DORM LOGS: Now with EVENTS!

Who: All of Smash.
What: Dorm log! January edition.
Where: Student and Teacher dorms, and quite possibly beyond campus.
When: Approximately the latter half of January to the earliest of Februaries (15th - 5th)
Warnings: YOU KNOW YOURSELVES

We all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good venue 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. It's easy!

Feel free to begin in any way you please! Plan with (a) fellow player(s) if you'd like! Or, set up a thread and wait for characters to bite! Just add a thread with the room number (and date/time, if it matters) and the characters that reside there (just for reference!). You do not have to use one character's thread as a dual-purpose for both characters if you do not want to. Doesn't have to be a dorm room, either, if you have something else in mind. It could be the common room or the student science lab or wherever.

BUT WAIT!!!!!!

This time, we're shaking things up. On certain days, there will be an event going on that might help if you can't think of a good scenario to kick off a thread with. Here is the list!*

1/18: Hypno's Naptime. Much like the anime episode of the same name, there are mysterious sleep waves pulsing through town. No one is sure where they're coming from- it could be a rowdy Hypno that took over a broadcasting station one day, or maybe it's the local Disco Drowzee club that opened up just recently and their collective moves are enough to make you snooze. Well, these sleep waves might make you catch onto some unexpected z's, but more likely they can give you strange effects. Don't limit it to thinking you're a Pokemon, either. They can trick you into believing you're something else entirely, or just give you the urge to slip on a chicken costume and table dance in front of a crowd without finding it socially inappropriate. Just. WEIRD STUFF, MAN. Anything is possible.
1/19 - 1/25: Nancy's going on vacation. That's right, you sorry saps aren't gonna know what to do with yourselves now that no one's cooking for you. There was gonna be a substitute lunch bear/lady/alien space creature, but for whatever reason, they never showed up. So now, everyone must FEND FOR THEMSELVES. How will you fare if you don't even know how to flip a spatula?
1/25 - 1/27: Ice Cream Blizzard. Oh, you poor, starving Smashers. Not only are you bereft of nutrition, but it's cold and snowing and you can barely get out of the building without freezing solid! You might just perish, but wait- if you step outside and try to catch snowflakes with your tongue, you might just realize that it's... snowing ICE CREAM?!
1/29-1/31: Goomba Infestation. Everything is Goombas for 2 days in the boys dorms. Bowser is dicking around with "Itchymarbles" again, and it just spills out across the entire dorms. This prank has the unfortunate side effect of, well, affecting everyone on campus, and not just Scratchy McMarbles, so you might wanna be careful opening that fridge, since the wrong kinds of mushrooms might start pouring out. Jumping on them might work, but it's gonna take a lot of hopscotch to decimate an entire roomful!

This is a bit of an experiment, so... we'll see what comes of this.

*Note: These were determined by rng. Any other suggestions will be recycled for next time if the event aspect is successful.

"Brown...?" Vivian's heart was starting to settle, so her vision was somewhat becoming stable once again. She leaned back to try and see his face better, but the infrared never gave her details to work with. She just had to go by some weak shapes and by the looks of it, she guessed it could be her new friend.

She had this problem with her partner, too, and she was feeling what others would call guilt. She just felt sick.

Carefully her hand rose up to try and reach out for him. "I can't see very well," she murmured, cold fingers shaking and stiff.

Nervously, he gently hold her cold fingers, doing his best to ignore the cold sensation upon touching Vivan's hands. He didn't say anything--

"Oh, that's somewhat of a relief."

He didn't want to say anything, and would be content in remaining in silence and comforting Vivian if it weren't for some unfortunate circumstances.

"I'm gonna kick Henry's ass the moment I see him- I mean, I'm relieved that you still remember me, but I'm really worried now. How much can you see?"

Vivian's main priority triggered with his threat and Brown's poor fingers were met with a sudden weighty grip.

"No! No violence." She wasn't going to loosen her hold or answer until he agreed!
cowardlyjustice: (uuaaaa!!)

[personal profile] cowardlyjustice 2014-01-20 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
God, why was this girl freakishly strong.

Time to try and convince Vivian that it wasn't entirely literal ass-kicking, or at least try to refrain to.

"Holy sh-- that's not it, Henry cursed me so I'd only speak the truth, i-it puts me in a disadvantage a-a-at least several times s-since situation like just now b-becomes even more awkward that my usual fuckups!" Brown's voice was evidently fluctuating between high and low as he quickly said that, it seemed like he was pretty close to screaming like a girl at any moment now. "Leggo Vivian! Leggo, you're crushing my hand- oh god why are you as strong as demons, oh god!"

"T-This curse is extremely bullshit, holy fucking shit, owowowow!"

Henry, Henry...

Oh, maybe she should stop thinking and loosen her hold on his hand. She does let up on the grip, but she still tries to hang on so she doesn't lose him in her blindness.

"Thank you," she began, then tapped the steel plate surrounding her eye. "I can see you here."
cowardlyjustice: (huh...)

[personal profile] cowardlyjustice 2014-01-20 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Thanks," he sighed in relief.

But then he looked over to where she pointed. Her chest.

"So that's what that is. A third eye, huh? Heh, you're really like a demon in a way- but you're way too cute to be a demon. Like, little sister cute. What happened to the other two?

"Wait. There's more important business than that! D'you want a pair of spares to guide you places? Have you been eating right? You want an extra coat, or I can summon Pyro Jack to warm you out or-"

He facepalmed. "I sound just like my mother just now, holy fuck. I mean like, I'm really worried an' all and I guess concern was practically a third nature next to feelin' insecure and I just want to make sure you've been doing alright and all."

Sure, he manage to control it out for most part; but once he starts panicking, it was back to being like the first day of getting cursed.

Although Vivian didn't appear to be paying attention with her misguided stare, when he finally was able to shut his mouth for a second, he may notice she's smiling.

"Your mom sounds nice."
cowardlyjustice: (Being my true self?)

[personal profile] cowardlyjustice 2014-01-20 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"She's pretty all right, we used to bake sweet stuff and she taught me how to do them in case she was out, I guess our relationship is pretty good. Not that I have bad one with my dad, just I'm more close to my m--

Wait, are you saying that you mean I'm nice?" He asked as he looked back up to Vivian. There was no mistaking it, those are possibly what they'd called a smile that is wholeheartedly sincere.

"I'm not nice, Vivian. I consider myself as a lot of things, but I don't really consider myself nice." Brown said quietly.

Her chin rose, disabled eyes trying to find someone she'll never be able to see with them. She tried to catch his voice in the darkness, but she still wasn't on target. Not that it mattered, because -

"You must be nice," she said to disagree. And with her smile back on, "We built a snowman." Her fingers brushed into his skin as if to make sure he was still there. "And we became friends."

"Right, you can't see right now, sorry." Brown said distractedly as he laced his fingers back to Vivian's.

"I don't really know though, sometimes I feel like I'm bein' nice for my own personal reasons, I guess. I'm not entirely sure how to sum up my feelings, I'm just lacking a filter right now which is why I'm kind of easy talking about it, otherwise I'd actually stammer and trip on my words.

"Then again, my brain's like a train-wreck of thoughts, so I'm tripping on my ideas all together. Point is that, I guess I just don't really think I'm all that. It's kinda ironic on it's own, I'm all talk but even I don't believe my bullshit."

Well, you thoroughly confused her, Brown. His words were running laps around her head as she tried to process them all, but very few were successfully translated to something she could comprehend.

"Uhm... Sometimes I have difficulty thinking, too. Or... no. Speaking? Aah..." Oh no. She just wanted him to understand that she could relate, but how do.

"I don't understand what is in 'all that' but, uhm, do you hate being nice?" If that was the case, maybe she was bothering him?
cowardlyjustice: (strangely solemn)

[personal profile] cowardlyjustice 2014-01-22 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"It basically means I'm overconfident of my own abilities," Brown explained. "Truth is that I don't believe in myself at all 's what I'm trying to say."

He sighed, "look it's not you, it's more of my own problems that I tend to muddle around more than enough that people would probably sick of hearin' it if they weren't sick of me in general first."

There was so much Vivian didn't understand about Brown's words. He was going into a depth of human complexity that she could never dream of reaching right then, but it was a place she hoped she could one day fit in.

Vivian tilted her head as she absorbed his feelings as best as she could, then made a response she thought suitable.

"You don't make me sick, Brown," she tried at first, sighing when she isn't sure that's the correct response. It's... true, but did he mean something else?

"Uhm... can I help you?" She tightened her fingers against his hand. "Somehow?"
cowardlyjustice: (I'll admit I actually think I'm a loser)

[personal profile] cowardlyjustice 2014-02-01 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
He scratched the back of his neck, furiously even. This would be the part where he would think- actual thinking. But, with that god awful curse latching on him like leech, his words would sound more absurd than the nervous chatter that usually happens.

"No," he said as he let the curse takes it course. Maybe it was for the better, he had thought. "I mean, thanks, you can help somehow. Definitely. But, it's also something that mostly needs to be fixed by myself."
