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.

[


that actually gets her to smile.]

Good.

[battling]

I'm a North Wizard. I got my pride.

[wtfox]

...well, let's put that pride of yours to good use. I don't know about you, but I refuse to spend the rest of my time sitting in a stupid daycare center.

[battling]

This ain't the afterlife I wanna be trapped in.

[wtfox]

How about let's not be trapped in an afterlife at all and just get back to our actual lives?

[battling]

[Very bluntly:] We'll all die one day.

This ain't my final restin' place.

[wtfox]

[just as bluntly in return:]

It's not mine, either.

[battling]

Guess we'll just have to do what we can from this...

...

[Where the fuck are they.]

Place.

[wtfox]

However much that might be. The glass won't shatter, unfortunately. [even though they can see the yard right there!!] And there's the matter of the bear's keys...

Hopefully we'll get more information, somehow. The bear said the activity we did earlier in the week would help, but I haven't seen any sign of that yet.

[monday, though...! hypothetically.]

[battling]

Nothin' instant on this side, huh?

Sucks, ain't like I can use magic here either.

[wtfox]

Not so far. [she sighs.] It's been a whole lot of waiting, and I don't like waiting very much.

[battling]

Don't know anybody who does.

Love t' break a window and get out that way.

[wtfox]

Unfortunately, that won't work.

[alas.]

[battling]

Already gave it a try, huh? Damn.

[wtfox]

...if the bear's keys are found, maybe we can get out.

[battling]

Dorm Heads seem like they can contact the bear. Should be possible.

[wtfox]

Here's hoping that happens sooner rather than later! Being stuck here is making me irritable.

[battling]

Ain't exactly much t' do. Gets real borin' real fast.

[wtfox]

...well, hopefully whatever helpful thing the bear was talking about will liven things up a little.

[battling]

No hints on what it is?

[wtfox]

Nope.

[battling]

Surprises...

[He's not particularly enthused.]

[wtfox]

Either that or lies - the bear could have just been trying to keep us busy.

[she shrugs]

...but it'll be obvious enough if it's lying, and it'd be pretty stupid to tell such an obvious lie when we're already mad.

[what "we". lwj is chill.]

[battling]

We're all stuck in this room together.

[Which is fine with 7, but think about how full this room might end up...]

[wtfox]

[she doesn't want to think about that!!]

Well, maybe we'll get lucky and some of the construction on campus will be for a bigger daycare center. Or something. Then we could move.
