Day 222 — Mandatory activity mingle
[ It's a wonderful, stormy day here in Squall Asylum and vacation time is officially over! Your gracious overlords have worked out a light itinerary for you today and they expect you to keep it.

Get in line to pick up your food rations for the day. Eat breakfast if you have time for it, or perhaps you'd rather skip this one time and save yourself the discomfort during the two hours of exercise that follow. Jogging, jumping jacks or perhaps impromptu team sports, whatever you end up doing you bet you'll come out exercised in the end!

Should you not want to participate... well. We have ways to make you join in. Anyone reluctant to get their heart rate up will get a helpful electric prod by one of the bots until they comply. Tough cookies.

Luckily you'll get a chance to wash off that sweat (hope you're not shy, the wash room can get crowded) before it's time for the silent game for an hour, followed by lunch. The day is not over yet though! There's still time for a couple of hours of hard labor tending to the crops, doing laundry or perhaps breaking bricks in the yard. To make sure none of the inmates are broken this is also the time for mandatory physical checkups — bots will guide you to the hospital. No ifs or buts. The violation of personal privacy is for your own good, we promise.

Isn't it nice, being in prison? ]

((ooc: This mingle takes place during all of day 222. A bullet-point for of the itinerary can be found here, where we also encourage you to direct any questions. Event info is here if you need it. ))

[Exercise]

[The cherubs had skipped breakfast, which was just as well. Caliborn wasn't interested in eating anything in that pack, and he doesn't regret it even while feeling a little weak during the exercise. Calliope had been useful and gathered chocolate from other inmates, but it was not exactly enough.]

[He's still pretty gung-ho about working out, if nothing else. Just try not to give him an excuse to compete directly. Or go ahead and do, he can embarrass himself.]

[Work]

[Caliborn chooses to break bricks. It's difficult, but he's fine with it. It'll make him stronger, and at least it's a good way to channel his growing aggression about the situation. This is incredibly dull and boring, other than the chance to cause some damage. It's not even fun damage. At least until he decides to start trying to see if he can make shards fly and hit other people.]

[Calliope, on the other hand, decides that tending crops is probably a better use of her time. She doesn't really know much about growing anything, given that the soil of their world was nothing more than desolate sand that had long ago lost its ability to nourish plants. It's a chance to learn some new things, in her mind, and that's the best way to keep herself occupied.]

[Free Period]

[Calliope is mostly concerned with just laying around in bed, but the door of the Alpha Kids + Aradia room is wide open. She's not ready to sleep, but she is also too tired to move. She will give a friendly grunt or comment to anyone who passes by, whether they technically belong in that room or not, but she is otherwise a useless blob of tired.]

[It eventually occurs to her that a shower would help, but her trepidation is enormous. She'd spent the mandatory bathing part not doing anything but sitting around fully clothed, after all.]

	[ Somewhere near the end of the day, after another nice long shower, Dirk wanders into the Alpha Kids + Aradia room and flops facedown onto one of the beds. He doesn't even notice Calliope; he can't remember a time when he's been this exhausted. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Calliope pathetically flops her head to the side in order to see who just came in. It only takes a brief moment before she is able to deduce his identity, mostly delayed due to plain ol' exhaustion.] [She is whiny, but not obnoxiously so.] Dirk... I feel like I can't move anymore... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Calliope whimpers in agreement.] Are you okay, dear? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Eyes narrowing at that as she gets closer this time.] Is there some kind of problem here? [If she sounds vaguely threatening then she apologizes. She meant to sound distinctly threatening.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll be more clear then. Stop flicking rock at me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hey. [He puts his mallet head-down on the ground, leaning on the stick like a cane.] All I'm doing. Is brutalizing my stone. If the tiny shards decide to attack dumb broads standing nearby. It's not my fault. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Calliope still hadn't decided if she was going to shower or not, but didn't exactly realize that standing around near the communal showers was kind of weird.] [Exhaustion weighs her down, giving her a slight slouch and droopy eyes. But when she sees Klara, the tiredness in her face alleviates as she brightens at seeing her friend.] Hello, dear. How are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
