] In that case, it might just be practice. I could give tips and suggestions on stance and positioning, but the best way to improve is simply to shoot and hands-on experience, over and over again. It certainly isn't an easy skill, but that's the best way to improve at anything hm?
[ hm, like... he remembers mizuki teaching him CPR. that proobably is something a little less easy to practice with, so if he tried saving someone for the first time he might panic and mess things up, but he could hope he's remembered enough information to be even a little useful than completely not. ]
