WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 7


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!

On Suite One's Door, a sign has been placed on the front. there's four options, however, and they're color coded - green with a 👍 thumbs up, yellow with a 👊 fist (for knock first, fools), and red with a 🚫 no entry sign. the fourth option is just black for now, probably to indicate that it's not in use.

A bunk bed with Fall Dorm bedding sits in the Common Room. The TO THE WINTERS GO THE SPOILS Star Chart hangs proudly.

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.

[ at some point or another, there's activity in the dorm common room. some coming and going, but nothing too busy that requires much investigation? if you're out there as it's happening, then you'll see that it's just kon - he's making multiple trips, it seems, with obvious gaps between them that might imply the cafeteria if you've got that figured out?

but, eventually, there's a spread set up of quite a few different cuisines. whether you've told kon your favorite food or not, there was effort put into personalizing this spread to the best of his abilities. if you were publicly eating something during that culture fair, it's probably here. if you've said in passing what kind of food you like, it's probably here.

happy endgame feast, winter. your did it!

Oh, hell yeah! You're the best, dude!

[he goes to pounce on it, but then looks at Kon to see if it's okay first—it's called character growth]

[ denji gets an ok-hand gesture with the check. have at it, my dude. ]

Figure we have one last hoorah, before we get into the real swing of graduation frenzy. [ ... ] And, y'know, you were kind of a dinosaur? That expends energy, probably. Chow down, Denji.

Sure did! The whole time I super wanted to chow down on some all-you-can-eat yakiniku, but thankfully I was able to remember I was just havin' fun and not eating anyone! [ha ha, what an ending that would've been]

Was wayyy different than when I transform into Chainsaw Man. Even my brain was different.
