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!

Some religions believe in them.

[He shrugs.]

I don't know if they really exist, but I'm sure the captain's heard of the concept and decided he likes it.

… He does like those fictional books. Have you read any of them yet? Have any of them had gods in them?

[ Admittedly, Mizuki hasn't been too diligent on reading them himself, if just because he's got his face pressed into his own manga. Maybe the Captain would like those, too? ]

I've been reading nothing but horror and murder mysteries since I got here. Figured it counts as research, but - [He makes a face. When Natsuno first realized people back home were rising from their graves, he tried to find answers in books and movies. It felt ridiculous, but some of it was helpful.] nothing useful so far. Maybe I'm not reading the right books.

[He missed Battle Royale, after all.]

Some of the horror stories have gods, but - I don't think they're something the captain wants to be. They're more like the creepy void he has inside of him.

…Maybe he's not going for the horror god vibes? I mean, he sort of acts like what I imagine a spoiled rotten 9-year-old with magic powers would act like.

[ Not that he's met many spoiled rotten 9-year-olds, but he knows very solidly what they act like. He's read Willy Wonka, he knows!!! ]

You give him too much credit. He's mentally five at best.
