WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 4
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, something else has been provided!
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.

REACHES OUT TO SNATCH IT and then stops himself midway there
hands hovering like he's afraid to touch it ] Where did you - how did you - where - ohh my god, it's the Chinese series one, where did you even find it?! Where's the box. Dude.

Gentle with her, dude, she's a 3D print. There's going to be flaws, too, because I can only do so much with what I'm given and she's a recreation from memory. But she took forever to design and print.
There is no box, except in your heart. Or wherever you make a shrine for her, I don't know your life.

Merry Christmas or whatever, nerd. She was my test run on how much detail the 3D printer could take. Do one of your raps for us sometime.

Man, all the timelines are all screwed up here, I forget people just don't know - she's the face of Vocaloid software! Hatsune Miku! An international idol.
It started off as a music program targeted at professional musicians, but then tons of other people got a hold of it, and created these whole stories built around music and animation and all sorts of other stuff. It was a really long time ago, for my world, but her software's still around and getting updates, like, all the time.
[ all of his emotions are just genuine nerd who enjoys every second of this. just earnest as all hell. ]

Miku-chan...so she's like a music character?
