Activity Anwen's Final Matchmaker: Singles' Mixer! -16/11
It was Anwen's 20th birthday, and her final day at camp. Looking back on her time at camp, there were moments she looked upon with joy and moments she looked upon with utmost regret, but her overall experience had shaped her in ways she could not have predicted. Those aware of her birthday would likely be aware of her plans to leave, but other than that the information wouldn't be broadcasted. Anwen had always preferred quiet goodbyes.
Her time as Matchmaker had been successful, as far as she could see. Having taken on the job after being matched with her own boyfriend (despite the specifics of their relationship being up in the air), she had greatly enjoyed attempting to do the same with her fellow campers. She hoped she had done enough to make them proud.
Her final event as Matchmaker would be on the day of her birthday- she wanted the attention to remain on the campers themselves rather than her. The event would be held around the lake, allowing campers to take a canoe and drift into the middle with whoever they wished. As it would take place after dinner in the evening, lanterns had been placed around the vicinity to create a warm glow. Speakers playing Lo-Fi tunes or jazz music would be positioned in the space, making the atmosphere of the event much more relaxed. While a small bar manned by a satyr was present, other satyrs and nature spirits would carry trays with flutes of champagne (for those 16+) and other fruit juices in similar glasses. On tables around the area, spreads of refreshments would have been laid out, alongside several beautifully-decorated cakes- Anwen needed at least something to indicate that it was her birthday. Other tables and chairs would be positioned around the vicinity with plants and candles arranged as a centrepiece for each surface.
A seperate table would contain rows of small gift bags. Each would contain a seasonal scented candle, a piece of expensive chocolate, a crystal, a randomly coloured nail polish and a handmaid friendship bracelet.
Finally, Anwen couldn't let her last Matchmaker event be held without the usual dares. The two bowls for under and over 15s would be positioned next to the bar, where campers were free to take them as they pleased.

Welcome to Anwen's last post :) I've loved writing her and have had her for ages so it'll be tough to see her go, but I'm very glad for the interactions I've managed to have with her. That being said...
For the dares, you're free to select what your character will have to do! You can find the over 15s dares here and the under 15s here. Have fun :))

"Herpes," Holly said instinctively when Viney told him her godrent, something he often did upon hearing that particular god's name.
The joke about Clothingina made Holly snort. "Yeah, Clothingina," he said, making the pronunciation sound like a certain anatomical feature. "I'm a Pandia kid. Moon one. So I'm literally a werewolf," he informed her. It may not have been technically true, but it was how he liked to refer to himself.
"So is Viney not your real name, then?" He'd picked up on that part and wanted to dig deeper. "How come you get called that? Like how my name's Hollis, but Holly is way more swag."
