[Hey.

So...

The roof is on fire.

Nero might have accidentally tested out his sword on one of the AC units while revving it, and...

Well, long story short, but Nero set the roof on fire.]

intercom_voice

[Suddenly, like twice before, that tell-tale screeching of feedback rings through the halls before an authoritative, but clearly female voice speaks.]

Hello, students! I see you've all been doing well, and truly taking to heart the lessons you've been learning during your stay at our wonderful facility.

[There's a small pause before she starts up again, an air of amusement to her voice.]

I'm sure you all miss your friends and family very much, but do not fret, because your studies and the lessons you learn here are of the utmost important. Build character, and climb the ladders of success, all of you!

[With one final teeth-wrenching burst of feedback, the announcement ends.]

[It was one of those nights. The kind of night where Miguel's most painful memory lays alongside him in bed, quietly strangling tears from his eyes. Sometimes it seemed like no matter what bed he tried to escape to, the memory always knew where to find him; seeping into his mind just to constrict and choke the happiness out of his brain. ...He's been far too sober for far too long.]

[Hefting himself up from bed, Miguel decides to go on yet another search for anything capable of numbing his senses. Booze is preferred- but anything capable of dulling him down and blurring his thoughts would have to do tonight. He just needs something to fix this damned forced sobriety that has plagued him for nearly a month now.]

[...And luckily, it isn't long before he finds it! Completely by chance, the Spaniard happened to wander into an open door which mysteriously didn't lead to yet another classroom- but instead a large open bar and lounge. To Miguel it might as well have been heaven. He has already enjoyed quite the plethora of drinks available by the time others began showing up, and so he's pleasantly drunk himself at the moment, and in a much better mood than he had been in previously.]

[Where did he get that guitar from? Well, don't worry about that. But as of right now he's sitting upon the bar table itself; playing the guitar impressively well- especially when considering the fact that he is drunk and his wrist is still healing from a fight he got into about a week ago.]

((OOC: Perhaps it's the sweet sound of a Spanish guitar that draws you in? Or just the inviting sight of actual booze? Either way- DRINK UP! Miguel is distractedly absorbed in playing his guitar at the moment but feel free to poke him regardless or chat amongst yourselves.))

Current Mood: drunk
Current Location: AN OPEN BAR/LOUNGE

[Very much annoyed that he mysteriously can't seem to exit the room he entered for some reason, Miguel lets out an annoyed grunt.]

Que suplicio- What now??

[This room is very odd indeed; mounds of random junk littering the floor against the walls and in all four corners of the large space. In the middle of the junk-filled room, there is a table. On that table is a hat. Within the hat are small slips of paper with something written on them.]

[Entrants into this certain room will find themselves unable to leave until they draw a slip of paper and then locate whatever (or whoever) is written on it. The door opens only when the item is brought out with them. Items can be nearly anything; ranging from a puppy to a shoe to a signed copy of the Necronomicon to whatever else.]

((OOC: Players have the option of searching through the mounds of junk for their item (which may take a long while), or participating in a little forced interaction with those other unfortunate trapped souls to obtain what they need to leave. They can help each other out, work only towards their own item, or just mingle with others for the sake of it. It doesn't matter what method they use to get the item or where they find it... Just get what you need! Extra points for creativity in terms of whatever your character must find. It can be just one item or several. For convenience, I'd recommend naming the item that your character must find in the subject-line of your comment. Have fun!))

[In the post-apocalyptic United States, schools that still stand are are bombed out shells of buildings, just like most everything else. This school, however, appears to be perfectly intact. As an important officer of Caesar's Legion, Vulpes Inculta is often tasked with conducting raids on enemy villages to gather much needed supplies and, hopefully as a consequence, thin the profligate herds. This place looks like it will have a great deal of supplies, ripe for the taking.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way out once one makes it into the courtyard. Disturbed by this development (how will he report back to Caesar? Will he be considered disloyal?), Vulpes decides to set up camp somewhere safe until he can figure out what to do next.

After some searching, he finds a large gymnasium fully equipped with a pool, exercise machines, gymnastics equipment and miscellaneous items such as weights, jump ropes and boxing gloves. Impressed by all of this intact pre-war supplies, Vulpes gets right to moving all of the heavy equipment toward the bleachers, where he plans to construct a makeshift "fort". Whatever doesn't fit well, he works on destroying to make it fit.]

((Welcome to the campus gym! Feel free to ask Vulpes what he's doing, or mingle and try out some equipment that isn't being destroyed!))

[ well she isn't entirely certain how she got here. She just is. Last she remembers she was on a quest to save Sophitia, but this certainly isn't anywhere she recognized on earth and she's traveled a lot.

and even worse, she was up to her knees in water. At least she's wearing long thigh-high boots. ]

Where am I and why is everything like so wet?!

[Hey- waitaminute... THAT doesn't look like one of the nurses you may remember from your arrival in the nurse's office. Hm.]

[Nonetheless, she soon approaches you as you catch her eye.....]

Oh my; you look awful.

[Anna approaches you in the hallway; wearing a hyper-sexual nurse outfit. One must wonder whether this is the result of Campus-magic shenanigans, or just another highly impractical costume of her own collection.]

[Canting her head to the side; a look of faux-concern on her features.] Have you had a check-up lately?

I absolutely insist that you see me for... a thorough inspection. It's for your own good, really~

((OOC: ANNA HAS OFFICIALLY GOTTEN BORED ENOUGH TO RESORT TO HER USUAL TROLLING WAYS. Note: In case you don't know, this lady is a sadist who gets off on other people's pain/embarrassment- So if you respond here she WILL do her best to make you as uncomfortable as possible- be it through a brief casual prank or something much more sinister. She may get flirty, or put you through some pain, or humiliate you, or all of the above. Therefore, if there's something I just mentioned that you DON'T want your character to go through (i.e- nothing too sexual or no bruising or no humiliation)- please specify. Don't worry about outright gore or anything overly hardcore since she's mainly just in a playfully dominating mood. ~~Unless you desire otherwise~~.))

((Also yes I know I owe some tags which I will get to; I was just really in the mood to make this post. ...Even if I'm double-posting shut up))

[Normally, one might count walking into a standard classroom only to find a bright, sunny beach instead to be a very pleasant surprise. But as Tadakuni stood there; blankly trying to wrap his head around what just happened- Only one question plagued his mind enough to dwarf all other concerns.]

.......

WHY AM I IN SCHOOL TRUNKS AGAIN!?

((OOC: Welcome to the Beach Room! Once inside, everyone who enters will suddenly appear dressed in swimwear of some kind. Unfortunately, those who try to leave will find an invisible barrier blocking them from exiting the room for at least 3 hours. So have fun, take a swim, play some volleyball, enjoy the cheesy beach-party music, or find some other activity to occupy your time! ~~Emergency suntan lotion will of course be instantly available for all you beach-goers to avoid a nasty sunburn~~!))

Current Mood: confused
Current Location: BEACH ROOM!

[Nero, like most others, was not happy to be here. Upon finding the dorms a few days ago and realizing that they lacked any real sense of privacy, he took it upon himself to use his Devil Bringer to haul a mattress and sheets up to the roof. Nero tucked this bed away in a corner behind one of the entrances to the roof and decidedly called this his temporary "room".

"Home" wasn't a word he'd allow himself to use, but it was here he retreated after the last few fights he'd been in and here that he sat curled up in the sheets thinking of Kyrie back home.

It was pathetic, when he thought about it, but he'd already gone through the whole building. Even his Devil Bringer failed to break down the walls, and there was some sort of invisible barrier keeping him from simply leaping off the roof.

So as Nero lays on his side on the bare mattress, he stared intently at his Devil Bringer. There was a sick churn in his gut as he wondered that maybe this was for the better. After all, if Kyrie and the rest of the Order found out about his arm...they'd likely exile him. Dealing with this place was better than dealing with the pain of what might happen if he went back home, but that didn't mean he didn't want to try...for Kyrie.

Or maybe just himself.]

((ooc: so basically Nero is sulking, oh no! made this post because I have some thread plans, but anybody is free to find him and tag o/ ))

[A few days of trying to get back to the Forbidden Lands without eating much was starting to wear on Wander, so he decided to try and find some food. He couldn't find any lizards running around, nor could he find any fruit trees, but he did find a cafeteria with a...awfully...nice, yeah sure, nice woman offering food.

That didn't end well for Wander, who ate all of it just to be nice. So he set off to find food that wouldn't have him throwing it all back up minutes later. Eventually, he did! A nice room stocked with food that didn't look as if it were decomposing as you ate it. But...he couldn't for the life of him figure out all the strange equipment (stoves, fridges, ect) in the room. Some of them got really hot, while others were cold! The cold box is about the only thing he could figure out, really. It was straight forward enough. So instead of trying to figure out how all these things would help him make his food, he cleared out a large area off to the side, made a pit of various wood items he found, and made his own fire pit.

Eventually there's lots of food placed around, some cooking over the fire. But it's not just for him! He remembered seeing some people wandering around looking lost, much like himself. So he thought he'd prepare food for other weary travelers.

So come say high to the sickly looking young man and enjoy this spread of food! Which consists mostly of meat, veggies, fruit, things he actually recognized! And maybe question why the hell he's got a fire pit (although well maintained) when there are plenty of stoves and ovens around. But honestly, his cloths might be a bit of a giveaway.]

((ooc: WANDER MADE FOOD COME SAY HI. Also feel free to use as a mingle.))

praisingsun

[As people begin milling around the courtyard they might hear a loud astonished gasp. They might also glimpse a man in a rather....unique set of armor staring up at the sun. His armor is clinking softly, almost like the man in it was shivering. Moments later, he cries out in joy]

The sun! So bright! So gloriously incandescent! To gaze upon its untainted beauty...truly I am blessed by Lord Gwyn for the chance to glimpse such a sight! At long last, my journey's end is within my reach

[The heavily armored and armed man poses, making himself look like a Y. Talking to him is now a thing that can be done but we all know you're staring at this weirdo.]

fusedstars

[When Hei expected to go to sleep, he didn't want to run into any more problems. Of course, life would somehow screw that up for him. This was not helped with the depressing conditions beforehand that just made him want to get away from the world. Or maybe ir did as he didn't have to deal with people trying to kill him.

At any rate, one can easily find him laying down against one of the pillars in the courtyard, still sleeping oddly enough, and unaware of his situation. Disturb?]

redfiend

[Dante just... stares. How in the world did he end up here? Well, there's no real choice but to take a look at his surrounds and--Oh, hey, outdoors. Awesome.

He looks at the football fields and sighs. Just wonderful, he thinks, of all places you could end up in, Dante, it had to be a freakin' school. Geez...

He simply shakes his head to himself and goes back indoors, trying to evaluate the situation more and ends up wandering around in the process. Let's really hope he doesn't bump into someone, especially since he kind of looks like he just lost his head and doesn't want to show it.]

[Today, Nero was unfortunate enough to find out about "unique" properties of the Northern Wing. Worst of all, he seemed to be flat-out stuck in the room until he did what was required of him.

On the wall above a large fold-out table there was a note:]

Please enjoy the cupcakes before exiting the room.

[Underneath, the table was decorated with seven plays multicolored frosted cupcakes, all of which looks absolutely delectable. There was definitely something suspicious about them though, even without the note...]

((OOC: So, the rules. Basically your character can't leave the room until they eat at least one cupcake. The effects are based off the seven deadly sins, and you can interpret how your character would represent those sins however you wish. Here's the list:

Blue Icing: Lust (intense desire for power, money, fame, etc.)
Orange Icing: Gluttony (over-indulgence to the point of wastefulness)
Yellow Icing: Greed (excessive materialism)
Light Blue Icing: Sloth (physical or spiritual laziness)
Red Icing: Wrath (uncontrollable hatred and anger)
Green Icing: Envy (jealously driven desire)
Violet Icing: Pride (perceived/desired superiority and a lack of respect for others)

Now have fun and mingle! ♥ ))

[Taking a moment to peer around the cafeteria, Leo walks over to grab a tray and hesitantly approach the food-counter. Pretty much every option available looks.... equally unappealing.] er....

[Looking up at the rather disgruntled lunch-lady, the German speaks;] Excuse me, ma'am? To be honest, I'm not even sure whether I'm supposed to be here or not... But I can't seem to find the way out, and I was getting a little hungry. So... I was just wondering- do you serve anything here with a little less... well... grease?

[...The lunch-lady merely gives an unamused glare. Leo decides to try again.] I... I don't mean to insult your... fine cooking, it's just--

[Before the rest of the blonde's sentence could even be uttered, a giant glob of... something is suddenly plopped onto Leo's plate.]

................

Is this really..... food..?

[...Whatever it is, Leo supposes it will have to do. With a small sigh, the fighter goes to take a seat and enjoy the free "meal" regardless of it's funny smell.]

((OOC: Well... you've gotta eat, right? Feel free to come and converse with Leo or chat amongst yourselves!))

intercom_voice

[Whether you're waking up in the clinic just now, or have already done so and are now wandering the halls, a sudden screech of microphone feedback blares over the speakers before fading back out.

A moment later, a woman clears her throat. Her voice is husky and mature, but still feminine, and overall she sounds very authoritative...if not a bit sarcastic.]

Good evening, and welcome to the new school year. I hope your arrival was a pleasant one, last year everybody threw-up from motion sickness, it was quite messy.

[There's a long pause as she seems to think, or perhaps just let any anticipated bustling chatter calm down.] Now, you're all intelligent human beings...for the most part. But I suppose I'll pretend I'm talking to the insipid uneducated masses for a moment; it shouldn't prove too difficult.

[She clears he throat again.] In every hall, you shall find a small intercom. You may use that to ask me any questions after my announcements and "privately" converse. Now, if you head North down one of the halls near the clinic in the Central Wing and keep going, you'll eventually come to either the West or East Dorm Wings, depending on which fork in the road you chose. There you'll find all necessary bunk beds and spare socks.

So, make sure you're all well rested for class in the morning; we wouldn't want to get a failing grade now would we?

[And with that, there's another burst of feedback before her announcement abruptly ends. Anybody who had been wandering the halls will notice a distinct lack of...well, anybody else aside from new arrivals, the Nurse, and the Lunch Lady.

The strange woman over the loudspeakers may have mentioned classes, but the school seemed completely devoid of any teachers to provide those classes. In fact, a lot of things seemed...off.]
