[Everything in camp seems calm now - quiet, even. The rumblings have stopped and the Virusaur is truly dead - a puddle of black blood that crackles a bit in the cornfield near the barrier.

Ha. Almost like they think food makes everything less weird.

It works, doesn't it?

It's mainly sweet or starchy foods that make you feel better.

But no-one is really hurt and a lot of people worked together in the past week.

. . . maybe.

But half of Camp is destroyed and there was a giant dinosaur with a hat running around for a day.

As stories go, the plot points could have been better. But it's about a monster that no-one could defeat until the right person with the right weapon comes along.

[But as this is Camp . . . ]

[a nod]

One that was supposed to be able to beat the Devourer.

I think you're right.

[. . . sips]

Let's just hope it isn't nearly as stupid as what just happened.

Very few things can come close . . .

'Course, as soon as we say that, something even dumber will come up.
