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.

Definitely Fall for making fun of our sleeping arrangements.

And also for trying to steal Caleb. [huff.]

[oh hell yea

there is a glint of some sharp in her expression]


Well chosen. Do let me know how I may assist, as always.

We can make room in here for an extra bed or four.

[iris is great she loves this]

Almost tempted to spend vouchers on getting something that'd make the beds easier to transport. That'd be expensive though.
azuta: (ღ i bought it;)

Hmm... The shapeshifting idea is good - and Leo has tools in case you have enough time to actually dismantle the beds?

If it's like ours... They'd only have four beds to begin with. Two Queen and two bunk beds - and Riku's.

[but he's a baby so iris won't suggest taking his bed]

Eh, Riku can escape this time.

Shit, that's a good idea though. We can shapeshift at least one or two, and dismantle the others, if we've got time? Leo, you down?
azuta: (ღ we team up)

[she's laughing]

Shapeshift some beds, bring them outside, give them the illusion their beds are still there until they're lying on bread, and for the dismantled ones... I suppose you could put them on a roof somewhere? Though take care the mattress doesn't fall on anyone.

Or the farm.

I also am very fond of this cow idea.

[SHE REALLY THINKS POLYMORPHING A COW INTO A COMMON ROOM WOULD BE WILDLY FUNNY]

It would be pricey, I'm sure, if not completely disallowed. But I wouldn't say no to having my Vault of Amber. . .

We should destroy them for that.

[reaches over to whack him with her arm.] Hey, can you polymorph a bed?
katzepaw: (ruby dust)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-13 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
No. [Just so deadpan. How long has he been using polymorph around her!!!]

There are spells we could use, I suppose, but I'd have to buy them. It would be funny to stick all their beds to the ceiling, though. Another idea I had was to polymorph a large animal, like a cow, into something tiny. And then leave it in their common room until it changes back.
azuta: (ღ see how she gettin' paid?)

[personal profile] azuta 2021-07-13 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[softly:]

Please do the cow...
katzepaw: (broken bone)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-13 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
If it's for you, then I would gladly do the cow.

[rude]

That would also be incredible. [...] Turn a cow into a squirrel and let it loose. [no, bad]

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-13 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
We'd better do it on Wednesday, because I have already committed to turn Mollymauk into a newt today, and I can't use it on a Thursday for obvious reasons.

We could hang the get good sign around its neck.

-- You actually turned him into a newt? [she's so amused by this.]

You're a fucking menace, man.
katzepaw: (ruby dust)

[personal profile] katzepaw 2021-07-13 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
He will spend a little time as a newt learning to be a more considerate roommate.

He's gonna get lost in a couch cushion.
