INTRO MINGLE
week zero: mingleremaining 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

Sweet, let's go check it out! I dunno what those other things are but if they're free we can take a bunch!
no subject
TO THE VENDING MACHINES!
[ she takes the lead to guide him there, leaving behind a trail of condoms ]
no subject
Did you make that hat? Or is there like a condom clown making stuff?
no subject
(lemme know if you wanna overflow!)
[they get to the vending machines and he just starts smashing buttons to see what comes out]
So what can you do with this stuff that's not "balloons"? Anything fun?
(i overflow when i DIE)
Yeah!!! You can make a wig out of these, or a mustache! And if you're really good at firing them fast, you could use 'em like a nyarf gun! Or, ooh--these are super soft, you could make a whole blanket out of them! Or use the sticky bits to climb up walls like one of those super cool spies!
(hell yeah HELL YEAH)
he pokes it, testing it out]
I bet...if we put a bunch on the walls, we could run into them and it wouldn't even hurt!
no subject
Yeah! We could make, like--a bouncehouse anywhere we want!
We can make this whole place a bouncehouse!!
no subject
What's a bouncehouse??
no subject
You poor, deprived soul...
A bounce house is a house where you bounce!!! It's like--made up out of inflated balloons and soft stuff and then you can jump around like crazy and smash into everything without getting hurt!
no subject
You really think we could make something like that with these sticky things??
no subject
[ She picks up a load of condoms and tampons and pads from the pile I'm sure has accumulated on the floor around them and throws them up like confetti. ]
no subject
[he starts gathering them up, ripping the paper off and sticking them all over the hallway outside]
no subject
[ And press the button she does, a rapidfire one-two punch of both hands mashing on the button as fast as it can go. Pads practically go flying like they're being thrown by one of those baseball throwing machines. ]
no subject
[Denji's in the zone now, focusing on the little vending machine foyer first—and nearly as fast as Mabel can pop pads out of the machine Denji's ripping off wrappers and sticking them all over the walls around them in a mad mosaic
if Mabel will stick with it, Denji will keep going at least until the foyer walls are completely covered]
no subject
Yeah!!! Now let's get the floor and ceiling too!
no subject
Hey, kid, uh...what's your name? Lemme pick you up so you can do the ceiling.
no subject
I'm Mabel! What about you?
no subject
Denji! Nice to meetcha.
So you here all by yourself?
no subject
Nope! I'm sure my brother's around somewhere, exploring some nerd thing, haha!
[ Narrator voice: he is not. ]
no subject
he continues moving her around the ceiling, occasionally popping her on a shoulder so he can scoop up more pads from the floorpile]
So, you wake up here too? This morning?
no subject
no subject
Yeah, kinda crazy.
But there's good grub and the bed I woke up in was nice, so not complaining.
no subject
Our dorm has hammocks! They're awesome!
no subject
What's a "hammock"??
