camp vargas ~the happening returns~ 3-1 "freaked out for nothing"

[mandytl]

 

 

Location: Dwarfs’ Mine - Campsite

Crackle, crackle…

Idia: Maaan, respect for the grind. Keeping an eye on our campfire's real work.

… Anybody out there?

……Nope, not a soul.

Gaaah, what a chooore. This outdoorsy stuff is high-key not my thing.

Now that I’m done with our campfire, my motivation’s zero. At least they chose me for the lookout job.

Nooow. Time for me to just laze around and chill.

I gambled on whether he'd find out or not, but handing him my backup phone was the right choice.

But man, Premo is seriously the GOAT. I enjoyed the stream of that river rafting episode in real-time, but…

Who knew that stuff about starting a fire would be so useful. …I only realized how incredible it was after verifying it myself.

Camp Vargas’ll be mere child’s play with my phone! Better check their other archived videos while I’m at it…

Rustle…

Idia: ……! Wh-Who’s there?!

…Maybe the wind was ruffling the bushes. Ugh, I freaked out for nothing.

Fheehee, this director’s running them ragged too. Better leave a timestamp in the comments…

Rustlerustle…

Idia: Eek?! Th-The sound’s kinda, getting closer than before…

W-WAAAAAAAH!

Time passes.

Film Club Member A: Good work. I’m here to take over watching the campfire.

Ortho: Okay, thanks!

Now what to do… I want to try fishing, so maybe the lake.

Oh, right. I remember Nii-san’s supposed to be watching the Board Games Club’s fire.

If that's the case, I should go visit him before I go.

How’s it going, Nii-san? … Huh. He’s not here.

Hm? Is that his phone on the ground…? What’s it doing in the grass?

Also, a video of Premo is still open on the screen. I can’t imagine he’d ever abandon his phone and just… go somewhere else…

That’s just not right. Something bad must’ve happened to him…!

Now’s not the time to camp! I need to activate my functions and go find him!

The mountains have too much natural cover, resulting in poor visibility. I can conduct a more thorough search from above.

Anti-gravity device activated. Shifting into flight mode.

Mmnh, doesn’t seem like he’s anywhere nearby. Guess my only choice is to check all of my sensors until I find him.

Heat signature sensor activated.

Mapping complete. Quadruped organisms were excluded. Begin search for Subject: Idia Shroud.

Wait for me, Nii-san. I’ll find you, I promise!
