WINTER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 0

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, there appears to be a welcome basket set on the common room table.
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.
WELCOME BASKET

For one hour afterward, your character will find their tongue a little looser. More talkative than they might be otherwise. That's good for bonding, isn't it? They will not notice this adjustment in their behavior until the time has passed.

... she's also snoring, though. so. at least there's that.]

This is relevant mostly because at some point she rolls too far and falls from the top all the way to the ground, possibly passing our dearly beloved bloody monk on the way.
The thud when she hits the ground is very loud.]

the revenge of w0 starter friday
so whenever people decide to come out of the scream suites, he's here, eating a pastry as he figures out the phone bit by bit.
... he looks really strange, sitting there in his kimono, eating a baked good, holding a smartphone, sitting in a gaming lounge. he still looks up when people join the rest of the world though. ]
You guys good in there?

w0 friday wakeup
Denji looks down at the spread of warm, aromatic sweets and breads, looks around for any cops or whatever, and proceeds to shove everything he can fit into his mouth with ruthless efficiency (if anyone else tries to get something he'll let them he's not rude)
so now there's just a scrawny-ish teen wearing blood-soaked salaryman clothes woofin down desserts and completely oblivious to anything else happening in the rooms]

w0 friday
At literally anyone peacefully existing in the common room: ]
What is this? What have you done?
[ Also, he's carrying a particularly ugly spear. ]
no subject
[standing up immediately and holding his hands up in a placating gesture.]
I feel like I should say off the bat that I didn't do anything, so maybe you could put the spear down? Please put the spear down. But also, uh - what happened?

week 0, saturday
But also when Adora gets back to the dorm, she runs into the open door on the way in. Not, like, substantially? But she definitely clips it, pauses, and readjusts with a frown.
Anyway, feel free to use this for post-trial anything, happy Saturday!!!]

Re: week 0, saturday
w0, saturday... 2!
at the top, he's highlighted and written in large, sharp writing: ] Favorite Food Survey
[ below there's directions, and then the rest of the papers are devoted to people writing things down. his handwriting isn't 100% great, but it's legible, and you have to cut the guy some slack since he lost use of his dominant hand. ]
You don't have to write me an essay, but give me an idea of what your favorite food is, and I can start making meals for the dorm. You can do by mealtime (breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, snacks) if you want. If you want to join me in cooking, sure - I won't say no. Also won't say no to just hanging out while I do it.

Miso stewed mackerel, but there's no way I'm letting you cook by yourself.
Let's make a schedule - 1
