Max

@Lady Arya@Ducksworth

Max had been about to reply to Piper when she heard a loud thud, and looked behind her to what was a very strange scene. Most of the room hadn't reacted yet, some kids had turned their heads. Apparently, one kid had cut himself doing something or another, Max thought she'd saw him grab a knife when she had walked in. The kid who had cut himself was apparently being attended to by another kid, taller and rambling about something. Max couldn't really hear what they were saying over the noise coming from all other corners of the room. Stick a bunch of kids in a room and it's bound to be a bit noisy. Especially since there were approximately ten different conversations happening at the same time. Max kept looking around for the source of the loud thud, which appeared to be another kid that had...face planted the floor? Huh, maybe he didn't handle blood so well.

Max shook their head and looked back at Piper, "I guess we should consider ourselves lucky for choosing painting. Only cuts we're gonna get are paper cuts. Though, I got this one between my fingers once...nasty. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy,"

They shook their head again and sighed, turning their attention back to the paper in front of them, wondering what to paint. They still hadn't even made a single brush stroke. Some crafts time this was turning out to be, though, she wasn't surprised. She was just simply not a crafty person, why couldn't their mom have sent them to skateboard camp instead. Was skateboard camp even a thing? Max wasn't sure, but they already missed the feeling of the board underneath their feet, the feel of the wind in their face. There was just something serene about riding a skateboard while the music blared in your ears as you whipped around the pavement and just enjoyed life. It was the one place Max felt nothing could touch her, nothing could hurt her...well, except her own stupidity or lack of awareness. She'd hurt herself plenty of times just not reacting fast enough.

Max turned back to look at the kids that were bleeding, and then sighed. She had bandaids in her bag, she really should offer them..

"Be right back, don't let anyone steal my seat," She said and then sighed softly, hoisting her bag onto her shoulder and walking over to where the boy lay on the floor. She reached down and grabbed his arm, trying to help him into a standing position.

"It's alright, I got ya. Take it from someone who has fallen off their board many many times, you're gonna be fine. But ya can't just lay there forever," She said and then smiled softly, rolling her eyes in a playful manner. "I've got bandaids in my bag. Do ya want rainbow or tye-dye?"

Piper McAllister...
....................................................

She nearly had the bag of bracelets open when she heard the commotion on the other side of the cabin. The kid with the knife had his arm raised and she saw the blood streaking down his arm. “Yeah, shouldn’t have given him the knife…” Piper thought to herself, shaking her head in disbelief. Her gaze moved back to the bag of bracelets before she noticed the noise nearby. The girl seated next to her heard the same. As they both turned and saw another kid, laying on the floor. She met skateboard girl’s gaze and nodded in response. “Painting can be dangerous. Especially if it gets in the eye…” She responded back. They both turned back to their respective project, Piper slowly putting the bag of bracelets back in her bag. It was too soon for that anyway. The bravery slipping away.

Minding her own business, she kept painting then out of the corner of her eye, she saw the girl seated next to her pull out a box of bandaids and head off toward the kid that face planted. They mentioned something about a seat. “Oh sure…ok…” She said quickly watching them head off.

As if on queue, Jenny the one that handed the knife to the kid earlier, came busting through the side screen door. Her face frantic at the site. She rushed over to the kid holding his hand high like he had a question to ask. She took over for the other that had put cloth over the wound. “Remy? Right? Thank you for your quick action, I got it from here. Go wash your hands…with soap.” The counselor nodded toward a sink.

Jenny pulled back the cloth, the cut didn’t look too deep. Thankfully. “ Alright, let’s get you to the infirmary…get you cleaned up..” Jenny mentioned to the small pale kid.

Piper sat there watching the scene unfold as the back screen door opened. A male counselor and the new kid walked right into the chaos. Brody was his name, she recognized him from last year. He motioned to an empty seat for the new kid before making his way toward one that face planted.

“Dexter, mate… you gotta be more careful…” He kneeled beside the skateboard girl who seemed to be pulling out bandaids. “Ah, a person after my own heart. You get the prepared award, today.” He grinned at them before turning back to Dexter. “You will live, let’s get you to the nurse anyway.”

“Brody…can you take him too? Might want to tell Meg..” Jenny mentioned.

The counselors turned to one another, seeing they each had an injured kid. “Day three and we get a two-fer…” The male counselor laughed. “Keep that arm up…and you keep a hand on that nose…no dripping on my watch…and no Meg, his sister doesn’t need to know. Kid isn’t dying.” Motioning the two kids toward the door.

Piper leaned her head into her hand, it wasn’t lunch yet but the day was definitely more interesting than yesterday. She sighed softly turning back to her painting. It was nearly done but the inspiration wasn’t there anymore. The cabin was louder after the events and she couldn’t concentrate, she enjoyed the quiet. Piper moved the canvas aside as she turned her head toward the window. Outside was calling.

“I know that was exciting and maybe a little scary. Let’s focus on those creative ideas you have going. Just thirty minutes before the next activity. Jenny said before shuffling the campers back to their tables, urging them back to their tasks.
