The Inspection
On the whole, the weather had been temperamental lately. One minute, it was absolutely bucketing it down, and the next, it was bright sunshine. The amount of rain had turned the ground into a muddy mess, but at least the tents provided perfectly adequate shelter, and a gazebo had been erected over the community dining table to protect everyone from the elements.
Despite the temperamental weather, however, it had been fairly warm throughout the past two weeks, so the chill in the air during dinner that evening was particularly noticeable, even before the dark, hooded figure by the Ministry's representative's desk had been seen.
Nervously, the Ministry representative approached the table.
"I'm afraid we have a visitor," he said, addressing everyone at the table and hoping that anyone not there could hear him. "This is a Dementor, one of the Guards at Azkaban. It's a high security prison. He's just here to, well, ensure that a certain escaped criminal isn't hiding amongst you.
"I don't expect he'll be here for more than an half an hour, so do try not to worry too much. They can make people rather, well... uncomfortable."
Bowing his head slightly, he left the Outsiders to their meal.
[And so, a Dementor is lurking around the camp, just in case one of the Outsiders is secretly Sirius Black. They're known to sap the happiness out of the environment, and - in cases where there are true horrors in someone's past - cause traumatic memories to resurface.
The chilly, depressed feeling can be lifted by the deliciousness of chocolate, though the Outsiders will need to discover this on their own. Good thing there's dessert.]

no subject
[she is starting to sound a bit listless. Whatever's wrong with her, it isn't going away.]
no subject
[That was a lie, but there was no way he was going to look stupid. He had asked tons of questions about the Dementors...but he had never realised until now the full extent of what these things did...it was weird that he wasn't feeling anything more than dread.
But April was starting to look more than a little ill now, and Vaati edged back as much as he could.]
You should probably go back to your tent if it's affecting you this badly.
[...wow, he sounded like too big a jerk even for him...she looked like she was going to cry...]
I don't think the dementor will bother you there.
no subject
I'm going to. I don't know why anyone would sit around and just let that thing leech off 'em.
[And with that, she'll turn to go.]
no subject
[Vaati turned back to the food, but his appetite was somewhat lost with the Dementor still there.
At least dessert would be on its way soon....]
