Awakening
Who: Shin Tsukimi and Anyone
When: July 2nd
What: Opening Post!
Warnings: None as yet.
Shin’s arrival to Yogen is heralded by a slam as he sharply closes his locker and dizzily leans against it while two sets of memories jostle each other. He gathers himself enough to glance around, grab his jacket, and lock it, mind furiously racing as he puts it on and tries to process how he is here. The raw relief flooding through him is turning sour at the immediate possibilities that come to mind.
A: School Life (Day, Misc)
Shin… keeps going to classes he half-remembers, eyeing any non-human-looking students he sees. He feels exposed (and also mundanely chilly) without his scarf and beanie, and his hands keep drifting to the empty space of either. When classes end he returns to his locker, puts them on and pockets the items inside, before trying to leave through the front doors and finding he… can’t. Ah. So that’s how it is. You can catch him in such states as staring at the School Rules with an unreadable expression, at one of the vending machines with more of a debating one, or in one of the classrooms sitting with his elbows on a desk and his hands tugging his beanie down over his head.
B: Washing Day (Evening)
So it turns out one of the side effects of dumping a bag of dirt out inside a locker is that everything in that locker... becomes covered in dirt. So if you go into one of the bathrooms after 6PM you may see the strange sight of someone in a dirt-dusted purple jacket not-so-gently washing their clothes in one of the sinks with half his face buried into the similarly adorned scarf around his neck, because as furtive as he’s been about waiting for one to be empty it’s just a bathroom and people can just walk in. Ask him how his day is going.
C: Safety In Numbers (Night)
At this point you may see Shin file quietly into whichever room seems to have the most people in it and sit down in a corner or seat. Somewhere he has a good view of the room; if you catch him looking at you he’ll give you a polite smile and glance away, fiddling with his scarf. He’s exhausted, and his head will occasionally dip and jolt back upright as his body tries to collect the day’s debt.
Believe it or not this is him starting to try out that ‘trust’ thing again… or maybe it’s just there’s no dorm rooms he can lock. Baby steps.

no subject
[Actually no from what he remembers, he can believe it.]
Not sure how salvageable it is, but.
[But he goes in and starts fishing out what's in there anyway, quickly stuffing things in his pockets and pulling out his now-dirtied clothes and lifting them on top of the lockers with some effort because he is like, the ninth shortest person here.]
Are you sure? I can do that...
[He's going to need the broom to get the stuff out of his locker as well.]
no subject
[ Nanami hands the other over the broom, so she can bring over the garbage and place it closer for them to dump the dirt into. ]
no subject
[He takes the broom and gets to work. The angle is awkward, and by the time she's returned with the garbage he's panting and a little dizzy, leaning the broom so that he can lean against the neighbouring locker and catch his breath while trying not to look like he's catching his breath. It's a bit of a doomed endeavor. It's distracting from the sheer confusion of the situation at least.]
Sorry, I don't think I know your name. [She's just helping him out of the blue. He's used to pushing down the part of him suspicious of others' kindness (most of the time) and while suddenly somehow coming back to life is stressful he hasn't learnt about the murders yet. She's only being nice.]
