FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 1

[dormheads]

common room.

The common room of the Fall Dorm has soft, dimmer lighting; plush carpet over wood; and several comfortable chairs and sectionals. A few big windows overlook the dormitory area of campus, but there is also a single, cozy bay window on one side.

A television and bluetooth surround-sound are here for Fall students who are more inclined to be tech savvy. In the cabinets under the entertainment stand are an assortment of board games, but the television does have a generic "free tv" app for shows and music.

Above the enormous center fireplace is a moody painting.

This week, there's something else.

specialty room.

Through a door on the first floor, there is an antigravity room. Stepping just a few feet through the doorway will lift everyone up into the air. The seating and most of the rest of the room remains somehow rightfully in place on the floor and will not move. Students, however, can grab pillows and blankets, cups or bowls, or other small items to bring into the air with them.

Please use this as an open post for members of Fall 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.

Got a marker?

[ It's fine, he's fine. Don't worry about it. ]

[dormheads]

I guess it's part of being a Dorm Head.

[ghoststrums]

... I don't know why I asked, neither of those things mean anything to me.

[silentscout]

[He has a pen, so Bradley can draw with a pen.]

[silentscout]

[He gets! So frustrated now! Communication is hard and he gets so irritated when people can't understand his half-explanations.]

Then tell me if you want truth or dare instead!

[battling]

[ He'll write with his left hand, onto his right forearm.

It looks like a backwards B, and then a few scribble marks. ]

[ghoststrums]

Truth. Don't snap at me.

[ he's not in the mood !! ]

[silentscout]

What does it mean?

[He can tell it's some kind of symbol, maybe.]

[selfestheim]

[ after yamato's question, he's actually starting to look...not as closed off as he usually does? like, noticeably so. character development! ]

Truth.

[selfestheim]

. . . So is Kissa a magic cat or just a normal one?

[battling]

It's my name.

[In his normal script.]

[selfestheim]

...thanks for being here. And, um. Sorry again for being short with you that first week. I've...gotten better since then.

[illuminance]

[ hmm, well she just tried truth, so: ]

Dare, this time.

[selfestheim]

Oh, like...your world and Otome's.

—And, uh, what about... what's your happiest memory with your brother?

[silentscout]

[>T!!!]

What's that thing?

[He nods to the thing in Yamato's hands. It's the only question he can think of right now.]

[silentscout]

Kissa is a normal cat.

[silentscout]

It looks like a sigil.

[ghoststrums]

[ oh. hm. it's depressing to say anything from before the divorce, but he's also totally blanking on anything more recent. ]

Ah... I doubt Takeru remembers it. But when he was a kid, he said my name as his first word. Kinda hard to beat that.

[dormheads]

I'll be okay.

[hilariously because he bumps the table a bit again when he turns.]

[battling]

That how ya do your magic?

[dormheads]

[why does everyone pat him]

You can stop saying that so casually.

[silentscout]

That's how Icelandic mages do magic.

[silentscout]

....why don't you just sit down for a while?

[battling]

[you are so cat shaped]

Nah, don't feel like it.

[battling]

Huh. I have... 's not like I made it, but I got a magic circle when I do magic.

Got some paper?
