[Entrance Exam] Week One

[lockdownmods]

It would seem that it will be... some time before you're released. Two weeks. That may sound like forever, in this situation. But you aren't left with nothing to do. The Administrator has been kind enough to update the Tasks application on your tablet. There are also now several different tasks that you can accept. Who knows... you might get something good out of it. It's worth checking out at least. There are also several other new applications you can toy with, too.

And you won't go hungry. The staff is here to prepare meals three times a day. Breakfast is served from 6AM-8AM, lunch from 11PM-1PM, and dinner from 5PM-7PM. You'd best make sure you're in the cafeteria in time for those meals, because they won't be waiting around all day for you. They have lives, too. Unfortunately, you won't really be able to ask them about any of that. The serving area is separated by a glass wall, through which they serve you. Even if you try asking-- it would seem they have been told not to answer.

The rest... well. You may just have to see for yourself. At least you're not alone.

No, see, I did not explain the joke, because he would understand exactly what I was getting at.

This is what they call "an inside joke." And we all know explaining a joke is the best way to ruin it.

[notsumereiko]

No...? Who are they?

[enlighten him, jake.]

[tiehard]

[he's just

come to accept his lot in life. at introducing people to. the best things]

... You are...

[and then he's singing. i'm sorry Natsume]

my fire.

[covertizer]

[ *Akira Kurusu will remember this. ]

[robomin]

[That... smile is strange on him. Her eyes narrow a bit, shifting. She's never... really talked about her feelings with anyone in this manner.]

...do you really... believe that?

[starswink]

Worlds? I-I don't know what you mean... this is such a shock. I hope my descendants will be okay.

[Shut up Yoosung, you don't have any descendants.]

[coagmentatio]

[ With a quiet hum, he folds his arms behind his head - it's also to help cool himself off. He hates. This temperature a lot. He's only just managing to keep that fact hidden by regularly washing his face off... ]

... The pool?

[ I MEAN... ]

[robomin]

[Viv, huh? Well. That's fine.]

...we can.

[...]

Are you concerned about your age? I assure you, you won't be judged any more harshly than the others.

[tiehard]

[SHOULDN'T YOU BE IN BED]

[robomin]

Not at all. She will... participate when she's well enough to. We are not... "getting rid"... of anyone.

[tiehard]

[jake tosses and turns and mumbles something about candy thieves in his sleep. it's fine.]

[niugen]

I know what an inside joke is. [ God this is ridiculous where is Twelve he's not suited for this. Subject change is go! ]

It doesn't matter, anyway. What's a detective doing wasting time on pranks like this and not finding out how to get out of here?

[tiehard]

A fair callout.

[Jake staples one more to the bulletin board]

But I'm not sure where we even are. I'm from Brooklyn, there's someone from Oregon, Japan... And a bunch of places I've never heard of.

[he's still stapling them, i'm sorry nine]

People are wizards, and there are talking animals. Wherever our escape is, we've got to find it in here.

And in the meantime? A bunch of you need to ch-ch-chill out, you know what I'm saying? Part of my job is making sure everyone else is calm.

[9laborsoflove]

I'm unsure. But alternate worlds makes the most sense, especially if anyone hails from somewhere after 2189.

[ ...Listen, how many timelines do you think have giant birds in them. ]

[yourfuture]

I believe you exactly as much as I believe parents who say little Janey's hamster went out to the farm while they were taking care of him.

[robomin]

[There are two primary areas to her desk. The first is the computer and the second is the piles of file folders and papers scattered around. Obviously the computer won't help you with your task but-- well... you might feel like taking a peak while she's preoccupied...]

[notsumetakashi]

Pah! [ Ordinarily he'd probably try to squeeze through the crack and probably get his head stuck, but. But. Now he's in Natsume's stupid twig body (what is he supposed to do with this thing anyway? Getting rid of his charmingly round body for this, how is he supposed to get someone to feed him this way!!). He has feet, hands, and thumbs. Also, a bigger torso.

So he jams himself into the crack and forcibly tries to pass by Natsume with about as much strength as his twiggy arms can handle. Twig. ] How am I supposed to stay there when you're over here, huh? Huh?! I can't leave my snack alone in a place like this!

[ To emphasize something that makes sense only to him, he slaps the door twice. Take that too!! ]

[notsumereiko]

[uh

what is going on and why is a strange man singing at him]

Um... Peralta-san?

[notsumetakashi]

[ peralta you're amazing ]

[tiehard]

My one... desiiiiiiiire.

[HE'S INTO IT NOW]

Belieeve when Iiiiiiiiii saaaaaay.....


I want it thaaaaat waaay!

[robomin]

[A large portion of the stuff on the floor is piled against the back wall, under some photographs. No... photographs doesn't quite describe them. They appear to be portraits. They're fairly large so they might be worth taking a peak at!]

[coagmentatio]

...

[ what the fuck ]

I'm pretty sure my stance will remain the same in that I'm not your dear anything, but what the hell is a falcon?

[starswink]

I'm from 2016...

[He frowns, thinking about this. But, the giant bird said alternate worlds, right? He'll try and latch on to that. Really, he should just accept the judgment of a giant bird about the state of existence of giant birds, and not worry about it.]

... Man, this is so weird. Alternate universes... but I guess I feel better knowing that there's a chance for humanity. Um, I'm studying to be a vet, so I'll do my best to treat any diseased birds I see!

[Maybe thinking of it as being a hero of diverting the apocalypse will give him some motivation to study, even! Though it will probably die before he gets out of here. There wasn't even any good reading material in the library. He got bored enough to check with the lack of internet.]

[robomin]

[Robotics and technology primarily! Coding, operation... lots of complicated things.

Although there are also... a few books on Anthropology and Psychology. Well... for someone as awkward as her, maybe she just wanted to read up on humans. She doesn't seem so good at them.]

[notsumereiko]

Shhh! Keep it down, Sensei! We're going to wake-- [wait sensei what are you doing] Waaaaah! Don't come in!

[Oh shit, oh shit, he has to keep it down or else he's going to wake his weird roommate. Why is this his life like this?? But obviously the logical response is to press his weight against the door to keep Sensei from squeezing through, right? He'll also move a hand to try and cover the youkai's mouth because he really can't let him keep screaming like this.]

Just go back to your room, Sensei! I'm fine on my own right now!
