Here, here, here we go

[monoguests]

[You want to know what kind of sleep you had? Quite frankly, it doesn't matter, not when it's interrupted by the sound of a cuckoo clock. When you're awake enough to look over and see what woke you up, you can see a small bear figurine popping in and out o- wait, what? It suddenly occurs to you that this isn't at all where you went to sleep last night.

But...it's nice enough. It's a wooden cabin, and seems to have been decorated with neat matching furniture. Your rather small bed is flanked by the cuckoo clock, and which for the life of you, you can't figure out how to shut off...which doesn't matter much when it stops a few moments later regardless. The time reads 7 AM, which might very well be far too early for your tastes.

When you actually start to look around a bit, you may or may not find one personal object on a nearby dresser, but more importantly, you might eventually notice is a small device somewhere on your person. If you can figure out how to work it, pressing the screen will reveal a profile containing information about yourself, and scrolling down reveals several different ones for strangers. It only serves to raise more and more questions - just what is is going on?

Suddenly, without warning, a screeching sound interrupts the last of whatever peace you might have had, and a voice blares out throughout the entire camp:]

Rise and shine, campers! Please make your way to the Mess Hall by 8 AM sharp!

[There's another screeching sound, and...music begins to play. It's not loud enough to drown out your speaking, but it's annoying, especially when you take into consideration that it doesn't stop playing. Ever. It just keeps repeating. Background music! It seems to be coming from the loudspeaker in the middle of the camp, and does generally get quieter the further you move from in. In addition, you'll find that the music seems to disappear entirely when you enter some buildings - such as the Theater and the previously-mentioned mess hall.

Speaking of which? When you finally exit your cabin, you'll find your feet meeting a cobblestone path - and down this path are more and more cabins. Going beyond the path, you'll find that nearly all the ground in the area is grassy, but luckily, there are a few dirt paths here and there to help you get to where you need to go. If you ignore the oddities, like the giant stone walls that surround the camp or the constantly-burning bonfire? It's almost kind of serene.

The sun is shining, and it's a lovely day for camping. It's time to mix and mingle.]

[Ashley, despite the rude awakening and the potential screaming reactions of her fellow green-hatted mustachoied plumber-like campers, actually manages to wake up to all these interruptions with a sense of grace and dignity. She gazes around her room, any interest in the situation fading quickly. This place is far too kitsch to command her attention.

But she does seem vaguely interested when that voice blasts through the camp. It's this that cements her notion that this isn't a spell-gone-wrong, but perhaps something she should actually worry about.]

...Hm.

[She does get dressed - despite what her song might tell you, she respects herself enough to not go out in her sleepwear. Her dress gets slid on and her hair ends up in a pair of twintails, and she makes her way out of the cabin.

Oh, and look, there's her stuffed rabbit! She's just going to...take that with her. It didn't sleep with her last night, Ashley has to make up for lost time.

When Ashley walks out and about, her wandering is more aimless than anything else. She walks out and about and takes plenty of mental notes regarding where and what everything is, but eventually, you'll run into a creepy little girl with death in her eyes. She points at you with one hand, the other clutching the plushie to her side.]

You. You are to tell me exactly where I am. Now.

[superstylishschism]

*An hour until the deadline to meet the mysterious voice, an hour to explore. Ashley will find a winged man in spandex and armor, looking quite frustrated by the time she asks him where they are.*

Would if I could, but I'm clueless. It's not anywhere I've ever seen...

[totaldrag]

Peachy.

[Ashley is not pleased about any of this. In the slightest, actually, in case you couldn't tell by her tone of voice.]

[superstylishschism]

Yeah, just magnificent. It looks like some sort of cheesy camper movie, but the walls make it feel more like a prison...

[green_mario]

[Hey now, Luigi hasn't screamed once yet; he can take care of himself!

However seeing another person, especially someone he doesn't recognize doesn't help the millions of questions he has in his head right now.

But he doesn't want to ignore her because A) That would be rude and B) She kind of looks like the kind of kid who would attack him is he ignored her. So he awkwardly looks around a little before answering, as if he will instantly know everything by another look-around.]

Is... this a camp?

[Does he win?]

[totaldrag]

[...GOD.]

Yes. It's a camp. Congratulations. Somebody hand the man a prize.

[green_mario]

[Luigi feels his heart sink as this little girl insults him. Great that wasn't the type of question she was asking, was it?]

S-sorry, I don't know what's-a going on. I just-a woke up here a few minutes ago!

[fitnessenthusiast]

[Wow, a little girl. Its really heartening to see people of all ages so eager to exercise.]

Hello there! Ready work out today?

[totaldrag]

No.

[Quick, straight and to the point.]

[fitnessenthusiast]

[...She didn't know that was even an option in conversations. She stares in confusion for a long moment before smiling again.]

Train every day and keep aiming for a toned waistline.

[Encouragement will help enlighten her young mind.]

[hopelessnecromantic]

[Yeesh, creepy is right. There's a reason Betrayus doesn't like kids.
Well, besides the fact a teenager is keeping him from conquering his home planet. He gives Ashley an awkward, unsure, and slightly unnerved look.]

Believe me, I'd tell you if I knew!

[Guess he's not the only one who found himself here without explanation.]

[totaldrag]

Then find out.

[She's not even intimidated by his appearance. Sorry, Bets, you're getting the same treatment as everybody else.]

[hopelessnecromantic]

[ANNOYED HUFF.]

What do you think I'm trying to do!?

[He mutters under his breath.]

Little brat...

[stabspeople]

[...Okay, this girl is way too close to his personal space already. Immediately, Lon'qu takes a panicked step back.]

I cannot tell you what I don't know.

[totaldrag]

Then go figure it out.

[PIERCING GAZE.]

[stabspeople]

[He was trying to do that anyway, but...]

You expect me to take orders from you?

[tsungeonsanddragons]

[And now there is one young girl glaring daggers at her. Great. This is totally what she needs right now. Letting out a huffy sigh, Clair folds her arms tightly against her chest and shoots the younger girl a less intense glare.]

That I don't know. Same as everyone else here, unfortunately, though not from lack of trying.

[At least, she assumes people were trying? She's investigating, so obviously everyone else would be, what with her being a trendsetter and all.]

[totaldrag]

Funny. I haven't seen anyone try anything.

[Shs's a bossy little girl, Clair. This is the norm.]

[tsungeonsanddragons]

Didn't you just get out here? That might have something to do with it.

[Not that any of them had much time to explore, Clair included, but you know. She's not about to be talked down to by a little girl. Too late.]

[chaoscontrol]

[Well that's the first time he's had answers demanded from him by a cute little girl with a stuffed animal. At least with so much force and vitriol. He only looks taken aback for a moment]

If I knew, I would have already left. ... I take it you too woke up in a different place than you went to sleep.

[totaldrag]

I wouldn't bother talking to you if the situation was different.

[She does enjoy his color scheme, though! He's absolutely the cutest camper besides her. A+ job on looking cuddly, Shadow.]

[chaoscontrol]

[A+ color choices and surly attitude. This sharp egde is Shadow Approved.

And he may look cuddly, but it's probably not a good idea. His quills aren't just for show. Probably. Maybe

Straight to the point. He likes this girl]

What was your location prior to waking up here?

[shslancer]

[Hello, this small child is more demanding than the Empress even was when she was younger. Or now, for that matter. The matter-of-fact way the young one asks her that kicks any thought of saying how cute she looks out of Nephenee's head. Head tucked in a bit, she stammers out an answer in a voice that's sweet and soft, and very country.]

U-uh...Ah'm...afraid Ah don't...know where we are, miss...Ah'm l-lost too...

[Anxiety: 1, Nephenee: 0, Small Scary Child: 1]

[totaldrag]

Stop with the stuttering. It's annoying.

[shslancer]

[Hahaha, Oh Ashley. Way to make her feel worse. She shrinks back a little.]

A-Ah'm sorry...A-Ah'm jus'...real nervous...it's...jus' somethin' that...happens...when Ah do.

[She's trying...but mostly all that's happening is she's trading repetitive stuttering for block stuttering.]
