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.

[ ichiro's
here with the first aid kit. i was writing an entirely different top level but he's probably just helping denji AND LEO with his injuries at the moment. i hate you all so much ]
This is everybody but Adora who's been on one of these now, I think. [ ugh ]
winter invents health insurance
... similarly to last week, I maybe able to address some injuries if others have Vouchers to spare... I only need 6 this time to address both Denji and Leo's major injuries, and any surplus will go to further healing.
Again, please do not feel compelled - but similarly any donation made will ensure I grant full discounts for the coming week so you can make back your Vouchers faster.

...I don't really have many, but I can give one.
no subject
he's not moving from the floor. but he waves a hand. ]
I can give one or two, probably.
no subject
Do you have them on you? Someone can grab them for you, if you don't.
no subject
it's broken ribs, a broken arm, weird puncture wounds all over his torso on both front and back, and possibly a punctured lung. oh and his palms are severely cut up, but they aren't openly bleeding at least? ]
It's in the room. Tool belt.
[ which, for once in his life, leo is not wearing. ]
no subject
ichiro sits down, paying absolutely zero attention to any of his own injuries that might or might not have reopened at being thrown around like a sack of potatoes, and gets to work on disinfecting his palms first. torso is coming next, scrawny. :/ ]
You look like you went through a wood chipper, dude. Do you need any painkillers or anything?
no subject
[ he doesn't fight ichiro, but does wince at the disinfectant. ]
I wouldn't say no to painkillers. [ squinting at ichiro, though. ] You get into a fight while we were gone?
no subject
...If it's yours, it probably shouldn't have beat you up. [ not. that he can talk considering.
the second part - there's a brief moment of exhaustion coming from his emotions, and he shakes his head. ] Kinda. Don't worry about it. Here, take an ibuprofen.
[ here have some painkillers sir ]
no subject
Obviously it wasn't the real Festus.
[ despite the light tone of voice, there's a steady pulse of sadness, even longing coming through his emotions. he takes the painkillers without acknowledging that. ]
If you're allowed to fuss, so are the rest of us.
no subject
...yeah. Were you guys able to figure out if they were illusions, pretty quick, at least?
[ and then, with a laugh, he shakes his head. ] 'm okay. Promise. Iris'd kick my ass if I was trying to hide anything really serious.
no subject
I did, but I think Tsuyu had the worst of it. There was a tree, and he was shouting for someone? [ shakes his head. ] He got pretty hurt.
[ not as bad as leo did, but. he laughs softly. ]
Guess you're right. Wouldn't want to get on her bad side.
no subject
Poor guy. I'm sure they're taking good care of him at his dorm, at least.
[ a little fussy there, too; there's a spike of worry because that's also lucretia's dorm. ichiro finishes disinfecting those puncture wounds, tearing open packages of gauze and focusing on those getting bandaged, too. ]
You wanna talk about what happened? Or.. did you get anything from it? We can skip ahead to that part, too.
no subject
[ tsuns. anyway fun fact - the puncture wounds on his torso look like something's straight up ripped his skin apart, the edges of it ragged and torn. they're a little better off than before - no more bleeding, less inflamed - but he's still in bad shape.
but he'll count the events of their adventure off on his fingers for ichiro: ]
Found a crazy naked guy. He threw a tree at us. His cousin took us to meet this saint who likes playing mind games with people and calls it a "test of chivalry." Then we went to the moon.
Nier sent me something, after we got back.
[ after flipping through his phone, leo shows ichiro a photo of a single page. ]

you just gotta ]
What.
[ WHAT DOES LITERALLY ANY OF THIS MEAN ]
no subject
Big mood, man.
no subject
What does this even mean.
no subject
[ he doesn't know and he's too tired and in pain to theorize well at the moment ]
