WEEK 3

WEEK THREE


Two weeks, two trials, four deaths.

One thing is certain: The monster in charge of this place knows enough about everyone here that he also knows what can drive some of them desperate enough to kill. He is powerful, and he has access, and he despises the whole student body. The face of the class' captor has been revealed now, in a sense, and the flames of his hatred for children have turned out to be very real.

At least, for now, the students of Ira Academy have one another to lean on. Some might have found the post-trial camaraderie a comfort. At least everyone hasn't given up hope. At least many students are still finding their anger and their will to fight back.

There are fewer pretenses this coming week. Classes proceed as normal; the school day still functions as normal, but the further everyone comes from that first fateful meeting with the man in charge of this school, the further away and more incomprehensible the thought that there was ever really a chance of going along with the original plan, completing reeducation, and staying safe.


...Of course, you could still try. There'd be nothing stopping you.

But you won't, will you? That's just how the students of Ira Academy are. You'll visit the third floor of the Academy, ascending the newly opened flight of stairs. Maybe you'll investigate one of the new rooms, dwarfed by the echoes that bounce of the uninvitingly tall ceilings. There's probably still something in this place on your side.

Will you work together, or will you grow further apart?

OOC NOTES


Welcome to Week 3! New locations have been added and the third floor is now open for exploration. The library is a very large space and more than one person can investigate it throughout the week if you'd like. If you want to investigate one of the Floor 3 rooms, please hit the mods with a ping in Discord and put INVESTIGATE in your subject line.

As a reminder, AC runs Sunday to Sunday concurrent with these posts and is collected based on the prior week; this means you have a whole week to get in AC for the week prior. AC for week 2 should be submitted no later than this coming Sunday. Remember to submit your regains, and sign up for a spot exploring this week's mystery if you want to!

I'm not exactly a kitten whisperer, but I can try?

[ahem, tentatively approaching the shelf]

Excuse meow, could you purrchance paws in one place?

[She jumps on his head and onto the floor, running for it]

... So DO you have the helmet?

[With that, Fret will at least try to run after the kitten]

...it's a cat.

[Said like Fret's idea of a cat not understanding him is insane.

Dylan watches the exchange, blowing his nose into another tissue. When Fret's ignored, he can't help but raise an eyebrow, but also bring the tissue back up to cover his nose, letting out a bigger AH-CHOO! as the kitten runs past him and out the door.]


Yeah, got from...someone else got it, I got it back.

[Following after, pace much slower, but still audible to Fret.]

Is she really young? Like, barely can even speak young?
shinedsobright: (She was his queen)

Dude, I dunno how that works in a place like Closetland.

[in fact talking dogs and cats seem more like the exception to him, but who knows if you can teach a kitten to speak in the land of whimsy?? Maybe it would work out if they really believe!!]

So far any animals that come out of the machine don't talk, though.

The only animal's I've heard of being in there are Polly and the turtles, and if you all only know dog, duck, bat and hedgehog the-ah...AH-CHOO!

[Kept in the tissue that time, mostly. Also didn't grow from the last sneeze, which is an improvement!]

...then you're only gonna understand dog, duck, bat and hedgehog.

[Downside, that probably sounds insane, doesn't it? And how can a dog look and sound sick and condescending at the same time?]
shinedsobright: (Dril)

Yeah, and I only understand animals cause this place is magic or whatever. You give it a try if you know so much.

[because Fret is still trying to figure out where she even went... but just then, he spots her running out the door to the playground]

Oh crap!

[He'll be trying a little harder to catch up now, outdoors bad]
