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.

"Fake doctors" "framejobs"... I don't have a cluuuuue what it could be talking about.
bloodbiter: (ah fuck i'm being schnoogered)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-11 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I don't particularly know what either of those things are, but they sound like things that you should dislike. Is that not the case?

[A tilt of her head.]
perpend: (☏ montagues or capulets)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-11 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head.]

It's too specific, given the nature of these profiles.

A framejob is when someone fabricates proof that someone else committed a crime. It's a serious offense, but I can't think it's important enough to put on this profile.
bloodbiter: (you acorn masturbating fuck)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-11 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
I see. I suppose it is strange to specify something you have little experience with.

[A short pause, thoughtful.]

If I'm being perfectly honest, it's a bit comforting that some of this information is inaccurate. It means that whoever brought us here is already making mistakes.
perpend: (⚖ i will wait for you)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-11 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
I agree; it means whoever brought us here doesn't know everything about us.

It's not much of a comfort, but it might help morale.
bloodbiter: (i see a woman i'm hitting her with my)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-12 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
And I believe morale will be quite important to help us band together to escape this place.

[She nods to herself.]
perpend: (☂ if you're blue and you don't know)

[He smiles.]

It won't do any good to despair, after all.
bloodbiter: (forearms so meaty i could feed)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-12 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
[A smile of her own.]

Speaking of banding together, I should introduce myself. [A small curtsy.] My name is Adelina. Is Cabanela what you would prefer to be called?
perpend: (☂ if you're blue and you don't know)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-13 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Cabanela is just fine.

It's a pleasure, Miss Adelina. If only this was under better circumstances.
bloodbiter: (remember to feed yourself and stay hot)

[personal profile] bloodbiter 2017-09-13 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
You can simply call me Adelina, if it pleases you. The circumstances certainly are not ideal, but I have faith that we will set them right quickly. There must be some way to escape.
perpend: (☂ if you're blue and you don't know)

[personal profile] perpend 2017-09-13 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Adelina, then.

We were brought here; I'm sure there's a way out, even if it's not obvious.
