action | June 11 morning

[leftmytower]

[ Rapunzel was wandering around the camp, having finally found the area with the lodgings after being dropped off by the Airport Shuttle. She was late, of course, but the tiny, local Pennsylvania airport only made flights out this way twice a week, and Rapunzel got horribly lost while on a layover in Houston and missed that flight, so it was really just a mess. But she was finally here!

She made a little yelp and stopped when her hair got caught on a particularly large stick. ]

I need one of those elastic hair things. Wish I'd thought of that before I came.

[ She chewed her bottom lip. That would have to be fixed later, right now she needed to set her bags down and get Pascal settled. He was not enjoying all of the moving around. Her nose was nearly touching her map of the camp she'd been mailed. It was positioned awkwardly on the aquarium, since Pascal took two hands to carry. ]

Pascal, you are so heavy! Gosh, there should be a picture of a turtle or something, all these cabins look the same... Where is mine?

A wolf? Isn't that dangerous?

It's not a big deal if not, he just eat bugs anyway! It's all he needs. Well, and water, of course! Oh, that reminds me-

[ Rapunzel put Pascal back into his terrarium and then pulled a little spray bottle from her bag, spraying the tree and the rest of the interior.

An extra misting went on Pascal directly, who was seeking the cover of his tree leaves. ]

It seemed like it, but from what I know, she's pretty well trained. I roomed with the little girl last summer.

[Almost instinctively, Fi shirks away from the spray bottle, just a little. Nothing bad would happen to her - she showers regularly after all - she just doesn't like to unintentionally get wet.]

Why do you need to spray him?

[leftmytower]

Well, they're originally from the rainforest, so he's supposed to be in a hot, humid place. He actually absorbs the water through his skin, instead of drinking it! So he needs "rain" at least once a day in his terrarium.

[ She looked up from Pascal and beamed. He was the coolest pet, and no one could tell her otherwise. ]

I'm sorry! I didn't get you, did I? [ She just realized that Fi had jumped away. ]
