Welcome.


It doesn't matter where you last were or what you were doing. What matters is that you're waking up in a decently comfortable bed in a room that's completely unfamiliar. You may feel a bit groggy, like you've slept for too long, but that will fade in time.

Welcome to Graceside Preparatory Academy.

You may want to pick up the key to your room before you leave, though don't worry. Your door won't lock automatically so you won't be locked out if you've forgotten to pick it up. The hallway outside your room is most likely full of other confused students 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 stuck in here for the time being.

The foyer also holds some very interesting information. There's a bulletin board with twenty-nine 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 students. You might be stuck here for awhile.

[Kaneki nods, shifting his weight from one foot to the other as he looks back at the steel bulkhead.]

A lot of people here are, I'm sure.

[It's about now that Kaneki realizes he's been talking to everyone without ever...properly introducing himself, even though they all can get a vague knowledge of one another from those profiles. It doesn't feel right.]

You're...Katsuki-san, right?
blazeit: (i might be a bastard but you're stupid s)

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-02 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. And you're... Acquiescent.

[ Look, he's bad with names, but the important thing is he identified Kaneki... right? ]

... Now that I think about it, that's not exactly a great adjective to have here. [ Not as bad as volatile, though... ]
samsa: (Loser □ there's a bird on my head)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-02 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods slightly, though he frowns at the title.]

Yeah. I don't...really like it, either.

...you can call me Kaneki, though.
blazeit: (i might be a bastard but you're stupid s)

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-02 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I kinda fucking hate my adjective too. [ Yet he keeps calling everybody else by their title... ] It's kinda creepy that we even have them at all.
samsa: (Pause □ there's something in my bag)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-02 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
What do you think they're supposed to be for?
blazeit: (frick frackin no)

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-02 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it sure feels like it's to make fun of us. Although maybe the guys with like, gilded or unbreakable or adroit feel differently.

[ Meanwhile, here he is with a descriptor that sounds like it was ripped from an extremely unflattering psych eval. ]
samsa: (Eeehh □ something isn't right there)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-02 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure they do...

[He trails off, glancing away for a moment.]

Do you feel like yours is accurate at all?

[If he's honest with himself, his...does have some truth in it. The Conductor just decided to pick the worst sort of descriptor for reasons he can't fathom.]
blazeit: (do u have shit for brains)

[ For a few moments, Bakugou looks like he kind of wants to strangle somebody, possibly himself. ]

I mean.

I guess I can see where it comes from.

[ ... ... ... ]

But still, fuck that guy, this is fucking defamation!!
samsa: (Unamused □ oh my god really)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-02 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I...I understand what you mean. It isn't really fair to give just a handful of us titles that are so...

[...]

...unpleasant.
blazeit: (that's so fucking offensive)

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-02 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Right?! And I mean, like, what the fuck is the actual difference between "volatile" and "dynamic", huh?! [ One sounds nicer and that is it, in his humble opinion. ] While I'm at it, what the hell's with all the vague ones, too... temporal? Universal?
samsa: (Texting □ Chie this is a pic of a bush)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-03 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaneki shrugs, running a hand down the side of his face.]

Your guess is as good as mine. I'm sure it's some sort of judge of their character, not that it makes much sense.
blazeit: (his butthurt is so strong)

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-03 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'd kinda hope we're all temporal, but yeah... I just wonder if it's all for shits and giggles, or if there's an actual meaning to it.
samsa: (Lying □ I ain't no truther)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-03 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
It feels like they could be important, maybe...if only because they're all very specific.

[And most are pretty big words, now that he thinks about it. If he wasn't such a literature buff, he doubts he would have known what Acquiescent meant.]

[personal profile] blazeit 2015-11-04 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I feel like somebody doesn't go through the effort of assigning us names for no damn reason. Even if that reason is having a seriously bad personality.

[ Wow. Look at who's talking about bad personalities. ]
samsa: (Gesture □ arglebargle)

[personal profile] samsa 2015-11-04 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaneki tries not to, but he smiles a little at that.]

Yeah. I'm sure we'll find out their purpose eventually...even if it ends up taking a while.
