dormheads | [ AUDIENCE: CROW ARMBRUST ]

Well I don't want to be in competition for Worst, either!
I just don't know if it's right to call me charming...

And compromise your own -
What did you call it? "Rogueish Charm"?
Sounds like you have a difficult choice to make, Crow...

you're not helping your argument here, y'know.

...

you're laughing at me, i can tell.
it's fine, i'm a big boy. i can take it.

It must be the stickers...
Everyone just associates positive thoughts with a cute mascot...
It works to my favor but to what end...?

Hehe, well that's good.
It wouldn't be fun if you crumbled from the pressure of just a little teasing.
Better to be able to withstand what you dish out, no?

ah, i see. a master of emotional manipulation: viola of the winter dorm.

if you can't take it, why bother dishing it out.
for the most part.
sometimes there are touchy subjects.

Wait no I didn't mean to send that
Oh no!

But of course that's fair - hopefully no one's stepping on too many landmines this early...
You're all just starting to get to know each other.

don't worry, i can keep plenty of secrets. keep it up though, the stickers do help. they've got a kind of disarming charm to them?
that's the best way. something disarming.

probably more than you think, given we don't know each other.
what matters is how everyone deals with it when it happens.

You're really making me sound like someone nefarious, Crow...

I don't know how I feel either way now...

Is that so?
Have you had any encounters with landmines already?

oh, they're back. nice.
nah, but people have reasons for presenting themselves in different ways, right? i'm sure you have yours, just as anyone else has theirs. not really my place to be picking away at it and passing judgements.

...

i can see myself having to skirt around a few in the future.

Hmmm, well, you're not wrong about that.
People have at least been forward about speaking with me, so if I come off as approachable, that's the most important thing to me.
It's easier to help people when they're willing to bring their concerns directly to you.

Is that so...
Is it due to the nature of Dorm Wars?

you've shown you know a lot too? we know nothing, and a lot of us just want to get a better idea of our situation. you were the only one to write a three page welcome letter, after all.
approachability and knowledge. that's a good combination to get people to seek you out.

...
some of the things you're asking in your little task questions could be tricky to answer is all.

The welcome letter still feels so embarrassing... I hadn't realized that the other Dorm Heads were that much more succinct...

Oh?
A little too invasive for you?
Though I suppose this round was a bit more of a Get to Know You sort of thing...

that or they didn’t want to write anything. a lot of people seem interested in what you put, either way.

some of them are, uh. difficult to answer.
i might be able to manage it on a vague level but not a personal one, you know?

I suppose so... Well, feel free to share it if it's useful to others.
I didn't put anything down that I didn't think was important and basic information to know - though I did get a little wordy about it.
I was just disappointed that I wouldn't be able to greet you all myself, so I tried to answer questions in advance...

Is that so...
Can you give me an example? Which ones would you struggle with?
Or is that already too much to ask?
