UNSANCTIONED CAMPING

This is almost certainly a bad idea, but when faced with the arrival of family members the next day, who doesn't need to relieve a little stress? After curfew, some students slip out to the wooded area between Azurcrest and the sorting cave. There's a scattering of tents, and in the middle a campfire blazes.

The mood isn't as wild as a Grotto party, and most of the entertainment is found in sitting, talking, and drinking. Alcohol is available in reasonable amounts, enough for everyone to have a drink or two (or three if you really need it).

» Around the fire: The forest doesn't have the same warming effect as the Grotto, but it feels very... normal? Just woods and trees and the hoot of an owl. Are you relieved, or do you feel lonely?

» BERTIE BOTT'S EVERY FLAVOUR BEANS: Someone got their hands on a family sized bag of these imported sweets. At first, it's just taken to be candy, but as the truth about these jelly beans is fully understood, it becomes a spectacle.

There's a group of students sitting in a circle, passing the bag around. The idea is that you take one, and then everyone waits in anticipation for your reaction. (Let's be real, they're all hoping you get earwax or cigarette ash.) You must then guess what it is before passing the bag to the left.

In game terms, this means reply to the root comment, and we will use RNG to pick out a flavor for you. You can then write your character's reaction and attempt to identify what they just put in their mouth.

Official results for your random flavor could come from Diego (morale), Sy (stokers), or the mod journal (goosemods).

» The Tents: The magically warmed tents make another appearance. They're filled with pillows and blankets and should be pleasant to sleep in.

» The Morning: In the early hours of the morning, students (hopefully) begin to sneak back to their campgrounds, and (maybe) avoid the eyes of vigilant prefects.

» Did you get in trouble?: If you did, reply here. The punishment will be two nights of detention starting Monday, and a loss of 10 house points per student. Visiting parents will also find out about the indiscretion.

» OOC: Questions, comments & concerns.

BERTIE BOTT'S PERMISSION: GHOST PEPPER

One of the flavors on this list is Ghost Pepper, one of the hottest peppers in the world. It's gonna hurt. It will probably ruin the unlucky character's evening for a couple hours, and make even the most stalwart teenager shed tears and stuff snow in their mouth. It has over one million scovilles.

Rather than springing this on someone unexpectedly, if you're alright with your character potentially getting this flavor, reply to this comment. Otherwise, I'll reroll it and you won't have to worry about having this inflicted on your character!

We briefly considered Carolina Reaper but we don't want to have to run anyone to Mufferaw.

Once. we went to this brewery we like, and they made this special beer with like 5 ghost peppers in the batch and I forget how much that is, but it's like 300 gallons or something. And I drank my sample size cup, and every burp after that was like how a dragon must feel when it breathes fire. Like, "I'm not actually injured, but still ow." It gave me the worst heartburn.

BUT SURE CHLOE CAN BE IN THE RUNNING. THAT'S WHAT I CAME HERE TO SAY.
