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.

"Then you remember that... You remember! I thought you had been unconscious then!"

If she was remembering that and also going back to carrying guns around, it meant she really had won out over her reprogramming, hadn't it? But instead of relief, he could only worry about what that meant for her now. He couldn't allow her to be reduced to scrap metal over this, but if she killed again...

"Can you recall anything else?"

"I..." Her legs began to curl in toward her body. "You..." Didn't save me. "Didn't..." She just couldn't say it.
forgetbeam: (BALLS)

oh god

"I didn't what? Hey, answer me!"

Even if he knew he wouldn't like the answer.

The panic that came with his order whipped through her chest, crashed through her heart, burned the corner of the room with a red fire before she yelled,

"You didn't save me!"

And the glow faded, its reveal of the truth drawn to a close and once again they remained in darkness. It was as if they'd never leave, swallowed by it as she had been in her own mind.

Her words were like a spear slamming straight through his heart, but he'd painted the target himself. She was only confirming what he already knew and hated.

For a few painfully drawn out moments he was silent, just watching her.

"...Do you hate me for it?"

[personal profile] thereyouare 2014-01-24 11:22 am (UTC)(link)
"I don't know." And it was the truth. Even if she knew exactly what it meant to really hate him, she wondered if she could keep it up.

She shook her face into her pillow again. "I don't know," she whispered. But her real concern was if he was angry with her for finding out, but she was too afraid to ask.

Even a direct "yes" would have been better than that. He stood, fists clenched at his sides, and made a mental note of where all the scattered guns lay.

"I'm going to try to find somebody who can repair your vision."

For a moment she wondered if that meant he wasn't mad at her. God, did she want to ask...!

But, "Okay," was all she could force out of her mouth. Even if she could see, she knew she couldn't look at him.

"Thank you for... helping me."

HA HA. NO CUDDLES FOR YOU.

"Of course. That's my duty to you." If he couldn't at least do that, what good was he?

He stooped to grab what weapons he could off the floor and made to leave.
