INTRO MINGLE


week zero: mingle

remaining students: forty-two.


A buzzing alarm wakes you bright and early. You blink your eyes blearily, greeted by the sun's rays peeking through the blinds of a window. It's 7 AM, and it feels like you definitely went to bed way too late last night. Oh well, up and at 'em! Time to start your day! Except...

...this place looks unfamiliar. You're in a room with other people who are also waking up. Outside of the window is a large, sprawling school campus touched by the start of warm autumn colors. In the bathroom is--wow, another door through which are two more confused people in a similar room. Suite mates! In addition, if you go exploring within your dorm, you may find special access to a certain room. Though as you wander about, make sure you take a glance at the rules that are posted at each building.

Welcome to Wiwaldi Academy!

Outside on campus, the air is crisp. In the morning, your feet will crunch over a light frost and fallen leaves. The rest of the day is mild, but sweater and jackets may be needed in the evening and during the night. The sky is bright blue and empty except for an occasional stray cirrus cloud or two. It seems like fall is on the horizon.

🦋 ☀️ 🍁 ❄️


In each room, students will find their own laptops with a welcome screen:

Thank you for joining us at the beautiful campus of Wiwaldi Academy! All classes officially begin on Monday. Students are encouraged to enjoy leisure time on campus this weekend. Please be mindful as new additions to the campus are in construction, and these are off-limits to students until completion.

The icon in the top right corner corresponds to your dorm: Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter. Even though you are all sorted by a particular dorm, please don't hesitate to meet and mingle with one another! You all will have plenty of opportunity to do so on Saturday during the Sundae Orientation. An ice cream bar will be on the campus lawn between the dormitory buildings from 12PM onward, and everyone is invited to come meet and mingle while playing introductory games.

Don't forget to think about your EXTRA CREDIT! It's a chance for you to get ahead on your work. You wouldn't want anyone else stealing your extra credit for themselves, so keep all extra credit assignments under lock and key.

From all of us here at Wiwaldi Academy, we wish you great success on your future endeavors!

Signed,
Principal Bear

Welcome to the Intro Mingle and the start of our game, everyone! Feel free to use the Saturday orientation as prompts for your top-levels. If you have any questions, you may use the Discord #questions-for-mods channel, or DM your mods (Dana, Francy, Anna, and Jan) directly. If you don't have all of us added, just let one of us know, and we'll create the mod DM for you.

A friendly reminder is that IC Profiles are not ICly unlocked yet. Please also stay tuned for Something Else on Sunday at 12 PM / 3 PM EST.

[With his two-handed sword in tow, he looks at her in bewilderment.]

What? Are you serious?

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
My, do I look like I'm joking?

[ she doesn't. ]

If it's too low then it'll just be offensive.

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
[She'd make a terrible comedian.]

Why would I kidnap someone for a ransom? That's more trouble than it's worth.

Why else would you kidnap someone?!

[ gasps ]

I'm not marrying you.
ercnerd: (11)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Who said anything about marriage?
floristic: (pic#14938554)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going down the list of kidnap motives!
ercnerd: (01)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Why is marriage so high . . . ?

Don't get so excited, Blue. If a stalker's responsible for bringing you here, I'll take care of them.

[ not blue. the correction is important. ]

[Okay, Blue.]

This was an international kidnapping, I guess.

[ he must be european with that name ]
ercnerd: (01)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
International? I'd call it interdimensional.
floristic: (pic#14938481)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
In... interdimensional?!

This isn't some anime!
ercnerd: (02)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know what that is, but it's true! You and I definitely aren't from the same dimension.
floristic: (pic#14938606)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
How do you know this? Are you saying it because I'm Asian?

[ fuckin europeans ]
ercnerd: (24)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[A-what.]

If that's what you think . . . does Aernas ring any bells?
floristic: (pic#14938517)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that an airline...?

[ sounds like it........ ]
ercnerd: (02)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[A-what.]

Aernas is the name of my world.

I've been to many dimensions in the last few years. Believe me; I know what I'm talking about!
floristic: (pic#14938485)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
This is way too crazy.

[ this is either interdimensional or he's a chuuni ]

Hey. So if you go to different dimensions, then how do we leave?
ercnerd: (01)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It depends on the dimension. Usually there's a portal involved.
floristic: (pic#14938477)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Can you make one? Get us out of here.
ercnerd: (01)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not that easy, Blue. I'm a gladiator, not a wizard.

Ka... Kaoruko...
ercnerd: (04)

[personal profile] ercnerd 2021-06-05 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
If we can't find a way out by Monday, we're just going to have to wait for classes to start before we make our move.
floristic: (pic#14938554)

[personal profile] floristic 2021-06-05 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I already go to school! They can't just enroll me in a different one!!
