Induction.

[antitrust]

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."

[sunsong]

What happened to your eye, anyway?

[ things you shouldn't just ask people ]

[samsa]

[He pauses for a moment, glancing down. His left hand rises to touch his chin as he answers with a small shake of his head.]

Infection. Not...really anything I could help.

[sunsong]

That sucks. At least you didn't get it like, torn out by a monster or something, though.

[ com...fort? ]

[samsa]

[...if you only knew, Sol.]

It's...unpleasant, but it could be worse.

[sunsong]

...So what's your favorite color?

[ MAYBE SHE FINALLY REALIZED THAT TOPIC WAS RUDE? ]

[samsa]

[LATCHING ONTO THAT LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS TBH

not that people aren't around them screaming at the voice coming out the box, or anything]

Um...maybe blue, I guess? Blue's a nice color.

[And comprises a lot of his usual wardrobe, incidentally. He has a hoodie so teal it'll make you go blind if you look at it for too long.]

[sunsong]

Aww, are you trying to flatter me?

[ says the girl with blue hair and blue eyes in a blue outfit ]

[samsa]

That just means you have good taste, I think.

[#na...iled it...]

[sunsong]

Well that one is obvious!! [ again with the unwavering confidence... ] What do you think is gonna be under likes and dislikes for this guy...?

[samsa]

Being straightforward as a dislike seems accurate, right?

[sunsong]

[ congrats, she giggled. GUYS, HE CAN PROBABLY HEAR YOU... ]

Well, of course! Though I guess if you have this sort of job, it's pretty much required to be cryptic, right?

[samsa]

[PROBABLY BUT...well maybe he's preoccupied answering other questions he doesn't know]

Yeah, that makes sense. It wouldn't be smart to give away everything as someone who kidnapped almost thirty people.

[sunsong]

I'll settle for the basic details, at least...it was smart thinking to get that for us.

[ who knows if it will help at all but AT LEAST IT WILL BE BETTER THAN NOTHING ]

[samsa]

We'll have to see what he actually decides to put on his profile, but it will be good to have, at least. If we have to have everything about ourselves public for all to see, then it's only fair that he do the same.

[sunsong]

Guess all we can do is look forward to tomorrow!

[samsa]

I'll be looking for it in the morning. You can come look with me if you would like, Sol-san.

[sunsong]

Yeah, sure, I'd like that! Want to meet up in the foyer first thing, then?

[samsa]

That sounds good to me.

[Heee...doubts he'll be getting much sleep tonight anyway, but since it seems like they'll be here a while, what choice do they have?]

[sunsong]

See you then, then!

[ she'll probably sleep, but she's used to being imprisoned... ]
