Undeserving of your Sympathy

This contains all character and plot relevant posts from the main active participants in "Camp Awesome"/"Camp Entre" from the original Truffula Flu run that ran 2012-2013 as of what was available Jan - May 2026.

The order has been altered to make better narrative sense, but it's imperfect. For the cases of missing/deactivated blogs, in particular: Swag, an archive was used to supplement some posts, but it doesn't contain them all. So please refer to @survivialswag-archive for more solo posts and asks for Swag for more context.

As a warning, please note content and potentially triggering warnings for gore, flashing gifs, needles, loss of sense of reality, memory loss, age regression, blood, human death, as well as animal death. Scroll and read with caution.

A further note, some of the mentions, language, and humor are very dated to the time-frame. The mods do not agree with much of what was written anymore. As well, please keep in mind this was largely all Live, improvisational, as in decided in-the-moment. Asks also would influence the direction and paths plots and character development would take.

-groans and coughs-

-lays his head back and stares at the ceiling for a while-

...I don't know who that is, heh.

I guess you're right. I mean...about the...no need to get out of people's way if you're not in it. I still...kinda feel like a burden, especially now, but......I guess having an extra brain, even if it's sick and slow and not that great, is better than...not...

-huffs and laughs lightly before coughing- That came out weak..

I know I do. Everyone else already said so. -rubs at his forehead- I still feel really warm from the fire...

......Okay, no, I probably have a fever...

......

...-sighs-

.........

...I just don't see how I can make things better. No matter what the others say. What the hell can I do? I'm just one guy... I don't even fully understand anything. There's probably way more qualified people already working on it. All I'm doing is chasing down some ....thing...that I probably won't even find.

And how can I live with myself if things never get better?

I think I can drink it this time...heh.

-picks up the medicine bottle from nearby and takes a quick swig- -winces- -drinks a few large gulps of water before pulling it away with a cough-

Ungh...

-lays back-

-pulls the covers up over himself- ......

...I know, but......sometimes...I don't really see the point. -groans and stifles a cough- That...was more honest than I meant to be.

...

-allows Dave to lead him away, giving a quick, apologetic glance towards the remaining people-

-steps awkwardly up the steps and inside-

-flops over into the bed and starts taking off his shoes-

-clears his throat and coughs a few more times weakly-

I...-coughs- I'm fine. -tries to take a drink-

-starts to cough and nearly breathes it in- Ugh! -coughs more-
