So, you may have noticed that some people have been getting moody lately. Like everything is pissing them off, and they can very well turn on you. Well, the truth is, these woods have held more than animals and trees, and plants, and fruits, and regular woodsy stuff. An old, dark presence has lurked in the darkness, waiting for young, easily influenced minds to corrupt. To slowly take over their bodies and turn them into vessels for their agenda.

Today is the day when those corrupted reach their breaking point. No more mr nice guy. What triggers it is unknown; it may have been a simple misdirected joke, a playful shove, an unwelcome touch... All that is known is that suddenly, food is being flung at the poor sap that was just being his usual self. Suddenly, someone yells out "Food fight!" and everyone follows their example, food flying in all directions.

But the fun won't last forever. At some point, one of the corrupted will pull their wand, and things are going to get serious.

Better watch your back...

[Wow, people have been grumpy the past few days! It's really been bumming her out. Isn't camp supposed to be fun and games?]

[gloriousandfree]

[DUCKING UNDER A SANDWICH and flinging a hex in that direction. Whoops sorry Roxy, batbogey hex to the FACE]

[bev_rage]

[SKREE. SHE WASN'T EVEN THROWING FOOD yet.]

[gloriousandfree]

[She shifts her wand, shouting some spell that flicks the bats away and walking over. She's annoyed.]

Are you an idiot? Why are you throwing food around--are you even a first year? Don't you have manners?

[bev_rage]

I didn't throw anything! I was just trying to avoid getting hit in the face by vegetables!

[CALM. Breathe. She shakes her head like that will help and sighs. Loudly]

Then stay in the corner out of the way. Do you have a wand yet?

[Look at the innocent bitty, Madeline. Look at that bitty, traumatized face.]

No, Dirk and I are supposed to get them after camp.

[gloriousandfree]

[She's still pissed but Maddie can't really just let a pre-firstie be all alone and stuff.]

Well--just--[She reaches out and takes her hand, dragging her to the side and settling her behind an overturned table.] Just give me a moment, okay? [She reaches for a book in her pocket and flips through it. Books of defensive spells are handy alright]
