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.

w3, saturday - trial watch...?

[wtfox]

[lila sees this on the baby monitor and groans aloud.]

Oh, come on, that's not what we meant...!

[heartlands]

At least we’re going to be more clear this week...?

[wtfox]

Maybe we should add "and also the bear has been stuck here with us the WHOLE TIME" to the message.

[heartlands]

Ghosts, our initials, and the bear?

[wtfox]

"Ghosts HT, KH, LWJ, LR, ES, BB, R are trapped in daycare with the bear and haunting this marquee"?

[heartlands]

[nodding!]

Yeah, I like that.

[wtfox]

[she thinks about it a little more...]

Or maybe "locked" so they can hopefully figure out why we asked them to look for the keys.

[heartlands]

Ooh, yeah. Locked should help them figure out that we might be able to get out of here, too.

[battling]

[Closes his eyes for a second.]

Maybe we should just say we're trapped in daycare.

[wtfox]

"Help us, we're locked in daycare with the bear!" Or something like that.

[battling]

Clearer we are the fewer misunderstanding's like that are gonna happen.

[wtfox]

I mean, I wouldn't immediately assume a bear was involved with murder because its keys are lost, but that's just me...

[battling]

They got a lot goin' on. Might be a little panicked.

[But also maybe they're a little bit dumb?]

[wtfox]

It's a little too early in the trial for them to be panicking, don't you think? They've still got hours.

[battling]

Eh.

[Some people are just prone to that.

Though they do seem to be handling the evidence around Caiman pretty well.]

[souheki]

[Lan Wangji is just sitting here and watching quietly. No guqin this time--there are more people here, now, and he doesn't want to be distracting. His brow is maybe 0.2% furrowed, which means he's tense, but he's paying attention.]

[wtfox]

[no guqin? no wonder lila is irritable--

anyway, she's just. frowning. as she watches the trial play out tbh.]

[souheki]

[STOP HE WILL PLAY LATER when a lizard isn't being blamed(?) for decapitating a clown]

[wtfox]

[i for one cannot WAIT to find out what actually happened here]

[souheki]

[PLEASE let Lux be responsible for this and it just went horrifically wrong]

[wtfox]

[HOW HORRIBLY WRONG WOULD IT HAVE TO GO FOR MOLLY'S BRAIN TO HAVE DISAPPEARED????]

[souheki]

[Maybe SOMETIMES you try to mind-control a lizard into killing a clown and he accidentally does a lobotomy and then loses the brain which is then eaten by carnivorous geese LISTEN I DON'T KNOW]

[souheki]

[Okay well after that hot mess of drama Lan Wangji is definitely going to be playing his guqin! He'll go through a few different songs, I will throw some out for your listening pleasure. this one, this one, and this one. Please enjoy as we all calm down from Castmates Suffer Endlessly: The Trial.]

[wtfox]

[thank you for keeping lila calm, lwj]
