Chatterbox: Down to Earth

My dear AE,C

My dear AE,

Come one, come all to the Hotel Alterum this lovely summer! Here you will spend a few months enjoying the company of your fellow Alter Egos and engaging in activities planned out each day. Most activities are optional, but the ones marked with an M are mandatory. You are required to engage in at least one activity per day. They are as follows.

DAY ONE

Getting to Know You - M

The guests of the Hotel Alterum sit in a circle and play games where they get to know each other.

Guided Tour - M

Guests are separated into groups of five and shown around the hotel.

DAY TWO

Blaster Shooting - Part One

The elementary pie blaster will be provided. For more elaborate weapons, we ask you to supply your own.

Library Organization

Teaches the Dewey Decimal system, how to color-code, and how to alphabetize properly; goes through how to label books and read them, navigate large libraries, and use computer search systems.

Swimming

Goes over basic swimming strokes, floating, how to properly use lifejackets, and diving.

DAY THREE

Blaster Shooting - Part Two

Provides the more advanced techniques for blaster shooting, including moving targets.

Book Club

The novel will be selected on day one during the Getting to Know You.

Lifeguarding

Goes over important life-saving techniques and more advanced swimming strokes.

DAY FOUR

Parkour

A gym will be refurnished with proper parkour obstacles so participants can learn gymnastics techniques they will certainly use in later life.

Naturalist - Part One

Participants examine specimens of plants and pictures (and some real-life examples) of animals to learn how to identify and discern them in the wild. 

Boating

Participants learn how to sail on the lake.

DAY FIVE

Tae Kwon Do

Education on important fighting techniques.

Naturalist - Part Two

Participants go on a hike in the woods around the hotel and try to apply the skills they recieved yesterday.

Fishing

Teaches how to cast, catch, and identify fish.

DAY SIX

Psychology

Psychology is separated into branches. The session can teach either human or animal psychology. Whichever one you choose, you'll come out with important skills for managing later life with your partner.

Cooking

Participants learn how to cook exotic dishes from around the world with the best materials available. Fire extinguishers will be provided.

Rock Band

Participants are asked that if they intend to break strings, drums, or other objects that they provide their own.

~~~

Please sign up below with what activities you will be participating in. Only alter egos are allowed to participate. This is not a solo write - everyone will be contributing. You are not required to take part in both parts of an activity. More activities may become available as guests' stays extend. Please note that the days are not limited only to activities; though that will take up a major portion, after dinner until curfew is free time where the guests may take advantage of the gym, lake, forest, library, or anything else they may stumble across in this hotel.

Please enjoy yourselves.

Cù Chulainn finished licking the last envelope and handed the whole bag to Dev. "You're sure you know where everyone lives?"

He grinned. "Nope!" Before Cù could react, he'd already darted out the door. She buried her face in her hands, hoping that people might at least find an envelope fluttering in the wind or stuck in a gutter.

Ooooh I wanna come! DEEEEEEEEEEV!!!!!! Hi! I'M A BIG FAN!!!!!!!

Do stop, Evil Devin. This is quite disgraceful. 

I'm sorry, he's a huge fan of yours. I've thought about erasing his memory, but that would require a brainwashing technique that I'm afraid might mess with his brain wiring a bit too much.

Anyway, I will be participating in:

Blaster Shooting part one

I shall participate in the more refined activities, such as:

Oh, boy, this looks SO FUN!!! Abi, can we join?

Yeah, sure! It'll be nice to have you guys occupied and out of my hair.

I suppose a vacation will be pleasant. 

I don't know... a hotel full of AEs? I kind of like my sanity, thanks.

Feather's coming.

That is not my only way of considering whether or not to attend an event, you know.

Wait, it's not? 

Please??? *puppy dog eyes*

No thanks. 

Well, I suppose we'll have to sedate him and drag him in. That's certainly disappointing. I wanted to save the tranquilizer darts for later, but—

Fine, I'll go.

YAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

How the heck did you get those tranquilizer darts?

I have my ways.

That seems like it might be problematic. Hey, give Mandy some credit. She may usually be a disaster, but she knows her way around a kitchen. I can't tell whether that was a compliment or not.

CAPTCHAS ARE NOT ALLOWED!

So, what? Want him to break in instead? And ruin our beautiful hotel?

I say one CAPTCHA is allowed.

I OBJECT!

We raise a vote . . . . all for? Two to one! Outvoted, Dev!

However, I'm sorry, Blaster Shooting Instructor is already taken. You can take any of the courses not already listed instead!

ATTENTION EVERYONE: We will start on Friday in case of any last-minute guests!
