Induction.
| You've all had some time to get to know each other; whether or not you're all getting along is another matter. Either way, one thought pattern seems to be pretty prevalent, no matter what you think of this entire situation – Where, exactly, is the Conductor? That question isn't going to be answered in full, even now; if you were hoping to work out exactly who the Conductor is...well, that's not going to be readily answered, either. What you are going to get, however, is the sound of that public address box mounted into the wall somewhere above your heads crackling to life; it's staticky and a little grating at first, like someone's fiddling with the volume control somewhere, but eventually it clears up. "Ah, is it..?" It's a little uncertain at first, but that, too, clears up soon enough; it's a male voice, at least that much is discernible. "Greetings to the lot of you, the new class at Graceside Academy; I trust you've familiarized yourself with the rules. "You can call me the Conductor." |

C-Conductor, sir, are- are you, um... A-are you a ghost? Because I did not mean to s-summon anything or do anything to disturb you or make you unhappy, I swear!
[It starts off a little soft and stammery, but she gets more insistent with every word.]

[What in the actual world, child - ]
I can assure you that I'm still among the living, and I'm not any sort of supernatural being, either.
no subject
[Oh! ...Oh. Does this make her feel better or not?? This is the most unsettling moment here so far, give her a moment, Conductor.]
B-but- you're the guy, the one from the lodge, right?! You're the- where's Josh, I didn't see him!

...Why do you keep calling everyone those? Discerning, or...Ardent, or whatever the heck. You know our names. Is it...more convenient for you? Whoever...you are.
no subject
Do you have argument with yours?

[She swallows.]
You really don't know where my friends are?

[This is incredibly surreal, talking to her captor over the PA of an unfamiliar school.]
no subject
[No, really, what- ]
I don't understand what you're referring to.
no subject
...The lodge. In the lodge! Josh was screaming, a-and I went to go and see what was happening, and- that's the last thing I remember, a man in a mask knocked me out and now I'm here, so that was you, wasn't it?!
[...she is starting to get more and more panicked with every word.]
no subject
No, it wasn't. Not at all.
no subject
Oh. O-oh. Th-that was someone e-else. O-kay. Okay then.
[it's time to hide away in the room she woke up in]
no subject
You okay, hon?
no subject
Ashley's getting very tired of answering this question because the answer is, every single time, in some form:] No. I don't want to be here at all.
no subject
None of us do. But, it's okay! As long as we all stick together, we'll get out of this just fine!

Okay. Okay, right. Out of here, in one piece. Sure.
