WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 3


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, we're getting into the holiday spirit! So pop some bubbly, be a little sweet - it's that time of year.

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.

If you think it's important, then yeah.

Well, like I said, we haven't seen them since, but... their names are Mineo Enomoto, Takeru Sasazuka, Helios, and Chibiusa Tsukino.

[ we could fourth wall this so bad but i'll leave that to the actual weeb in this thread. ]

It's probably the same deal as with the dorm heads, though. If there's twelve of them, though, and we've gotten two each week so far - that must mean they've planned this out for at least four more weeks, Right?

And the other thing is that even with this first draft, there were always eleven Winter and Summer students, but ten each of Fall and Spring. So... they must have really planned this out, to make us even after the first week.

[ that's got bad implications for summer though, yikes. ]

[ those names sound weirdly familiar...? ichiro can't place why, though... ]

Huh. Good to know. [ :thinking: ] Yeah, makes sense. I think we guessed eight weeks total, right? And we didn't have any extracurriculars the first week.

[ and the stuff about summer... whew. ichiro's deepens a little further. ]

... I guess that stuff about us being a last minute makes more and more sense, huh. [ shitty. terrible! kaoruko and hiyori, pouring one out for you. ] There's no mention of "editors" or whatever on this one, right?

Nope. There aren't really many notes on this at all, except for the student pictures and a comment that they need more professors. And the student pictures are just, "you," "Student?" and "who".

...maybe that explains why the professors are all so... weird....
