WEEK 1

[whimsicalism]

WEEK ONE

This week, students at Ira Academy must return to class with their memories of the weekend hanging over them. The Principal is watching now, and he dislikes children even more than his initial draconian idea of education led everyone to believe. The rules revision is probably at the forefront of most people’s minds, along with the sinking paranoia of being monitored much more closely and more severely reprimanded for stepping out of line. This very empty academy building suddenly feels all the more claustrophobic. All students now have the option to commit murder and be freed from this school. Less than a week ago, you were teaching yourself to be friends with some of your fellow classmates. Will things remain that way, or will someone reveal themselves to be willing to take a life to escape?

But just because murder’s on the table doesn’t mean that your studies are off of it, and the Little Brothers are still here to helpfully encourage all students to complete their coursework. Despite being shepherded away at the end of the school dance announcement last night, this week the Prefect will be back for her office hours and, thankfully, less fixated on pulling off a successful weekend spelling bee and social event. Less thankfully, it seems she believes that completing your re-education as originally planned is the correct course of action. You’d do well to remember, perhaps, that right now your success reflects ultimately on her. Students who prefer to see how their fellow school denizen and prisoner-in-spirit can also sneak into the music room whenever it’s unoccupied to converse with A.

To that end, it also looks like someone’s posted a “Tutors and Study Groups” sign-up sheet on the hallway walls outside the A/V room. There are illustrated descriptions next to it, so even someone who doesn’t understand the writing should be able to glean its purpose. This seems like a good way for people who are interested in working together or helping one another with anything involved in school life. Students may make use of this resource as they will.

Finally, at the end of the hallway near the music room, a sliding wall has receded as if it was never there in the first place, revealing an unexplored area on this floor.. Hmm, what could be up there?

OOC NOTES

Welcome to Week 1! As with last week, if you have anything you’d like to investigate, you can bring mod responses in by pinging (INVESTIGATION) in your subject line. (SHEEP) for the Little Brothers. Unlike last week, Nanami can also be invited to participate in your threads with a (PREFECT) call-out. This is an option for anyone who wants non-private/event convos with her, if for some reason anyone wants to spend MORE time with her. If you are looking for information about the school’s mysteries, it's highly recommended you bring in the sheep or the mod journal instead!

Don’t forget your regains, and please submit your AC for week 0!

What's mine what's mine what's mine what's mine what's mine what's mine what's mine?

[Excited bat is excited.]

[temmapathy]

I thought about it a bit, and I thought this fits best:

[She signs "hero", but after the first hand movement segues into "bat" instead of the usual two-hand movement.]

[violence_ensues]

Coooooooooool...

Make one for Mao Mao and Badgerclops!

[temmapathy]

[Hmm...]

Can you tell me a bit more about them? So I know what traits to base their sign names on.

[violence_ensues]

[Prepare for major fangirl.]

Mao Mao's a really cool hero he crashed into the ruby pure heart and he has a sword and he's teaching me how to be a hero and he has a cool aerocycle and he has cool sword special moves and badgerclops has a cool robot arm that can transform into all sortsa things like a laser cannon and he was a bad guy but now he's a good guy-

[SLOW DOWN, BATKID.]

[temmapathy]

Whoa, whoa, slow down! [Emma waves a hand in a "slow-down" gesture as Adorabat babbles, before nodding.]

Okay, I think I got what you said...

[She signs "red-heart" using the lip-tapping sign for "red" and the core synonym for "heart," along with "robot-arm" using the first sign for "robot."]
