Dutiful Night . ( O p e n )

Who: Gawain & maybe some Insta Mashpotatoes .
When: 29th-Spring Break .
What: An Assortment of moments wherein you can find the Knight about the School.

[ Incidentally as the days roll over he is alert and awake to all of it, since it would seem he retains his lack of need to sleep as a servant in this place. This was arguably a good thing, in a lot of ways. Every night he can be found outside of 2-A, where you will find him silently standing there at its door. Guarding it with resolve and duty in mind to. All the while Ritsuka sleeps, and whomever else feels comfortable with the idea of him standing there at guard. He is undeterred by anyone or anything that passes by. Except perhaps the cat’s that seem to often stare at him every so often. They are unlike the young pup that talks, and he feels that they are potentially a part of this mystified place in and of itself. Yet, he does not question it. It is not his place to question things, so he does not.

When it is 12 Midnight into the wee hours of 6 am. He becomes on high alert outside the door of 2-A, if only because during these hours the plain sense of nothingness is bestowed to him. Gawain would almost acquit the feeling of it, to something of which recently felt and laid out on his mind. Emptiness, cast out by three command seals to the far side of the moon. Yes, the sense of the empty void is a peculiar reminder of a memory that lingers on within him, and often he thinks about it as he stands there seemingly undeterred or affected by it.. If perhaps you want to speak to him for whatever draws your mind to, he will greet you with a smile and bow. Then reel out his device where he will write or text you for that matter.

Otherwise, you may catch him patrolling the halls pausing every so often at the Nurses office. As if he were waiting for someone to appear. A long hard face upon him, and potentially of the only moments he allows a show of dismay. When he is rather comely and expressive in smile toward others otherwise.

On one, or maybe two - perhaps more occasions. The male could be caught curiously attempting to eat his Instant Mash Potatoes from the bag. Initially he was bewildered by the item itself and rather whimsical with excitement. Opens the bag gently, and then his mouth to oh so tenderly dump its flakes there inside. They immediately absorb into the wetness there - and Gawain awkwardly stares off into the distance potentially aware of his mistake but also intrigued. So maybe he actually is not aware of his mistake, and merely attempts to swallow the Mash Potatoes flakes hard. When and if he is caught, he thusly asks - ]

Are you perhaps interested in these Mash Potatoes Flakes as well?

[ Every day at 3pm, he hosts Tea Time because if there is not 3pm tea time. He will be a very depressed and sad English Knight. He invites everyone & anyone to join him, and exchange on a youthful bit with him alone or along side others. As it is, when he wants to hear most about what is going on with everyone and their lives. One will find him most awkwardly hospitable if not childish in how he attempts to talk to you like he is your best friend. Currently, 3pm tea time is within the Cooking room at a small table using the nasty cheap Lipton style tea bags that they all probably only a month total of left.

That said,

Have a crush? Want to talk about life? Miss school? Wanna go home but cant? Think the Cat is weird? Think Monty Crispy Dantes a little too funky? Spill the tea dears, it’s 3pm tea time and Gawain is here to gossip. ]

We'll be meeting up again tomorrow, around lunch time. We've got plenty of kits if you'd like to give it a shot.

Yeah... I really hope things get easier when everyone comes back. But until then, we'll just have to make our own entertainment, I suppose... and it could be fun. Maybe... maybe she wants to feel capable too, so she doesn't feel so afraid.

[ Which is a silent plea to humor Stephanie, for her sake? ]

[ Oh no, a genuine compliment! She blushes with a shy smile and kicks her feet back and forth slightly. ] Well... I just thought about how I'd feel.

[ How she does feel. But she's got to be strong. Nene has faced fox spirits with giant scissors and the ability to erase your presence from the world, faced a gilded cage that bent reality to it's whim, faced her own-- ... she is stronger than this. She won't cry. No one will know how scared she truly is, not with that unwavering smile she wears above all else. ]

It's a lot to deal with. So I don't think humoring her is a bad thing. But yeah, when school starts up, if we're still stuck here I think I'm going to try to get more involved with home economics...

[ Her?

Sword fighting?

................................ was that even allowed....

Needless to say, the suggestion comes as a bit of a shock. With all her dreams of a fairy tale romance, and with Hanako-kun always coming to her rescue- except for the time where she had to save herself from his good intentions- she had never considered it. ]


I've... never thought about it. I don't know the first thing about fighting at all...
