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.

rooms

[Luca is in Room 7, so she definitely would have had the chance to knock on his door before he exited his room. So she gets to see Luca in all his perfectly-groomed glory before he gets roughed up by any of the other participants.

He looks just as confused about being in that building as she does, though.
]

Ah. Hello there.

[And possibly a little worried, because dorms are segregated by sex at his university, so girls and boys shouldn't be waking up in the same building. Hopefully she doesn't tattle on him for being where he shouldn't be.]
sleepytimegal: (between the stacks in the library)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-10 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
...Iiii take it from that sharp look on your face you don't really know where we are either. Huh.

[ This is a swing and a miss, she's really got to work on her batting average. ]

Not a clue, no.

[He has his suspicions, but he's not sharing those suspicions with a teenage girl.]

But someone here must know, yes? There are several doors to try.

[It looks like he will be stepping out to look around too though, so Alex won't have to look alone!]
sleepytimegal: (listen close and don't be stoned)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-10 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I was hoping on, but no door I've knocked on has anyone who's familiar with the place so far. [ Still, she's not opposed to company. ]

[personal profile] notaccurate 2017-09-10 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
How many doors have you checked so far?
sleepytimegal: meaningless (▷ when we pass the time and it's all)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-11 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Three or so. Some people are out.
notaccurate: (16)

[personal profile] notaccurate 2017-09-11 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
And nobody else has known what is going on yet?
sleepytimegal: and all (▷ when we walk around and we're dizzy)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-11 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Shakes head. ] Not a soul.

[personal profile] notaccurate 2017-09-12 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm. That is worrying. If you haven't had any luck yet, then it might be that nobody here knows how they got here.

[That makes more sense than Alex randomly picking the handful of people who are in the dark.]
sleepytimegal: (you try to tell them everywhere i hide)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-12 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's...uncomfortable to think about, eesh... ]

I... You know, I was hoping someone had to...live here, with all these rooms.

Perhaps someone does, if there is-

[He stops suddenly, as he looks back at his own door. Specifically, at the nameplate.]

...why is that there? I did not put that there.
sleepytimegal: (▷ alison‚ i'm lost)

[personal profile] sleepytimegal 2017-09-14 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
There's one for me too. One for every door here, looks like. I don't think, uh...anyone put theirs there.

That is an unsettling level of dedication on someone's part.

I mean, this whole thing's kinda unsettling, if we've been, you know...kidnapped.
