Gooseberry High

[Casper/Riley]
They. Outside. I ran. Oh god. They found me. They know. He was there. He. What. Help

[Azurcrest Girls]

GUESS WHO GOT A DATE TO THE DANCE~ It's me. GUESS WHO I'M TAKING? Guess.

Unless you were on the camping trip, then no spoilers.

ANYWAY, what's everyone going as for Halloween? I was thinking of going as the Mad Hatter if anyone wants to join me on an Alice theme. I'll have to see who HHhHEeeEeeeEEEEee is going as first though.

[Cecil]

WHAT'S YOUR COSTUME GONNA BE? We should coordinate.

[Chris]

WHO ARE YOU ASKING TO THE DANCE? I don't think Trixie's been asked yet.

[Supernatural Enthusiasts: Micah & Robin & Solo]

So no LGK sightings but Thorn and Convington looked rattled after Bayou Boy was found outside of his tent with his sleeping bag.

[Warded to Addy, Ree, and Levi*]

THE MANIAC IS OUTSIDE AGAIN AND NOW WE HAVE A PASSWORD ON OUR CABIN IF YOU WANT TO PLEASE COME CUDDLE GET IN & CUDDLEPILE YOU HAVE TO SAY BURY THE TOOTH OF THE HYDRA AND THE SKELETON ARMY WILL ARISE.

[Warded to Cecil]

PAPA THE KNIFE MASK GUY CHASED KATYA ACROSS THE CAMPUS HE CHASED HER ACROSS THE CAMPUS

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M ASKING YOU TO DO BUT

PROTECT US PAPA BIRD? also i think she's going to hurt herself if she keeps FREAKING OUT LIKE THIS and there are no other prefects that I even trust to help and

* basically people who are likely to need to get into the jr azurbabes dorm or be invited in, if i forgot you I'M SORRY I'LL ADD YOU

[Warded to Ebonhide Junior Girls dorm]

I do hate to be a bother but I was very poor in my timing to return back from the library. If you hear a knock on the door please do not panic, it is only me. Perhaps we should have worked out some sort of password. I shall yell my name before I enter the dorm so I am not hit with a panicked hex. I do know things are quite stressful.

And if anyone else needs to walk back to camp please do let me know soon, I am about to leave the lodge.

That reminds me: CALVIN are you coordinating costumes with me or NOT, because if not I gotta ~make a move~ and shit.

Let's set some traps, Wing.

[Warded to Levi]

I'm gonna go looking for a guy with a knife.

[Ivy]
You're fine right ??
I mean I don't think there's actually a dude with a knife

But

[Warded to Cecil]

Okay, Riley has to stay with Katya who's having a panic attack, and honestly I don't think Essie should be in there anyway. It'd just scare her more. I'd go be with her but I'm trying to check around the campsite and trails.

So, uh, I'll ask you what I asked Riley: please look after my little sis and convince her no one is dying, especially not me. You're my number one guy, xoxoxoxo

It's not long before Laurel returns to Azurcrest with Mr. Calderon-Boot at her side. He can't stand these pranks, and by the time he arrives he's quite agitated. However, as soon as he reaches the campsite, he takes a deep breath, pats Laurel on the shoulder, and regains his composure.

A few things are going to happen:

• He quickly lights the fire pit in the middle of the campground.


• He's going to go to each cabin individually, and ask the students to come out to the fire pit and sit down. He asks Cecil, Quinn and Jesse to help gather everyone. He also asks that they call in all of the vigilantes that ran off to find the perpetrator.


• The exception will be the junior Azurcrest girls' dorm. He'll try to coerce Katya to come down to Healer Mufferaw's with him, where she will be given a calming draught and can stay the night. He asks Riley to help by gathering her things, and says that Riley may come and stay with her.


• Before going, he gives a quick talk to the gathered Azurcrests, saying Merrill will be on his way. He wants the prefects to do a head count before he arrives.

[OOC: Because of tonight's reaction, we may need to do revisions to this month's plot calendar. The mods are currently discussing what to do, but please be aware. If things do change, we'll compensate anyone whose character is affected because they claimed a Lake Gooseberry Killer slot on the plot calendar. ♥]

[EDIT: All future events relating to the LGK plot have been suspended. Your mods are working on figuring out what to do to handle current plot developments, so please forgive us if the game has a momentary lull!]

[Warded to Diego]

DIEGO WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING.

[Warded to Ebonhide]

Is everyone alright?

Where is Maggie when we

Hi.

Tonight feels crazy and I hope things calm soon.
Till then:
If anyone wants to just chat about inane things or
write a story over the journals together or
maybe I can do some (lighthearted) readings or something --
Let me know. x
It might help to get some of this group energy focused elsewhere.

[Warded to Mina]

Everyone in Azurcrest is freaking out because the KILLER GUY is near our camp and for some reason Diego thinks HE NEEDS TO GO FIND HIM and he isn't listening to me when I told him he was BEING DUMB. YOU NEED TO YELL AT HIM TO STOP BEING STUPID. I KNOW YOU DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE.

Everyone, it's past curfew, so please stay in your cabins. Your own cabins where your personal bed is. If you're already somewhere else, please let your house prefects know where you are. Basically, everyone should be in a cabin. Stay put. This will make it easier for prefects to do head counts and make sure everyone is safe and accounted for.

This is for everyone's safety.

There is no vengeful ghost, there is no Killer of Gooseberry Lake. What there is is some asshole jerk who thinks this is all hilarious. Still, we don't need rogue bands of Killer hunters and lone investigators sneaking out of their dorms and hexing the crap out of each other thinking they've got the culprit. Even if you were to catch the "killer" we don't need you doing serious harm to a person who is in all likelihood one of our students.

Stay in your dorms with your dorm mates. Safety in numbers. Horror movies prove it.

[Prefects]

We'e got to get this under control. This is getting seriously out of hand, and someone's going to get hurt. Possibly the prankster. And as pissed off as I am, I don't want anyone to get seriously injured, even the culprit.

[Rafael]

I know I just said people shouldn't go rogue, but Thoughts?

[Warded to Rafael]

I'm crashing at Levi's tonight.

I'm supposed to let you know, and since you'll notice if I don't, so now you know.

Please, everyone, stay in your cabins. If you are visiting another House's cabin, please stay inside their cabin and let a prefect know which house you are in. We're currently conducting head counts.

Do not attempt vigilantism.

[Prefects + HB/G]

Head count?

We've three missing and unaccounted for from Ebonhide.* Ribbonfin, we've one of your Freshmen at our camp. Please don't send them home on the dark trials. If they are in your cabins, they can stay there until morning.

Volunteers for patrol to find the others that remain unaccounted for after camp-wide headcount?

Volunteers to take up extra nightly patrols in the weeks following? It's not safe and we need to double up. I don't want to force anyone to patrol the trails if they're not comfortable. This is strictly voluntary. If you're no longer comfortable with nightly patrols, please let us know. I will find cover your shifts until the person doing this is found.


((* keeping this purposefully vague in case anyone wants to say their character was out of their dorm))


[The list is filled as others volunteer.]
