[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.

To let our guard down, to force us to develop some type of camaraderie before they put us through an exercise.

[ With how fast his reply is, you'd think he had some experience in the matter... ]

But for now, we're under their direction. [ He waves his hand, having said too much for his own liking. ] A bad habit you find irritating?

[It's a little surprising hearing such a cynical set of words coming from someone who looks about the same age as him. Maybe it shouldn't be, considering how Nine's been this whole time, but... it still seemed like an extreme possibility to consider.

He almost wants to say something else, but the moment passes, and they're back to some innocuous questions.]

...Barging into my room without permission. [Also, 'cats sleeping in his bed while piss-drunk' but that was probably a little too specific.]

Um, what would you consider your greatest accomplishment?

[niugen]

All too common. [ ..... ]

Exceeding the expectations of my teachers. [ A perfectly normal, boring answer, but it leaves Nine irritated. He glances at his watch before looking to Natsume once more. ]

Five questions each, ten total, that should be satisfactory.

[notsumereiko]

You were keeping track?

[Blink. Natsume was just going with the flow there, honestly...]

[niugen]

Of course. Why wouldn't I?

[ 'Cause not everyone is basically a computer, Nine. ]

[notsumereiko]

Well... I thought people usually just went until they hit a good stopping point. Were we supposed to count?

[How do icebreakers like these work.......]

[niugen]

I don't think so. [ But he still did. ]

We did better than the majority of other pairs here. [ Indicates the room where people have gotten terribly distracted, probably points at Sensei who's likely yelling or just generally being Sensei. You get the picture, Natsume. ]
