[He read the board, made frustrated sounds at the flustered nurse, and came to terms with the fact that he was stuck because of some...possible dimensional warp or something equally annoying. Except this sounded more like a kidnapping as opposed to some sort of accident, which makes this a little more unsettling. But eh, what can he do about it?]

A: [James is strolling down the halls keeping track of -- or trying to, everything is a little daunting right now -- the rooms and where everything is. At one point he's peeking his head in a room, not quite stepping in, before deciding it's normal and in no further need of investigation. Except when he backs out of the room he accidentally bumps into someone; maybe they were walking passed, or were waiting to go inside and just didn't expect the curious teen to back out as quickly as he did without even looking behind him (which he should honestly be more careful of, considering his unfortunate circumstances). Either way, if there's physical contact, you're now sharing a random memory with him! Traumatic, silly, whichever. Oops!]

B: [James found the lounge! He was about to check out what kind of food was stocked in here because, wow -- when was the last time he ate? Except...was that a spider he saw from the corner of his eye? Well whether or not one was there, James grows visibly fearful and climbs on to the nearest coffee table, looking around the area frantically as if the thing will jump out at him from around a corner! The look on his face suggests he knows he looks like a complete fool, but his deathly fear of spiders (that is totally fabricated by his mind from seeing too many shitty memories of spiders belonging to other people) prevents him from giving a single fuck!]

...Shit. [WHERE DID IT GO??]

((OOC: PLEASE READ THIS especially if you're going with option A because he kind of sees random memories on contact, so...))

valueofnothing

[If there was one thing Zero prided himself on, it was being able to keep a sense of direction. When an adventurer goes through uncharted places, they'd always need some kind of map, and to avoid having to worry about light and paper he'd -- through Rufael's help -- trained himself to just mentally map out areas he'd gone through. When one had an archangel inside of them, photographic memory of an area tended to be something low on the list of "hard to do."

So of course, the Campus had started shuffling. Apparently, it had a pretty nasty sense of humor and wasn't pleased he'd come back, so Zero had ended up all over the place, on ceilings, on walls, and once somehow hitting a light fixture face-first. It did seem to eventually take pity on him, thankfully, which is why Zero is currently outside and staying there, near the cliffside.

Well, he can't do much in the building as it is right now... but he doesn't like just sitting down and waiting if he can help it. Which is why he's practicing his magic some, anywhere from manifesting Rufael's wings to focusing his elemental magic into bursts in case it's needed later.

Of course, not expecting anyone to be out this far, he's not being all that careful with his magic besides using a low force of it... which means someone stepping in the wrong spot at the wrong time could find themselves, if lucky, just barely avoiding being hit. If unlucky, however... they might instead be on fire, thrown around and tussled in a strong wind, or out and out electrocuted (if only mildly).]

[It's been a few days since she's spoken to that Dragon!Snake right? And knowing something had gone on between him and the other Snake that lived in The Campus. It was probably about time she went to make sure things were fine with him in the forest where he had decided to make home. Though she's still pretty intent on getting him indoors where it's probably going to be much safer for him.

Before she leaves she gathers some food stuffs and supplies with extra blankets and the like, just incase he needs them for warmth. She's not entirely sure what kind of welcome she's going to gt but she's determined as ever to try and at least reassure the guy he has at least one ally he can rely on whilst he's here]

Hello...?

Other Snake? It's me again! The annoying younger dragon that you don't seem to care all that much about! I brought food and...uh stuff?

[Hmm, you know it's kind of hard to know where you're going in the forest when you're not entirely sure where you left someone in the first place. Hopefully she won't run into anything too creepy out here when she's clearly unarmed with the only thing to defend herself with are a few apples.]

wildcard_of_the_desert

[Has a creepy, stalkerish or just plain rude valentine made it under your doorstep? Probably, at least until Bakura got lazy and stopped bothering. Regardless, do you want to express how you feel about said valentine to him? Then this is the place to do so!]

obeytherod

[Malik's been doing this awhile now. Summoning Ra in the middle of the night and trying to burn through the barrier. It's been weeks and he still hasn't succeed. All he's gained is apparent infamy on a whiteboard in the nurse's office, a lot of sleepless nights, and wasted time.

This time, unlike the others, he sticks around in the aftermath to lay back on the grass and admire the stars. Or maybe he was scorning them with his envious gaze. Even the stars that didn't move in the night sky seemed to have more freedom than him.

He wonders if he's trapped here forever. If he is... Then he wonders how selfish it would be to wish Rishid and Ishizu were with him. All he ever wanted in his life was freedom, and after five short years of coming closer and closer to it, it was taken from him again.

This place was cruel. Even the coolness of the grass against his skin was no comfort to him now.]

((ooc: to bypass any potential goldfishing, each thread is a different night.))

Current Mood: dramatic baby

taintedstar

[After waking up in the Clinic and reading the whiteboard there, Libero decides to check out his surroundings. This college isn't devoid of life, that's for sure. He can sense a lot of people around, though he's not sure if that's a good sign or a bad sign.

He'll pause at the courtyard doors and open them. This looks deceptively pretty, though he can definitely see himself hanging around here often, and being that he has a funny feeling that he's not going to get out of this place anytime soon, he probably has no choice but to do that. It may be the only place to which he can escape to if the others here bother him too much.

He'll look at the fountain further down the path. Libero rather likes the fountain, if he forgets about the cherub. It's not that it bothers him, he just knows he'll be chuckling at it every time he sees it.

He looks at one of the nearby benches. He wants to explore more but it'd be also nice to soak in the environment of the courtyard. Taking a few moments to think about it, he sits down on the bench, and this is where you will find him. Outside. In the courtyard. Not being an explorer.]

itswindy

[Adam liked the whiteboard info hung up in the nurse's office. Pretty much got to the point. When he asked the nurse if it was all true she nervously nodded her head, and Adam decided that she probably has no reason to lie. Unless she were some kind of demon-creature wanting to lure him into a false truth...or something. He wasn't quite sure what to do with himself.

A: That's when he decided to go outside. Clear his head. Which is why there's a blond teen wearing way too much leather and tattoos gliding above the building for about ten minutes, not really minding the cold weather or the clouds. Eventually he comes down on top of the roof with a not so grateful roll -- he may have misjudged that landing there. But he's okay; he jumps to his feet and dusts himself off, when he notices he's not alone. He addresses the stranger with a sheepish smile.]

Not quite windy enough yet.

B:[After his failed attempt at having a decent flight session, Adam can be found in the Arcade. Maybe he should be finding out more about this place, but games! He hasn't seen a working one yet -- not one that he hadn't made himself. And to be honest, making a game from the crap he had to work with back home was only enough to create a pong-level game, which just wasn't as awesome as this.]

Which button is the 'hug' button! [Of course, he means the grab button, but this was his first time playing such an advanced video game -- a fighting game no less -- so give him a break.]

awishforfriends

[With an arcade room in the Campus now, there's no way Yugi wouldn't be there. He's a little late, maybe, but he's definitely set up shop there for today, occasionally moving from game to game once he's finished playing the one he was at before.

Of course, being Yugi, there's no way he'd keep this all to himself, which means he and his other self are swapping control every so often, making finding either of them just a matter of waiting... or coming into the arcade at the right time.]

((OOC: Since I didn't want to make two posts but wanted to play them both, here's a choice for you! You can either specify which of the Yugis you want to meet (the normal one or his "other personality," Dark), or you can just leave it up to me to pick! Just remember that Dark... doesn't take kindly to people who try to actually hurt Yugi, or himself.))

snargon

[ Hey look, it's Snake! He's... smoking a pipe and... wearing medieval knight armor? There's a large red cape strapped to his shoulders, too. He looks like he just came from Medieval Times.

He is standing outside, the cold doesn't appear to be bothering him too much, the snow decorating his mustache nicely. Snake looks, as usual, very grumpy and hard to approach, but you can try to interact with him if you want? ]

[ ooc: hebi here with another snake. this one is from Saft's world. there is a big tl;dr background info thing in his journal, though i still need to work on changing names and stuff, so it's still a WIP! ]

intercom_voice

[The intercom screeches to life as it does, and the woman speaking over it is as condescending and husky-voiced as always.]

Well hello, my petulant pupils! It seems we have some new blood coming in through our welcoming double doors~ Do treat them nicely, won't you? You wouldn't want to make any enemies in this place, now would you?

After all, the school year is quite long, and I have oh-so-many lessons planned for the lot of you! But fret not, the newly opened game rooms in the East Wing should give you something to relax with. After all, study is good for the mind, but all work and no play makes me precious students dull witted and rife with cabin fever.

[You know, maybe it's the fact that she's been stuck indoors for a few days and she's still trying to get comfortable in her new surroundings but today Saft's feeling a little well...irritable.

Scratchy even.

Like really scratchy.

As she makes the rounds around The Campus every now and then she pauses to gave a good scratch, whether it's the back of her neck, her leg, just pretty much anywhere she can reach. What's with this? Are you sure you want to come check it out?]

stealshinies

[Being from Ancient Egypt and all that, seeing the dark, neon-lite laser tag room is enough to make him stumble back in awe. On the wall are vests with a sensor above the heart, as well as a set of guns.

Just beside that is a set of rules that Bakura sure as hell can't read:

EACH PLAYER TAKES ONE VEST AND ITS CORRESPONDING GUN.
DO NOT COVER UP THE SENSOR ON THE VEST.
THE OBJECTIVE OF THE GAME IS TO HIT THE TARGET ON OTHER PLAYERS' VESTS.
WHEN YOU ARE HIT, YOUR GUN WILL TURN OFF.
THE LAST PLAYER STANDING WINS!

Needless to say, he just takes a gun and decides to explore the room.]

((ooc: decided to intro one of the new rooms that I added last week (I'll also add these specifics to the setting page). Anyway, play laser tag with each other, tag around, and have fun! Feel free to handwave your character re-entering the game if you want to keep playing after they've already lost once.

Also, feel free to be a big fat cheater and not play by the rules, if that's how your character rolls! That's the fun of RP, isn't it?))

intercom_voice

[Early morning on the 15th, the building is deathly chilly as well as unusually dark. Even with the heat on people will find themselves wandering the halls and shivering, their breath fogging up in front of them. Anybody foolish enough to try and leave the building will find that the door simply won't budge due to the amount of snow piled against it, and any attempts to exit (or look) through the windows will greet them with a daunting wall of white. Even the courtyard is inaccessible, as is the door leading up to the rooftop.

Outside on the island, it seems a heavy snow storm has blanketed everything in a thick layer of white.]

((ooc: The event will last 7 days, with the first 4 being snowed-in, the 5th being a blizzard, the 6th another snow-in day, and the 7th having the snow melting. A post will be made on the 19th and 21st respectively. You can see the conditions here, and on the weekly weather sticky:

15th Wed: -32~-20°F; 20 mph; SNOWED IN
16th Thurs: -30~-23°F; 26 mph; SNOWED IN
17th Fri: -28~-18°F; 18 mph; SNOWED IN
18th Sat: -37~-29°F; 21 mph; SNOWED IN
19th Sun: -45~-38°F; 32 mph; SNOWED IN / BLIZZARD CONDITIONS
20th Mon: -15~0°F; 15 mph; SNOWED IN
21st Tues: 10~20°F; 5 mph winds; SNOW MELTING

Mingle, tag around, make your own posts and most of all--have fun! If you have any questions just contact the mod account. Characters with magic powers or a lot of strength CAN get through the doors, but those doors won't stay clear for long. The snow is VERY heavy.))

peopledontforget

[Welcome to a classroom decorated like a wedding hall.

The moment you step inside this room, one of two things will happen:

A) You're getting married! It should be the happiest day of your life, except... why are you getting married again?

OR

B) You've been married a long time and you just now realized it! Out of nowhere, the knowledge appears in your head. You are married to INSERT NAME HERE. You live at INSERT ROOM NUMBER HERE. Whether your partner knows it or not...

Let the chaos begin!

...There's cake for all the unhappy couples, of course.]

whitescalesbigmouth

[How many days has it been now since she arrived here?

Eh, forget it. She's just going to find a random dorm room and flop on the nearest bed. Saft doesn't care anymore. It's gotta be better than catching a quick nap huddled down in a random corner of the campus keeping one eye open just incase something kicks off and she wants a piece of the action.

...Apologies if this happens to be your room. Saft's just gonna doze off for a while. She might have also happened to have helped herself to some grub from your fridge too.

Weird girl.]

[To say that Bakura's been in a good mood lately is an understatement.

Thanks to the thief king, he has the eighth key that he needs once he gets out of here. It's frustrating being trapped in this place, but he's spent so long with the Ring's imprisonment that it's easy to cope with this. It's just a waiting game. It always has been.

It's said that the greatest enemy of the immortal is boredom. For Bakura, that's an understatement. There weren't many duelists around, getting rid of people wasn't possible with the curse upon this place bringing them back, and the problem with letting his darker instincts out was that in this place, there was no way to get away with it without word spreading too fast, or his victims recovering. How tedious! Even if he took their souls, this place would probably return them to their bodies before long. He couldn't even pursue the remainder of his collection, with Shadi not being accessible.

So for now, he's sitting on the ground in the courtyard despite the cold, working with a much more mundane hobby. He's making a marionette.

It's not quite finished, but it might look familiar... It looks a surprising amount like a creepier version of a certain young boy with ridiculous hair. It's symbolic! And it isn't the only one there. Hanging over the nearest doorway, waiting to fall down on anyone who opens the door to come outside, is a slightly more intimidating one...]

shadowscall

[If one walks into the gym today, they'll be treated to the sight of a teenage boy playing fetch with a large yellow Labrador. Kai's put a new spin on it, though. He's been tossing the tennis ball through the air, and when the dog's nearly caught up, the ball disappears into a small portal of Darkness to reappear elsewhere nearby. He'd done it as a joke earlier, but his new pet seemed to like it so much that he's kept it up.]

Get it Surge, go on!

[The dog barks as the ball reappears just past him and he skids on the floor, trying to bound after it. Kai cracks up and sinks down onto the bleachers, grinning as Surge finally trots over with his prize, tail wagging madly.]

Good boy!

whitescalesbigmouth

[Well this certainly was new...

Wandering around the campus after waking up in it's clinic is a young woman, she looks to be around 17-19 years of age and more or less looks super confused about where she is right now. Judging from her wardrobe, she clearly isn't from any kind of modern-esque world either, she's in a blue and white tunic.

This doesn't appear to be any kind of building she's used to and it's structures and such just don't seem at all right.

She rubs slightly at the side of her temple and grumbles a little to herself. Normally if she had woken up in a place she wasn't familiar with it'd had to be the work of a fairy or maybe some other magic user - but what sort of person would bring her to such a weird place as this?]

...What is this place?

avian_archer

[ It had been quite some time since the Avian Archer had wandered the Campus. In fact, she found peace in the forest, finding it much more familiar and comforting than being in that building. She had nothing against places of learning, but there really was no learning happening there.

In the forest, she could be with nature, and avoid any confrontations with others during... particular events. For now, she sat perched in a tree, leaning against the bark. Her feathers ruffled somewhat as a cool breeze blew through the leaves, and she exhaled. ]

More cold winds... Another winter comes. My least favorite time of year.

Current Mood: cold

intercom_voice

[Everybody sees everyone's underpants!

By whatever sadistic, poltergeist-like conscious that ruled this place, everything that isn't undergarments has gone missing. Luckily for everyone, tank tops and socks also count as an undergarments, along with the usual.]

((ooc: event will last until the 20th~ available clothing are: socks, plain tank tops, underwear/boxers/etc. and bras. UNDERAGED CHARACTERS DO NOT HAVE TO BE AFFECTED, but if you want to that's fine too.

Have fun, tag your series title, and so on!))
