Daily 031: 1139 words, One Last Farewell
author's note: sobbing crying this isn't happening why does it have to end </333 this session was so fun though rahhh

You stare at the screen, frowning. This feels vaguely familiar, somehow, as though you've done this before.
But not quite. Last time was a greeting, this time is a goodbye.
Words begin to appear, and a sad smile curled up the corners of your lips as you read the title.
One Last Farewell
Guess what, it's time for thank you notes! I had so much fun writing these haha
(as a quick note, these are in no particular order! there's no “ranking” or anything lol I just wrote them down as they popped into my head)
First off I must begin with all the wonderful, wonderful people of SWC. Every single camper is awesome and amazing, and your writing skills are unrivaled. I read so many stunning pieces this session, stories that alternately broke my heart and put it back together again. Campers from all different cabins, from all over the world, cheered me on as I struggled towards my goals, goals that I never would have reached without y'all. Motivation mangoes were showered on me from all directions when my fingers refused to cooperate, goat-apple-toad wars gave me something to comment stalk for, and perhaps funniest of all is the mystery that I successfully pulled off for over two weeks (maybe I'll tell you at the end–but no cheating and scrolling there before you've finished reading!)
Next comes the one and only MOUSE <33 Mouse you're literally so cool and such a funny friend; I've really enjoyed getting to know you better over this session and thank you so much for being so patient with my art procrastinating :') Your writing skills are to die for and your cabin aesthetic and theme was super awesome :00 I'm really bad at expressing myself lol but thanks for stopping by to say hi and rant about Bella singing You're Welcome /j /lh
Third is the lovely BELLA Bella I know this month was kind of rough for you but you were super amazing and I loved the way you randomly came and spammed me with Moana lyrics LIKE FOR REAL it put a smile on my face and made me feel like part of the gang rahh <33 You and Mouse do such a good job with Mangoes and Mayhem and I can't wait to see what you guys cook up for the next episode after the hiatus is over.
Oh, and now that SWC is over and I can actually focus on other things without telling myself “NO GO DO THE DAILY,” guess what it's time for! That's right, the much-anticipated You're Welcome animation is coming soon to your local theaters!!! (not literally of course lol)
Fourth is the hardworking VI !! Vi your matching FVA pfps were so cool and I'm keeping mine forever <33 (well…until next session, of course XD) You were a really awesome coleader and I loved being able to work with you. Additionally, it was SUPER cool to be able to roleplay with a fellow SWCer–I love when my interests and people I know cross over hehe. As always, your writing was a whole other level of gorgeous, and you worked so hard for the cabin rahh <33 Thanks for doing whatever it took, even if it meant adding infinite word-updating comments.
Sixth is BRIAR Briar thanks for being brave and trying something new, even if it meant stepping out of your comfort zone a little. I absolutely adored reading what you wrote, and you did a really good job. Cheers, and here's to trying something new!
(Plus, now we have so many more inside jokes to share!)
Seventh is CHLOEEE thank you for starting the apple-goat-toad war and starting something amazing and hilarious. I have a little surprise for you at the end, but you have to wait and read all of your thank you note first
Anyways Chloe you were so funny and I loved following along with your detective work and Sienna-goat essays. You're still on trial in the basketball court…at least until your lawyer finally shows up and finishes the case (granted, I don't even remember what you were accused of but you're not off the hook yet bahahaha).
Eighth is MY SAVIOR POPPY you literally saved me from total despair as I waited and waited for a reply to come in concerning my weekly critique and also from absolute boredom. Your writing left me speechless and your critique comments made my day–one of the things that makes me happiest is people appreciating my little stories! Thriller's really cool and y'all totally deserved first place (don't worry, you still have today to claim your rightful place on the leaderboard! I believe in you guys hehe)
Ninth is uh uh I forgot :')) I'm probably missing a TON of people so if you made it this far here's a mango for you! That counts as including you, right?
Oh and tenth is of course the wonderful daily team members and hosts!! You guys are what makes camp possible and we forgive you (mostly) for torturing us with Gurtle and later Balrog-gurtle.
Okay phew got all those done
What
You're still here?
Ohhh yeah
I remember now
I was gonna tell you all about my adventures playing piano with two fingers and three toes!1!!
nah just kidding
you're here for the secret, aren't you?
well-
the troll climbs out from under the bridge, back turned to the eager campers gathered on the shore. slowly, Grumpy turns around to reveal himself.
Or should I say herself.
Or should I say CHUEY!!!

That's right, folks! The mastermind behind Grumpy the bridge troll was none other than myself! Surprised?
I gotta say, it was really fun to watch you guys, especially Chloe, try to puzzle out who I was. Once I even accidentally revealed myself by replying to a comment while I was on my main account–luckily, I was able to delete it before anyone saw. Being Grumpy was wildly funny and y'all's theories were even funnier. I hope I entertained you as much as you entertained me–and with that, I'll bid y'all farewell! Here's to another successful session of SWC, and all the spectacular campers!
Bye <3

oh wait
you're still here?
huh. guess you get a bonus scene then!

the figure in the mask hid behind a cabin, fiddling with something that most definitely shouldn't be fiddled with. Something sparked and hissed as the Herald of Doom prepared the portal, a feral smile stretching behind the faceless mask.
Balrog-gurtle and the hobbit hole were only the start. The Herald had bigger plans.
Now, to wait until next session, for then the fun could begin in earnest…
ok I'm done for real this time adios



but what happened to number five?
guess you'll never know…
