CAMPUS WIDE EVENT: EVERYTHING AND THE KITCHEN SINK

[Hopefully everybody likes waking up outside.

Because as it were, in the middle of the night when everybody had been asleep or lulled into a sudden one by the sheer weight of the air around them...the Campus disappeared in its entirety. Left behind was only the cool surface of the concrete foundation.

For now it seems the residents were left to fend for themselves in the wilderness of the island. Not even the voice from over the intercom would comfort them.]

((ooc: the school has disappeared, along with all the NPCs and everything that was inside! no opt-out areas this time around. The temperature is cool during the day, and colder at night.

The event will last until October 20th, and I'll post a closer to signify it. Everything will be returned to its rightful place then.))

Huh, I see... I didn't know that. I can go look in the cave and see if there's a spot there the water comes in at, if it helps.

"...I didn't know that either. Anything I ever caught before was just eaten right away." That and it had helped a lot being a packrat about canned goods.

It kind of sucks having to admit to himself that maybe it's good having Bakura around, at least for this. He blinks at the word 'cave' and turns to Karasu.

"Hey, take this. It'll follow, don't worry."

Say hi to a little flame floating within reach.

It's one of the oldest methods of preservation. The salt kills any dangerous organisms that might decide to reside in the food, while the water prevents the meat from drying out too far and becoming too tough. Salt on its own would do, but the water's the closest thing we have.

[If it's to do with death, he probably has knowledge of it... but it helps that he was alive when it was common practice to salt and dry meat you caught to store up for the winter.

He watches the flame with interest, though he doesn't stop his work.]

That'll help.
moderndaydragon: (Of a new and brighter birth?)

[personal profile] moderndaydragon 2013-10-18 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
All right. I'll be back in a bit.

[Karasu smiles at the little flame, giving Kai a bright smile.]

Thank you! That'll help a lot!

[And with that, she heads into the cave, the flicker of the flame disappearing around a bend before too long.]

Kai watches until the light disappears, then settles back with a sigh, staring at the fire for a minute before he decides to take another look at Bakura's work.

Ugh.

Yep, flames are more pleasant, back to staring at that and contemplating if he should go fetch his shirt. Naw, it's at least useful for carrying things.
fluffydeathdealer: Yami Bakura (Look at the size of my deck)

[personal profile] fluffydeathdealer 2013-10-18 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Feeling squeamish?

[Setting the meat aside, he brings the blade to his mouth, licking the residual blood from it with an amused expression.]
shadowscall: (Whatever)

[personal profile] shadowscall 2013-10-19 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
"It's not my favorite thing in the world, how's that."

Why did he have to look over just then. Note to self, quit looking at people when they speak to him, he'll miss seeing things like that.

"So."

Yep, there's a good conversation starter. He's not even sure he wants to be having one, but it might be better than just sitting here. Maybe.

Probably not.
fluffydeathdealer: Yami Bakura (Smugly planning)

[personal profile] fluffydeathdealer 2013-10-19 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
H-heh heh... 'So'? Are you so struck silent by my presence as all that?

[His voice is filled with amusement to the point of being joking. Of course he doesn't expect respect or even friendliness from this kid. He's sure that he barely tolerates his presence.

After all, this was the kid who found the thought of his host being left alone without him to be a pleasant one. What a fool... as if Ryou could survive on his own in this world.]
shadowscall: (Exasperated)

[personal profile] shadowscall 2013-10-19 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, be amused, Kai'll just be mildly annoyed. He'd wanted to go camping, but there were supposed to be s'mores involved, not dead rabbits.

Or Creepers.

"So I'm not sure how to start a conversation with you. A civil one, I mean." He rolls his eyes heavenward before picking up a small rock to play with. "Maybe sitting here in silence is better."

Because he can suddenly think of at least two subjects he'd be happy to avoid.
fluffydeathdealer: Yami Bakura (Eye see you...)

[personal profile] fluffydeathdealer 2013-10-19 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Creepers gonna creep, yo. You can't help that. But right now his main focus is on the rabbits, taking away half of his creeper tendencies.

But none of his assholeish ones.]

You don't have to be civil. Karasu-chan isn't here to hear, and I'm hard to seriously offend! Though, heh... I guess that will be less fun for you.
shadowscall: (Default)

[personal profile] shadowscall 2013-10-19 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
Ha, and there was one of the subjects. Kai's eyes narrow for just a moment before he starts tossing the rock in his palm. He couldn't ding him in the head and claim accident, right?

"Honestly, maybe I'm just too tired to be a jerk." Or too much of one. Kai drops the rock and gets to his feet, going to fetch his shirt-turned-bag. Covering up the other subject he'd like to avoid is suddenly a priority.


fluffydeathdealer: Yami Bakura (Don't be a fool)

[personal profile] fluffydeathdealer 2013-10-19 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Tch, you're no fun...

[Bakura pouts, looking almost as childish as his body usually does. If Kai's tired, there's no point in trying to rile him up, is there? Stupid humans and their stupid need for stupid shit like sleep.]
shadowscall: (Smile)

[personal profile] shadowscall 2013-10-19 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
That gets a smirk out of him as he carries the fruit back over and sets it down near the fire before shaking his shirt out. Geeze, did enough leaves and twigs come with the fruit?

"Sorry."

Ha.

Kai tugs his shirt on, relieved to have it back. And as tired as he might be, he doesn't have much intention of sleeping tonight. Staying awake and playing guard is go.
moderndaydragon: (Than the stones that form the base?)

[personal profile] moderndaydragon 2013-10-25 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Thankfully, Karasu comes back before either of them actually have to be -- gaps -- social.]

Bakura-kun! It opens out into the water not too far down.
fluffydeathdealer: Yami Bakura (Uh... Come again?)

Sorry for my absence! My mind decided to die on possble responses for a while.

[personal profile] fluffydeathdealer 2013-10-28 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Eh, really?

[Damn, and he was going to torment the kid something rotten.]

That's good. Once I'm done with these, we can drag them there and sort them out. Maybe you can even make it into a makeshift larger for the meat, h-heh.
shadowscall: (Autumn)

[personal profile] shadowscall 2013-11-09 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
He's so glad to see Karasu he could kiss her. Instead Kai just smiles in relief, calling the flame he'd sent with her over to him, where he bounces it between his hands.

"Next time we do this, let's make sure we bring hot dogs." Although waiting until summer for that seemed a better idea...If they were still here by then. Hopefully not.
