The girl stops and looks perplexed. She looks over her shoulder and then back at you and seems somewhat anxious.

It is night soon but yes.... maybe just for a little while.

"Awesome, then c'mon lets, like, camp here." Greta points at a comfortable spot, as much out of sight of the office as she can find. She pats the spot beside her as she sits down. "C'mon, let's talk. So, what's the story?"

He turns to look at Greta distracting the strange girl. He shakes his head. That Greta's really got a timing problem.

He calls out, jangling the cabin key. "We'll just check the cabin ourselves, then."

He carries on to the cabin and unlocks the door, giving it a check for basics. Electricity... state of the beds... dampness and roof condition.

"Well at least we aren't the only campers. Though, I would feel a bit better if we knew who our neighbors were..."

Esko takes a few steps towards Cabin 4 while waiting for Dalvin to unlock the door. Not wanting to intrude on the other campers privacy, he tries to see what he can through the window with the light on without noticeably being a peeping tom.

Mikko joins Esko. As they walk toward Cabin 4 he begins to talk, almost rambling really, as the deal with the bird still has him feeling ungrounded.
"Even if that cabin works out, do you really think you could sleep in a place like this? I don't think I'm going to sleep." He asks Esko.

Mikko turns his attention to the windchime.
OOC:
What kind of windchime is it, what does it look like, is there a theme to it? What sort of chime sounds does it make? (e.g., wood, metal, etc...).

OOC:
The wind chime is made from copper tubes attached to a small wooden block, it looks old and possibly homemade. It makes continuous spur of high chiming in the evening wind. It's not very loud but noticeable.

Esko looks to the lit cabin but doesn't see anybody. There's a kitchen table behind the window and two glasses on it, next to them there is a plastic bottle of dark coloured soda.
Dalvin opens the cabin door. It's a bit rusty and swollen so it's heavy but it opens with a push.

The cabin is spartan to say the least but it looks relatively clean and dry. There is an old leather sofa on the right side wall (long enough for one person to sleep on it). In the middle of the room there is a wooden dining table for four people with two benches. On the left wall there is a bed for one person (there is a mattress but not sheets). On the left corner on the back there is a door to a bathroom and next to it a kitchenette (a hot plate, fridge and a sink with a cabinet). Over the kitchenette there is a sleeping balcony and ladder to reach it on the right corner. There are windows in all the walls but the window at the back of the kitchenette is covered with plywood. The glass seems to be broken on one corner.

Greta sits and the girl joins her looking a bit awkward. She speaks quietly:

"Me and my brother live in cabin 4. Cabin 5 is always occupied...... Mother and father live in the office building."

The man from the reception yells out:

"Eeva, get back here, there's work to be done! Don't bother our guests!"

She gets up and heads to the reception.

Dalvin grunts, reporting to the others on the condition of the cabin.

"Not great, but it will have to do for the night. We'll be out of here tomorrow morning. "

He climbs the ladder to the mezzanine level, to check the mattresses up there too, then he will claim one bed for himself.
Dec 29, 2023 7:39 pm
Greta sighs as Eva rushes off to answer her father's call, and heads back to the cabin to join the others.

"Well, she's a loser," Greta announces poking her thumb at the departing girl. She walks over to the sofa and sits down, testing it for a nights comfort of sleeping. "I'll take this one. By the way the loser kids, like, sleep in Cabin 4. Cabin 5 has a permanent guest. Sigh, why is there like no mobile signal, sheesh."
Dec 30, 2023 6:47 am
Esko walks back into the cabin and feels a bit awkward for being paranoid after learning that cabin 4 was the two kids, but quickly shrugs it off.

"Thanks Greta, though somehow I don't feel much comforted by that fact. I'm not sure who would want to stay here permanently, but it can't be for the company," he says as he inspects the interior, "or the ambiance."

He calls up to Dalvin, "Guess I'll be joining you up there if there is room."

There is room for two on the mezzazine level above the kitchenette.

"Sure, there is room for two up here," he replies to Esko.

He unpacks his sleeping bag from his backpack and rolls it out on one of the mezzanine mattresses.

Greta lays out her gear beside the couch, and then rummages for some snacks while she stars forlonly at her phone's screen, re-reading old DM's.

Mikko throws his pack on the bed along the left wall. Then he fishes out his charger and looks for an outlet to plug in his phone.

Mikko finds an outlet to charge the phone.

The night seems quiet, except for some rustling of the wind and the eerie chime from the porch next door. You fall to sleep after a long day.

Most of you sleep anyways.... when in the middle of the night you hear a thumping sound. It seems to be coming from the roof. Something seems to be happening.
OOC:
Please everyone - give me a "reaction roll" with 1d6 to see who gets to react first. If there is some good reason your character is a light sleeper, you may roll 2d6 and we'll read the highest.

Okay.... Greta and Mikko are still asleep.

Dalvin and Esko you wake up on the dark mezzazine when you hear some thumping sounds above you. Somebody's at the roof. You also hear something from below. Outside, maybe behind the window or the kitchenette.

You hear a dripping sound - like something smallish is dropping from the ceiling on to the wooden floor. Thump thump thump thump.

What do you do?
