Dungeon Residential Camps, Somewhere, Friday

[not_a_whiner]

A strong wind tore through the hallways. Inside the camps, it was only audible: no breeze flicked into the large chambers themselves. Outside them, though, torches would flicker on and off on their own whim, exposing the dungeon's residents to errant grues.

There was something to be celebrated, though: when the maze shifted overnight, its paths crossed and connected all three camps. Time for a reunion.

[ camp one | camp two | camp three | ooc as of yesterday, everyone in camp 1 is free to assume they know about the first key and the vault. ]

"Ohhh." Well, yes, that sounded... both bad and pretty accurate. Still, he gave her a wry smile. "Well, for what it's worth, you made a really good Oprah. Feeling better?"

"Yes. Luckily it was only one bite," Jaina said. "And if I run into any more, I'm just going to start shooting."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

"That sounds like an excellent plan." No, really. They had enough trouble without gremlins. "So you're gonna head out again, huh?"

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[solo_sword]

She nodded. "There's at least one other camp and people have gone missing," she said. "Maybe I can find them, or just bring stuff back, but sitting around here drives me nuts."

"Yeah, I hear you," Mike agreed, scratching the back of his head. "It's getting ridiculous to be stuck here, anyway."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[solo_sword]

"What, you're not having fun here?" Jaina asked dryly.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[newroutines]

"No, ma'am." He clucked his tongue for further effect. "About ready to go home and see which jobs I got fired from for not showing up."

"I think anyplace in Fandom will write this off as extenuating circumstances," Jaina said.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[newroutines]

"Oh, it's not Fandom I'm worried about," Mike assured her, shaking his head. "I mean, I hope my boss isn't anywhere here, but I doubt she'd fire me for this. Anyone on the mainland, however..."

He hoped this didn't affect his reputation in the field of construction.

"If you need help convincing her, let me know," Jaina said after a pause. "If youarenot opposed to mind tricks, anyway."

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[newroutines]

"Uh, I think I might be." He looked curious, all the same. "You can do that?"

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[solo_sword]

She nodded. "I'm a Jedi. I tend not to do things like that unless I have to for ethical reasons, but again, extenuating circumstances."

"Think I'll be good without. But that is a pretty cool skill, though."

He was maybe starting to feel a little inferior with all these superpowered folks around. But it was okay, he had his strengths.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[solo_sword]

"There are better skills. Not that all of them are usable in here."

The fun thing about Jaina was that she was doing just fine without them, though.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

[newroutines]

"Haven't seen that stopping your from coming and going all the time." Yeah, he paid attention to who came and went. That seemed like a semi-useful thing to do. "Seem to be doing just fine."

Which was a very good thing, because they needed people like that.

Re: Camp Three - Main Space

"Yeah, it's just irritating," she shrugged. "Means I'll just beat up whoever's doing this even more when this is over."
