SPRINGLE - WEEK 6

[dormheads]

common room.

In the common room, the walls have been painted with photo-like pictures of forests and lakes, and spread across the ceiling is a depiction of the night sky. One wall is lined with bookcases, the books ranging from fiction to non-fiction as well used course textbooks. More bookcases have been used to section off one corner for a study area, with a desk and chair provided.

Elsewhere, there are a few couches (one looks as though it doesn't quite belong) and chairs, most seated around a coffee table and with throw blankets tossed over them if you need the extra warmth. On the table is a bowl of healthy and semi-healthy snacks, regularly stocked. (Nearby is a garbage can.)

This week, there's something.

specialty room.

Past an entrance in the common room, a mini coffeehouse has been set up, with express machines for those who just want their coffee now and slightly more advanced equipment for aficionados. It offers a variety of strength levels and flavors to accommodate tastes all across the spectrum, along with a teapot and packets of caffeinated and non-caffeinated tea for those who prefer a different drink. There's a sink if you want to use your own mug, but otherwise, disposable cups are provided for you to use.

Pasted on the wall by the coffee machines is a detailed but clear handwritten guide on how to use said machines, complete with illustrations. There are also cute little doodles of Spring Dorm residents using the machines and drinking coffee, though they look as though they were done by someone else.

Please use this as an open post for members of Spring 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.

[There are sparklers available if you want to get into the summer spirit, as well as an ice cream maker (in the coffeehouse room) just for this week.

Also, there's a box for Tsuyukusa, if you want to put anything in it.]

alliances...

[modissty]

[WINTER IS STEALING OUR BBQ!!! AND ALSO GETTING IN THE WAY OF SPRUMMER.

Sakyou is just reading this text, going between it and his text with Nier. ........Well. He'll just say it.]

...To be honest, I think I would rather ally with Summer, between the three. [...] Nier and I were also discussing the possibility of connecting our dorms in some way. What do you think?

[godcards]

Summer needs it more than Winter does. Although I'm not so sure about connecting the dorms...

[ambiography]

I'm not going to lie, I am fond of several in Winter, but... well, they don't need the help.

Connecting how?

[modissty]

My thoughts precisely. In any case, we figured some sort of bridge or tunnel? A tunnel would be much less cumbersome to others... We briefly considered asking if it would be possible to just move the buildings closer to each other, but even if it were, it would likely be ridiculously expensive.

[modissty]

Perhaps we could feign an agreement with this alliance and then flip it mid-way through the battle. [WHY IS HE BLOODTHIRSTY.]

You dislike the idea?

[modissty]

[STEEPLING HIS FINGERS INTERNALLY.]

...Hugo. By chance, if one were to purchase a tunnel connecting Spring and Summer dorm together, how many vouchers would this cost?

[ambiography]

Probably, yes. Either of those could work.

I'd say you should just ask if the dorm heads could move, too, but considering this is their assignment...

[probably they couldn't just merge fully.]

[godcards]

It's not exactly dislike. I'm just not convinced that connecting the dorms is necessary. If you want to communicate with them, that's what phones are for.

[modissty]

Mm... We could ask just in case, but I think you're likely right...

[It would be so much easier if they could really just merge fully.]

[ambiography]

-I'm not so sure about betrayal, here.

[inaccordant]

[you all

are killing him]

... I'm waiting to see what Annie says [before y'all noncon a tunnel to her dorm] but I could grant it for eight vouchers. Lockable on either side, and if I had to guess, it'd be inaccessible during lockdown.

[ambiography]

Let's go with that, then.

[and then they buy the tunnel as plan B.]

[modissty]

Yes, I agree that it isn't a necessity - but many of us prefer to speak face-to-face. It could help things feel a little more lively, as well.

[ALSO IT'S ONLY 8 VOUCHERS DAMN.]

[inaccordant]

[he really shouldn't be discounting this but he's too tired not to]

[feytality]

I think Summer needs us more than Winter.

[ as fond as she is of certain winters ]

Plus, a secret tunnel would be so cool!

[modissty]

[Annie just waking up one morning and there's a wholeass tunnel in her dorm. But!! Wow!! 8 vouchers is a sweet deal hello.]

It would be too much to expect anything else, I suppose... Still, I don't think that's a bad idea. [But also:] Just to check, it's impossible to fully merge two dorms, yes?

[feytality]

I don't wanna get on Winter's bad side....

[modissty]

[WHAT'S A LITTLE FRIENDLY BETRAYAL BETWEEN DORMS his expression seems to say, but he'll just nod.]

Fair enough.

[modissty]

[YALL ARE WEENIES but it's fine he was only joking anyway.]

[inaccordant]

[he checks his phone.]

Correct. You could all in theory move to one dorm, but the Dorm Heads have been assigned to where they are.

Annie is fine with it, but she's checking with her dorm to see what they say.

[modissty]

[He just SIGHS ABOUT IT. Why can't this be crau where we just marry the dorm heads off to each other, damn.]

As expected... But thank you.

[WAITING FOR SUMMER DORM'S OKAY.]

[godcards]

[ DISCOMFORT INTENSIFIES ]

I don't think we need it to be more lively.
