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.

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?

"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?"

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."
