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.

a. friday afternoon
[Here's Mandricardo.]

[Here's Mandricardo laying face down on the couch, face buried in a pillow. He also has a pillow over the back of his head that he's holding, like he's trying to smother himself in a pillow prison.]

[Sometimes, he's yelling into the pillow with complete and utter exasperation.]

[You know, usual things!]


b. saturday

[Mandricardo managed to make his way into the Occult Room eventually - if someone enters, he's just gesturing to all of the stuff with some alarm.]

W-why is THIS all here? What the hell-!!

[THIS ISN'T DAIJOUBU]

wtfox: also on that same line guess who's getting into princeton at damn near free of charge? (guess who cheated on their SATs?)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-04 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Want to go look around once we've had something to eat?

[no time like the present!]

[ Once they're all settled in the common room... Well. Rubbing his neck, he feels kind of awkward in this situation overall. Everything is so nice? Too nice? ]

I've actually never gone to school before, so I hope that's all right.

[ Since he read something about a dorm war, he... GUESSES?? That's normal for school? He actually isn't sure. He's not sure about a lot of this. ]

a. SUITE LIFE
[have you ever seen someone just sit up completely alert in a bed and blink for a solid minute without uttering a sound]


b. BUT FIRST, TEA
[well, hiyori's distributing teatime snacks, so Byleth is sitting beside the bounty of tea, her own personalized mug already containing a bag of something that smells like lemons steeping in the hot water.

when you approach, she does a minute gesture to the kettle.]


Tea?

[ Studying the other for a moment, before he looks away with a brow raised. It's clear that all of this is still pretty strange for him. Crossing his arms as he then gives a smile. ]

Good morning to you! It's been a while since I've had treats like these.

[ He will take a baked good. Using it to gesture to the other. ]

Tell me, did you just wake up or have you been here for a while?
wtfox: because they had and i quote "calamari on the hoof" (you abruptly started screaming)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-04 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Wellllll... a little, yeah, but it's not much weirder than anything else that's been happening in Paris lately.

[ He's coming over to inspect the rules himself when he spots him. Giving him a slow look over. ]

I don't think I recognize those robes. Which Sect are you from?

A... servant?

[you can practically hear that the word is not capitalized when she says it.]

That seems like a silly rule to have for a job. Do you need me to talk to your boss or something?

[ He pauses, because oh right, food. ]

Eager as I am to get started, 'twould not do to do so on an empty stomach. Have you found the pastries to your liking?
duranduel: (buddy)

[The screaming dies down.]

[There's a very muffled confused noise?]
duranduel: (Default)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-04 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Boss?

[He tilts his head, frowning.]

Uh. Not that type of servant. I'm somethin' different. Not like a butler or anything.

[Mandricardo is going to warily approach the table, before glancing at the kettle.]

[He just nods and sits down without a word. Look, he's shy.]

[ Nier is looking at the mug himself, thinking it's a nice gift with everything else. When Byleth asks, though, he perks up and snaps out of it.

Tea?
]

Oh. Yes, please.

[Maybe lwj's forehead bruise will get him killed too

But no okay. He glances over, one hand still at his chest--the cuts on his hands look pretty fresh, but if they cause him pain, he doesn't show it.

Slowly, he lowers his hand, glancing up at the bunk he hit his head on; he looks around the room then, too, brow furrowed.

What is this.

But he's been asked a question, so he nods slightly, glancing back at Nier.]


...Apologies. [For startling him...]
divineimpulse: (36.)

[personal profile] divineimpulse 2021-06-05 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
[there's no question to this, she just nods in reply, and lets her hand travel across the tea, finally pulling out a chamomile and honey bag.]

Will this suit?
divineimpulse: (24.)

[personal profile] divineimpulse 2021-06-05 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Byleth nods once, then glances through the teas—before letting her hand settle on a green tea blend with jasmine.]

May I have your mug?
souheki: (bow)

[personal profile] souheki 2021-06-05 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
[OH THANK GOD SOMEONE NORMAL (they are the ones who are not normal)

Lan Wangji doesn't noticeably perk up or anything, but Wang Lu does get his immediate attention, and he lifts his injured hands to bow as properly as he can when he's, uh. "I've been trapped in a cave and I look it" levels of presentable. He will make up for it by sheer force of propriety.]


I am Lan Zhan of the Gusu Lan sect, courtesy name Wangji. [This is the longest sentence he's going to say all game wow] And you?

[ ... Is that a bad noise??

Nier moves the pillow to the back of his legs instead, then.

[Another confused noise?]

[Mandricardo says something, but its muffled. An idiot.]
duranduel: (homie)

[personal profile] duranduel 2021-06-05 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
...

[He nods! That looks good!]

[And just reaching for a cup! Tea time!]

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-05 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
... So kidnapping is pretty normal in "Paris?"

[she takes the cup from him, and deposits the bag inside, filling it carefully with hot water—then looking up again.

there's a long beat of comfortable silence between them before Byleth speaks again.]


How are you feeling?
wtfox: and a dog bone in the freezer (there's a bowling ball in the dishwasher)

[personal profile] wtfox 2021-06-05 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
[she giggles!]

Everyone seems less daunting when you're not hungry, right? It's all pretty tasty so far! what kind of flavors do you like?
