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 jail™. 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 jail™. 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 chill—just ask!
anyway that's all pls have fun, go nuts))

[ Arthur looks up at him, an eyebrow quirked but stoic as ever. He doesn't mention what happens when you look through it, because he's still pretty convinced this place has him drugged and he'll sound crazy.
Arthur keeps a pretty tight grip on the rock, but extends his arm and holds it out. ]
You know anything about it?
no subject
( amami's taking a good look at it — not reaching out to grab it or anything, but maybe leaning in to get an idea of the texture and... it kind of looks like every rock he's seen, to be honest. )
Is something strange about it? Besides the fact that you have something from outside, I mean.
( he knows what his first thought would be based on the shape, sure, but he's not gonna be the one to make himself sound crazy before at least seeing what this guy has to say about it first. )
no subject
[ Whether it was or not is another matter entirely. If he hadn't looked through it, he would still be prattling around here in a daze like nothing was wrong. ]
'Course, that could be this place tryin to drive me crazy.
no subject
( of this place trying to drive them crazy, that is. to be frank, amami doesn't even know what to make of his own sense of self at this point, with the impossibly overlapping (and in his case, missing) memories, but... all they can really do is take their present experiences in stride. those are the only certainty right now, so... given a moment, he offers a smile and holds out his hand. )
Do you mind if I take a look? Just for a second.
no subject
[ Kid probably has a better idea of what the hell is up with this thing. Or what the hell it is. Arthur sort of unceremoniously plunks it into his hand. ]
no subject
( he perks up at the plunk — listen, amami's arrival treat was fingernails, but this? this is not half as gross.
so, rock in hand, he'll do just what the man mentioned: he'll lift it up and he'll look through the hole. thing is? even when he does that, he was only really half-expecting something to happen. the fact that the school he sees through it actually changes, darkens... )
Oh...!
( he looks pretty visibly startled. dropping the rock down from his eye, he'll look at it in his palm with a puzzled expression. let a second or two pass though, and he holds it back out for arthur to take, eyes looking clear and bright with interest. )
Where did you say you got this?
no subject
Even if Arthur doesn't make a move, his eyes shoot wide open in recognition when Amami drops it. Shit. He'd looked through the damn thing at least five or six times to make sure he wasn't crazy, and even then, he's still a little convinced he is. ]
Shit. Guess I'm not the only one then.
[ He takes the rock back a second, looking at it for any sign of change or... well. Anything. He's got an eye for detail. ]
In my boots. Feels like someone left em there on purpose.
no subject
On purpose, huh? I mean, it's kind of sketchy, but...
( how to express it... he's already figured that there's more to this place than there appears, so — )
With this place being how it is, I feel like something like this is more helpful than anything else.
no subject
[ Helpful? Not that Arthur doesn't think it couldn't be something useful, keeping in mind that he hasn't been in the courtyard yet, but he's learning the ropes and wants a damn way out of here. ]
How you reckon?
no subject
( not quite a detailed enough description to put two and two together, but in any case, the question is simple enough. )
I mean, clearly this place isn't normal. If the way it looks through that is different from how it looks to us now, then the things you can see through it could give us some clues to how we can get out of here. It's the same with the "other" side of this school — when blood touches the ground.
( he says like it's blood-realm is the most obvious thing in the world. )
