outdoor survival club

A catch-all for all your camping and camping-related activity needs. By the end of the month, proof of club activity is required — demos, photos and anything else that can prove they've been active is welcome, so it's time to make their club advisor jealous everyone all planned a "camping trip" without them or something.

[contrarily]

( she gladly follows them inside, because despite being a member of the outdoor survival club, she doesn't actually particularly enjoy the outdoors, or surviving for that matter —

though... )

You can buy... safety?

[adsum]

Sure you can!

[ There is no elaboration, not while they're still coming down the hall and npc-kun can't gesture grandly to what's hung up on their walls and on the shelves.

... ]

What is it you're scared of?

[contrarily]

( everything would be the easy answer — but she's got appearances to keep up, and letting herself appear fragile has always been a problem. in the end, though, she's still just a teenage girl, just as terrified of pain and death as anyone would be — not much of it slips past her bravado, but...

well, she won't let herself appear weak in front of a stranger, that's for sure. )

Nothing. But this place's kinda fucked, isn't it? How can you protect someone from all the weird shit that happens around here?

[adsum]

[ The answer disappoints them, but only because they wouldn't be able to sell safety to a person who isn't scared, who already feels safe- or confident in themselves to be safe. ]

That depends on what they need protecting from. If they're scared, I can help... If they're hurting, I can help... If they feel like they're losing themselves, I can help... Things like that. It doesn't matter what this school throws at you; I'm sure I have something that can help.

[contrarily]

Huh...

( that sounds a little too convenient to be true, but it's not like she's got any reason to argue. something to keep in mind for the future, maybe, if she ever feels like she's about to lose herself, or... whatever. )

Hmm, that sounds suuper cool ~ Guess Shopkeeper-kun's just thaaat talented ~

[adsum]

Yep!

[ They sure are talented! The best! Never mind that most of that has to do with their wares and not themselves. They'll let things speak for themselves, turning the door handle to the store and pushing the door and propping it open before stepping inside and turning around and spreading their arms wide. ]

Ta-da! Welcome to the place where dreams come true! Take your time to look around and buy everything that catches your eye, there's no need to hold back!

[ Normal student store items... some of the innocuous bonus activity items... there are a lot of little boxes filled with rocks, some of which npc-kun is going around to refill from the rocks in their satchel. ]

[contrarily]

( she looks around the store, not exactly... used to this kind of a place... when she thinks stores, she thinks seven eleven, or maybe a clothes shop, and this sure is... not... that... )

That's a lot of rocks. ( she notes, peering into one of the rock boxes.

why so many... is this the hot item of the season or something... )

[adsum]

Yeah! How many do you want?

[ It's a hot item, obviously. Look how many rocks there are just waiting to be sold. ]

hi a week later

[contrarily]

... none. This is all garbage you picked up from the ground.

( stare. )

cain rising from the ashes a week later to choose blasphemy

[adsum]

Wha- No it's not!

[ FIRST OF ALL they're not the one who picked the garbage off the ground ]

Some of these are from rivers [ probably ] and mountainsides [ they think, maybe ] and private collections [ Rokkun's ]! Don't be fooled by appearances— these are real treasures!
