SPRINGLE - WEEK 3

common room.

In the common room, the walls have been painted with photo-like pictures of forests and lakes, and spread across the ceiling is a depiction of the night sky. One wall is lined with bookcases, the books ranging from fiction to non-fiction as well used course textbooks. More bookcases have been used to section off one corner for a study area, with a desk and chair provided.

Elsewhere, there are a few couches (one looks as though it doesn't quite belong) and chairs, most seated around a coffee table and with throw blankets tossed over them if you need the extra warmth. On the table is a bowl of healthy and semi-healthy snacks, regularly stocked. (Nearby is a garbage can.)

This week, it looks like things are getting into the holiday spirit.

specialty room.

Past an entrance in the common room, a mini coffeehouse has been set up, with express machines for those who just want their coffee now and slightly more advanced equipment for aficionados. It offers a variety of strength levels and flavors to accommodate tastes all across the spectrum, along with a teapot and packets of caffeinated and non-caffeinated tea for those who prefer a different drink. There's a sink if you want to use your own mug, but otherwise, disposable cups are provided for you to use.

Pasted on the wall by the coffee machines is a detailed but clear handwritten guide on how to use said machines, complete with illustrations. There are also cute little doodles of Spring Dorm residents using the machines and drinking coffee, though they look as though they were done by someone else.

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

[On the table is... more alcohol, because Chad apparently assumes that's popular around here and you haven't proven yourselves to be completely irresponsible, wow. With that said, this week it's of a different variety than what's sold in the SUB: there's nicer wine, champagne, and eggnog. Non-alcoholic eggnog is also available.

Along with the drinks are chocolate and peppermint bark, plus biscuits for those who prefer things less sweet.

There's also a wrapped package for each member of the dorm. Should you open it, it contains one small, sentimental item from your home. (This cannot be a weapon or magical; if you're uncertain, feel free to ask the mods.)

Finally, there's an open package as well, with flowers placed inside and a label on the box addressing it to Sieghart. Looks like you can add to this one, if you want to pay your respects to the deceased.]

MONDAY

[Starting Monday morning a poster:



will be hung up in Spring Dorm. Molly is also drinking like a lot of actual real coffee this morning.]

[rita's drinking her mostly-sugar almost-coffee concoction and staring at this poster...]

Anime night? The hell's that about?

SIEGHART'S BOX

[dormheads]

[Added Monday:
• A spring-themed scarf
• A bottle of alcohol
• Some chocolate
• A letter full of Sieghart doodles of him doing various things such as punching demons, napping, etc. The letter itself thanks him for his kindness and mentions how cool the writer thinks he is.
• A little black crane
• A tarot card, unfinished. Each half of the card depicts one half of Sieghart's sword, split apart. The portion where the names of each side seem blank but (Mentor?) is written very lightly in pencil along one half.
• A portrait of all of the original Spring Dorm, Chad and Sieghart and Taichi all included, hanging out in the common room. Everyone is either smiling or laughing, excluding Chad, but he's drawn in a way where you could maybe assume there is a little quirk of his mouth there. Something is written on the back, if you look.]

Since when is this you're preferred method of entertainment...?

[headmt]

It's about anime, I presume?

[There seems to be a bit of a question that's like. What the hell even is anime. But Molly sure is selling this with confidence!]

[headmt]

Since when is it not? Maybe I've always loved it.

tuesday, earlier sometime

[it's group text time again because this is easier than herding all of you.]

I believe most, if not all of you, know there's information we're able to get from the dorm heads. If any of you have bought that from Chad this week, then that's something I think we may need to discuss-- and if none of us have, then we should start discussing that as well. We can make contributions as needed, but we should designate someone so that we don't have multiple people overlapping.

[branches]

How much does that cost? I have six vouchers right now, but I'd like to use some of them on one of my powers.

[ambiography]

As far as I'm aware, we don't know what he'd ask yet, so we'll need someone to get on that as well.

[overlimit]

That thing that some weirdo went off about when we first talked to the dorm heads?

[godcards]

Are you volunteering?

[shaft]

Do you know what information has already been bought from them from the other dorms?

I've only heard of that script.

[ambiography]

Depending on the cost, I can't volunteer in full. I have something of an ongoing project.

But I don't mind asking about it, or making the exchange.

[ambiography]

Not for this week, no. I've heard they might be identical as well, but I don't think that's any reason to leave it all up to the others.

[shaft]

I agree, I just thought we might spread out what we request.

Do you have any clue how it works? Do we ask for something specific, or just request a bit of information?

[ambiography]

He'll know what you're talking about. I asked about the possibility of buying different information, and he said that the only information he knew for sure we could purchase was the weekly limited piece of it.

[shaft]

That makes it easier for us then. I certainly don't mind spending vouchers for it, or pooling together if need be.

[godcards]

I have 3 vouchers I can give to the cause, whoever ends up asking.

[ambiography]

It would be appreciated, Claude.

I can leave the asking to you, or do it myself-- but I can contribute at least a little as well, depending on what's needed.

[ambiography]

I'll bear that in mind, then. Thank you, Malik.

[shaft]

We'll see what he asks for. I'll let you know.

[modissty]

I haven't spoken to him yet either, but I can contribute vouchers if need be.

[overlimit]

[rita chimes in a little later!]

Seems like we could stand to do a better job of sharing and discussing information in general, too. Maybe we should have more group chats like this.

Aside from the purchased information and whatever people have been picking up after getting tormented on Thursdays, we got some other weird hints too, right?

"FIND THE BEARS KEYS" under the Dean's List... Anyone know what that's about?

And this one was in my locker: "The exchange of vouchers allows for the Dorm Heads to regain control of themselves briefly."

[ambiography]

I appreciate it, Sagihara. I'll let you know if we need them.
