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!

"There's just somethin' about knowin' a chick could murder you but she chooses not to, y'know?" Something about the danger. Or maybe it's the protection? Sharky isn't opposed to being the small spoon, after all...

"Oh, for real? What did he do to piss her off?"

"I mean, I'm pretty sure my wife back home could've definitely murdered me a time or two, so I can't judge." Actually, he's pretty sure if he ever gets back there, she'll for sure just murder him again for all the trouble he's caused, but-- that's a problem for later.

"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.

"So you get me, then," he says, before he totally absorbs that factoid. Ah, shit, that would suck to have, like, a wife to go back to. This whole place would be kinda shitty if that were the case...

(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."

Yeah, he might get it a little bit. Although he did-- serve up some divorce papers a few months back, trying to protect her. Downside of having a chick who can kick your ass? They can also be a lot more stubborn and determined than you give them credit for.

"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?

Awww, man. Now he feels extra bad for trying to embarrass Steven for Ava's benefit. He should be uplifting the guy, not trying to mud-wrestle him.

"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.

The fact that there was mud-wrestling at all is kinda weird, buddy, but far be it for Steven to judge.

"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."

"Yeah, exactly. Enclosed spaces make grudges a death wish." Obviously, he's talking from experience.

"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?"

"Do they?" He's not big on reality TV, but he thought they had quite a few assholes on that show... but hey, he can't argue with the method. Mostly. Even if Marc is the opposite of chill, usually.

"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.

"I think so, but like, I'd need to rewatch to be sure." Not that he's gonna get a chance to do that. "But yeah, I think being chill is the only real way to handle any of this." The only other option is to go literally insane, and Sharky isn't big on that one.

"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!"

"Probably right." Although Marc has so little chill, he's probably likely to go insane than that. But-- he's not actively looking to cause shit either. Right now.

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?"

"Yeah, for sure." Sharky's pretty sure he's going to wind up staying up all night feeling like shit, so y'know, that could happen. "And uh, if you find some cooler of beer stashed away somewhere, you know where to find me!" It's by the fire. It's his happy place.

"Don't worry, buddy. You'll be the first to know."
