At The International Pathfinder Camporee with a friend!!

[rimouskis]

alright, question for the esteemed jury (though I imagine this will be a uniquely american, if not perhaps also canadian, experience):

are you familiar with the children's game that involves slapping hands around a circle while singing a song that begins "down by the banks of the hanky panky"

and if you are, how did the rest of the song go for you

[i-wanna-linger]

gonna be back at camp on saturday and sunday :)))))

on saturday i’m running zip line with our favorite 70 year old man (/gen) and sunday i’m doing boating with one of my old camp besties who quit halfway through summer of ‘22 but she’s back!

looking at the schedule i’m pretty sure the troops are getting there before we do so reeeeeeally hope i don’t have to fight them for parking spots

tho thinking back to the other spring events i’ve worked like that the main parking lot wasn’t crowded at all so idk

Like. It is difficult to express how much I know and care about cats.

I had a cat fancy subscription from the ages of 11 to 15 because I was obsessed with cats. I had every book on cat behavior that I could find in my library. I tried to get my teachers to call me Alli Cat. When my girl scout troop was assisting younger troops at camporee, the troop leader had us name ourselves "[Herb Name] Bear" - like "cinnamon bear" or "tarragon Bear" and I asked if I could be cat bear and if i could put a cat on the teddy bear tee shirts we were making and she said no so I got out an encyclopedia and found out that catnip was sometimes called cat mint so i called myself Catmint bear and put a cat head in the tree on the shirt design and claimed it was a bird's nest. My girl scout silver award project was collecting donations of food and money for an animal rescue to help cats.

You know how there are horse girls? I was that but with cats. I had eleven cats at one point. I *adore* cats. In the eight grade class people voted me "most likely to become a crazy cat lady."

So when people come at me with "oh but it's cruel to keep a cat inside, you can't do that and keep them mentally healthy" or "it's natural to let cats roam, they aren't doing any harm and it's perfectly safe" they are not only getting into a "discussion" with a pathologically argumentative research junkie, they are doing so with a pathologically argumentative research junkie who has been terminally annoying about cat behavior and welfare SINCE I WAS A TWEEN IN THE NINETIES.

so you can see, perhaps, why this feral cat situation drives me, specifically, insane, and why I'm utterly incapable of being normal about this.

Ooh, okay, nice! Thanks for doing this one.

Sorry my response was a bit belated, though.

Idea from @tokuvivor woodchuck camporee! <3

Day 206 Season 1 Episode 11- Camporee

[ihavedyscalculia]

Edward Pikeman is a First Class Cedar Scout and the senior patrol scout of Wood Scout Troop #818.

Appearance

Pikeman has auburn spiky hair, in a style similar to that of David's. He has a pale complexion and canary yellow eyes with snake-like slit pupils. He has acne on most of his face, and buck teeth with braces. Pikeman is shown to wear a beige long sleeve button up, a pair of gold epaulettes, a wine red sash, and juniper green trousers. This is the Wood Scout Senior Patrol Scout uniform, as the other Wood Scouts in Troop #818 dress slightly differently.

Personality

Pikeman claims that enrollment into the Wood Scouts has reached an all-time low, so they have 'no choice but to forcibly recruit new members'. He has no qualms about torturing and kidnapping other campers in order to keep the Wood Scouts going, as seen in "Scout's Dishonor" and "Camp Loser Says What?". Furthermore, Pikeman also likes to 'raise the stakes' by making bets that frequently put Camp Campbell on the line, which has occurred in both "Camporee" and "Jermy Fartz". He also gloats over the idea of taking over the camp once more in "Follow the Leader", but Campbell opted to end the activity and have the kids go out and retrieve his package from Spooky Island instead. He even has his fellow Wood Scouts trying to recruit people to their camp during "The Lake Lilac Summer Social".

Even though he is shown to be manipulative and borderline obsessive about annexing the rival camp, he isn't completely heartless. When Daniel revealed his intentions about sacrificing the people of Camp Campbell in "Camp Loser Says What?", he valiantly defended them by putting himself before the cult leader and informing him that he'll have to sacrifice Pikeman to get to them. Of course, Daniel is happy to do so, which leads him to regret the decision. Although he is ultimately sent home, his goal remains to continue agonizing the Campbellians.

Pikeman is rather sensitive over his acne, becoming upset after Max tells him that his 'face looks gross' in "Scout's Dishonor". He seems to also be insecure about his nasally voice. When Pikeman tells his version of the events of the evening of "Operation: Charlie Tango Foxtrot", he is depicted with perfectly clear skin and a much deeper voice.

He has also shown to act misogynistic on two occasions thus far. He informs Sasha that "this is America, where men take charge!" in the episode "Follow the Leader", and telling Gwen that "the men will decide what's best for you" in "Camp Loser Says What?"

Trivia

Pikeman is one of the few characters to have his last name revealed, along with Gaylord Nurfington (Nurf), Preston Goodplay, Cameron Campbell, Neil Armstrong Jr. (Space Kid), Jermy Fartz, Billy Nikssilp (Snake), Stephen van Petrol (Petrol), Dolph Houston, Meredith Miller (Ered), and Cameron Junior "CJ" Campbell.

Campbell, in his typical way of misnaming people, has called Pikeman "Teddy" when his first name is Edward.

In the episode "Camporee" he is shown to have a crush on Gwen, and repeatedly makes passes at her whenever he can, such as asking her to dance in "The Lake Lilac Summer Social" and showing up to the mess hall with red roses in "Time Crapsules".

Pikeman had a pair of night-vision goggles and a Yugoslavian army knife that were placed in the Box Of Confiscated Items in the episode "Follow the Leader"

So is karma living in Greenland? What did their mom look like? Poor butler.

Interesting question, Anon!

Well in present time, Karma didn't live in Greenland, but was there for training purposes for about 6-7 years. He, along with his brothers, was registered in this private camp called Dead Dove International Soldier Camporee (DDISC) to develop keen survival and social skills. This camporee is infamously known for its brutality and social pressure, which is why the application process is extremely meticulous. Not anyone and everybody can just go and do it. They must be 21 or higher to enter the course.

But unfortunately, the Sangre family is known for their competitiveness in the cartel world. And so, they pulled some strings to allow LITERAL CHILDREN to be raised by bloodthirsty soldiers. Luckily, they weren't left on their own, but rather supervised and cared for by their own mother - who was a past student of the course.

Speaking of the mother, she has beautiful red hair like Karma's, but has shades of pink, and thicker hair. Her eyes are green, and wears heavy lipstick. She's known for her flamboyant appearance, as well as her terrible mom jokes by her children and staff.

Also yes - poor butler. When you're working for the Sangre family, you have to learn to keep your mouth shut. Otherwise, you'll be buried along with maggots 6 feet under (lol?).

[disastercit]

a couple of old ross drawings I found (I wanna say 2021-2022?)

the second and third ones go together as one comic (you can probably tell I wasn't comfortable drawing people facing right, so I just planned on flipping it later. makes it kind of hard to tell who's who, top and bottom left panels should be flipped)

all of them (but mostly the first one) came from an awkward point in the Ross Lore Development where I had the whole woodscouts thing down, but the "involuntary hostage at camp campbell" bit wasn't around yet. unenthusiastic woodscout cheerleader ross at the camporee could still be canon (except instead of actually rooting for camp campbell, he's just not thrilled because he simply cannot summon that kind of energy).
