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!

[He's making a lot of chili dogs, but he's also run out of chili! GASP!!

So now he's making some different types of dogs to use up the rest of the stuff.]

UUUUUUUUUGH!! Why did the Principal do this?!!


[He doesn't quite notice Emma yet, though she can still lip read him.]

[temmapathy]

[...well, that's probably not good. She's going to wait until he's not doing anything that looks too time-sensitive before approaching and waving. Once he's focused on her, she'll start signing.]

Do what?

[canreallymove]

They took the juice out of the Power Ring! Now I have no speed AND I can't calm down!!

[JUST MAKIN' HOT DOGS, SOOOO MANY HOT DOGS, maybe he's going to run out soon so MAYBE he should make something else-]

[temmapathy]

[She looks at the ring.] Hey, I think I got one of those out of the machine! You want me to get it and see if that helps?

[canreallymove]

M-maybe?

[Please don't make him more hopped up without juice, please please pleaaaaase-]

[temmapathy]

[Emma just wants to be helpful! She'll run off to her room, coming back after some time with another ring that she holds out.]

Here you go!

1/2

[canreallymove]

Ok, here goes nothin'!

[A flash of light, and-]

[Wow, uh, can someone vibrate from too much sugar?

Because this is the closest equivalent that will probably happen. Oh, and of course, no speed.]


I-I-I-I.

HA-A-A-A-AATE THIS PLACE!!

[temmapathy]

I think we all do. [She waits for him to stop screaming, mostly so that he'll actually be looking at her hands.]

[canreallymove]

Uuuuugh.

[Ok, he's looking now at least.]

Man, even Robotropolis is better than this! I at least could kick the butts of things and peoples I don't like!

[temmapathy]

That does sound nice. I wish it was like that everywhere. [Emma wishes every day you could just beat up all the corrupt businesspeople in her world until they stopped.]

[canreallymove]

Agreed! It's a GREAT feeling-

[Ding.]

Oh, the bread is ready. Mind if you grab it from the oven?

[temmapathy]

[She nods, hurrying to grab an oven mitt and carefully open up the oven door a smidge, sniffing to get a good grasp of the bread's scent.]
