WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 1


common room.


Similar to the rest of the architecture, the common room in the Winter Dorm is almost more reminiscent of a tea room or parlor that you would find in a manor. A chandelier hangs above, everything in the room glistening in the light that is both welcoming and just a tinge cold. Seating is available for a number of people to gather, adjusting each week to seemingly accommodate a little bit over the number of people assigned to the dorm. A piano doesn't sit too far, and sometimes when the room isn't too full, it's almost like a beautiful classical melody will begin to play itself to make up for the empty space.

Or... is that a showtune...?

Who can say?

This week, there appears to be some new festivities set out.

specialty room.


However on the first floor, there's an oddity amidst the serene architecture. One of the rooms opens to a Gaming Lounge, complete with screens that stretch across the entirety of one wall length-wise. Incredible comfortable chairs and couches sit opposite the screen, comfortable enough to steal you away from the outside world for hours upon hours. A series of gaming systems are hooked up to the screens, and a small tower of handhelds sit on a bookcase nearby. Every game you can think of is downloaded and programmed onto each device, though every time you start one up it seems to immediately pull up an otome game or farming simulator. The lighting system changes between a rainbow of colors, and one wall is lined with snacks that are a little less decadent but still just as delicious. The room will adjust based on the needs of the game you play, a wall spinning out to roll out DDR dance pads, virtual reality goggles, or whatever you could need for the ultimate gaming experience.

No, it isn't incredibly reminiscent of Dude Perfect's Game Time Lounge. You're imagining it. (But really, click the link for a better idea of what the room looks like.)




Please use this as an open post for members of Winter Dorm. You may post top-levels whenever you'd like and go wild. A new post will go up at the start of each week.

Take some of the painkillers or whatever. Those help.

[she shifts immediately to make it comfortable for him!!]

Don't overdo it.

Bad to mix with alcohol. One kind of painkiller breaks down and is processed through your body via the liver, the same as alcohol is. Other kind can lead to upset stomachs and stomach bleeding when combined with it.

[ he waggles the bottle, takes a sip, but then puts the top back onto it. ]

I'll take some before we're all knocked out, though, that way I don't wake up completely miserable. And you're all babysitting the two of us, so I think I physically can't overdo it?

[ i hope that this comes up again and all beau can remember is kon's voice, a la the peanuts adults. ]

Fair enough. I told Adora that she could count on us, since we'd be counting on her, so I can't exactly tell any of you to buzz off. [ small snort ]

But... I don't know. We don't even know why we're at Wiwaldi. We'll have to go over everything that happened to us and to Catra's group, to see what the fuck the commonality is.

[it absolutely will]

Yeah. Yeah, maybe we can sit down tomorrow if... shit doesn't go completely off the rails. [she rests a hand on his arm, absently.] If you guys wanna go over shit with us and I can take notes, I'd be down.

That'd be cool. [ he's down for it. ] I told Viola I'd send her an account of what happened, so that she could have a point of reference for looking into all of this shit.

But I want to tell you guys, first. Whenever - [ his hand and fingers twitch in a you know kind of gesture without disturbing her touch. ] Not gonna be able to cook meat for a while, I think.
