⇨ CAMPING GROUNDS

[ringleaders]

Who: Everybody!
When: Day 64
Where: The Camping Grounds
What: While the Ringmaster attempts to purge the carnival of magical tracing spells and deal with the angry fire fae in her belly, everyone else is getting sent on an emergency camping trip with some unusual local fauna.
Warnings: Camping.

CRYPTIC CAMPGROUNDS↴ You're given about three hours to prepare, after the Ringmaster tells you her plans for the coming week. There is a vast selection of camping equipment at your disposal, and the means to take along enough food for the length of the stay. The wilderness of the planet you're left on is nearly idyllic, but some people just don't like the great outdoors. ► CRYPTOZOOLOGY: As it turns out, the carnival won't be alone here. There is a varied ecosystem of cryptids to be found as well, living in relative peace and mostly reacting to the newcomers with curiousity. More details can be found on the plotting post. You are free to NPC the cryptids as much as you need to, as long as you stick to the behaviours described. ► DREAMSHARING: There is a player plot going on which will allow characters to share dreams! These are specifically more dreams than nightmares, and the mushi-adept characters will be here to help. ► CHILLAX: There isn't any plot twist for this setting, so this is mostly an opportunity to decompress from the last plot and get ready for the future. The Ringmaster will show up occasionally to help with needed medical treatments and check on things, but won't stick around for long.

Though Ginko has noticed Alphys around, he supposes he hasn't really talked to her much. Now, though, it, uh... seems like she might need some help.

He heads over and examines the mess with a concerned frown. "...I take it you're having some trouble?"

Alphys is just laying in the pile of tent, having give up on it. And life in general.

"It won't work." She groans.

Rest in peace Alphys, killed by outdoor activities. Ginko crouches down next to her, doing his best to keep from sounding too amused.

"How long have you been trying to get it set up? These things can be kind of tricky." Ginko at least had the advantage of having to make shelters for himself before, but... working with these poles and fabric and all that still took some adjustment.

[textsfromhotland]

"Like...FOREVER." It was maybe fifteen minutes. "These instructions don't make any sense! And I swear there aren't enough poles!"

[dontpokethat]

"Can I see? I dunno if I'll get it, either, but it might be worth a shot to get another eye on it."

Just the one, of course.
