FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 1


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.

[ Morning of the first day, Caiman's gonna be around decorating the porch with those pumpkins. He has no design sense (or really, Hole's design sense overall is a bit strange) but he's making an effort. Putting all the pumpkins around, dropping fall leaves and smaller gourds. Putting toilet paper on the bushes. All with GHOSTS glowing bright on his back.

Fall Dorm is gonna be the best and most festive dorm damn it.

tuesday

[ there's a sound. a rhythmic rumbling that some of you may recognize as the sound of running washing machines. should you follow it to the fall dorm laundry room you will find:

lux and lalli, sitting on the floor in the middle of the room. they have some board games next to them, though they aren't open. lux is holding up one very tiny sock, while lalli has the other. they both look vaguely confused? also lux is wearing this.

there are several running washing machines, but laundry is only in one of them. one of the machines towards the back of the room is slowly overflowing with bubbles. they are both ignoring it. ]


Well, it was a lesson learned, I suppose?

A Thing

[ somehow everyone is here sometime on tuesday. i am also sorry that it has to be tuesday, but yes he's still in lux's clothes and she's still in his. and people are biting. none of this is relevant? absolutely none of it. it's just a thing.

Anyway, yamato looks serious! yes despite everything else. ]


About the extra credit assignments, I've learned a few things I think you should all know. First, doing them might help all of us out in the long run. The better a dorm "does" in this school, which includes things like extra credit, the more the dorm heads can have access to things like information for us, and other stuff. That's why, if you need assistance doing any of them, I'm willing to help.

Also-- you can share what your extra credit task is with one or two other people maximum privately, but depending on the task it might not count if they learn about it beforehand. Like... having to lie to someone wouldn't work if you warn them, but something that would be impossible without working with someone else is fine. It's a case by case basis, so be careful of the wording.

[ aka ask the mods if you're unsure in a dm. ]

That's all.

WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...

[ So, um.

When y'all get out of your classes and get home, you're going to find that we are missing an entire couch from the common room.

Caiman is sitting there where the couch used to be... on his knees, dogeza style. Sweating.

Our couch is being borrowed... I think.
ghoststrums: (one thing i know is there's a purpose)

[ and now, post everything. yes, yamato helped move the couch. but the rest of the stuff here is. ]

Put those back! When did you even have time to steal those toilet seats?!

[Haha. It's happening again. Well. This time we're a little bit more prepared? Come to the common room and our beautiful new couch. Anyone who would like kitty snuggles may pet the kitty. There's also a plate of chicken from Golly-B?]

. . . So, we're probably in here for a while? Um - we could try board games again? Pumpkin carving? Ah. . . if anyone knows any games. There's the one where you try to throw balls into a cup, but I don't have anything to throw. [He looks like he's scrambling to think of any games.] There's - no, not that one, not that one. Oh, uh, Truth or Dare? [Wait, that's probably a terrible idea, too.] Or something else.

[ is manwol in their suite? is she in the common room? who knows but she's in the dorm somewhere alive. a teenage girl died for this.

yamato figures no one really wants to talk about the dead elephant in the room, so he's settling in the common room. on their stolen couch. he brought pizza again because... well... they got pizza on their sad party yesterday. he is trying. either way he is sitting in the common room if anyone wants to hang around and he is helping the depression mood with his harmonica.

yay parties. ]
