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.

[“Nice to meet you”??? CALEB????? WHAT THE FUCKING IS GOING ON]

[wtfox]

[WHY ARE THE LAST TEN MINUTES OF TRIAL ALWAYS SO FUCKING WILD!!!]

...what is happening right now...?

[souheki]

[he just slowly shakes his head because he has no fucking clue either]

[wtfox]

...I think people are gonna be upset no matter how the vote turns out...

[souheki]

[A slow nod, as they continue to watch everyone break down.]

…Perhaps we should use our message this week to assure them that we’re alright, somehow.

[wtfox]

...yeah. We were going to try and be more clear that it was us sending those messages, so. Maybe they'll realize we're okay if they understand that?

[souheki]

Is there a way to allude to our injuries healing?

[Or just that… they’re doing okay in general. Not suffering. It’s not as relevant as some of the information they could attempt to pass on, but on a practical note, it might ease their minds and help them focus. On a less practical one—he isn’t a heartless man. No one is happy with this outcome.]

[wtfox]

Maybe we could mention being "good as new," somehow?

[souheki]

[Oh! He nods; that sounds like a good idea.]

[wtfox]

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

[souheki]

"MT" and "CA" as well.

[Since they know for sure(?) that Molly and Crow will be with them.]

[wtfox]

[she nods]

Them, too. And... maybe if there's enough time to see how tomorrow turns out before we have to type it in... we can get the last set of initials.

[souheki]

Mm.

[GOD. Execution...]

[wtfox]

...

[she sighs]

...do you think maybe you could play your guqin later...?

[souheki]

Of course.

[I was opening up a tab to do just that tbh I just have to pick a good song]

[wtfox]

[whew. she relaxes a little.]

...thanks.
