WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 5


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.

If buying the clue is a trigger, I don't know if we should have all four of the dorms buying it?

[ IT'S? NOT A GUARANTEE, THOUGH? ]

Okay. Summer shouldn't be buying anything. Spring - should know by this point. Claude's just gonna talk to her and see what's up.

... Did we try shocking Iris out of Viola? Like with Riku.

Better to have just two of them as the villains, rather than all four, if we can help it.

[ blease, ]

She came out on her own - after I told Viola that it'd been a long day, and that I was going to go check up on you, since I was worried about everyone. Gave me puppy eyes like she'd said something wrong, but then Iris broke back out.

She's pissed again. I really don't think it'll be that hard to help shock her out of it, if we do get Viola.

Spring isn't buying it. Lucretia-san says they're with Hugo right now, and he's fine.

[ looking at his phone. ] I summarized what you said for 'em. She also said that Malik got a letter from the daycare that's kind of weird...? It's full of emoji. She took a pic and sent it to me.

[ he will share the picture! for reference its here but the original spacing of the emojis was this. sometimes computers show blocks instead of actual emojis. (pensive) ]

[ ... ] I've also - when things calm down, I've got a nice letter from Rupert, too.

What the fuck is this wingdings bullshit.

[ at least hugo is fine, right now, and kon shuffles up next to ichiro to look at his phone so that other people can see it without super crowding. ]
