WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 2


common room.


Similar to the rest of the architecture, the common room in the Winter Dorm is almost more reminiscent of a tea room or parlor that you would find in a manor. A chandelier hangs above, everything in the room glistening in the light that is both welcoming and just a tinge cold. Seating is available for a number of people to gather, adjusting each week to seemingly accommodate a little bit over the number of people assigned to the dorm. A piano doesn't sit too far, and sometimes when the room isn't too full, it's almost like a beautiful classical melody will begin to play itself to make up for the empty space.

Or... is that a showtune...?

Who can say?

This week, your requested revisions seem to be done. Exciting! Welcome to Kainé's Housé.

specialty room.


However on the first floor, there's an oddity amidst the serene architecture. One of the rooms opens to a Gaming Lounge, complete with screens that stretch across the entirety of one wall length-wise. Incredible comfortable chairs and couches sit opposite the screen, comfortable enough to steal you away from the outside world for hours upon hours. A series of gaming systems are hooked up to the screens, and a small tower of handhelds sit on a bookcase nearby. Every game you can think of is downloaded and programmed onto each device, though every time you start one up it seems to immediately pull up an otome game or farming simulator. The lighting system changes between a rainbow of colors, and one wall is lined with snacks that are a little less decadent but still just as delicious. The room will adjust based on the needs of the game you play, a wall spinning out to roll out DDR dance pads, virtual reality goggles, or whatever you could need for the ultimate gaming experience.

No, it isn't incredibly reminiscent of Dude Perfect's Game Time Lounge. You're imagining it. (But really, click the link for a better idea of what the room looks like.)




Please use this as an open post for members of Winter 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.

Be nice to Summer.

Obviously. Fall is the real enemy here.

[nods, satisfied]

God hog wild with them. I'm not going to say not to a little bit of good-natured terrorizing.
commandertoolbelt: (let's be reasonable here)

First they challenge us to a prank war, and then they push Rupert off a roof? They're asking for it.

You in? Maybe not for tonight, but just. In general.

Not that I'd ever say no to a challenge, but when did they throw the gauntlet for that anyway?

[did she (read: Al) miss it]

And of course I am. For the chickens, anyway.

You know last week, when they did the whole trick or treating thing? One of them claimed they have a monopoly on tricks. I figured we should prove them wrong.

The underwear thing? It's nothing compared to what we'll throw at them.

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-22 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. So this is a pride thing.

[she digs it!!!]

Let's make sure we back up those words. No dull pranks, got it?
commandertoolbelt: (let's do this)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-06-22 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Bet! And if you have any ideas, let us know? We'll make it happen.

Oh, I'm sure I could come up with something if you give me a bit of time.

[tail flick! her ears perk forward too, clearly interested]
commandertoolbelt: (i made a funny)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-06-22 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
[ grinning! ]

We've got all the time in the world, Kit-Cat.

Or at least the rest of the week, right?

I've no quarrel with summer as long as they stay out of our way.

[ realistically, they'd probably band together? everyone here is terrible. ]

Realistically, Summer could be our allies, you know? I already have connections there.

[arches her brows at him]
repress: (1dahesss)

[personal profile] repress 2021-06-22 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
...Do as you please.

[ he doesn't exactly play nice with others, but you know what, they're building an army here. ]

[Catra doesn't either but sometimes you're a cat with a soft spot for some people that made you feel welcomed and good, she has TWO families now]

I can already guarantee you I will, Patchy.
