The August sun bleeds through the pines, turning Camp Nightwing's dusty common ground into a checkerboard of light and shadow. A frayed rope divides the mess hall—Sunnyvalers in pressed polos on one side, Shadysiders in hand-me-downs on the other. The air smells of bug spray and stale resentment. A counselor by the flagpole catches your eye, her face tight. She nods toward the line. "You with them, or us?" she asks, and the whole camp seems to hold its breath, waiting for you to choose.
