Welcome.


Rise and shine.

There are a few things that matter right now - the fact that you're waking up in an unfamiliar but decently comfortable bed, the fact that you don't recognize the room you're in, the fact that you seem to have some sort of headache... Nothing severe, mind. Just the sort of odd, heavy fuzziness that comes with having slept far too long.

You don't really remember where you were immediately before this, not upon waking. Something will come to you eventually if you think long enough, however - a couple of seconds of consideration will bring to mind a place, a memory, a recollection of where you were and what you were doing.

It probably wasn't anything that would result in you being here, though.

Welcome to Graceside Preparatory Academy.

You may want to pick up the key to your room before you leave the room, but don't worry too much - your door won't lock automatically, so you won't be locked out if you've forgotten to pick it up. It seems you're not alone, either; the hallway outside your room is most likely full of other confused people by now, and should you turn around to look at the door of the room you just left, you'll find a nameplate with your name printed on it. There's a single word underneath it with no explanation. This is your title, but don't worry about that right now.

Depending on when you left your room there may be a clock chiming in the foyer up ahead. It seems like it's seven, though it's difficult to tell if it's seven in the morning or seven at night. There aren't any windows, after all. Should you venture into the room with the clock, you'll find that the only exit is closed - there's absolutely no way to break down that steel bulkhead. It looks like you're not getting out of here anytime soon.

The foyer also holds some very interesting information. There's a bulletin board with thirty-five pictures on it. Beside each picture is some very specific and very familiar information. Feel free to examine it. The bulletin board is large enough for plenty of you to gather around and gawk. Don't try to get at it though, that glass in front of it is very thick. If you try to break it, you'll find out the hard way that it's shatterproof. Sorry about that.

Perhaps even more of a concern than the glass is the list beside the profiles. It looks like a set of rules. You might want to examine those, though they're not providing much of an explanation for why you're here or how you got here.

So relax and get to know your fellow Participants. You might be stuck here for awhile.

...I'm not altogether certain that's exactly what they have in mind, but they do imply that there are other ways to end this exercise, outside of the immediate morbid one.

[If this just turns out to be the world's worst and most prolonged party and nobody dies for like months on end, will they let us go, though- ]

I don't see why we shouldn't assume that escape by way of refusal to play the game is valid.
destage: (NEUTRAL ♡ Well I'm listening)

Ah, that's right! We're just here for the 'duration of the exercise'...they didn't say that we have to spend this duration trying to do...well, that.

[Look, maybe if they party for so long the place will get some noise complaints and they can try to explain to the authorities what's going on--]

It's just a matter of how long we'll need to bide our time, then, if that's the case?
explosivecombat: (I like the way you think)

[personal profile] explosivecombat 2017-09-11 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
I'd imagine so.

Either way, don't let it concern you just yet. There's always something like that that can be used.

[Sayaka nods her head, bowing a bit respectfully.]

I won't. I have faith in the people here, and I think we're all going to do just fine...um, Kimblee-san, right?
explosivecombat: (It's no accident that I've survived)

[personal profile] explosivecombat 2017-09-11 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
You're right, yes. Miss Maizono, isn't it?
destage: (SMILE ♡ Like nothing's wrong)

Oh, thank goodness! I was really worried about messing up the pronunciation...

[She rubs at the back of her head, giggling a bit.]

That's me though, yes! It's [...she pauses a bit as if she's considering her words a bit, just for a second or two] a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
explosivecombat: (How cruel...)

[That seems to amuse him, actually.]

Don't worry, I wasn't altogether sure if that was appropriate either - a shame the circumstances are what they are and all.

It is good to have met you either way, however.
