Mess Hall mingle post

[moextispicy]

[It's Tuesday, everyone's favorite day in the Mess Hall. Today, camp has decided to accompany the soup with a generous supply of various anti-nausea remedies, from a wide variety of ginger flavored things to Pepto Bismol. It would probably increase the ominousness of the soup to noncannibals if anything actually could at this point.

[Does not recognise modern anti-nausea meds, but she can recognise the signs of a hangover. Also steadfastly ignoring the soup.]

You don't look very well.

[moextispicy]

Mi- It's just a little bug. I'll be fine.

[runstowardsfire]

Oh. You'll probably need some rest on top of more fluids then.

[moextispicy]

I planned on it, nipa~

[runstowardsfire]

[You're really young to be that hungover . . .]

Do people get sick often here?

[moextispicy]

Only if you include the viruses. Mi- are you new?

[runstowardsfire]

Yes--I was blown in by a freak gust of wind.

Viruses? They make people ill?

[moextispicy]

Mi- It sounds exciting.

[sits down and makes herself comfortable if this is going to turn into a real conversation]

Not really. They just change people temporarily.

[runstowardsfire]

[Pants-wetting terror actually. She hopes that you're not sitting downwind of the soup too.]

Change people . . . By magic?

[moextispicy]

[Well to be fair, she's probably more used to the smell.]

[no- no wait that was a bad idea] Mm-hmm. People change sex or turn into an animal for a couple days a lot, nipa~

[runstowardsfire]

. . . That's very powerful magic of some sort.

[moextispicy]

Camp has a lot of that.

[runstowardsfire]

I also heard that the person in charge of all this is the Director. And that the soup is inedible today.

[moextispicy]

That's right. Though it looks like camp's trying to be helpful about the inedibility today, nipa~

[runstowardsfire]

Is that supposed to be medicine? I don't think it's going to be enough . . .

[moextispicy]

That's the way camp works.
