"Oh I see, ya some of us before had parents that sent us here as a rehab. At least if I know what a rehab is... but ya first time coming to a camp, walked a long way to get here. Didn't have family to drive me. Me and Neric have been on the road for a long time huh buddy?" James would chuckle as he looked at his Void, the black cloud of a cat curling up by his feet and taking a quick nap after jumping off the table. James sighs softly as he watches him, looking back at her with a smile as he lowers down just enough to pet the cat's head. "Anyway, what's your power? Since you've met mine." Refering to the black cat at his feet.

@LiegeLord "Well it's still pretty new but as far as I can tell I can set things on fire! I think it's cool, but all of my friends and my parents are afraid of me now, as if I'm just going to set them on fire." Charlotte looked around suddenly, wanting to show off her power, "Do you wanna see?" She looked around the camp for something she could set on fire.

"Huh, interesting. So you have some power with Fire, but don't worry I won't consider you anything bad. I think it's really cool." James would say with a smile, though his mind would wander for a moment as he thought about a certain girl. Hoping she and her partner are doing well before coming back to reality and hearing her talk about showing him her power. James nodding as looking eager. "Sure! As long as we don't cause any problems that could get us in trouble. But I would like to see it for myself."

Ivory followed Cecilia quietly. She played with a loose string on her sweeter while she walked. Cecilia was nice. She would definitely love to hang out with her more. "S-So what are w-we gonna do?" Ivory asked Cecilia about what they were gonna do for the art project. "B-because I can d-draw roses and a-animals. O-or if you want t-to we can do something e-else." Ivory told Cecilia.

Max was bored out of his mind sitting in the back of the small taxi with his backpack and duffle bag beside him. 'why couldn't they have just let me stay home, I only broke a tv on accident' max thought to him self as the taxi came to a slow stop. after paying the driver max stepped out of the car and looked at the scenery. "at least ill be able to draw here" max said to no one in particular as he began to look to see if he could find someone who resembled a councilor.

Ivy saw a new person. She beamed as she bounced over to him. She bounced around the new boy excitedly. "HELLO! WELCOME TO CAMP!
YOU'RE LATE! YOU'VE MISSED AN EVENT! WE WENT MOUBRAIN CLIMBING@ MY NAME IS IVY! WHAT'S YOUR NAME! I CAN CONTROL FIRE! WHAT CAN YOU DO?" She demanded as she moved around the boy excitedly.

[Blueflame]

Max was at first very surprised at the sudden appearance of ivy. Yet he still understood her "Hi, Thank you for welcoming me, I know that I am late, Sorry that I missed rock climbing, My name is Max, That sounds really cool, I can turn into smoke to get around." Max said believing he responded to every one of Ivy's fast paced statements to the best of his ability. "Sense I am new here mind showing me to the councilors so I may find my cabin?" Max asked as he was spinning to remain facing Ivy but stopped once he got dizzy @KatherinWinter

@LiegeLord Charlotte was smiling and looked around excitedly for an easy target. She finally landed on a stick in the grass and suddenly it glowed with flames but since it was so small it went out pretty quickly. There were a few pieces of grass that had also caught on fire and Charlotte had to stamp them out with her foot. She looked back up to James, very proud with her work, "Ha! Wow I haven't done that in a while, but it feels good!"

"THE COUNSELORS ARE STRANGE! THEY MOVE AND TALK AT THE SAME TIME! THEY'RE WITH THE OTHERS AT THE PICNIC TABLES! IT'S ARTS AND CRAFTS TIME! IT'S NOT FAR FROM HERE! I CAN SHOW YOU THE WAY!" Ivy assured him. Which was true. She knew where the others were and how to get there. She just wasn't the best person to follow. She bounced towards the activity only to be distracted by a butterfly. And shortly after that she started to follow a bird.

The relative coolness of the workshop carried a pleasant contrast to the outside, something that boosted Cecilia's optimism about the next hour or so. "Oh? Hmm... If I remember what the counselor's said, this is an activity to help us get to know each other better," Cecilia mentioned as a friendly reminder, though she hoped she wasn't missing anything. "It's like: each of us makes some artwork that in some way relates to the other person, or something like that. Does that make sense?" Cecilia asked sincerely. Either way, she guided Ivory to a station that likely had two chairs on either side, inviting her partner to sit down. But if Ivory wanted to get some supplies that weren't on their station, she was welcome to pick whatever she needed from another part of the room; the camp would have provided just about anything they needed. "Roses and animals? Wow, that's cool. You know, I had a feeling you were an artist of some kind," she commented with a light giggle. "I don't think the activity is that strict, so you can really let your imagination fly with this."

[Blueflame]

@KatherinWinter"Hey Ivy you sure we are going the right way?"Max says looking around not seeing anyone else. He was slightly concerned but didn't want to be rude so he still followed Ivy. 'I wonder if see even knows where we are going' max thought to himself as they started passing cabins.

Ivory nodded. "O-okay, what kind of things do you l-like?" Ivory asked her friend. she glanced around the workshop. She saw many different items and tools for art; Paintbrushes, paint, paper, stencils, anything you would need for the project. She turned her attention back to Cecilia, waiting quietly. She was honestly really excited to work with her. She was a really nice person so far. Ivory already felt comfortable with her.

[KatherinWinter]

@Blueflame
"I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE!" Ivy promised. She bounced back towards the tables. But as usual her focus didn't last long. Within a minute she was bouncing after a squirrel. Ivy couldn't help her lack of focus. She didn't do it on purpose. She was honestly trying to get the new arrival to the counselors but she was easily distracted.

[Blueflame]

@KatherinWinter"alright Ivy I trust you" Max says looking around yet again to see any land marks he could remember. None stood out to Max so he marched on following Ivy. (sorry for the shortness I cant think of what to post.)

James woupd wait patiently, curious about her power and how it really worked. Watching her as he looked around for something, though soon his vision would fall over the same stick as her as he soon saw it light on fire. His eyes widdening a bit. She didn't even need to touch it, though would have started to get up to stomp out the grass that was trying to light on fire. Her taking that point, looking at her as he spoke. "That was cool, so you can look at something and set it on fire? Or am I wrong? Sorry I was just fascinated by it was all..." Not wanting to bombard her with too many questions or wanting to overwhelm her. Just for him, it was nice being able to talk to people who he could get along with and be able to talk on the same page with.

@deerling
Cecilia gave Ivory's question some thought, quite audible thought, before answering. "Hmmm... Well I've traveled around a lot, and I just love seeing new places and trying new things, well, some things more than others," she said, before getting side tracked with an inquiry of her own. "I'm sorry if it goes without saying, but I take it you really like nature and things like that. Am I right?" she smiled, finding it easy to talk with her.

[deerling]

@Mangrale
Ivory giggled, nodding. "I l-love nature and a-animals. E-especially little bunnies!" Ivory told Cecilia. She sat down and hummed to herself while getting a pencil and some paper. "W-What are you g-going to use? I can g-go get what you need." Ivory offered.

[Mangrale]

@deerling
"Awww, bunnies are so cute!" Cecilia announced with a giddy smile. "I've seen a few now and again, but they always run away before I get too close." Ivory seemed to have an idea of what she'll be doing already, her generous offer prompting Cecilia to quickly scramble to think of something. "Y-Yeah well I've never had the opportunity to do much beyond sketches and drawings... But I guess there is one thing I wanted to try. I really shouldn't play safe with this... um, I spotted some packs of sticky-notes on a table when we came in. Can you get me one for me please? I-I can get anything for you while you're doing that, if you want."

@Blueflame
Kyle was watching the others so he didn't notice that Ivy had waylaid another newcomer. He sighed and made his way of to the two. "I apologize for my sister. Icy means well but she has the attention span of a goldfish. The counselors aren't fair if you'll follow me I'll get you over there. I don't think they assigned you a cabin yet. So I don't know where your stuff goes." he explained before heading towards the tables.

It was oddly enough a lot warmer out here than it was in the city. The sight of green grass and trees littered about was a welcoming sight to Kaeden compared to the dull grey of the city streets. He was only circling above in flight trying to deduce whether this was the right place. He was a little nervous about landing. What if somebody saw him? What if this wasn't the camp? How old was that flyer? Maybe the camps not open anymore?

With a shaky breath he lowered himself closer to the ground until his feet were planted firmly. His tail, free from the confines of his clothes, twitched behind him nervously, wings idly relaxing on his back. He wasn't comfortable getting rid of them just yet in case he needed to make an escape. He held up the flyer in his hand, the photo on it matched the view in front of him so... 'Maybe this is the right place- WAIT, did anyone see me landing!?' he frantically looked around to make sure. He knew the flyer said the camp was for people like him, but being seen like this still made him nervous. 'I guess it... doesn't really matter...'

He looked up to the archway in front of him. 'Welcome to Camp Castaway!' was carved into it, a very obvious entrance to the camp. But Kaeden was hesitant. In fact he backed up. 'I... suddenly don't want to do this...' after a moment he felt shocked at his own thoughts. 'What am I TALKING ABOUT? This is my one chance to... to be normal... to... meet people?' he didn't realize he was slowly seeking shelter behind a tree near the entrance. 'Where do I even go?...'

He felt trapped between a rock and a hard place. Part of him really wanted this... but the other part was too scared.
