FALL COMMON ROOM - WEEK 0

[dormheads]

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.

[ it would be weird to be excited about this, to be fair. and that. sure is a weapon you have there. okay. it's fine! ]

Sure. Luxanna Crownguard.

[battling]

[There's a lizardman here with a knife! People can have weapons, Lux!]

Crownguard? Guess it ain't worse than "Knightly".

Bradley Bain.

[illuminance]

[ she's just jealous that she doesn't have hers. even though it's purpose is ambiguous anyway.

she gives him a polite little nod as a 'nice to meet you,' but. ]

What does that mean?

[battling]

Yer family servin' a prince or somethin'? First thing that leaps to mind with a name like that.

[illuminance]

Yes, that's right. We've always served the royal family.

[ and then she hesitates like there's more to that, but you know what lets not get into it with a stranger! haha!!!!!! ]

[battling]

[He catches that.]

More to it, huh?

[illuminance]

[ ..... anyway....... ]

And what do you do - Bradley, was it?

[battling]

[... Well. There's a brief moment- and then.]

I'm a sage's wizard. We fight the Great Calamity every year so it doesn't go and destroy the world.

[illuminance]

[ she literally just looks at him like this. you can't just??? tell people you're a wizard???????? ]

[battling]

[Yes??? You should????????????]

Hey. The hell's that face for?

[illuminance]

You introduce yourself that way to strangers?

[battling]

'Course. It's what I am.

[illuminance]

I see.

And what is it that causes the Great Calamity in the first place?

[battling]

Who knows. Probably just somethin' about the moon that makes it deadly once a year.

[illuminance]

[ math lady meme intensifies ]

The moon.

[battling]

Turns red, gigantic and causes a fuckin' mess.

[illuminance]

That sounds like a myth.

[battling]

Seriously wish that was all it was.

[illuminance]

I've never heard of or read about anything like that. Not in reality.

[battling]

Doubt we're all from the same place.

Where are ya from, Miss Knight?

[illuminance]

Right. If we were... [ well, he definitely wouldn't have announced that he's a wizard! ]

... I'm from Demacia.

[battling]

Eh... That a city or somethin'?

I'm from North Country.

[illuminance]

A kingdom. Though the capitol shares its name.

[ ... ]

... Just "North Country"?

[battling]

Never heard of it.

Yeah. Ain't like we have cities up there.

[illuminance]

So you live away from larger civilization? That makes sense.

[ because, you know. wizard. ]
