Remembuh me? The roomie log turned out to be a success, and a lot of really awesome interactions took place. Because of this, I've decided it was about time to post round two. The name has been changed a little because I think it reflects the premise slightly better.

Basically, here's what this is: we all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good portal for those kinds of miscellaneous dorm-shenanigans to take place. Not only does it give your characters the easy chance to meet new people in a laid-back environment but it's a good mechanism for strengthening CR and the like. Some examples can be seen in the link I provided if you fight through the buttload of comments in case I'm sort of unclear.

So how do we start? It's up to you, really. Don't have any plans with anyone else but want your character bugged? Start a thread. It helps to staple dates and times, but you can keep that completely ambiguous if you really don't care/it doesn't matter. So disembark and wreak havoc amongst yourselves! Set up karaoke and sing loudly to further improve relations with dorm neighbors! Jack cylindrical fluorescent light bulbs from the supply closet and fight like Jedi Masters! Build couch forts with other people's laundry! (...ew?) Hold a "study session" with that special someone of yours! Harass teachers and students alike with your inane questions! What bountiful possibilities await you.

"Personal vendetta," she explained. "Someone must really hate him." Pause. "I wonder if it's Goroh? They never race together until the Death Race, you know."

Ping. "He did say a lot of people were out to get him... It makes a ton of sense! ...What's Death Race?"

[thewunderkind]

"Exactly what it says," she grinned, turning over a panel on the wall so her computer could come out. "Want to see a video?"

Uh-oh. His interest was unavoidably snagged, and it showed in the way he looked at her. "Duh! Show me show me!" He couldn't even keep still about it.

And lo, there was a video. A video of inflated egos, over acting and terrible post-interviews. But there was so much hype!

Oh and an ad at the end of the that first terrible F-zero movie. Now on DVD.

Enough hype for Pit to get excited, then. Which doesn't take much, actually.

"Wow... That? Was intense." His hands were still balled into fists and sparkles were still stuck in his eyes, it seemed. "So it must be the final showdown!"

[thewunderkind]

"Kinda. It's not the grand prix, but one of the last races of the season or something." Lash shrugged. "Sometimes I wonder if it's just rigged."

"Oh." Pit calmed down a little after the built up buzz had drained from his system. "So you think Goroh might be jealous... Well, I'm sure a lot of people would be jealous, not just Goroh. So that leaves a lot of people who could have made Blood Falcon. And I don't have enough clues to find out who. Jeez..."

It almost seemed like a hopeless venture at this point, and Pit was nearly ready to give up on searching out that clone of his because of how exhausting pulling the components of this mystery apart seemed from his position. Besides... Falcon HAD wanted the fight to be between him and his clone, no one else. But he was only helping him FIND him, not fight him. Maybe it really wasn't in his place to help out. Lash certainly seemed more well-equipped than anyone, both in experience and technological know-how, but would she really be all that excited to run off helping Falcon with his problem?
