[He is in a scout's hat, and positively bursting at the seams.]

Alright, children, now today we have a new friendly face to add to our group, the? [One or two of the kids mumble something, Hammer saying it with them.] Chipper Cheerful Children, that's right! Now, he's going to be here for the rest of the summer, so let's give him our Chipper Cheerful Cheer!

[Hammer steps aside to reveal Nathan, who has been making faces that do not imply 'friendly', and the group gives a smattering of claps, about three each.]

So, welcome, Nathan! I'm sure you'll enjoy being a part of our group as much as we'll enjoy having you be a part of our group. Now, who's ready for arts and crafts?!

[OoC: Cursed as a terribly cheerful counselor that just wants to bake a cake of happiness and sunshine and feed it to everyone. Also, he has normal-human strength, because I'm not having him kill anyone accidentally. His kids are middle school age, which means they're not as impressed as younger kids, and twice as nasty as older kids. 8)

You know, I think I may actually kill myself before summer's out.

[Still smiling. Like a deranged person. Which, you know, he probably is.

Saya's good at this.] Oh, nonsense. With my help, you'll be able to navigate these woods like you would a sidewalk!

And then I'll be able to help these dear, wonderful children navigate it.

[By which he means take them and leave them there.]

Well, you'll need to attain counselor status first, but I have the utmost confidence in you that you'll ascend the hierarchy with great haste!

What, you mean you don't see me as your equal?

I do apologize, of course I'd never want to do anything to undermine your authority, and I trust you, but unfortunately I must adhere to the regulations of this place-

But I thought the whole point of me being here was to gain a little respect. Learn about responsibility.

If I don't learn that soon... I'm going to be living a life of crime again in no time.

Of course, of course! I shall be sure to allow you as much independence as I can. I'm sure that within the week I shall hardly have to oversee you at all.

Oh, great. I'm sure me and the kids would just love that. [He looks over at the kids with the least friendly grin on his face.]

They seem quite taken with you, yes!

[They are, indeed, staring. Just. Staring.]

Well, my mum has always told me I have a way with kids.

[Which he decides to prove by ruffling some poor kid's hair. He looks so, so uncomfortable.]

She must have been quite the astute woman, then.

What did you just call her?

Astute. [What if he didn't know what that word meant- Oh, but maybe he shouldn't give the definition, because that could insinuate that he didn't find the lad bright. He'd never want to insult him.]

[Well, he has insulted him. And his mum. :|] You know, you really shouldn't bring people's mums into things. I'll have you know she's very clever.

[ANYTHING BUT HIS MUM! D:] Of course, I never meant to- [But a lesson is a lesson.] Astute is a similar word to clever.

Oh. Well, why didn't you just say so?

[He smiles- a little less sincerely than he usually would.] I will do so next time, I assure you.

Now, are you ready for your first day?

Are you kidding me? I was born ready.

Wonderful! We shall start off with a hike. Our group loves hikes, isn't that right? [He turns to them to get half of a group glaring, and half of the group mumbling. He doesn't seem phased.]

All rights, campers! Let's get going.

[He gives one of the kids a thwap across the back of the head, then digs into his pockets for his cigarettes.]
