Welcome.

[trustfellows]

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.

...If it does, certainly, but I really think you're going to be disappointed if you go in expecting that. Maybe it'd just be good to make sure everything stays platonic...?

[Like, she is contractually obligated to be avoiding this and something tells her that she won't be able to so easy.]

[innocentloveholic]

I can't go policing everyone's affairs though! There's too many of us and not enough of me. It's everyone's own responsibility to make sure things stay platonic if they want it to.

[destage]

[...admittedly she thinks Aligula's gonna police in the other direction, but--]

Well, I do suppose that is our choice in the end. As long as we can all keep civil, I think it could work out quite well.

[innocentloveholic]

[ there aren't enough of her to police either way....... wait until there's less of us though ;) ]

Now you're catching on. [ good for you, sayaka. ] ...Think any fights'll break out?

[destage]

...I certainly hope not. I think if anything, that's what they're hoping for.

[Can we all try to stay sane.........please..........]

[innocentloveholic]

A fight doesn't always mean someone's gonna die, you know. In fact, fights almost never end in death..? Which is kinda disappointing, but it's also like, great for the hurt/comfort part of falling in love...

[ i'm... sorry.............. ]

[destage]

[so much politely constrained 'why']

W-well...if you're reading a novel at least, I suppose it's appealing. It can lead to some interesting things, but here...?

[innocentloveholic]

[ sayaka's gonna try to kill someone and get killed instead just to get away from being aligula's neighbor at this rate jfc ]

Here if we get hurt, it's still the totally cute situation of playing nurse~ And if someone dies, wellll... Then we get to leave. Or at least one of us does. [ Which is... good enough? ]

[destage]

[honestly, legit, what the fuck is wrong with you girl]

...Do we even have any medical supplies to help people? [SHE IS. TAKING A STEP BACK.] We should probably focus on finding something that'll actually prevent people from dying, first...?

[innocentloveholic]

[ look i fucking play her and i don't know. ]

...Oh, yeah, probably. I didn't see anything like a nurse's office or anything though..? [ ... ] That's actually pretty weird for a school, isn't it? Like, it's totally been years since I went, but I'm pretty sure there was one on the first floor.
