And most importantly, staff members are absolutely not allowed to date each other.
in theory like I do get it but like once you tell people like you're not allowed to date that then you're just gonna develop crushes on everyone that you work with I'm sorry like just don't even have the rule you might as well encourage them to date each other because then they won't want to so Ash isn't a fan of any of these rules but especially that last one because Jeremiah only gets cuter as the days go on okay

Whenever any of the younger campers have nightmares, Jeremiah is the first counselor they go to. Oh, my God. That's so sweet. Jeremiah's hair is growing floppier by the day. Oh, my God. Ash is in so, so deep. Yeah. Oh, there's just one problem with this crush. Two problems if you count Prince Warren's rule about staff not dating each other.

But for that to even be a problem, Ash needs to know whether or not Jeremiah is even queer. Which brings us to a third problem. The story takes place in 2007. Oh, my God. Okay. Okay. Ash had only recently come out himself and has no idea how to ask someone if they are also queer.

Ash is like 65% sure that Jeremiah is flirting with him. Jeremiah is always the first to volunteer to help Ash carry the heavy wooden shields back to the storage shed at the end of the day. The other day they were practicing swordplay and when Jeremiah corrected Ash's form, he was just like a little bit touchier than he needed to be.

That's so real. Luckily, Ash has an incredible opportunity to gather some more evidence. Okay. So one week, Jeremiah's co-counselor is out sick with a stomach bug during their campers assigned one hour a week in the computer lab.

Yeah. So Cody is one of Jeremiah's campers. And before there was the Master of Spiders in Game of Thrones, there was Cody. Cody is 12, but he is way older than his years. He is an only child, so he has spent a little bit too much time with adults. Yep, yep, yep, yep. He's been going to Camp Gondor since he was nine years old.
