WEEK 0: MINGLE

[dormheads]

week zero: mingle

remaining students: forty-two.

Hey, wake up! Before you're late for school!

The first thing you'll receive when you wake up is a notification: Updated Dorm Wars Standings.

🦋 SPRING: 0
☀️ SUMMER: 0
🍁 FALL: 0
❄️ WINTER: 0

Fall has truly swept over the campus, and the colorful leaves will crunch underneath your feet as you walk through the school. In fact, your adventures might bring you to some new locations where construction has concluded. Take a look around!

On every building bulletin board, as well as on your phone, there's a new posting for this week's Dorm Wars tasks. Check out which answer resonates with you the most, and then get those points for your team! Speaking of your team, it seems like Office Hours are open for all Dorm Heads if you'd like to chat with them. Maybe see if there's anything you'd like to redeem a voucher for?

Once again, a now familiar ringtone plays from every student's phone. The screen will automatically open to the Student Directory. Everyone's ID Cards with their wonderfully flattering and fitting pictures are now out there for the world to see. How do you feel about yours?

A few classes in particular have been highlighted with open enrollment and can be joined for the week:

PHYS 760: Theoretical Physics
ENG 400: Does Shakespeare Is Gay?
FILM 198: Analysis of the Greats: Cats
ART 100: Coloring Inside the Lines

Finally, there also appears to be a hay ride attraction for everyone to enjoy. Yes, you can ride the tractor. No, you can't cause property damage. In fact, it seems like as you enjoy your hay ride or tractor joy ride, you may hear the occasional growl of a bear.... And just in case you need a nice cozy place to have all these deep, important conversations, a bonfire is located at the central campus lawn with blankets and wooden logs available for everyone to sit on - plus supplies for s'mores! Yay!

1. BACK TO SCHOOL;

[Dressed in a uniform with summer-dorm colored trim, sword still sheathed at her waist, Byleth is taking all the open classes, because of course she is. Now sitting at a table in the cafeteria with a basket of french fries, she's focused on homework. There's some physics printouts, several diligently-colored outlines of various animals (geese, fish, a lion that looks just different enough from the one in The Lion King to not get served with a copy strike), and several pages of a Shakespearean play—which she is currently studying with some confusion, flipping between the play, and a sheaf of her own notes.

As you approach her, she looks up, staring into the middle distance (possibly at you), and says, quietly and confidently:]

Gay.

[she's working on the pointing. keep studying, byleth!!]

2. HOPE TO HOPE;

[where are you? outside your dorm? emerging from one of the four classes? innocently eating in the Cafeteria when she slides down next to you? byleth is Here, and she has a question:]

What's your ideal future?

[her demeanor is friendly enough, at least—and nobody said it had to be a subtle task accomplishment. some people just go around asking questions.]

3. BONFIRE TEA;

[the crackle of burning wood, the smoke in your eyes, the toasty smores—what a lovely bonfire!

someone isn't just smoring it, though. Byleth has managed to bring out a pot full of water (with slight indent to pour) from the industrial kitchens, and finagle a placement for it on the side of the fire, ensuring it comes to a reasonable simmer. there's several mugs (one says BYLETH, so maybe don't use that one?), and when you approach, she looks up, from picking through packets of tea.]

Would you care to join me?

x. WILDCARD;

[go WILD, I am absolutely the kind of person you can wildcard without asking, but hit me up on disco if you're worried! ❤️]

[headmt]

Bi, actually. But thank you?

[whispers: don't]

[divineimpulse]

[she blinks, once, and stares at molly.]

...See you later?

[illuminance]

[ .............. ]

Not as such.

[divineimpulse]

[?

her eyes focus on lux, and she tilts her head.]

I thought the subtext made it clear...

[she stares at the script, a shadow of a frown flitting over her face. this is much harder than it looks.]

1

[disreguarded]

[well this is a prompt i can't resist]

I - yes? I have a name.

[divineimpulse]

Beauregard?

[she's properly looking at her, now, vague confusion drifting across her features.

there's a pause, as things process—but this time, she points.]

Gay?

[selfestheim]

[ if hope had a nickel for every time byleth got all up in his space while he was just sitting down and minding his own business, he'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice. ]

I feel like I should be exempt from having to answer this question.

[ he is already so tired ]

[divineimpulse]

[she nods encouragingly.

but she's not leaving.]

[heartlands]

[...]

I mean, yeah, but you don’t have to say it like that, you know...?

[divineimpulse]

[what

she stares at Rupert

and this time, with full confidence, she points:]

Gay!

[the self-study is paying off. she seems thrilled, if in a muted way.]

1

[duranduel]

...

[A long pause.]

Am I...?

[divineimpulse]

[byleth blinks, and cocks her head at Mandricardo. how long has he been there? what's he asking about?]

Are you...?

[she's just trying to elicit the question (whatever it is) out of him.]

1.

[chevaliered]

[ very seriously: ]

Congratulations on your journey of self-discovery.

[divineimpulse]

[...

she holds up "ROMEO & JULIET".]

[battling]

[Starts laughing! Doesn't stop laughing!]

I don't give a damn, long as I like 'em.

[divineimpulse]

What?

[...]

...Gay?

2 even tho i wanna tag 1 so bad also

[steelo]

[ ichiro is going to town on a bigass slice of pizza when byleth comes to sit by him in the cafeteria, so he's got his mouth full when he's asked this question. he blinks, twice, and then swallows. ]

Oh. For the tasks, right? For here, or for home, or what?

[divineimpulse]

Why not both?

[byleth has also brought pizza. that might be on purpose, or it might be a coincidence. you are free to suspect.]

1

[wtfox]

...um, I think I'm still figuring that out, actually?

[divineimpulse]

[!

oh, it's Lila,

she hums quietly, skimming the script. it sure seems gay.]

I feel I'm mostly decided.

[goalsides]

[i desperately want to tag 1 but also no so you get this. which is to say taichi's on his way back from somewhere, soccer ball under his arm, but the bonfire catches his attention anyway. and then there's byleth when he gets closer, so he tilts his head a little.]

Sure, I guess. Didn't think you were the kind to host tea parties.

i want to tag 1 so bad but unfortunately, 2

[txt]

[Just. Blinks at her. Before she starts laughing.]

Ahaha, you sure know how to get to the point! Is this for the task?

3!

[modissty]

[Because 1) Sakyou lives at the bonfire now and 2) we must keep our trend of food prompts...

He very much enjoys tea, actually! So he seems quite content with the offer, shuffling over to take a seat.]

I would, if you would care to have me. What is it that you've got there?

[TEA SELECTIONS.]

[commandertoolbelt]

[ leo is making a miniature jet fighter out of the coloring book pages from class. there is a small fleet surrounding him. his hands don't pause as he glances up at byleth, eyebrows raised. ]

Tooooo find a back to my friends, for one. I don't even get a hello?
