You again || Jack and Rose

While packing her rucksack for the camping trip with fellow students of the academy, the dark angel wondered herself what she had actually thought at the moment she assigned herself for this event. A sigh rolled off her thin lips after the rucksack was thrown over her shoulder. You can survive this, Elle. Not paying much attention as the teachers were holding a speech about their coming three days were going to look like. Her blue eyes roamed around the crowd, she could recognize a couple of familiar faces and a handful of strangers standing around her. As the long talk was done and they were supposed to find their tent-mate, her eyes stopped at the visage of a cupid that she couldn’t quite tell whether she would dislike or like him in general. “Please don’t tell me you are in tent number 2”, said she with an unpleasant touch in her voice that she didn’t bother to hide.

Team Musical Entertainment. {IALastManCamping} Ben & Gackt.

When volunteering to take part in the academy’s camping excursion the dragon really had no idea what it was they would end up having him do but it seemed as though he had gotten a stroke of luck and was left paired up to help arrange the musical entertainment for the next for days. 

He had no idea whether he was going to be the musical entertainment or if he would have to run about the students and inquire as to whether or not they had any particular musical talent that they had wanted to show off. Either of the options weren’t exactly to his liking as there was a high chance that a good few of the students that thought they were musically gifted might be as pleasing to listen to as nails down a chalkboard and as for his own talents, well, his singing was restricted to times when he might have had a bit too much to drink. It was never anything he would do openly unless he felt it absolutely necessary.

For now, he had opted to but his strengths to use and had busied himself with assembling a drum kit, one of the few instruments he had actually taken an interest in within his few years inside a human body. He had gotten most of the components in place and had busied himself with testing each one, sitting on the tiny stool his foot tapped against the pedal of the bass drum, sticks hitting against any number of snares, toms and cymbals to make sure each drum was tightened properly.

For a brief moment he was completely distracted by his own amusement, attention cutting from the instrument when he noticed a figure approach him, the man he assumed to be his teammate for this activity. “So, you’re Gackt?” He asked without much interest as he moved from where he sat to round the drum kit and offer him his hand. “Pleasure to work with you. I hope you know more about musical entertainment than I do.”

Dinner Hunt [IAEvent] || Gao & Jackson

Jackson was biting his lip as he was trying his best to gather everything he thought he needed. Sure, he was really good at archery. But now things were different. He wasn’t going to shoot at people and not hurt them. Since shooting love arrows wouldn’t leave any physical wounds. No this time he was shooting to kill. Which would probably be a first for him and that scared him a little bit. He was sure of himself that he was able to hit the target, he had 70 years of practice for that. But aiming, looking at a target, knowing he was going to end their live… A shiver ran down his spine by the mere thought of it.

With a sad face he took another glance at his bow that was laying a bit away from him. He didn’t want to kill, he wanted to take that bow and spread the love in the forest. He tore his gaze away again and continued to stuff the little backpack with things he thought he might need. His normal, happy and enthusiastic self wasn’t really anywhere to be found. Maybe the other male he had to hunt with was able to kill them? Then he just needed to spot the targets and gather them? Or maybe that was bad as well.

A loud groan left his lips as he sat down on the ground. “This is stupid,” he mumbled to himself, giving his own bag another kick. Sitting there sulking, maybe he could just give some puppy eyes so he didn’t need to go? Just anything to not hurt another living being.

Boredom Leads to Adventure! // Inguk and Samuel

If Inguk were a normal instructor, he’d go on these little trips they planned for the students all the time. But, Inguk wasn’t normal at all. He wasn’t even technically ‘alive’. With a deep breath of the crisp Light realm air into his non-existent lungs, he had already pondered over the wonders and possible treasures littered underneath the earth or, well, ground, that had yet to be discovered! What sort of little clumps of mineral beauties could he shape and polish to a collectible state? Oh, how he wanted to explore. But exploring would have to wait. 

For a while, apparently.

The entire beginning of the trip was just for the walk into the camp sight. Even during that, already the little squishies had gotten themselves in some sort of trouble, needing help from a more... learned elder. Even now, as the sun was beginning to slowly set, they were all still setting up camp in the open field. The steambot was already hard at work putting together his and his soon-to be roommate’s tent though the other was yet to be found. “ O’ course..” The old man grumbled to himself. “I end up putting it up by myself.” With a cranking device he invented himself, he was attaching the tent’s ropes to it so as to apparently hoist it all up in one movement. First, however, he would have to stake the corners into the dirt. 

“Hey.” He raised his voice toward a man approaching the area. Inguk had seen perhaps once or twice before in the teachers common room. “You’re my roommate, huh? Took you long enough. Make yourself useful and hand me that hammer, would ya’?”

Early Bird Catches Breakfast

@seline-ia Eileen had always been an early riser, a morning person, but one night of sleeping (or rather not so much sleeping) Eileen rose even earlier than normal. It seemed like they were getting old as their back aches from sleeping on the hard ground. Lesson learned next time they would bring a mat or extra blankets rather than just a sleeping bag. Glancing at their watch it seemed to be about five thirty or so in the morning. It was much to early to find their chore mate and go hunting for some breakfast supplies together, but maybe Eileen could get a head start by themselves. Moving out of the tent Eileen stretches and successfully cracks their back in the process, something that was much needed, and heads off into the woods, not bothering to change out of their pajamas yet. Back on Earth, Eileen was fairly familiar with plants and could tell a poisonous berry from a safe to eat berry. But being on a new planet, they were a bit skeptical of what they should look for for food. Puffing their cheeks out a bit they hoped their chore mate knew a bit more than they did. Maybe it would be better to just map out the areas that seemed to have things to eat so they could go back and gather the items together. Waiting until around 6:50am, Eileen makes their way back to the campsite and heads for tent ten, peaking their head in a bit before gently poking at the others sleeping form. "Seline? Everyone is going to be getting up soon...we should probably start gathering breakfast supplies." They say with a soft smile, hoping the other was a morning person as well.

Sleepless Night

@kimhyolyn-ia Eileen had not been camping since they were a small child. Their grandmother used to take them out on warm summer nights in Arizona to camp out under the stars. It was such a happy memory that Eileen jumped at the chance to sign up for the camping trip that Insolitus was sponsoring. Though it was a bit f a shock to Eileen that they were paired up with a student to spend the three nights with. They guessed it wasn't so bad, they were probably close in age since Eileen was just barely under their mid twenties. Tent and camping gear in hand Eileen heads over to their tent mate, Hyolyn. They were a bit nervous as they did not know the student well, in fact Eileen doesn't remember ever being introduced before. Well, this trip will certainly be interesting. "Hyolyn?" Eileen asks walking up to them with a friendly smile. "I'm Eileen, looks like we'll be spending the next three nights together." They say holding out their hand for the other to take. They didn't like to admit it, but one they made their away over to the student, they were a bit intimidated and worried. One about sharing a tent with a stranger, two sharing a tent with a student, and three they started to worry about where they were going to change into their pajamas and clothes. Hopefully Hyolyn wouldn't mind taking turns to use the tent as a dressing room. "I'm excited, I think it'll be fun." They say their smile growing as they tried to suppress some of the anxieties that were suddenly creeping up.

I will be posting the starters tonight as I have some free time from 330-5 EST! Hopefully that will be long enough to do both of them~ @kimhyolyn-ia and @seline-ia Anyone else who would like to do a para with Eileen on the camping trip, please like this and I will message you about what you’d like to do! Thank you!

Team Handsome~ Sam II Gao

Saying that Gao was surprised when he got the night watch as a task at the academy’s collective tour would be a lie. The night shifts at the workshop were usually also his and to be honest he felt relieved and glad that it happened like this. He missed discovering strange planets even when it never was his main work but still… Just him, a campfire and the stars. Plus the idiot he would get as a company he added mentally with a growl. Not like he usually would mind it. Gao was a really social creature with a tiny bit of fear of staying alone in the background but now. He could only hope that the other wasn’t a talkative bastard.

“Hello” He nodded when the other male finally showed up. Okay at least he wasn’t a student. That was already a half-victory yeah? Plus he seemed normal. No wings, horns or anything weird or magical. Accepting other cultures no matter what was important but his rational mind went sceptic around magical creatures at a blink of eyes. “So are we doing it in shifts or just immediately go through the whole night?” He asked while stretching his arms.
