⇨ 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.

"That's why I asked instead of looking at it." It's definitely different if you openly share your wish.

Yuya absently pushes the back of the pen against his mouth as he stares at his own wish slip. Half a tag left, and no ideas. It's kind of embarrassing--he doesn't want to look back and see if there's a line forming behind him.

"I'll tell you mine." Once he... actually knows what it is. Is this just nosy?

[betheman]

Well as much as Yuuya asked, he's still going to grumble as he hides his.

And then, rather swiftly cram vines in his ears. "AUH-!! No!! That does not change my opinion Yuuya..!" he insists, shining red. "We are not going to look at each other's wish..!"

[hippocarnival]

Yuya's eyebrows raise up into his bangs. Gongenzaka's more traditional than he is, but it's still kind of funny watching him get so flustered about it. Yuya doesn't put the same stake in the reality of it, but he supposes he won't disrespect Gon's privacy.

"This is really serious to you, huh? That must be a really important wish if you won't risk it for anything." He grins, just a little teasing as he leans over to nudge Gon with his arm.

Then he winks. "Maybe you'l get lucky and it'll come true tonight!"

[betheman]

"Of course it is! It could well be real in some fashion or another!" he blurts without thinking- would he say it awake? Not quite like that, not at all. It would probably be more along the lines of, 'in another world, it could work like that', but this is a dream after all.

And slowly he finds himself uncovering his as he focuses more on Yuuya. "....Tonight..." He sighs, and nods. "Aaah... ...if such a wish could be true so quickly... ...it would be incredible.... ...Yours as well then, neh?" he adds, knowing full well that Yuuya's own wish isn't quite 'written' yet.

[hippocarnival]

Yuya nods once, watching Gongenzaka get briefly lost in the reverie of whatever it is he wished for. Well, he's curious, and he won't know, but he finds himself hoping that Gongenzaka's wish really does come true, too.

He glances aside to the wall with a faint smile. "I think I'm going to come back to it later. I don't know what to wish for yet."

Will he actually be allowed to after he already scribbled on one? Well, he can get his own paper if he has to--if he cares enough to. Either way he passes the pen on to the next person, so he doesn't continue having to stall the line and Gongenzaka's time any further. "Is yours finished?"

[betheman]

Gongenzaka looks his over...and with a nod, simply moves to tie his charm up onto the bamboo. "Aah- I, the man Gongenzaka, should think it is done. Perhaps we should get ourselves ready to return home now, with that in mind..."

There is an odd pause as he says this-and turns, looking to Yuuya. "Ah... ...I wonder...if perhaps, your wish..."

He doesn't get to finish that statement. Or perhaps he did, and Yuuya missed it, or forgot it, or...

....regardless, when they wake, the rest won't be there.
