Well, it's nice to have warning at least?

[Ahaha ... hah. Ahem.]

So a few changes of clothing, good shoes, lighters maybe for campfires? Flashlights too if you've got any. If you've got a way to bring water or other liquids that's good too.

[What else. Mmm ...]

And non perishable food too. You know, granola bars or something like that?

[bad_habit]

ya but the last time we got one of these little 'warnins' there was a lot of 'things left unsaid' [It was rough, so he can only imagine what sort of secrets the 'kidnap people' gang are hiding this time around.]

and what am i supposed to do carry all this crap??? the whole time???

...
...
... what are granola bars?

[thorncrown]

Usually yes. If you didn't carry it you would lose it pretty quickly so.

[Uh.]

They're these bars made out of granola. I've never had them before but people I went to school with seemed to like them for on the go things?

I'll be honest, I don't have a lot of experience with packing food for camping so.

Do you eat regular food? Sorry I know that's a weird question.

did you sign up for any of this? if so, i missed the chance to say whether or not i wanted to get involved, and they chose for me...

also: if you don't mind my asking, did you say "afterlife?"

[bad_habit]

...

OKAY THAT'S FAIR
i didn't get the option either
but i didn't think i'd have to be forced to go CAMPIN of all things [Don't focus on the lack of oxygen, or the fact that there's going to be a huge magical labyrinth in the middle of their fine island home soon. Let's focus on the fact that he might have to sleep on the ground for a few days. WHYINEVER.]
never have i ever wanted to
never would i ever think i would have to
it is SO NOT my thing

i did ya
[That's cause technically he's spent more time there then in the land of the living.]

[anciently]

hey, i get that. i'm not really the camping type either.
you can make it fun, though! there's stargazing, and toasted marshmallows...though i guess that's not really what we're in for here, huh?
maybe there'll be a chance for some of the normal variety at some point. more spooky stories by the campfire, less bloodthirsty monsters.

hope this isn't insensitive, but: are you saying you died before you came here?

Food, water, and a means of defending yourself are essential. A means to start a fire would be useful, though if you have a magic-user around, that may not be necessary.

I suppose I should bring something as well.

[ Like he was just...not going to. ]

[bad_habit]

oh shit
wait
there's magic here?
can they just magic up all that shit?
and i wont have to carry anything?

[He's like THIS close to making an ad right now;
Looking for magical companion for mission!
Ability to make room accommodations with fluffy beds preferred]

uh yeah,
i'm not a damn pack mule

i don't even know how the fuck i'm supposed to carry all this shit

[prevail]

I was thinking a number of mages I knew in my world could conjure fire, specifically. Though Aurora did say our capabilities may not function normally, so that may not matter.

[ Inconvenient, that. ]

Typically, I have seen packs or sacks used to carry supplies. The shops here may have something suitable for your use.

I don't think forced survival situations should really be called 'camping'

especially since you have to plan for it completely differently

[bad_habit]

then what the fuck do i call it?

i didn't know there was a fuckin' difference!
tbqh

i haven't ever had to plan for EITHER
so

[counterstep]

well
'bullshit' would be significantly more accurate to start with
so there's that option

technically you don't always get to plan for survivalist scenarios either so I guess they're throwing us a bone or something

[stresstokens]

I'm pretty sure that roughing it will be the least of our concerns. I give us a 1% chance that a challenge called the Labyrinth won't be infested by a bunch of monsters, especially since it's supposed to be some sort of "teamwork" challenge. You'll probably want to bring some firepower in addition to all the survival stuff. And maybe go by the buddy system.

They really dragged you here from the afterlife? What kind?

[bad_habit]

says you! i don't give af about this places fuckin monsters,
i've already kicked some the new ones asses,
i give ALOT of fucks
about sleepin on the damn ground! [priorities, they are so not in the right place.]

i don't have any of my fuckin' guns!
so i don't have any heat to bring!
and buddy system?
… i'm so fucked

[How does asking that question feel easier to deal with than planning to have to pack bug out bags?]

i was in fuckin Hell,
or so i thought
now i think this is Hell
i never had to sleep on the fuckin ground there!

[stresstokens]

If you already dealt with the monsters without your guns, then I guess you don't have anything to worry about. But I'd like to know what monsters you guys have already faced. It might give us a better idea for what to expect.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure this isn't Hell. I just came from there not so long ago too, and this place has an totally different colour scheme. And less screaming. Unless you count this post.

[ Har har. ]

For real, though, if you're so worried about the whole ground situation, just bring an air mattress or something. I dunno, you could hunker down by the entrance and just hope that there's a time limit??

[accelerate]

Have you glamped?

[bad_habit]

what the hell is glamped?

[The answer is clearly no, but that would totally be more up his alley for certain.]

[accelerate]

Glamping?
Glamor + camping?
It's like if traditional camping had a baby with an influencer's ego.

un: grayson

[cohero]

I don't think we have a choice, so it's probably best to find someone who knows about trying to survive whatever it is they're going to throw at us as your partner to start off with.

I mean, that's what I'd do. They said that they'll have some supplies to survive along the way, but who knows what that means.

[bad_habit]

...
what do you know about it???
you good at that kinda shit???
askin for friend
[That friend is him.]

who the fuck knows with this place
i mean i ain't got a lotta faith
considering when i first got here this place was like
half fuckin done

[cohero]

I'm not bad. I've had some experience at surviving when and where I've had to. I don't have a lot of faith because I don't know this place, or trust anything about it. Why trust anyone who kidnaps you with an ultimatum?

Now they're going to stick us in a maze and suck the oxygen out of where we live. That's not sketchy at all. Fucking crazy is what it is. They're not going to be nice. Whatever this is, is going to test us.

sounds like you better learn fast, huh?

ya tellin me
this is like some sorta sick cruel joke

[Does that mean she has no offerings? That's a real shame. Because he needs all of the advice. This is Hell, and he should know.]

[levelshift]

There has to be a better way to test us than camping in a goddamned glorified hedge maze.

[bad_habit]

see!
that's what i'm talkin about!

like how the fuck is that supposed to show us anything!?
aside from how badly we all fuckin' smell with no showers
