SUMMER COMMON ROOM - WEEK 0

[dormheads]

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.

... A forest...

Let's see if we can try that. It sounds promising.

[ Less school-like, anyway. ]

[amain]

Fortunately, it looks like it's close to this building, so it shouldn't be a long walk.

[ But they must together hobble through the door first. ]

[momming]

I wouldn't mind... it's been a while since I've had the chance to take a long walk.

[ Work, and all.

But to the door! ]

[amain]

[ THE DOOR. ]

Did your job not ask you to walk? Even to your shop?

[ They're met with buildings, but Nier will help them circle to the back which should be forest along the shallow river. ]

[momming]

[ Otome grimaces, just a little. ]

It's my job to save lives. You could say I was a little too busy for leisure walks.

[amain]

[ Save lives. Where has he heard that phrase. ]

You're a doctor.

[ What the fuck. Wow. Nier is actually amazed? In awe? He even forgets what they're doing. ]

[momming]

I-- am, yes.

[ she blinks up at him, looking a little concerned. ]

Is something wrong with that?

[amain]

No, not at all. If anything, that’s good for us.

[ If someone gets impaled by a golf club, we have Otome. ]

There weren't a lot of doctors where I’m from...

[ hence his surprise ]

[momming]

[ Otome dearly hopes no one is impaled by a golf club. ]

I see... if that's the case, you look healthy enough, but please let me know if you'd ever like a complimentary check-up.

[amain]

Thanks, I appreciate that.

[ we will have to see. Nier is kind of startled by the offer. ]

I don't have any gold on me to pay you, though.

[momming]

... Truth be told, helping people to me has always been more important than being paid for it. If you need my help, Nier, I'll happily provide it free of charge.

[ Sorry, she's Like This. ]

[amain]

[ ... This is actually really nice? Of course, he has had a few people care about him to some extent where they offer a lending hand, but it feels like so long ago. They only met, so he knows that it's general kindness and nothing more than that.

But he clings onto it, almost too desperately, and he has to carefully think this through so he doesn't choke on his words or make this awkward. ]

Thanks, Otome. I'll make sure to tell you, but I think there's someone else that needs your help.

[ He's talking about Lan Wangji, bleeding in his bunk bed. ]

[momming]

... Ah. [ She blinks, a little curiously. ] Someone in this dorm, I'm assuming?

[ He's probably fine. ]

[amain]

Yeah. For some reason, I came here without my salves, so I couldn't help him. Just got him cleaned up a bit.

[ He's probably fine, yeah. Cultivation will save his ass, maybe. ]

[momming]

I see... then I'll make sure to examine him thoroughly. [ He doesn't have a choice in the matter. ]

Thank you, for helping him even with that.

[amain]

I didn't really do much... Fortunately, I think he's still meditating.

[ So, like, maybe bunny will not hurt himself? ]
