GRAVEYARD

graveyard

students in time out: 10


It's a little hard to wake up when the melody that drifts into your ears is so comforting that it'd be so much simpler to stay asleep. Maybe everything that you remember last - the cold seeping into your fingertips, the pain of injury, or the darkness creeping into your vision - will just be parts of a bad dream.

But it's not.

When you wake up, it's probably a little disorienting - you have to push off a blanket and rise from this nice comfortable mat on the floor. Seems like you were all curled up for nap time. Literally. The room that you're in has furniture meant for small humans, children as some might call them, and everything is soft and plush to the touch with rounded corners. Blocks with the alphabet etched onto them, coloring books and crayons, and even a rocking horse dot the room to really give it that childish charm. If you can think of a child-safe toy, it's probably in one of the baskets that line the shelves of the room!

Around the room they'll find baby monitors that broadcast the antics of the living. Hopefully that doesn't feel creepy.

There is a yard outside through the glass doors, but it currently seems to be locked - and the glass won't break no matter how hard you try. There's a large pink door that feels enormous, ten times as tall as you, on one side of the room, but there's no way through that either. At the very top, you might see a directory sign that says: TO ADMINISTRATION BUILDING.

Huh.

Well... for now, get comfortable. It looks like you might be here a while.

[He blinks, brow furrowing slightly as he looks down at the macaroni.

Wtf is macaroni, anyway.]


...It does not have teeth.
wtfox: because they had and i quote "calamari on the hoof" (you abruptly started screaming)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-23 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[she picks up a piece of macaroni (that has not been in her mouth) and holds it out to him.]

Bite it. You'll see.
souheki: (a-zhan)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-23 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
It is... food?
wtfox: why did i wake up next to a stuffed swordfish? (riddle me this)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-23 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[a beat.]

It hasn't been cooked yet, but yes.
souheki: (watermelon)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-23 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[He looks so dubious and there's a long, awkward pause like he's debating whether he's just not going to do it, but finally, he delicately puts the noodle in his mouth.

...

Hmm.]


...Sharp.

[HE HATES THIS. WHY.]
wtfox: deal with it (i'm cuddly bitch)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-23 09:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Told you it bit me.

[she looks at their reference image, then at their macaroni, then at their reference image again and. sighs.]
souheki: (op)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-23 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't sigh, but he does give Principal Bear another withering stare before he turns his attention to the painting.]

You recognize this?
wtfox: you might be wondering if that was a typo ... it's not (i got locked into my place today)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's from the Sistine Chapel. Oh, but you've probably never been to the Vatican, have you?

[she shrugs]

Anyway, it's a really famous painting, so I'm not sure why they want us to make it out of macaroni.
souheki: (wwx fanart)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, none of those words mean anything to him, which is probably apparent from the lack of recognition on his face. He glances down at the painting and their, uh, supplies, gingerly reaching for more macaroni to start kind of… arranging it? Like pieces of a puzzle? It’d be easier just to grind it up into a paste for paint…]

Does it hold significance?
wtfox: deal with it (i'm cuddly bitch)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
It's supposed to show the moment in the Bible when God created the first man.

[she looks at the picture again]

...it's not really accurate to the text, but like, most religious paintings aren't.
souheki: (s2)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Hmmm… he tilts his head slightly.]

Could it be relevant here?

[No, lwj, it’s probably a fuckin meme]
wtfox: you might be wondering if that was a typo ... it's not (i got locked into my place today)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
The next part involves yoinking a rib out of him to make the first woman, so I hope not.

[it's just a meme, my dude.

(smash cut to six weeks from now when it turns out it was, in fact, relevant.)]
souheki: beautiful art by Jae (Default)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
“Yoink”?

[I’m never playing a ye olde again]
wtfox: but with my new knife sharpener i have a lethal razor sharp pizza cutter, fuck with me mario i dare you! (talk shit all you want)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
[she decides to just demonstrate it!



so she snatches the macaroni away from him.]


Yoink!

[a beat.]

Now picture that but, like, with a rib.
souheki: (op)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Hm.

[SOUNDS VIOLENT.

But I do not wish to consider modao creation myths so he’s just going to accept it and get to work on this stupid art project.





…At least, he’d like to. But instead, he finds himself popping another raw macaroni in his mouth, then narrowing his eyes slightly as it bites him again. WHY THIS]
wtfox: there was a yo-yo incident... (i'm going to be later than expected)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[she does the same thing!



except she spits it out onto the ground and then crushes it beneath her heel.]
souheki: (facepalm)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[He sighs.]

This will be difficult.

[DO THEY HAVE TO DO THIS]
wtfox: and i have lost all faith in humanity (i'm currently watching a guy eat cacti)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
Why did the bear give us something that could hurt us?

[ why! :( does principal bear! :( hate them!]
souheki: (fluffy and warm)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps because they are easily crushed.

[He’s gonna do it. He’s gonna make it into paint.]
wtfox: there is a chicken living in your old room ... so i would assume cleaning that is now on them (also in case they didn't tell you)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
[it's still macaroni art if they do the art with a macaroni-based paint...]

Should we just, like, crush them all then?
souheki: (準備して)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
[No one said the macaroni had to be whole.]

Mm.

[Gracefully, he gets to his feet.]

Please place them on the floor.
wtfox: deal with it (i'm cuddly bitch)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[did he say place?



lila is just dumping all of the macaroni onto the floor. farewell.]
souheki: (last straw)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
[SMALL FROWN… he kneels down, carefully gathering all the pieces into a small pile. Look at this extra work you made him do.

But that done, he pulls back his fist, and, with seemingly not that much effort, brings it down hard enough—not only to crush the pasta, but to leave a small dent in the floor.

Oops.]
wtfox: his pickup line was i swear i'm not a serial killer and you went on the date??? (you went on the date?)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-24 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
[


hello.]


Oh, wow! You really would have been able to defend yourself if you'd wanted to, huh?
souheki: (step)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-24 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd intended to.
