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.

[well, at least molly should have his head on straight when he shows up here.

lila thinks that, but doesn't say it, because that's not the sort of thing a nice, sweet girl would say.]


...we probably should. I'm not sure what, though.

Well... I know there were a lot of things I couldn't say when I was alive, but I've been able to talk about everything since I got here, so I wouldn't think there's anything we can't write.

We tried to tip you guys off that we were able to write things on there by saying "hello" in each of the languages we spoke, before. [she gestures at herself, lan wangji, and our erstwhile mod characters] I'm not sure how much of that got across, so maybe we should do something more obvious.

Maybe, "Boo! Ghosts are writing this message!" ...wait, that's technically two sentences. "Boo, ghosts are writing this message!"

Oh, that's kind of cute... Do you think it would get blocked or something if we put in all of our initials? Although, hopefully they wouldn't need it if we mentioned ghosts. Like, what other ghosts could there be?
wtfox: i'll be your captain for today's voyage (welcome aboard the s.s. struggle)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-07-03 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
There's only one way to find out, right?

[personal profile] heartlands 2021-07-03 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! So maybe something like... Boo, ghosts - and then all our initials - are writing this message?
wtfox: and no one found me until the morning but i have fifty missed calls (apparently i disappeared)

Or "haunting the marquee," maybe. If we're going with the ghost theme!
