Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
A Ski Lodge
You sit at your desk, half in a daze as your math teacher drones on about quadratic functions. Stealing a glance out the window of your perfectly mundane classroom, you see a perfectly mundane gray sky. The clock ticks away in rhythm with the beats of your heart, orderly and ordinary. You count every second, wishing for something a little less typical.
After what feels like an eternity the bell rings and you head to your locker to prepare for whatever perfectly mundane class is next. As you open it a piece of paper flutters out. You grab it before it falls to the floor and examine it. The paper is tough cardstock and the front has a picture of an idyllic lakeside cabin on it, as well as a peculiar symbol in the corner that you can't quite make out. You sigh, imagining what you would give for an escape like that. You flip over the paper to find the other side covered in inky scrawl, which reads-
Does life have you feeling bored? Longing for adventure unexplored? Well look no further, my lovely friend, a vacation I'm here to recommend!
I would like to write this whole letter in rhyme, but that's beyond my creative capacity. I am officially inviting you -yes, you reading this- to Camp Vagabond! Imagine yourself hiking through the woods, kayaking on the lake, singing songs around the campfire, doing all the summer camp activities you know and love. It's not just a dream! As Camp Vagabond's head, I'm inviting you (and any AEs you choose to bring) to a fortnight stay at camp!
This a... what do you call them? A ski lodge? So unfortunately I can't guarantee your safety. But I'm sure everything will be fine, there's nothing to worry about! Please fill out this form before arrival.
