WEEK 6: MINGLE

[dormheads]

week 6: mingle

remaining students: 26

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: 183
☀️ SUMMER: 184
🍁 FALL: 233
❄️ WINTER: 273

It's time. It's here. Dead Hot Girl Summer. Temperatures are heating up around campus, the smoothie shop is the place to be, and it seems like the end of the school year is in sight. Isn't that exciting? All the banners that had their motto shifted over the weekend seem to have reverted back as well. In fact, your adventures might bring you to some new locations where construction has concluded. Take a look around! Don't forget to peer over at Dean's List. Not to mention this is a school campus, which means things are changing all the time - keep an eye out.

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?

Though if you're looking through your phone, it appears that the profiles for Leo Valdez, Tsuyukusa, and Otome have all disappeared. Expulsion is a hell of a drug.

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

ENG 101: Basic Storytelling
DATE 400: The Art of the Pick Up Line
FILM 345: So Bad It's Good - Genius Cringe Movies
CUL 725: Popsicles

In order to combat the weather, it seems like there are quite a few stations set up around campus. There's a bunch of faucets that weren't there before, coupled with incredibly necessary supplies. Go for it, you know you want to. All's fair in love and Dorm Wars. Though it may be just a little concerning when, for very short blips at a time, you might be able to hear a clip of someone's thoughts as they happen.

[ a while after the water gun fight, its mass text time! for everybody except the dorm heads. ]

mcbb@wiwaldi.edu
Communication coupon worked.
Come meet at the usual classroom ASAP.

[ good afternoon fellow students!!! here are ichiro, beau, and mollymauk in the aforementioned classroom. ichiro's got a piece of paper in his hand that he keeps folding and unfolding between his fingers, looking agitated but unharmed, at least! beau’s sitting on a desk a bit away from the other two, going through something on her phone. Molly seems fine - fidgeting with something in his pocket and tail swishing a bit, but normal enough.

there are some concerning things now written on the whiteboard for your viewing pleasure.

ichiro speaks up: ] Here's what we got. We didn't get to talk long, but there's a lot to talk about, so let's hit it.

[txt]

... So it wants us to make an enemy of each other, period.

[Bad? Bad.]

[steelo]

Yeah, for sure. It was pretty insistent about that part.

[ rather be soft than cold. echoes from his thoughts. ]

[headmt]

I suppose. It's continued to be vague on who "them" is supposed to even be though. Just killers? Some other group? I dunno.

[disreguarded]

Seems like it, yeah. He tried to ask it to be friends but I don't think it's interested. [gesturing at molly.]

[ambiography]

...it sounds like it. 'Name or no name', even.

I feel as if we should at least try to make this thing into the villain, but-- I wonder if it would work.

[overlimit]

... It said the heroes or the villains need to disappear.

Are the killers the "villains"? So who are the "heroes"?

[katzepaw]

[Well, hello, he's here. Going right to Molly and Beau.]

. . . You are back.

[headmt]

[Oh, yeah, hi. He waves.]

Sorry-- Should have texted you first thing, yeah. Everything's [He taps his head.] Think it's there?

[disreguarded]

[puts her phone down, finally, and glances up at him.]

Not like we really went anywhere, but yeah. What do you think of all this?

[steelo]

I'm really glad they were there.

[ He probably kept us from throwing hands at nothing. ] ...Thanks, Caleb-san.

[illuminance]

I'm glad no one was hurt.

[ The heroes or the villains need to disappear...? ]

This is... Alarming, but good to know. Probably.

[steelo]

I thought maybe by naming it, that'd make it the enemy, and we could just all fight against it, but we tried and it wasn't having it.

[ tragically our name suggestions were rejected ]

[overlimit]

[frowning at that thought...]

Maybe, but no matter what that thing says, we're not letting anyone disappear.

[alitaba]

[ staring into the middle distance ]

Soooooo it doesn't matter who's side we're on, one team has to lose?

[ nopenopenopenope- ]

[shaft]

I don't even know how that would happen. We're already expelling killers, so how else would we triumph over them?

[disreguarded]

According to No-Name, yeah, but look - I'm not gonna just sit here and let that happen.

I think it'd be better to make that thing our enemy than make enemies amongst ourselves.

[silentscout]

If that's the case, why don't we all just make ourselves be on one team?

[ambiography]

[look i'm going to be tagging for real in other threads but. just know she is fucking hovering, keeping an eye on ichiro now that the three of them are back.]

[steelo]

[ gives her a little smile and a nod of his head! ] 'm okay, Lucretia-san.

[ See? Nothing to worry about. Didn't even hurt us, just creeped us out. ]

[ghoststrums]

So it wanted us to hate Yanagiya-san and the others, and since we haven't, that's why it's making its own villains...?

[goalsides]

[he's going to read all of this over and just..let his eyebrows raise higher and higher. he's not saying anything, but he seems to be thinking this over.]

Pretty intense story. [like. yikes?]

[silentscout]

It sounds like a demanding, malevolent spirit. In those cases, it's always better to not do what they want and just find a way to exorcise them instead.

If it is the idea of 'an unfinished story', making it our enemy might not work. But declaring the ending we do want could work instead.

[selfestheim]

[ ootd after water sports i've started to run myself ragged but i refuse to give up... anyway, he's going up to all of them—ichiro and beau get light arm tugs, while molly gets a nod, but it's clear he's just as concerned for all three. ]

...How are your memories doing? Anything unclear or muddled?

[illuminance]

[ lux claps a couple times to get people's attention. ]

Now that we know the communication coupon can be used in this manner, Lalli and I will be using his for the same means tomorrow morning. I'm leaving the third person to join our group up to him, since it's his coupon.

However, I feel that we should discuss what further questions we should ask it as a group.

... And we will be sure to write ourselves some notes to assist with what happens when we return.
