THERE AINT NO PARTY LIKE A BLANKET FORT SLUMBER PARTY
Who: OPEN to anyone and everyone!
When: May 22nd (Saturday) after 6pm and the following morning
Where: Class 3-D
What: it's time to heal from all the chaos and murder with a blanket fort slumber party, hell yeah hell yeah
Sometime after school has fully closed for the day and everyone else has gone home, a sign is put up on the door to 3-D. In rounded letters and surrounded by drawings of flowers and a couple cartoon cats, it reads:
BLANKET FORT CONSTRUCTION ZONE
slumber party @ 8pm
all are welcome!
(rule breakers will be sent to JAIL)
... if you show up early, everything might still be in the process of being set up, but by 8pm most of the desks and chairs in the room have either been pushed to the sides or stacked strategically in the middle to form mighty fortress walls. These are, of course, topped with blankets for cover, because it wouldn't be a blanket fort without blankets. Blankets are a limited resource at the school, so it's recommended to bring your own if you don't want to share a fort with someone else. Or maybe just steal a big scrap of fabric from the art room. Close enough, right?
Aside from the obvious arrangements at the centre, there is an un-blanketed pair of desks set aside for snacks. Nene made cookies, and Clamor has put out a bowl of healthy nuts and fruit (as if anyone would actually take those over the cookies). For drinks, there are a few bottles of juice and one pot of (thoroughly filtered) tea and a few cups to use. A small folded sign at the table politely reads "Don't be greedy."
If you are greedy, or if you harass anyone else just trying to have a good time, you risk being sent to...gay baby jailโข. It is, as always, a cardboard box situated in the farthest corner of the room, and guarded diligently by only the most fearsome of dads and buff teenagers. You have been warned.
There is also a second cardboard jail cell on the opposite corner of the room, which is not labelled (yet). The inside is absolutely covered in scratch marks, since it's the same box that was used to catch the cat earlier in the month... but now it's jail 2: jail harder. It is reserved for criminals who cannot be allowed to collaborate during jail time, and you know who you are, please just behave yourselves.
This is meant to be a slumber party, so eventually, an amount of slumber will be expected. Luckily it's the weekend, so everyone is welcome to sleep in for as long as they want... just don't sleep in too late, unless you want to get stuck helping with clean up.
((OOC: It's another mingle!!! Feel free to make your own toplevels and comment around, start some party games, bring some extra snacks, hijack Nene's nerf gun to lay siege to your neighbour's fort... w/e!
This is meant to be something of a break from the usual death and despair of murderschool, so please don't do any actual murders in this log that is literally the lowest bar i can ask of y'all. Put warnings in your threads as needed! General chaos is fine, but characters that cause too much of a disturbance will be manhandled and sent togay baby jailโข. You have been warned... twice!!
ICly the fort construction and party is being arranged by Clamor, Noah, Sidney and Nene, but basically anyone who wants to pop in and help out is welcome to, and CR may have been asked to join/help out in advance. If you need an excuse for your character to come, someone else could've dragged them there to chillโjust ask!
anyway that's all pls have fun, go nuts))

[ This is really, really hard because there's so many cute people here. Ugh!! Being around a lot of cute people is so difficult.
So, Kaede narrows it down by who she knows best so far. Almost immediately, her eyes go towards one person. He does look cuter without the hat... โ]
Um... Saihara-kun.
no subject
Wow, what a surprise!!
[Shouted in that overdramatic way that doesn't sound like sarcasm but is still obviously a lie...]

no subject
...wh!?
[ the actual answer has him startling, and the very next moment he tenses up, glancing over like a deer in headlights. one that's very obviously getting more and more flustered by the second. his voice isn't spared the loss of composure either, it just pitches and strangles ungracefully: ]
A-Akamatsu-san...!?
no subject
Her face turns red as she looks away. ]
Was... Was I not supposed to say that?
[ Really, she should have expected this reaction from Shuichi, but she didn't. ]
no subject
N-No, that's not-- You were... ah, just answering the question... for the game, right?
[ It feels like he's got a wedge in his throat and he can't even breathe around it, much less get it out. So his voice quiets meekly instead. ]
...S-Sorry.
[ What is he even apologizing for? Jury's still out on that one, he's just a mess. ]
no subject
[ Gosh, she's starting to really feel flustered now! ]
I mean, it's true... Not even just because of the game.
[ She wouldn't have said it aloud without the game, but that doesn't take the truth away from her answer either. ]
no subject
Shuichi's entire body freezes as his shoulders draw up and feel tense... like he's bracing himself -- but then, all he gets is that. ]
Huh? Not... because of it?
[ It's not just the game? Then... what is it?
If this were anyone other than Shuichi you could think he's fishing but... no, he's just like that and this is making him hesitate in earnest. The soft-voiced objection finds its way through his lips before he can even really think about it: ]
But... there are plenty of other people, and besides... you're a lot prettier than me, Akamatsu-san.
no subject
[ After all, outside of her skill as a pianist, Kaede is average in everything including her looks. ]
Anyway, I picked you, so you have to accept that!
no subject
[ There he goes again. Twenty seconds after being scolded for apologizing in the first place. ]
It's your answer, so I shouldn't... be arguing with you.
[ But instead what he can do is turn even redder and look completely away... It'll be difficult not to remember this at the worst possible time later on, most probably. ]
no subject
That's the spirit! You have to accept my answer as fact! Use it to help boost your self confidence a little, okay?
no subject
[ No one's opinion can be an objective fact, that's why... it's an opinion and not a law in the first place. But he won't tell her that. ]
But... I'll try. Thank you, Akamatsu-san. And, um... I meant what I said, too.
[ About her being pretty, but they can leave it at that... before he dies of embarrassment. ]
no subject
[ SHES IMPRESSED!!! ]
Did you make his flags go up?
no subject
[ She doesn't see any flags anywhere— ]
And I mean, I guess I wasn't embarrassed... It was just a question.
[ But she is now. ]
no subject
[ Her eyes are bright, full of affirmation of what she says. ]
You know I think girls should be more assertive about their feelings, whenever I play otomes I notice the player character is always more reserve about how they talk to their friends and love interests.
no subject
[ Kaede feels a little encouraged, despite herself. ]
I guess a lot of girls aren't that assertive, huh? It's easier to just say how you feel, if you ask me.
no subject
uhhhh )
"It's fine to look at the menu as long as you do not order off of it," as they say. ( ... ) I believe that, though our roles differ this round, the idiom still applies.
( does it. )
no subject
Right. He'll just be... eye candy, in that case.
[ Yeah. ]
no subject
Do you like him?
no subject
Um... I... I haven't really thought about it.
[ Which is true—Kaede hasn't had much time to really give anything like that any serious thought. ]
