Awaken...

[ Everything still feels a bit hazy when you pull yourself out of bed this morning. Bed... not all of you may remember going to bed. It may take several long minutes for that feeling to die down. Several things may seem immediately wrong. But even if the basics are familiar-- there's a sort of uneasy feeling of wrongness that lingers as you come to. That feeling will probably never go away entirely.

Attached to your wrist is a small plastic wristband, almost like a watch, but without the numbers. Try as you might, it won't come off. For those of you who are familiar, it is designed with an uncanny familiarity to a Fitbit.

And then there's your current abode-- the room is fully furnished for one person-- and you are in fact alone, which may be a relief... or a great concern. The basics are all there: desk, lamp, bed, closet...

As the little things go though, it's almost completely bare of any personal flare. No personal effects at all...

With one exception.

On the desk sits a black tablet. And almost immediately after you find it, the thing starts going off one rapid fire 'ding' after another. Check it out and you will find several messages have popped up on the screen for you to scan through. The source and the content is... well. As questionable as everything else this morning I'd say. ]

meguman22922: mornin'! hope you slept well.
meguman22922: orientation will be held in the main classroom in an hour. that's in the school building on the 1st floor
meguman22922: but first you should introduce yourself. the others should be waking up about now too.
meguman22922: you're in the dorms now, so dont forget to check the maps
meguman22922: the tablet can help you with that. anything else, we'll get to at orientation. so! see you in an hour! :D
 


[ It would seem that you have much to investigate. Perhaps discussing it with these "others" may be the most beneficial way to proceed for now. At the very least there is a promise of answers in the near future. Whether or not they'll be to your liking though... highly doubtful at this stage, really. But who knows! Going back to school (or to school for your first time) can't be so bad, right? ]

Thank you. He..... means a lot to me.

[Understatement of the year.]

Is.... Is there anything I could do in return?

[personal profile] yourfuture 2018-08-13 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
I mean he did all kinds of major supernatural crime stuff, I think there's a movie about him? He was cool.

[When someone doesn't think of something, it falls to Maya Fey to point out the obvious!]

..."Ass"?

[She hadn't considered this fact... what with the whole being kidnapped deal. But since she's peering over his shoulder to see the tablet, it's a good time to let out a quick chuckle.]

Oh! Heh, heh. I get it.

It's nice to meet you.

It isn't a tattoo, it's an LED.

I know some stuff, I'm just pissed to be back somewhere like this shithole again, if it's anything like the last one.
donotlick: (LvmrbZL)

[personal profile] donotlick 2018-08-13 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Guess they're sticking to this weird-ass school theme, so an orientation makes sense.

[ Hank clearly knows what it is. ]

You ever even been to one of these?

[ connor catalogs the pronunciation of his name. he will never pronounce it wrong. ]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Viral.

[personal profile] donotlick 2018-08-13 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, okay.

[ Blinks. ]

Thanks for clarifying cause I never would've guessed. Osomatsu, huh? Kind of a mouthful, no offense.

[ But he'll be nice... ]

Name's Hank Anderson. You can probably guess which is which.
donotlick: (kqJukce)

[personal profile] donotlick 2018-08-13 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Well, guess we gotta wait around in the meantime.

[ Pause..... ]

You got a name?

[ howdy neighbor!! the door would almost hit him in the face, but he's an android, he's quicker than that. ]

I think it's normal for humans to be upset after experiencing an emotional shock.

Offline like... airplane mode?

[ Hank releases a low whistle. ]

Damn. What good are you then?
blackcatintheruemorgue: (Um. Okay.)

[personal profile] blackcatintheruemorgue 2018-08-13 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose I can relate to the 'crime stuff'. Although I try to keep my mystery stories more grounded in reality.

[Or at least set in the far future.]

[ ...oh! ]

[ Oso sheepishly rubs the back of his head. ]

Ehh, I know, it's fine, it's fine... You just kinda spooked me is all!

Now uh, have you seen my brothers? They all look like me. All five of them!

[ He's gonna ask this question a lot, isn't he? ]

"Again," huh? How the fuck did something like this happen before? I sure as fuck didn't hear about it.

[ ˅ software instability ]

I apologize, Lieutenant. I can still sample and handle evidence and scan my environment, but my references are impaired like this.

Don't worry, you can go after me.

I just wanted to ask... if you remember anything from before waking up here? [It's weird, but hang on, she's trying to go somewhere with this.]
ososoi: when you got issues (who needs a stable job)

[personal profile] ososoi 2018-08-13 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Did they even think that through?! That's hilarious! [ yep, he's laughing. damnit oso it's not that funny. ]

We should call this place 'Ass University'!

It was like two weeks, and I'm pretty sure we're in another dimension or something? I don't know, it's stupid and the people in charge don't fucking like talking about it.
donotlick: (r0WoA4P)

[personal profile] donotlick 2018-08-13 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ :') sorry Connor. ]

Gotcha. [ Hank nods, like it ain't no than. ] No access to the DPD database, no Cyberlife...

You can still read people's stress levels and that kind thing though, right? Puts us at a disadvantage, but I guess it could be worse.

That's correct.
