SUMMER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 0


common room.


The common room is as bright and open as the rest of the dorm. Beanbag chairs and even more hammocks are situated around for any of your resting needs, because who needs couches? There are a few blankets on the couch just for comfort, but the temperature is never cold enough to need them because of chill. There's also an absurd amount of pillows.

The walls are decorated with paintings that are either modern art pieces or done by kindergarteners. There are also photographs tacked onto the walls as well, of seemingly random things like a vase of flowers, a mailbox, a bird on a tree branch. The photos are less about grand views and feels more like someone testing out a camera.

On a table is a welcome basket.

specialty room.


In the common room, there's a door that leads to what can only be described as an Occult Room for some strange reason. Unlike the rest of the dorm, this room is dimly lit and is crowded with items—a skeleton that may or may not be real, taxidermy animals, really creepy looking dolls, an actual coffin, etc. On a table to the side is a Ouija board, a few tarot decks, and crystal ball.




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

[whispers what is a school]

[whispers she doesn't want to fight someone else's war (because she, of course, is taking the word "war" literally)]

[PLAY IT COOL, CATRA]

[she collects herself pretty quickly and crumbles up Nier's letter, tossing it from one hand to another before lobbing it at him to catch]


Not sure why you're asking me that, Cupcake. Everything seems pretty self-explanatory.

[OPENS MOUTH TO SAY SOMETHING MEAN LIKE, DUH, I DON'T KNOW, WHY ELSE WOULD I BET ASKING YOU TO TELL ME ONCE YOU FIGURE IT OUT??]

[. . . bites her tongue before the words can leave her mouth and backtracks]


Of course not. I'm not sure why you think I would know.

N-No!

[kind of a little]

It's just...a dorm is no place for a coffin and skulls and stuff?!
duranduel: (buddy)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, but it would make me feel better.

[This is nice. This is his new home now. Gloomy Guy Central.]

I guess just not having to do all this social stuff. It gets me nervous...
duranduel: (compadre)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, don't worry, I wouldn't care about that. I don't snore either. Uh, pretty sure.

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Says who?

[strolling casually into the room, immediately going for the skeleton and tapping her claws against its humerus]

I don't see that regulation on our little rules board.
duranduel: (buddy)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[Well, she's right, but...]

I-isn't it like, the principle of the matter? It's like saying you can have a bed in a bathroom...
supercatty: (pic#14674638)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Some people don't care that much about principles. Or maybe they just like the décor.

[. . . popping the skull off of the skeleton and tossing it from hand to hand, before she holds it up casually]

Here. Catch.

[AND THEN SHE TOSSES IT AT HIM]
duranduel: (chum)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
W-w-wwwah!

[Mandricardo lets out a yelp, terrified as he steps back, but reaches out - the skull bounces on his hands as he struggles with deciding whether to just let it drop or keep it. He eventually keeps it, but he looks MORTIFIED.]

Don't DO that! What the hell!!
supercatty: (pic#14943311)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[giggle-snort]

What? It's just a skull. Are you afraid it's going to bite you?
duranduel: (biffle)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I just...y-you have to treat the dead with a little more respect...yeah.........

[Mandricardo is just going to try to put this skull on the nearest flat surface. He also gives it a pat. N-nice skull.]
supercatty: (pic#14674630)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[the skull stares back at him. as skulls do]

Yeah, whatever.

[browsing the rest of the room, stopping to pick up one of the creepy dolls, which she turns around in her hand to inspect]

I think this might be the coolest room I've seen yet.
supercatty: (pic#14943312)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[uuuuh]

What letter?

[so. yeah. nope]
momming: (Is it the Manischewitz again?)

[personal profile] momming 2021-06-05 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[ And wryly-- ]

You know, you were worried about keeping me for hours with what's troubling you, but I'm afraid explaining all of that would take just as long. But to sum it up, yes, "destroying the world".
duranduel: (bedfellow)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
...The coolest?

[mandri internal voice like what is WITH this CAT GIRL and her GOTH TASTES]

I mean, I guess...if you're used to this sort of thing....
supercatty: (pic#14943297)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[SLYTHERIN GOTH!!!]

[tosses the possibly cursed doll at him next]


It's not about being "used" to it. It's about having backbone. You just sound like you're soft.
duranduel: (pal)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
A-ah! Didn't I just say to stop that!!

[Catching the cursed doll too!! HATING HIS LIFE RIGHT NOW]

I mean, I have some backbone when the going gets tough...that counts for something...
supercatty: (pic#14674637)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[he sure did say to stop that, and she sure is not stopping!! she settles at the crystal ball next, grazing her claws against the glass idly. not hard enough to leave scratches, but u know]

Really? You could've fooled me.
wtfox: your ex tried to add me on facebook (speaking of dumpster fires)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-05 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[sounds fake]

You can't use it? Didn't they leave instruction manuals? Wait, I guess that's a silly question, most people I know just throw it away and figure it out for themselves even now.
wtfox: i'm made of fruit (no one can touch me)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-05 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmhm. I mean, someone has to stand up to it, right...?
wtfox: so you could "re-trace your steps and figure out what happened" (you scattered cereal all over the floor)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-05 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Then it sounds like it'll be fine if we're roommates!
duranduel: (amigo)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I was an adventurer a long time ago...

[Just putting down the cursed doll and looking away self-consciously.]
duranduel: (Default)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, geez...

[That sucks? Wow?]

So these demons were helping you all out...sounds like the Counter Force, actually. Y'know, the world stepping up to protect itself.
supercatty: that last icon wasn't smug but the expression was funny (pic#14945783)

[personal profile] supercatty 2021-06-05 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[. . .]

[picks up the crystal ball and tosses that next. WHY IS SHE LIKE THIS!!]
duranduel: (chum)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
[IT BONKS HIM ON THE HEAD AND HE GOES DOWN]
