common room.

The common room of the Fall Dorm has soft, dimmer lighting; plush carpet over wood; and several comfortable chairs and sectionals. A few big windows overlook the dormitory area of campus, but there is also a single, cozy bay window on one side.

A television and bluetooth surround-sound are here for Fall students who are more inclined to be tech savvy. In the cabinets under the entertainment stand are an assortment of board games, but the television does have a generic "free tv" app for shows and music.

Above the enormous center fireplace is a moody painting.

On one of the tables is a welcome basket.

specialty room.

Through a door on the first floor, there is an antigravity room. Stepping just a few feet through the doorway will lift everyone up into the air. The seating and most of the rest of the room remains somehow rightfully in place on the floor and will not move. Students, however, can grab pillows and blankets, cups or bowls, or other small items to bring into the air with them.

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

Seriously? You're expecting me to just sleep it off right now?

[ This is very valid. Unfortunately it plinks off of him like a thrown BB pellet. ]

Take watch. There are enough of us that we can take shifts for however long this lasts.

[ give him a second. he had only really said that because it's what lightning would have said, it's something she's definitely said in that past, and hope had simply parroted what he aspired to emulate in his emotional lapse. but he's just now realized he doesn't have a damn clue what he's talking about. ]

...Anything out of the ordinary, I guess.

Like... zombies? Wild animals?
