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.

Their Dorm Head? Since he's involved with the whole assimilation purging aspect.

Oh - you mean Chad? He has a name, you know...

[anyways! thinking about it.]

No, I think telling them anything I know from him still runs the risk of the whole dire and unpredictable consequences thing.

That's the one.

[ Lots of people have names, he's just incredibly fussy about the ones he chooses to use. ]

We'll go with lettin' them know we're still around. Wonder if they could use those communication device coupons to contact one of us?

Oh - maybe, if they think of it! I mean, if anyone got a new one of those, that is.

Those coupons work for two weeks or until they're used.

If they've still got 'em maybe they can connect... Dunno if they'll think of it if they think we're all dead forever.

Right, but I only know what people got from the activity with the debates, and by the time they get our message, those will have expired, won't they?

Last I heard, Maya was trying to buy back her spirit channeling. The projected price was steep, but she could potentially reach us with it once she completes the exchange.

As for the coupons, there's already speculation of our presence here. Someone could jump the gun before our message goes through.

Shame, ain't it? Wonder if the coupons'll double up or if they be a totally different set.
