WEEK 8

[lockdownmods]

[When you wake up, there's a text message in all of your inboxes, warning about how stressful exams week can be. The email comes replete with names of study sessions, tutoring hours, and free pizza on other parts of the campus. And it encourages you to check online for the exam schedule based on your class and section number.

There's also a note that there will be weekly stress puppy pop ups to help you relax? So that's nice and thoughtful! But ultimately, at Fayflower, they just want to make sure everyone has what they need to do well on their exams.

What a nice email.

But things have obviously deteriorated around you, with the wall looking visibly... damaged? If you get close, it's extremely easy to lose track of yourself... and you might come away with a few bruises you didn't know you got. Who knows. Maybe Terra?

Happy final week.]

EVENT

[lockdownmods]

[early in the morning, outside the main building, there is the set up for... paintball? There are tons of paintball guns-- enough to make it apparent this was planned with 26 people in mind and. Not a few. But to go with those guns, there's TONS of paintballs in all sorts of color! How nice! You can even pick teams!!

It's fun in the morning, all the way through lunch. Hm. Not bad?

However, by now it's afternoon. Though the week as a whole has passed without much incident even with the prospect of the final exam looming over the horizon, something... strange is happening. You started from 26 and are now left with 9, there were an excessive amount of paintball guns and paintballs. And in a large campus like this, that means there's an awful lot of space around, doesn't it?

So it may take a while to notice, but it quickly becomes apparent that if you're on the first floor of the main building, there is a dark haze of acrid smoke the closer you get to the corridors closest to the washrooms, the gym and the classroom. As pungent as the smoke smells, it's not on the level of "everything is on fire, including yourself" but it never hurts to take a look, right?]

[buriedearth]

[ What in the hell is going on here? There goes that gym work out session it looks like--or maybe it'll still be possible. Either way, he'll be heading down those corridors on the way to the gym, trying to see what's going on. ]

[whatsmytalentagain]

[Rantaro had noticed this too... He wasn't planning to put off his laundry... But this seems important.

Hope you don't mind company, Terra. Rantaro's hastening his pace to join you.]

[lockdownmods]

It's pretty thick with smoke in the gym! And in the hallways? Hm.

[whatsmytalentagain]

Ugh...

[Rantaro covers his mouth as he follows Terra... Really should have gotten a face mask or something, but he doesn't want to leave Terra on his own.]

Classroom

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[Well... that's troubling. After going to the nurses' office to get a medical mask to wear, Poe cautiously ventures into the room to investigate. What's the first thing visible?]

[lockdownmods]

Smoke.

[blackcatintheruemorgue]

[..... Wonderful. Is the smoke filling the entire room or is it clear where it's coming from? He'd really rather not have to venture in blindly... but he's not that lucky, is he?]

[lockdownmods]

By now? It's filling the whole room.

[swordsinternally]

[ While Terra and Rantaro might be in the gym, let's try checking the washrooms-- he's putting his sleeve near his mouth so that the smoke doesn't go into his mouth, but this is pretty concerning...

Is there more coming more from the men's washroom or the women's? Or just both?? ]

[lockdownmods]

Way more coming from the men's washroom.

[swordsinternally]

[ Alright, then let's go into the men's washroom! Anything to see here at a first glance? ]

[lockdownmods]

Well, right at the entrance are three smoke grenades out in the hall. The door's been propped open with a door stopper.

Inside? 7 more smoke grenades.

deadland chat ping! (closed to the dead)

[ososoi]

[ After being mysteriously absent for most of Thursday, Osomatsu leaves the nurse's office very late at night, borderline midnight. ]

[ The area where his left eye used to be is all bandaged up again. Sorta; it's not as heavily bandaged up as when he originally lost the eye. Oddly enough, Oso himself, despite looking exhausted from the lingering effects of the anesthetic and painkillers, seems to be in a slightly better mood. As much as he can be. On second thought, it's hard to tell what mood he's in. ]

[ He gets hit with a dizzy spell and trips over his own feet, falling over. ]

Agh-- damnit!

[ He gets back up to his knees, holding his head with one hand, and starts talking to himself. ]

...Don't worry, Osomatsu. You'll be back to working condition in no time.

[ But right now, his head hurts. Blame the side effects of the anesthetic. ]

[ ...Now as for why he's up in the first place. ]

[ He staggers to the computer lab again. Once he finally gets there, he sits at the computer, starts it up and waits for a new notification. ]

[lockdownmods]

[DING. You have (1) new chat from anchor.]

[ososoi]

[ Time to open up that chat then! ]

[lovedanime]

I hope you're having a good night, everyone! We'll probably have to close up shop pretty soon, so this could be the last time before the "final exam"... We're all cheeri
Oh, there you are! Hello!

[ososoi]

this is osomatsu from the side of the living!

now who am i talking to?

[lockdownmods]

[DING. You've got (1) new chat from Luxbourne.]

[ososoi]

[ ...? ]

[ Osomatsu opens up the chat. ]

[throwabookatit]

Is this still Osomatsu?
Mitarai was saying some nonsense and I thought you'd like to talk to a friendly face. Font face at least.

It's Rebecca.

[lockdownmods]

[DING. You have (1) new chat from 2DGorillaz.]

[ososoi]

[ ...Welp. That makes it obvious who's calling. ]

[ ... ]

...Tch.

[ It's mostly only because Osomatsu might not be able to call the dead for a while after this, so... ]

[ He reluctantly opens the chat. ]

[12d3]

Hello.

Maya told me that I should probably talk to you. I didn't want to because I know you're upset with me :( But I think it'd be for the best if I did.

How are you? :)
