GRAVEYARD...... 2!

graveyard

students in time out: 16


It's a little hard to wake up when the melody that drifts into your ears is so comforting that it'd be so much simpler to stay asleep. Maybe everything that you remember last - the cold seeping into your fingertips, the pain of injury, or the darkness creeping into your vision - will just be parts of a bad dream.

But it's not.

When you wake up, it's probably a little disorienting - you have to push off a blanket and rise from this nice comfortable mat on the floor. Seems like you were all curled up for nap time. Literally. The room that you're in has furniture meant for small humans, children as some might call them, and everything is soft and plush to the touch with rounded corners. Blocks with the alphabet etched onto them, coloring books and crayons, and even a rocking horse dot the room to really give it that childish charm. If you can think of a child-safe toy, it's probably in one of the baskets that line the shelves of the room!

Around the room they'll find baby monitors that broadcast the antics of the living. Hopefully that doesn't feel creepy.

There is a yard outside through the glass doors, but it currently seems to be locked - and the glass won't break no matter how hard you try. There's a large pink door that feels enormous, ten times as tall as you, on one side of the room, but there's no way through that either. At the very top, you might see a directory sign that says: TO ADMINISTRATION BUILDING.

Huh.

Well... for now, get comfortable. It looks like you might be here a while.

[When Sieghart finds Leo later, he offers a fruit snack from a bag.]

You came at an interesting time. How are you settling?
commandertoolbelt: (not buying it)

Interesting is a word.

[ STARES AT THE CYOA GROUP. but he will take the fruit snack i guess. ]

And I've had better wake up calls. It's not every day you wake up and realize you've been murdered.

Isn't it?

The kids and Bradley have been compiling what we know on paper. If you haven't had the chance, you should take a look.
commandertoolbelt: (just the mechanic)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-07-19 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I glanced at it. Seems like you guys were pretty much on the same page as us, but I thought you'd know more over here.

...And their new recruit is Manwol.

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-07-19 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
So I've heard.

Unfortunately, information was limited until recently. In that sense, you came at a good time.
commandertoolbelt: (stop talking already)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-07-19 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
You guys have been here for this long and you didn't know much? I thought you were figuring stuff out before us, and that's why the marquee messages were sent out...?
ercnerd: (01)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-07-19 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
All we knew was the truth. That's why our messages were geared toward reassuring you guys of our existence and discouraging retaliation against known killers. For us, this week is the outlier.
commandertoolbelt: (reasoning)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-07-19 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Because of the voice, right? Kon and Lucretia talked to it, too. And they lost their memories of people they cared about, just like we were told.

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-07-19 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
We saw. . . . Could all this mean that the gap between here and there is starting to shorten?
commandertoolbelt: (I don't like where this is going)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-07-19 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
I... don't know. That would be a good thing, right? If it means we could rejoin them?
ercnerd: (26)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-07-19 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Mm. If that's the case, we're closer than ever to rejoining everyone.
commandertoolbelt: (stop talking already)

[personal profile] commandertoolbelt 2021-07-20 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Right, but we still need to fix the transcripts first, don’t we? Otherwise, we still won’t be graduating with the rest of them, and that defeats the purpose.
ercnerd: (02)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-07-20 08:38 am (UTC)(link)
That's a given. I'm not interested in my grades, but it'd be uncool to show up in front of everyone, only to be left behind in the end.
