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.

[looks at the sign. looks at lwj.]

...I'd argue that until we get out of here we sort of need anything we can get our hands on? Like, you never know what'll help.

[souheki]

If you have specific need of it, then it is not "unnecessarily".

[HE SPECIFIED FOR A REASON HE KNEW YOU'D ALL BE LIKE THIS.]

[wtfox]

Right, but... given that we're trapped here and anything could be helpful, doesn't that mean there's no such thing as unnecessary stealing right now?

[it's not like they're taking it Just Because! probably.]

[souheki]

[Is she holding something she stole?]

[wtfox]

[yeah she snagged a handful of visitation forms so that even if everyone rushes to call their dorm heads and they run out they'll be able to get sally to come visit]

[souheki]

[He nods at them.]

Do you intend to use those?

[wtfox]

Yeah, to get Sally to come visit. I thought maybe we can walk out with her when she leaves. [a beat.] But she told me that she'd bring us better food than we've got here, so if we can't walk out with her, I figure this way we can have her bring us good stuff every so often.

[souheki]

Then it is not unnecessary. [HE REALLY DOESN'T THINK HE'S BEING UNREASONABLE HERE] Taking items with no intended purpose is wasteful and hinders others. If you need them, it is fine.

[wtfox]

But people wouldn't take things if they didn't need them...?

[souheki]

[He just silently stares at her like "yes they absolutely would"]

[wtfox]

[stares back at him like, "really? people would just do that?"]

[souheki]

[stares in Head of Discipline]

If not, then this should have no impact on their behavior.

[If it's just telling them to do what they were going to do anyway, then it should be fine and not bother anyone!]

[wtfox]

Hmm, I guess you're right about that...
