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.

Comments

[wtfox]

Agreed. I didn't think what we said before was too long, but... I guess it was long enough.

[heartlands]

They... should know we're here from what we wrote last week already, right?

[wtfox]

They should know that we're here and that we're okay, yeah. And I'd assume they'd expect whoever joins us to be here and okay too.

[heartlands]

Is there anything else that's really important for them to know? I don't think we know anything big that we can... safely tell them.

[wtfox]

Maybe we should remind them the bear's been here the whole time and hasn't had anything to do with any of these murders.

[heartlands]

Didn't we already tell them we're with the bear...?

[wtfox]

Yeah, and people still brought it up at the trial today.

[headsplitter]

'BEAR AND DEAD OK AND SAFE NO CRIMES HERE'.

[wtfox]

That's nicer than I'd have phrased it.

["STOP TRYING TO BLAME THE BEAR, DUMMIES"]

[headsplitter]

Being mean would be funny but we've got a character limit!

[wtfox]

Right. So we just have to figure out what's most important for us to say.

[something else occurs to her, then -]

Oh. And we might want to put our heads together, too... the item to bring someone back isn't the only thing that was on auction this week. There's also going to be an item that can let them talk to us more directly, right? Do we know if it'll be all of us as a group, or just one of us?

We'll want to make sure that no matter who ends up contacting us, and who they end up talking with, we know what to say.

[headsplitter]

Oh. Good point. Well, it's probably not gonna be me since I don't know them.

Pool people who seem most likely? Bradley's Fall Dorm, maybe they'll want to contact him if Fall Dorm gets it. Rupert, Byleth, and Catra killed, so maybe they might be asked about motive 'cause of what happened with Otome today.

Or you know. Probably Molly. Just to see that he's okay.

[wtfox]

Or Adora, when she gets here, for the same reason...

[if she gets here.]

...or Sieghart, to ask who killed him?

[headsplitter]

Maybe. They'd probably be super worried and want to know that Adora didn't, just, you know.

[ Poof. ]

Well, that's like. Already over half. We might as well just keep everyone updated at that point then.

[battling]

[Bradley radiating slight annoyance. Caiman was in Fall, Aikawa should also be in Fall.]

[heartlands]

Speaking of which...

[a beat, before:]

Do any of us, like, really want to go back? I mean, I'm assuming people on that side are going to choose on their own based on who gets the item, but - if there's anyone who really wants to leave here, it might not be a bad idea to try and include that in the message, assuming that won't make it too long. But it might be a good idea to talk about now anyways, so we can tell them when they use the communication item.

[wtfox]

I mean, I definitely want to get out of here. No offense to any of you, but I'm over daycare.

[...]

But I think some of us are a lot more likely to get picked than others. If it's something that lets them choose who to bring back, everyone on the living side is going to have their own opinion about who it should be regardless of what we say.

[headmt]

I, ah ...

[Uh, well, it isn't the prettiest of emotions. It's ugly and selfish and he misses them terribly right now, in this moment.]

You know I'm-- ... Did you know I'm actually the impulse control of the three of us?

[souheki]

I do not mind staying.

[Just, y'know. To make it clear.]

[ercnerd]

I also want to go back.

But there are things to be done here as well. If they pick someone else, I'm not going to be angry about their decision.

[battling]

Like to, but don't expect to.

[Shrugs! He doesn't seem to have very strong emotions about this.]

[headsplitter]

[ Chinhanding here. ]

I don't wanna go back up there, so you guys can have it.

[chevaliered]

I mean, I think most of us want to go back? I know I do? But whether or not we will is dependent on a lot of things. [ that and two of the people he very genuinely misses just exploded or got themselves a ticket straight to daycare so it’s cool it’s cool it’s cool



it is not cool. ]

[heartlands]

Then I'm not sure telling them again will make a difference...? But, I mean - even if they did, it's not like they can vote for the bear, the worst thing that happens is that they might waste time discussing it.

[wtfox]

...yeah, that's true. Even though it came up today, they still...

[caught two killers



again!]
