[IC] Pre-thread w/goddanit and philososper: Getting into the swing of it!

[dannedbygod]

Summer camp. Just the very words tend to evoke a strong mental image of canoeing on the lake, hiking through the woods, making silly arts and crafts, and generally doing normal outdoors-y things to pass the time. I may not be John Wayne or the type to enjoy being out in the wilderness for very long periods of time, but everyone has their moments

*Is that a familiar smile your way, Kyon?

Yes, yes it is.*

[dannedbygod]

....Why do I suddenly get the feeling the theme from Jaws should be playing right now?

[Lol-no. He's going to be ignoring it and determinedly walking.... in some direction. Poor sap doesn't even have a map of the place yet!]

[philososper]

*Going to step out behind a tree like five feet behind you now*

It's been a while... Kyon.

[dannedbygod]

[Aaaand he jumps like five feet in the air, dropping his bags in the process!

S-sob. At least neither one flew open, right?]

Are you trying to kill me or something?!

[philososper]

*Leaning down to pick one of the bags up* That's quite a cruel accusation. Was there something wrong with what I said?

[dannedbygod]

Don't you know better than to sneak up on people like that?

[philososper]

Ah, but you only perceive it as me sneaking up on you because you weren't aware of my presence.

[dannedbygod]

And he goes from courteous to creepy in 0.03 seconds! It's a new record! Try to hold out longer, Koizumi. Believe in the me who--oh, I'm not even going to bother. Too easy.

You could've realized I'm kind of distracted right now and tried getting in front of me first. [He grabs his other bag]

[philososper]

It would seem that what they say about hindsight is true. I hope no harm was done to your bags?

[dannedbygod]

I doubt it. It's just clothes and a couple odds and ends.

[philososper]

That is the standard for attending a summer camp, I hear.

Though... *A pause. Koizumi is Thinking, Kyon* ...this summer camp is on the unusual side of things.

(ooc: Trying a different format for displaying monologues. Let me know which is both easier to read and easier to separate from the dialogue!)

'Like the purple gorillas, zombies, and what I'm pretty sure is either a tentacle monster or a really out of place giant squid in the lake? Gee, Koizumi, what tipped you off?'

So I've noticed.

[philososper]

(ooc: I like this one!)

*A smile* Splendid. That saves me a great deal of explaining its oddities.

[dannedbygod]

(ooc: Cool. :^|b)

'....Did I actually manage to get out of an hour-long philosophy lecture I would barely understand and a nice long list of stuff I shouldn't believe but will be invariably proven wrong about in the not-so-distant future?'

SO, where do I go for my cabin assignment?

[philososper]

That's a slightly conditional situation. Have you seen Miss Suzumiya yet?

[dannedbygod]

'Ignoring all possible time paradoxes! You saw nothing here folks! There are not two separate interactions with two different people going on at the same time here folks! Nope! Not at all!'

....she's here?
