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.

[ that means no copy pasting everything into your notes, kids! TAKE REAL NOTES ms funk give zeroes on copy pastes. ]
Lost my phone. Sorry for missed messages. Expelled and injured students signed into daycare - we knew that already - and they are helping get keys to the administration building, good work so far. Need to go into the top floor to fix their transcripts... so they can return to campus. Please keep students occupied and happy as...
[ hello ] ...uhhh. Em...emissaries? E-r-m-n-i-s-d-s-a-r-r-f-i-e-s. Is that what that is? It's like, make sure the rest of us are happy. Outside visitors still not permitted in - fuck, the bear signed it with a bigass pawprint.
Permitted in ... T- something - G - E areas. Construction may be done by the end of school year.
There's also like, paint smears and macaroni stuck to it. Maybe the bear's in the daycare?

[ kon you're so smart. he looks over at iris briefly... diplomacy... ]
I think the "TGE" is a word. Like "the" or "these". Don't overthink it too much.

[ he obviously hasn't been sleeping well for a couple weeks, but this is also the most energetic he's ever been as he just - keeps writing the entire time they're talking. ]
"Permitted in these areas. Construction may be done by the end of school year." Doesn't say what areas those are, but, whatever. We have - [ sticks his thumb into the notebook to hold his place and flips back to the first page, counts, flips back to where he was writing ] - nine buildings still under construction at the moment. Four smaller, three medium, two big.

And then "construction may be done by the end of the year" - that's our timeline you found, right? Two weeks per season. The winter term is ending now.
no subject
Spring'll be next. [ flipping back to his map the same way ] So that's four weeks left of the school year, I think. [ ... ] Deadline of four weeks for us to figure this shit out, probably, but that'd be at least two buildings a week opened up to us. One week with a third.
What if one of them is the daycare?

... Keys to the administration building? So - they're doing work.

[ ... ] The marquee. Do you think that's from them?

Do you think the Dean's List is them too?

Maybe it's the bear...?

[ oh i can't read ]
I still have no idea, but - Iris said the dean's list is picked by the bear.
no subject
Is that what a daycare is like? T-G-E? Like initials or as a whole word?
