FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 2

[dormheads]

common room.

The common room of the Fall Dorm has soft, dimmer lighting; plush carpet over wood; and several comfortable chairs and sectionals. A few big windows overlook the dormitory area of campus, but there is also a single, cozy bay window on one side.

A television and bluetooth surround-sound are here for Fall students who are more inclined to be tech savvy. In the cabinets under the entertainment stand are an assortment of board games, but the television does have a generic "free tv" app for shows and music.

Above the enormous center fireplace is a moody painting.

This week, there's something else.

specialty room.

Through a door on the first floor, there is an antigravity room. Stepping just a few feet through the doorway will lift everyone up into the air. The seating and most of the rest of the room remains somehow rightfully in place on the floor and will not move. Students, however, can grab pillows and blankets, cups or bowls, or other small items to bring into the air with them.

Please use this as an open post for members of Fall Dorm. You may post top-levels whenever you'd like and go wild. A new post will go up at the start of each week.

[he.

picks her up by the waist to set her down on the ground. stop. the table.

except then he sits on it it's fine.]

While I like the enthusiasm, we should probably come up with a better plan than just stooping to their level...we have to be better.

[ghoststrums]

Taichi.

[ don't be!! a bad example!!! ]

[goalsides]

[he just grins? what? he's being a great influence!]

I'm teaching her how to apply herself, what's wrong with that?

[ghoststrums]

[ ... sighs and accepts it ]

Pick a good one and nothing gross.

[headsplitter]

Oh!! We got a good newbie in our dorm!!

[goalsides]

[thank you caiman he appreciates the support.]

I agree we should do something nice for Summer, but the other two are fair game as far as I'm concerned.

[headsplitter]

Summer... [ God why is it always summer. Rip Sally. ] Winter also got shit done to them so it's probably Spring anyway!

Hmm... What are you thinking?

[goalsides]

Hm...something bigger. Something they won't expect and something they can't just fix right away like we just did by throwing Lalli through the door.

[...]

Cows don't move after they settle in one spot, right?

[do not plant cows in front of the dorms.]

[ghoststrums]

What?

[txt]

... Are you suggesting cow tipping?

[Taichi, please.]

Well, I guess if you figure out a way to move them in the first place... [H... How do they move the cows... Moo...] What about one of those vehicles from the farms? Take a few components out, and viola! It's stuck there for the long haul.

[alitaba]

[ oh. okay.

she just crouches next to him like a mini gremlin instead ]

Sooo no shaving cream on their faces? Covering their entire sitting area in Christmas wrapping?

[goalsides]

[patpat.]

...we could wrap their entire dorm in wrapping paper. Think we'd have enough for that? At least their front entrance and tie it off with a bow.

[alitaba]

[ she beams ]

There's only one way to find out!

[darksubverted]

[What are yall DOING down here, jesus christ. He crosses his arms at the door way.]

You guys are thinking harder, not smarter. I don't know how many vouchers you have, but if you each pooled one together, you can ask me for something to help you get revenge.

[ghoststrums]

[

the forlorn face of someone who promised to use his vouchers to buy something to protect himself and thus can't spend them yet ]

[darksubverted]

[Yamato is so valid.]

[goalsides]

...[there's a grin.]

Hmm...we'll get back to you on that.

[he's very pleased with himself at the moment, it's fine.]

[darksubverted]

Take your time. If the other dorms will even wait on you.

[lifeless]

Vouchers... [...] But I have so many clothes I want to get.

[she looks genuinely conflicted]

[darksubverted]

It's up to you to make the choice.

[illuminance]

I'm surprised that you would encourage this behavior.

[darksubverted]

I could say the same to you.

[Luxanna.]

As long as you all aren't hurting anyone, I don't mind. They started it.

[katzepaw]

Luke, how many vouchers would it be for a cardboard cut out of Claude. I would want him to be wearing a tuxedo for the formal. The kind that has a lot of ruffles. Also, I would want the tuxedo to be patterned like his underwear was, light purple with little deer and arrows. And he is holding out a rose to you and he is looking very charming at you like he wants you to go to the formal with him.

[He's explaining all of this so seriously.]

How many vouchers would that be?

[ghoststrums]

[ hiding his face in his hands but his shoulders are shaking so you can tell he's laughing ]
