What a lovely day for a bit of kayaking

there's something on the shore
what's up? It’s sort of hard to tell if Peckenpaugh has reclaimed normalcy in the seven days since Pocket’s party. What it has is not quite peace, not quite quiet, not quite stillness, but certainly something. In brief moments and out of the corner of your eye, it seems as though a war is being fought ⁠— one that Peckenpaugh is winning ⁠— though none of the battles remain in focus long enough to tell if they’re real or imagined. Is it danger? Or just a weed problem? Has this all happened before? Answers remain difficult to find as time keeps hurrying along.

Today, the rain has finally stopped after pouring ceaselessly for more than a day. The sun is warm, temperatures climb back up once more. Adventure Club meets at the docks of Lake Peckenpaugh for a kayaking trip, and elsewhere on campus Eddy Waxweiler returns something that doesn’t belong to him…
volunteer slots! Please see individual comment subheaders below for a list of volunteer slots. Only adventure club members can take volunteer slots for the KAYAKING subheaders. Anyone NOT in adventure club may take the ON CAMPUS volunteer slots.

ADVENTURE CLUB MEMBERS:
(seniors) Anthony, Audrey, Elijah, Gertrude, Howdy, Imogen, Jupiter, Merlin, Valkyrie
(juniors) Armani, Fiona, Ian, Lydia, Mary Grace, Pax, Uriah, Wyatt
(sophomores) Kirby, Mia, Scarlett

how this works! Right after class on Friday afternoon, Adventure Club gathers at the docks on Lake Peckenpaugh to set off for a bit of kayaking. Ms. Min, Mr. Trullinger and Mr. Youngblood are supervising the excursion.

They get about 45 minutes into their boating trip when they notice something odd on the shore…

Meanwhile, within the same window of time, Eddy Waxweiler heads to Ms. Gunzenhauser’s office to return a golden cicada shell.

locations! KAYAKING: ON LAKE PECKENPAUGH: It’s a lovely day out on the lake. The water is tranquil, the birds are singing, and so is Mr. Trullinger. As the students paddle north up Lake Peckenpaugh, it’s easy to forget about the last week or so and just appreciate the natural beauty of the holler, or get lost in conversation while Trullinger and Youngblood shout fishing stories.

KAYAKING: SOMETHING STRANGE ON THE SHORE: About forty-five minutes into their boating trip — right before they make to turn around and head home — someone spots something strange on the shore near the trees, and perhaps against their better judgment, club members go to investigate...

ON CAMPUS: EDDY RETURNS ZELDA'S SHELL: Eddy Waxweiler has something that doesn’t belong to him. It’s time to give it back...

ON CAMPUS: OUTSIDE CENTRAL CLASSROOMS: Just as the first boats from Adventure Club reach the shores of Lake Peckenpaugh, something strange happens outside Central Classrooms…

THIS EVENING: The rest of the afternoon is somewhat tense. Security is tightened around campus, and it seems no one is able to get very far without the eyes of a staff member, auror or BoMB agent finding them.

ON CAMPUS: OUTSIDE CENTRAL CLASSROOMS: Pursuing Ms. Guzenhauser

Eddy's not quite sure what he was expecting when he returned Ms. G's memory, but it wasn't this. Seizures had featured in at least a dozen scenarios, so this is definitely preferable, but from the moment she'd told him he needed to remember this, his brain had gone into 'oh, fuck' mode.

Be on your guard. That thing has an end. Ice doesn't always work. They told her wrong. Had to see all of it. Can become, almost flawlessly.

The phrases repeat in his head as he tails after her down the stairs and outdoors, fighting to hold onto them. And if Pocket gives him the slightest bit of notice, guilt is written all over his face when she asks who'd given the memory back. This newest exchange is filed away best as he can while his mind turns over everything that's already been said. And shadow vines. Shadow vines??

"Uh, shit," is all he says to the other gathered students when Ms. Guzenhauser is on the move again, and he sprints after her.

Mary Grace peppers the friendly-faced auror with questions as they leave the BoMB encampment. Some about the auror himself ("Do you have a codename? Is someone watching us right now? Have you done this before or is this some kind of hazing ritual for the new guy to go die?"), some about their situation ("Y'all get in the creepy tunnel yet? I ain't telling you how to do it 'less you ask real nice."), some total nonsequiturs ("Favorite Iron Chef, go."), but, eventually, they leave him behind, and Bub isn't nearly as fun to question.

So, Mary Grace turns to Wyatt. "Our college application essays are gonna be so fucking baller, dude," she says, as if she truly believes Wyatt Webberley is going to college.

Wyatt is a shadow of his usual self, shoulders slouched and, most concerningly, his face screwed up in deep thought. "Oh, yeah, for sure it is," he murmurs.

The second they're out from under the wings of the amiable Auror, Uriah blurts out: "Do you think they're goin' t'do experiments on him?"
