Good morning!

Good morning . . . Are you by any chance new to Camp?

[goingknowhere]

Am I that obvious? And here I thought I was playing it cool.

My name is Peter. Most people call me Star-Lord, but my name is Peter.

It's the helmet . . . I'd have noticed you earlier.

I'm Cindy--Camp Shoe Sales Representative according to the counselor job roster here.

[goingknowhere]

Ah...that makes sense. Sometimes I forget it's even there.

Nice to meet you, Cindy. Do you get much business out here selling shoes?

[justwannahave]

Superhero-type?

Nope--business is shoddy, even worse than in New York. The market here seems to run on the vaguest principles of the barter system, though the bars like it if you pay in cash.

[goingknowhere]

There's not very much that's "super" about me, but I try.

And that doesn't surprise me at all, I don't think I've seen any form of currency since I've been here. I don't even think I get paid for this.

[justwannahave]

We have both the regular masked heroes and the ones with powers too.

Oh yes, that's the other thing about the jobs here . . . What's your job?

[goingknowhere]

I'll be filling in as a security guard. That was already my real job to begin with, except on a more ah...universal scale. So my responsibilities for now are a little bit easier I guess.

[justwannahave]

Um . . . Sorry to burst your bubble, but you might have arrived at a less than peaceful time.

[goingknowhere]

If it's less than peaceful, then I guess I'm here at the right time. I prefer to act fast anyway. Have there been a lot of issues lately?

*gestures at the not-ominous-at-all countdown clock*

That just showed up and it's got people worried. Even without the viruses and the weird fun fair, Camp is still pretty unpredictable on a day to day basis.

[goingknowhere]

...Yeah that might be bad, I take it this isn't for a New Year's Eve party. Unpredictable is fine though, I can do unpredictable.

[justwannahave]

Used to surprises in your line of work? That might be helpful here except for the part where people still don't know the cures for most Camp effects . . .

If you see a virus that looks like a machine, don't let it touch you--the attacks have been increasing of late.

[goingknowhere]

Plenty of surprises, but it's mostly just cosmic nonsense which can be a real pain in my a-...

Anyway, I think I'm mostly protected from viruses as long as I have my gear, but you never know. Thanks for the heads up though, much appreciated.
