It's time for another FAMILY MEETING!!

[carpevinum]

[There's a sign posted on 3-C on the 27th the future is now indicating that it's that time of month! That's right, it's time for the family meeting!

Lucifer is in charge this time and he is holding a whip, so please behave yourselves or you might get a warning crack near your head. Or don't behave yourselves. He's not your dad. He will, however, try his hardest to keep you all on track.

As Lucifer is also one of the Team Moms Dads, he's also made everybody lunch as he is wont to do. The rather fancy-looking food is set up on a couple of desks at the front of the classroom to peruse at your leisure. There are cookies and muffins as well, but please try to eat a real lunch instead of subsisting off of sweets entirely.

On the whiteboard, Lucifer has written the following topics & talking points that he'd like to discuss with everybody, and has requested that you all raise your hands so that this can be done in an orderly fashion... Good luck, Luci.

• Who is missing? Who is confirmed deceased?
• The gladiatorial battle — is it possible that those who died previously may come back to inflict further harm? Any guesses?
• What the Hell was going on last weekend?
• The void in the auditorium is infinite
• Results of last month's investigations that we agreed on doing
• The imps plaguing the school have been removed (thank you to Clamor for his assistance)
• Have we discovered anything new?

Last but not least, the final bullet is one hundred percent something that Lucifer clearly wants to do, and it reads simply:

• Instating a chore chart

So that's... fun.]

Let's try to keep this more orderly than the last one, shall we?

[And yes, the cardboard baby jail is set up in the back of the classroom! Naughty children go to cardboard baby jail. Naughtier children get a whip cracked at them. Have fun, everyone!]



[[OOC: The usual rules of the family meeting posts apply, which means threadjacking/general mingling is allowed and encouraged! Please remember to only share information your character discovered ICly to avoid metagaming. Also no Lucifer will not actually cause physical harm to anyone's characters with the whip unless player permission is granted, I'm not as psychotic as he is, don't worry about it.]]

She sounds like a wonderful friend to have. I hope you two get to enjoy your time together for many years to come.

[ Kiyotaka’s been made to suffer enough, Shinobu thinks. She doesn’t want him to have to lose anyone else. Not in a school like this. ]

Where was it you last saw Chihiro-san? Do you remember where you saw the other girls before they disappeared, too?

[moraloutrage]

I... I hope so too. With all of my heart.

[He says that quietly and almost distantly. Because at this point, he can't help but imagine the worst case scenarios.]

Well, I last saw her several days ago, when we were saying good night in the hallways before going to sleep. I saw her go back to her homeroom, and I thought all as well. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, nor was anything strange the last time I saw Kirigiri-kun either. In all of these cases, I simply parted from them normally at the end of a day... and then, I- I could not find them afterwards.

[insecution]

[ So much can happen in a day, let alone several. Is Chihiro okay? Is she in danger? Dead, even? Shinobu’s mind reels with the possibilities, none of them good. ]

It doesn’t seem as though the three of them had very much in common. That makes it difficult to determine where we should begin our investigation.

[ She pauses, neither a smile nor a contemplative frown on her lips. ]

But we will find Chihiro-san; of that, Kiyotaka-kun, I assure you.

[moraloutrage]

Indeed. I can try checking by Fujisaki-kun's homeroom and locker, and I shall see if any answers can be yielded.

[He manages to give her a weak smile.]

Thank you for your assistance, Kochou-kun. [As worrying as things are, he appreciates all the help he can get.]

[insecution]

You needn’t thank me. I’m happy to help however I am able.

[ If she can, anyway. She returns his smile, but it’s a thin, brittle veneer made to hide any fear that they might already be too late. ]

I shall look into the other two. Should you find a lead, do let me know.

[moraloutrage]

[He's trying his best to hold onto whatever hope he can, for now. Maybe there's something... some kind of clue! And he's not at this alone. Shinobu's smile is still enough to bring him some comfort.]

That sounds like a good course of action. Let us investigate and keep each other updated!

[With that... off he goes!]
