[there's a little laugh - ] So long as no one's actively trying to harm you, maybe I'll learn to worry less.
But you needn't worry about the door. It sounds like lockdown happened rather suddenly so I don't blame any distress and - well, that's what I've been told. I think it must've been me...
[her voice sounds a little thoughtful]
The mirror in my room broke at some point over the weekend, so I wonder if it was when I collapsed. Though... [a slight pause, like she's mulling it over] my hands are also a little cut too. I didn't think anything of it until I saw yours...
I see... [ . . . ] Should I get more vases and pinatas...? I wouldn't be surprised if you all still had some anger to work through after... well, that.
No, my window is fine... But that could be it. Or when I fell over, the mirror fell with me and some shards cut my hands. I'm afraid everything on Thursday to about... Sunday is rather foggy.
No, I suppose not. You're all very rowdy - but I do mean that as a compliment.
[she's fond]
Mm... I'm a bit tired. I don't think I'm at 100% yet, but it's also not rare for me to collapse every now and then. So I think with just a little bit more rest, I'll be in top shape.
[god she loves this. she absolutely just unleashes her strongest punch on one of the vases? it probably doesn't go very far because she just shatters it with her fist.]
Okay, so - I'm looking to get one of my abilities back. I'm gonna focus on making sure Caleb's safe this week first, and kind of... seeing what's going on here. But.
How much would it be to get back my ability to punch the truth out of people?
[there's a muffled noise of clapping from inside the mascot costume]
Will you punch them just like that? Wow. [interesting concept,] It should be about eight Vouchers, with certain restrictions like only being able to use it once per week.
I don't want to give you a hard time, but I do like Vouchers so we can win Dorm Wars, so let me know if you'd like to haggle a little for it. It clearly has its uses, so I'd like to discount it for you.
I mean, more gentle than that because I don't want to break their jaw. [she says, amused. a beat.] But yeah. I punch them, sixty seconds they can't lie. I figure you're gonna change it up on me, since I'm kind of at your mercy.
Eight, huh. [she shifts, shaking her hands out.] Hm. Well, first off, can I haggle the restrictions, or is that set in stone?
Hmm, we have some rules we have to follow as Dorm Heads too so... for now, once a week is what we can offer when it comes to affecting another student's mental state - but we can let you know if that adjusts in the future.
What we can do is that once you punch them, they can give a definitive Yes or No answer to whatever you ask, and then any statement after must be truthful for those sixty seconds. [so they can also stay silent just for the sake of ooc game mechanics] Those will probably be the specifications we'll haggle on, which is the best offer I can give you at the moment.
Got it, got it. [give her a sec, she's calculating.] So in that case... are you allowed to tell me which Dorm Wars task is yours? How many many points do you get for people doing those?
No, I'm afraid during the week itself I'm not able to tell you which task is mine. If I do, then it'll invalidate the results.
But each task itself translates to one point. Vouchers also translate to one point each, and finally membership to a Dorm will be calculated at the end but each person will likely count for more than one point.
Fuck. There goes my haggling option. [huff.] I was gonna say lower your price for me and I'd get a bunch of people to do your task specifically.
[if you cannot win fair CHEAT THE SYSTEM FUCK THE MAN]
Guess not a lot of people did the tasks, then? Or maybe they didn't use vouchers. [... a pause.] Wait, what does that mean, like every person here has a point value?
No, a lot of them did! I think more people would just value Love over Hope - not that I blame them for it, but it simply wasn't my answer. And... [she makes a little thoughtful noise] Well, I'm not too worried about our numbers. I think you're all very wonderful and reliable people.
But ultimately at the end, yes. Each person inside a Dorm will count for some number of points that will be added to the Dorm Wars total.
So if, say, you, Caleb, and Mollymauk all chose to promise to stay with Winter by the very end, I could be even more inclined to give all of you discounts.
[with a little sing-song tone]
But it is still early, so I'm trying not to be greedy.
... Huh. Interesting. [she tilts her head back.] We're staying on opposite sides for uh, strategic reasons for now. I'm only telling you that because you might've heard it already.
But that's something to keep in mind. [.......] How many points am I worth?
Oh, don't apologize. I don't want to win so badly that you all aren't true to yourselves - at least for the first few weeks. Maybe if it's a tighter race later, I'll change my mind.
Hehe, none of you believe me when I say I don't listen in... but that's alright, it's a healthy amount of suspicion. But I understand that too. I don't mind if they want to give their Vouchers for smaller transactions to me though. I like them both, too.
[she laughs at the question and then proceeds to knock over another vase as she hums in thought]
I think everyone who started in Winter Dorm is worth at least 100. I'm very fond of you all. Adora perhaps 110 - she's just so cute.
It is really cute, honestly, she's got a big fucking heart.
[so agreed there - but the second part just gets her to laugh and rub at her face. idk if the mod characters care about the fear tattoos but her's is just like right there, on her inner arm.]
but viola just pauses, like she's weighing her words]
... I think you have very strong convictions, and don't hold back your emotions. [a flipper pats a vase in thought for a second] I wish I could be more like that sometimes.

... You think maybe you accidentally punched the mirror? For a bit I thought you had hit the window and shattered it somehow, but.
no subject
No, my window is fine... But that could be it. Or when I fell over, the mirror fell with me and some shards cut my hands. I'm afraid everything on Thursday to about... Sunday is rather foggy.
no subject
[she frowns though.] The bear mentioned you guys were out sick, yeah. Are you doing okay?
no subject
No, I suppose not. You're all very rowdy - but I do mean that as a compliment.

no subject
What? Are you saying you just pass out every so often even without the weird school shit? [hello??]
no subject
[a little distressed]
But I... Well, it only feels fair to mention that I am prone to overwork now and then...
no subject
Oh boy. You had better not mention that to anybody in our dorm or they're going to knock on your door every single day to make sure you sleep.
no subject
but the part about the game being created so anna can fuck dimitri is true]
Ah. Well - let's keep it a secret between us then...
no subject
Now I have blackmail. [this is like 95% a joke] Anyway - can I ask you some voucher questions?
no subject
But why of course! And let's not forget what we came here for. We can multi-task.
[she's waddling toward a vase so she can just
use a flipper to knock it off a table for fun. it falls to the ground with a satisfying shatter.]

That's the second time you've brought her up. Sounds like someone has a crush. [teasing!!]
no subject
[she's just ecstatic
but she's laughing]
I'd bring you up more but I worry it'd be bold to admit that I admire you.
no subject
[so agreed there - but the second part just gets her to laugh and rub at her face. idk if the mod characters care about the fear tattoos but her's is just like right there, on her inner arm.]
