FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 3

[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.

[ oh, thank god. he'll just close his good eye and listen instead because yeah he was absolutely being stubborn and this helps ]

[goalsides]

[eventually while he's reading he will use his (hopefully, probably) splinted arm to try and bend his hand enough to pet his hair. it probably does not work. it's just very important to make sure yamato is solid and real right now? wild.]

[ghoststrums]

[ he's injured so yamato doesn't want to lean too much into him but also he sort of shudders out a sigh so it's clearly. appreciated? please don't injure your arm more, dumbass ]

[goalsides]

[it's fine, we're fine, just shut up and take it.]

[ghoststrums]

[ HE IS BUT DON'T INJURE YOURSELF ANYWAY ]

[goalsides]

[...eventually...]

I don't like that they're similar.

[ghoststrums]

[ ... he hums a little ]

Script pages. When they asked for a twist to make the show stand out from other school based shows-- they added murder. I think.

[ or, well, that's his theory based on previous evidence ]

[goalsides]

Yeah, they're all episode summaries. Definitely not great.

[ghoststrums]

They're not... things that happened, though.

[ so it's not like. predictive? ]

[goalsides]

Scratched ideas. Or maybe they're ideas for our murderers. [no. not exactly.]

[ghoststrums]

... I don't want to be a fish, too.

[ "too"? ]

[goalsides]

...huh?

[ghoststrums]

That aquatic wish thing.

[ that's CLEARLY not what taichi is asking but he's stupid and tired ]

[goalsides]

[just squinting.]

What the hell are you talking about?

[ghoststrums]

The graduation thing from the script? Aquatic trauma. You just read it.

[ yamato continues to specify the wrong thing ]

[goalsides]

...that...huh?

[it doesn't matter if just read it, his head is scrambled what do you want.]

[ghoststrums]

... Never mind. [ yamato's too tired to keep it up ] It just seemed like... the stupidest option of the lot.

[goalsides]

...

...

We were saved by a giant mouse in a black coat.

[what.]

[ghoststrums]

[ ... oh, well.

if they're trading stupid things; ]

I was a cat. Not-- literally, but like... Catra.

[goalsides]

...nyamato...?

[he might also be concussed.]

[ghoststrums]

You are not making that a thing.

[ he's still wearing the cat hoodie. ]

[goalsides]

[he uses the frostbitten hand to pet one of the ears of the hoodie.]

Why not? S'kinda cute. [there is blood all over this hoodie and they are both delirious and stupid. and also in front of god and everyone.]

[ghoststrums]

[ he squints a bit at the hoodie ]

... I wasn't even wearing that in there. [ grumbling ] And the color's bad.

[ why camo. also he's letting this happen because yeah they ARE both delirious and stupid, he's not even reacting properly ]

[goalsides]

[also squinting a little.]

That's the thing you have a complaint about?

[ghoststrums]

... It's more like something Mimi would wear, but it's comfortable.

[ so yes that is his main complaint ]
