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.

This was a guy who'd probably had sex before.

"But you've talked about it, right?"

Sure, Falcon personally couldn't get behind the whole chastity-until-marriage thing, but he wasn't going to begrudge a couple if that was their choice. Because it was their choice, right. Because they'd sat down like the mature adults they were and talked about it, right? RIGHT?!

Probably had sex before.

"Not...really, sir."

He was in for it now. He knew it, he could feel it. Mac felt completely ridiculous.

DRINK YOUR DRINK, MAC. Falcon was certainly drinking his drink.

"Mac, before you propose to someone, there are a few important adult talks that are...generally good to have. With your significant other. Sex is one of those talks. Finances is another. Children, careers...I know it's probably really exciting to think about proposing and planning a wedding, but after that, you're married, and there are a lot of practical things to think about."

He wasn't sure about the drink just yet. He felt drunk enough without it. Falcon's statement hit probably a little harder than he expected. Mac looked to the table in front of him, staring down the drink, almost tempted to drink it anyway. He knew what would happen if he did, so he tried telling himself not to.

"That's a lot of stuff to talk about," he slowly admitted. "I mean, we ain't even come close to stuff like that."

He drifted off from that last statement, did he really think this through? Sex, careers, finances, and children: the subjects that started now coming to him. How did he feel about any of this, and how could he convey it to Falcon? He thought hard.

"I mean, ever since I was on my own I told myself I wanted to start a family someday. Yeah, even have some kids," he spoke again as he was starting to think about where his confidence in this stood now. "I think things are alright financially, and we have careers and jobs to do so..."

"No, Mac, that's not what I--"

Falcon sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose between two fingers. He couldn't really blame someone so young for being so short-sighted, but hopefully he could sort of nudge him in the right direction before he got down on one knee.

"You need to have those discussions with her," he said finally, folding his arms. "I mean, what if after graduation you get a job here and she has to go back to her kingdom. She's a princess, right? She's got responsibilities back home. Maybe you want kids, but does she? You haven't even talked about whether or not you want to have sex; you don't even know if you two get along while living together."
