dorm fundraiser log

Just for the weekend, the classrooms 3-A and 3-B have been transformed into a host club and a maid cafe, respectively. The students are free to come and go as they please, as well as bring their parents, siblings and whoever else to come help raise funds for the dorms. The promotional poster hangs on the wall between the classrooms, its' artist unknown and left uncredited.

CLASSROOM 3-A

Aka the temporary home of a maid cafe. Decorated mostly in golds and blues, just for today, the students can indulge the illusion of being a Master and having some semblance of control in their lives.

The cafe serves coffee, tea, placebo love potions that taste like strawberry soda, omurice donated by the cooking club with an option to request a message written in ketchup, and a variety of sweets, including baked goods prepared by the transfer students. Some of our cute maids include Kaede, Nene, Natsume, Noah, and, for a very brief time, Rika — though she quickly leaves to tend to the love spell booth. A little far off from that happens to be the kissing booth, ran by Subaru and Komaeda, as well as the charm-selling booth ran by Natsume. Any treats the students offered up for sale will be displayed on a makeshift menu written down on the chalkboard, with slightly-exaggerated prices, because this is a fundraiser and we can't have people skimp out.

CLASSROOM 3-B

Next up, the host club, with Lucifer, Sara, Hinata, Komaeda, Hajun, Gundham and Subaru working in shifts to appease the picky tastes of any students who feel like becoming a refined Ojou-sama.

Just like the Maid cafe, the Host club offers a variety of foods donated by the students, with an additional option to order an alcohol-less champagne, which is really just bubbly soda served in a champagne glass. But, you know, for the realism... A bit further into the classroom, you'll find Gundham's cartomancy booth, as well as Shuichi's lost & found booth. You're free to request as many hosts as you want for the occasion, and make them drink as much of the bubbly soda as you wish, all for a price, of course — and if someone's stomach starts to hurt, well... that's why they take turns!

HALLWAY

The festivities take part long before you enter either classroom, however...

Outside, you can find little Turing, who's all dressed up and eager to help and provide information about the boths, as well as our lovely Elizabeth, who, on top of making snow cones with her very fearsome persona, is offering quick-and-easy introductions for each maid and host, to make your choice that much simpler! Simply name whoever you're interested in, and you'll get to hear a witty line about them:

Nene

"A cute girl with a smile that's sure to heal your heart! The Sheep Among The Wolves, Nene Yashiro!"

Kaede

"There's no one better for a motherly, guiding touch! Our Lady of Passion, Kaede Akamatsu!"

Natsume

"Boys in skirts is certainly a bold choice for the year we're in, but if you can make it work... The Double-Crossing Crossdresser, Natsume Sakasaki!"

Noah

"Young but wise in the ways of love, this quiet boy offers an experience like no other! The Epitome of a Youthful Spring, Noah Ebalon!"

Lucifer

"Get lucky and you might just see his morning star rise! The Virtue of Patience, Lucifer!"

Sara

"She's serious and seriously not playing! The Hands-On Detective, Sara Chidouin!"

Komaeda

"The skin of a killer glitters with the light of hope! Despair's Friendly Foe, Nagito Komaeda!"

Hinata

"Even most normal-looking boys have something to offer! The Stand-Out Everyman, Hinata Hajime!"

Hajun

"You can't trust a man with looks this good, can you? The Octopus Trap of the Heart, Hajun Yeon!"

Gundham

"He's a friend to all things, living or dead! Yogen's Catastroprince of Ice, Gundham Tanaka!"

Subaru

"If you're feeling a little lonely tonight, why not make a wish on the first star you see? The Sparkling Knight of the Night Sky, Subaru Akehoshi!"

Well? Have you decided yet?

[contrarily]

entrance.

( so... she's standing in front of 3-A in her maid attire, sans a new addition of gloves that cover the entirety of her arms, for kinda-died-yesterday reasons. she seems a little zoned out, staring off into space, but for about an hour since the fundraiser start, she will be greeting everyone who chooses to enter with a sweet: )

Welcome home, Master! ( it's obviously fake, but she puts on a cheerful smile, regardless. this is the best time to approach her with any concerns, questions or contributions, whenever she's not distracted taking selfies on her newly re-acquired phone, or looking past you like she's just seen a ghost. otherwise, after said hour, she retreats inside of 3-A to set up her booth. )

love spell booth.

( so, thanks to amami finding a book of love spells, she'll be sitting at the booth and offering to cast them for anyone who's willing to pay a prince. the ingredients are acquired through amami's hard work hustling the occult club, and the variety of spells is as follows:

1. a target spell to make your person of choice fall in love with you! (this requires player permission if it's a pc, and will last as long as they wish it to.)
2. a general spell for better luck in love, for the broken-hearted! (this is just a Blessing spell, nothing specific, and is considerably cheaper.)
3. a mystery spell, said to attract not only love, but also good looks and fortune! (this is a Prank spell that makes you blindly in love with the first person you touch/interact with after having it cast on you, just for hilarity. lasts about an hour, or however long you want tbh.)
4. secret menu spell that's only available when amami and ishimaru aren't around. this has something to do with fertility and erotic days... are you sure... ?

aside from all that, they also offer the placebo love potion. if she's asked if it works, she'll assure them that yes, it absolutely does, but in reality, it just tastes like strawberry soda and emits little, magical hearts, nothing beyond that.

she'll be at this booth for most of the fundraiser, and she'll also be looking for her good pal, jeffrey bezos, who supposedly stepped down as the amazon ceo just to attend the yogen fundraiser. who would've thought? feel free to come chat her up while she's brewing the Love Soup, or ask for advice, give her hot goss, or request a spell, though transfer students will need to trade something in, if they don't have real life yen on them. merit points are fine. )

various.

( aside from these two spots, she'll be all over the place when not at the booth, checking up on everything, since this project is kind of... her child... sometimes, you'll see her out with elizabeth, making snowcones, sometimes, she'll be at the host club, chasing people to work, and sometimes, she'll be walking to the kitchen and back to bring in more sweets. she'll also help out the other maids and hosts with their clothes and make-up, if necessary.

she won't be doing much actual maid-work, because, you know, broken ribs, but feel free to request her, anyway, if you'd like. if it pays well enough... or if she likes you enough... she'll take the time to come entertain it for a bit, before poofing again. )

make up make up

[starrypoint]

[fun fact is that subaru likes being spoiled, so he likes people doing his make-up for him!!!! he can do it himself but it's nice to be loved ☆ anyway he can't find natsume to do it (wow wonder why) so!!!!


rikki <3 he'll def request her help with it. please brush him up he'll try not to wiggle so much (he's gonna be wiggling a lot)]

entrance

[compendiem]

Honey, I'm home...

[ Is that the proper response... Either way, despite looking like he'd stumbled into this place by accident, Minato tries to peek over Rika's without entering the room, giving up after half a second and deciding it would be easier to ask. ]

Is Elizabeth home?

love spell booth!!

[futurebullets]

[Call it curiosity or maybe even something else... but Hinata trails over to this booth in particular, looking it over with observant eye.

Not like he's looking for himself or anything! It's just... idle wondering...

He's a little hesitant, but he still forces himself to ask.]

Hey, Kawai... Do these really work? Has anybody else tried them yet?

john wilkes love spell booth

[closewithnewintown]

[Steph sure is looking at the love spell book with more interest than someone who definitely has strong opinions on the existence of cooties should be, but, hey, that's her fuckin business.]

Is this real magic, or fakey magic. [because both are equally real she just wants to know what she's dealing with.]

love spell booth.

[lunarchain]

[ There's a very serious expression on her face, arms crossed looking toward the other as she eyes the crafty conception of love potions of all sorts. ]

These? These change the 'Fate' of someone who drinks it, and makes them 'Fall in Love'?

love spell booth, but wildcard

[unsurely]

[ It's kind of later into the day, once the rush at the busiest midpoint has passed and both workers and visitors seem to settle into a quieter pace, owed in part to exhaustion and the suffocating heat of your typical summer afternoon. All of them... except Shuichi apparently, because given the nature of what he's running it makes sense it'd get busier in the second half, unlike everything else. He bursts in through the door to 3-A at this point, a little more urgently than he apparently intended -- if the embarrassed flinch he gives when it draws a couple of people's eyes is any sign.

He averts his eyes from those though, hoping they'll just... go back to whatever they were doing, and scans the whole classroom instead for a second, before it seems to occur to him where to go. There's, by some miracle, nobody at Rika's love spell booth at this time, so he turns to approach her. ]

Ah-- U-Um... Kawai-san?

[ He's a little visibly out of breath (it's just from running up and down stairs, don't worry about it) as he approaches, taking a moment to draw in air and wipe some sweat off his brow with the sleeve from his right hand. His other arm is still in its sling, so... not too much use for that. ]

I was wondering... if you haven't seen a black bag on the desks at any point? I'm pretty certain this is the classroom it was lost in, but I just... can't seem to trace what happened to it after that.

actual maid-work ♡

[sisters]

( because it's not like he's going to ask anything demanding of her anyway!!

amami's spent his day mostly cooking to provide said sweets for their valued customers, with some short drop-ins to the love spell booth to check on how that's going. that said, he knows the labour laws — he's entitled to one whole hour break somewhere through all of this and, considering the festivities going on today, there's really only one way to spend it. whenever rika gets tracked down and rounded up from wherever she is, her next customer will be waiting at his seat with his chin resting on the palm of his hand and a smile on his face. )

Sorry, I know I can't exactly pay up, but I thought I'd see if you'd be up for taking a break with me.

[commences]

Where is she? Don't talk back to me, you bring her now.

( if rika was looking for trouble, trouble has came looking for her, because one of the hosts seems to be a little off today, a little too proud in their position as irritation settles onto his countenance. he doesn't have time for any of these background characters that are just a filler in his romance, he's too busy living the now. yes, so that means, he wants to see who he's looking for at this exact moment — despite being told not to enter room 3-a, he wastes no time forcing his way in, passing whoever, and ignoring who speaks to him.

one of them decides to try it though, calling him by, "despair's friendly foe", which is greeted with a scowl, and complete disgust. )

Despair? Don't be a fool, I would never play a hand in something so... absurd. You'll refer to me as Ultimate Hope, ( delusional. ) now fetch me Kawai-san.

( it doesn't take long until someone makes their way to rika asking for help... help... he's insane. )

various / / Kitchen

[moderating]

Rika-san, do you have a minute?

[ Nanami stayed in the Kitchen and was happy to oblige with the harder unfun work. Washing dishes, making sure Noah didn't take all the knives, and attempting to cook when she needed to. Or set the drinks upon the tables when she were asked. When she sees Rika flitting about all over, she knows that there doesn't seem time or measure to stop the other. However, after what seems to be a breaking moment for Rika?

Nanami takes it upon herself to approach the other, offering them a filtered glass of water, incase she hadn't had anything to drink yet. ]

love spell booth;

[filialdeception]

[ So, Meng Yao has been meaning to check out the host club actively because of a conversation he's had with Komeada, but he kind of dithers a little until everything is out in full display.

Though, he comes anyway because he is a man of his word (?), and is a little lost. He does end up approaching her at some point. But before he's thinking of talking proper business with her, the booth does...kind of catch his eye.

So he's eyeing the second one. ]

...This one humbly requests if you happen to have some knowledge if there are any strange effects regarding any of these spells?

i'd like to apologise for this toplevel

[silentabyss]

☽ Catboy Crimes

[To anyone who thought I was kidding when I said in discord that Noah would be wearing a maid dress, I was not, and yes the boob window is part of the getup and as everyone in the school is about to find out, Noah is a lot more muscular than he looks under all that goth. Gender is fake. Anyway.

Someone crammed him into this outfit and while he's not exactly thrilled he's not exactly dying about it, and after a short while Noah kind of gets into the groove of a) the fact that he's wearing a very fluffy dress with like, actual layers under it and b) acting like he's good at this job. Fake it 'til you make it, they say. For all his shyness and for the way Elizabeth's introduction makes him freeze up because he's definitely not any of those things she named, he's trying his best.

Trying his best eventually culminates into not only flirting ("flirting" — this is Noah we're talking about here, and he gets flustered pretty easily) but doing sleight of hand tricks, something Noah is fairly deft at considering his background. Where did that card go? Behind your ear? When he retrieves it, he'll wink at you and maybe drag his hand along your cheek a little too long before tossing it into the air and — oops, the card's gone. Did you miss it in your distraction, or did you see it get snatched up by one of the shadows on the ceiling enabling Noah's tricks?

If you ask nicely enough, he'll feed you snacks, but don't expect him to not get flustered about it. It's a good act coming from the kid who can't actually talk to people, but sometimes things fall through the cracks. No matter who visits, he's giving flirting an attempt... He really wants those fucking dorms, y'all. Please try not to point out the fact that he's been blushing profusely the entire time he's been working. Or do. He can't stop you right now.]

☽ Knife Crimes

[Perhaps you swing by after Noah has figured out that he can steal the kitchen knives and hide them in the 238947 layers making up this dress, and with a little finagling (aka hidden shadow magic strapping all the knives down), he's managed to make it so that they don't fall out of the outfit when he moves.

There are two reasons he's doing this. One, some cheeky student at some point dared him to juggle knives for his sleight of hand tricks, and so Noah can be seen occasionally doing that and praying he doesn't lose a finger. Two, and this is the more fun reason: There's a line of people betting on just how many knives he's hidden in this skirt of his, and it's kind of started a whole betting ring. The prize for guessing correctly is left up to the winner — be it free snacks, a kiss, a date in the courtyard since that's the furthest he can go out... The only rule is it can't be anything violent or illegal, which is real rich coming from the kid who's juggling knives to bring in money.

But, hey, it's working. At this point they might as well have put on a cirque instead of a maid café. Boys will be boys, certainly.

Line up, place your bets, or watch the kid nearly lose a finger every couple minutes. Or maybe ask him for the knives back, because he's stolen like, all of them, Godspeed to the kitchen staff.]

[closewithnewintown]

Pst.

[oh man. what is that. is that a gas leak. no it's a lil pink head popping up after Noah's latest customer leaves.]

Psssst.

CLASSROOM 3-E

[kingofscience]

[ A few classrooms away in 3-E, Senku has set up his own small fundraiser to work in conjunction with the Maid Cafe and Host Club! Outside of the door is a sign that reads: ]

CANNED FOOD DRIVE: 10% OFF purchases in the Host Club/Maid Cafe if you bring in canned food!

[ And to show that you have done such, Senku will hand you some coupons for you to use at the respective establishments! If anyone asks about what food drive the food is going to, he'll tell them the food will go to students at the school who aren't able to get a lot of food for themselves outside of classes. Which isn't entirely wrong; it's just not the whole truth. They've got to get enough food to last for a month somehow. He didn't want to rely on just the vending machine, and he's not sure if that thing is infinitely churning out snacks either. ]

[ Should your character want a break from the Host Club and Maid Cafe, feel free to come talk to Senku in between all the excitement! He doesn't mind the company at all! He might put you to work in giving out coupons, though, but that's about the extent of what he'll make you do. ]

[closewithnewintown]

["working" means "stacking the cans into a pyramid," right. that's working.]

... Is this a thing that happens in normal schools? [because senku is on her incredibly short list of Mostly Normal People.]

[commences]

01. kiss kiss,

Welcome to the Kissing Booth...~

( his voice low, watching as someone is making their way over, and he lifts one hand to beckon them over closer. he knows his reputation isn't the best, but that doesn't mean he has to make it hard for what's supposed to be happening here. dressed to impress, he lowers his hand to fix the cuff of his sleeve properly, with a soft smile on his face. as soon as that's done, he's trying to fix the tie around his neck, failing ultimately, so he focuses on sweeping back the lock of hair that curls under his eye behind his ear.

his eyes remained trained on the eyes of his visitor, trying to find what or who they're looking for, and if your character glances off to the side, komaeda will glance over too. he'll pick up a little name card that reads "☆☆☆-kun," and he offers it over to them. )

If you're looking for Akehoshi-kun, he had to leave for a few, ( maybe to check on natsume. ) but if you come back at these times...

( he'll show off the timestamps of when he's to make his appearance, )

A shooting star will show themselves to the lucky you! Ahaha, this is pretty fun...

02. what's 9 + 10? 21.

( when he's not at the kissing booth, he can be found in this classroom with the rest of his host club peers, and he'll glance around the room to find someone who is sitting by themselves. or, perhaps they requested him, either way, he's coming over with a tray that has about ten different drinks on it, and he sets it down on the side of the desk. he takes a chair from behind him, spinning it around so that he can sit down properly on the opposite side. )

Forgive me for making you wait.

( as a token of his apology, he pulls out the black handkerchief from his pocket, and next is a desk of cards that he had hiding away. with them now in his hands, he proceeds to shuffle them slow, watching the other across the table as he suggests what's on his mind, because it wouldn't be a fundraiser without a little fun, right? )

The drinks can be on me — ( yeah, the opportunity to splash him, or let him keep talking. ) if you beat me in a little game... what do you say?

( it's a fucking shame i can't find the "you laugh, you drink" or "do or drink" question list, but there's also blackjack, or give and take. we're playing the drinking games, where are the drinking games! there's also this rhyming word game, but the choice is yours... komaeda will probably use his luck, because rika would beat his ass if he really gave our free stuff. )

jeff bezos, give me back his my wig! wildcard.

( okay, do anything you want to him, and if you want me to write you a closed... i can do that too. just go wild. komaeda goes back and forth through the classrooms, and he's also wearing a cute little cat tail which has a blue cheshire cat that appears in and out, so it'll feel like you're hallucinating. if you need anything from him, you can just call him over, other than that... he'll show off hiro's fantastic art skills.

whatever you need komaeda for, he's yours. )

— unsurely, as we... crackussed

[commences]

( crack, but discussed. )

Saihara-kun, may I have a moment?

( it's probably the worst time to come and engage with him considering there's about an hour or less until the fundraiser goes up, and here he is bothering saihara for something so little. komaeda's right hand slowly runs though his hair, slipping through the gradient until his fingers slip out accompanied by a few strands of stray hair. with the suit that he's wearing, it doesn't matter if his gets on it since it blends in perfectly, just like lily may's cat hair that he's occasionally still picking out. )

I was wondering... if you'd be able to put my hair up, like you did last time? I've tried, but...

( he can do it as many times as he likes, but it never fits the way that the other did it for him before, and komaeda's more satisfied with what an ultimate does than what he can do. )

[futurebullets]

i. classroom 3-A

[Although he's considerably grumpy about Elizabeth's description for him, Hinata will wander away from his post before things really get in motion to check on the maid cafe side of things. Is he going over there just so he can hover protectively over Nene before he's truly needed that much? Maybe, but you don't have to call him out on it :/

Even if he was strong-armed into this by pleading faces, though... There's something about this that lifts his spirits, just a little bit. The cloud that's been hanging over him - over more than just him, now - seems a little bit clearer, everything a little bit brighter. Togami... You had the right idea back then, didn't you? Hinata wishes he could see it now... but that's never a good train of thought for him, so he refocuses back on the bustling that makes everything a little brighter.

He won't be around on this side of things for an especially long time, but you might find him helping out a little bit with bringing out food if it happens to get busy, or curiously wandering between the booths.]

ii-a. classroom 3-B, closed to Komaeda

[Eventually Hinata's little break in the maid cafe will come to an end, because somebody - probably Rika, maybe someone else? - will call out to him saying that he's got a guest asking for him.

Hinata may have only been roped into this through Rika and Ouma's begging, but he still has his deep-rooted sense of obligation, so he'll hurry over the moment he's called, hurrying through the doors to the table and-

Just. Stares, at the person who is unmistakably Komaeda Nagito.

You have got to be fucking kidding me.]

...Sorry, it seems there was a mix-up. I apologize for you having to look at my worthless face for longer than necessary. [His eyebrow is twitching, ever so slightly. If Rika set this up, he'll be livid.] If you could tell me who you're actually looking for, I'll go get them for you right away.

ii-b. classroom 3-B, ota

[After the... probably very harrowing experience of Hinata's first guest, he'll be prepared for any more that might appear. Whenever he happens to be called upon, Hinata will, while blushing furiously, force out this halting and slightly stammering line:]

W-Welcome to the Host Club... For as long as you'll have me... I'll give you everything that I am...

[He may have some other lines, but those are considerably worse.

Hinata doesn't have much to offer compared to some of the others, but he'll happily (source: ?) offer any guests food or drinks to any who request it... and feed them personally, or anything else they might want, if they happen to ask (although he'll be pretty flustered if they do). If you're looking for an easy to fluster, sweet boy-next-door type, Hinata is your host!]

iv. wildcard

((want to do something else? feel free to throw a wildcard at me! if you want to do any brainstorming or want to hit me up for anything else, feel free to shoot me a PM or hit me up at Yamadori!))

ii-a.

[commences]

I was told the most normal boys have something to offer —

( it almost sounds like a jab, but it's the cute little tune that elizabeth sung for hinata's name, which by komaeda's standards is pretty well thought out. she's a true creator, an innovator, and he claps his hands together as he watches the other come towards his table — komaeda's still dressed in his working attire, but he's just on break this time. he can tell that hinata is ready to run away, break free from whatever hell he's found himself in, but for the fundraiser, everyone should get along. this sort of hope is refreshing, watching how everyone tends to come together for one thing they can all agree on. )

So what do you have...?

( with his elbow on the table, he rests his cheek in the palm of his hand as he watches the other, and his cat tail curls as he shifts in his chair. )

The Sheep Among The Wolves, Nene Yashiro!

[mermaidcursed]

( BEHIND THE SCENES ! )

( just before everything begins, there's some last-minute touchups that need doing... so you might find her at the tables doublechecking the food and drinks- some of which she's made herself!- or adjusting the maid dress that had turned up at her locker mysteriously, along with the cat ears...

... w-who's idea was that? she's more flustered than she'd like... b-but maybe customers will like that?

or, perhaps... you'll find her fixing her pigtails or checking her makeup in private behind the changing curtains, because red eyeshadow can't hide red, sleepless eyes as well as anyone wishes that it could. but oddly enough, despite the many months in this hell school... you might notice that nene's cleaner than ever and smells like a lovely ocean breeze? what's up with that. )

( ON THE FLOOR! )

( despite the unease behind the scenes, nene seems to be handling everything well! so when you come in, don't be too surprised when she smiles brightly and sincerely, gesturing to open chairs. )

Welcome! Please, have a seat!

( almost makes you want to pick her, huh? )

( BETWEEN SHIFTS! )

( eventually, her time to rest comes... join her for a small break behind the scenes, fellow maid? she's got sandwiches and drinks, and a cozy little place to sit. or maybe drag her out to explore! there's a lot happening after all. )

( WILD CARD! )

( something else related to the event? let's go! )

on the floor

[starrypoint]

[of COURSE he's gonna visit..! he's here for natsume really (he'll come back when natsume's Really Here) but subaru's definitely gonna pick out nene for his server right now, taking a break from his own delegations. still sporting the dog wolf ears he'd asked for though]

Nene~! Me next, me next! I want something citrusy~! Oh oh, and whatever you like too! I might be a wolf, but I promise, I won't gobble you up~.

[since she's a sheep..!!!]

☆ the sparkling knight ☆ of the night sky ☆

[starrypoint]

✨ welcome to the host club ✨
[subaru's an absolute natural in this environment, being an idol and also having the experience of part time jobs to back it up — but even if he didn't, it'd be clear that the line trailing well outside of 3-B is his popularity's fault from the way the girls (and a good gaggle of guys) ask elizabeth to repeat his line over

and over

and over again, for the multiple times they come by and just to hear it again... their starry knight, you know? boy, it sure must get tiring of hearing it though]

Welcome, welcome! ☆ Take a seat anywhere that's free, we'll get you set up with the host of your dreams as soon as they've got a moment! ☆

[which, for a lot of the incoming during his shift, is him, so sorry if you're secondary choices while he flits and flirts around, grin bright and friendly attitude at its max. like he's meant to be here..!!!]

✨ break time ✨
[more like a forced break, because subaru'd do this all day if he could, but he knows the importance of taking A Moment to yourself and

that'd be a lot easier if people weren't asking where he was, eager to see him (for the first time, or their fifth), and with the haunting tones of elizabeth's intro for him ringing above the sighs of disappointed students.

he's tucked himself away somewhere his fellow fundies take their breaks, thankfully away from public... whew... subaru won't mind being talked too, but he sort of looks like he's taking a nap with how he's sitting with his eyes closed]

✨ u~chuu chuu ✨
Ahaha, welcome, welcome! Who're you aiming for, Maddy? Or me?

[cause if it's komaeda he'll wave them over to the side if he's around, but otherwise he'll let 'em know the times that komaeda'll be back from his breaks so they can have ~alone time~ with the cleaned up normie-passing liceman himself]

Hey hey, while you're here, do you want me to sign anything? It's a little extra, but you can dole out a little more for me, can't you..?

[with that sweet smile, that bright, friendly voice that feels like it's just for you, how he subtly tugs his collar as if maybe, maybe, he'd like you to tug it too...☆

and yes he'll still act this way with people he knows, if maybe a little more teasing depending on who it is]

✨ etc ✨
[anything and everything else..! subaru's a busy bee who'll be flitting here, there, and everywhere, so if you'd like him to drop by anything or take your char on a wild ride he's here to supply the good times. you can hit me up at fusionicstars or on disco for any other plannings]

✨ break time ✨

[mermaidcursed]

( she's on break too... and she's not nearly as popular as subaru is, so if she's tired, how's he feeling? that's why... once he's gotten himself some (h. hopefully purified) water, she tugs him down beside her, so he can lean on her shoulder for a bit. )

You've done a lot today, huh...?

[crystallomancy]

the double-crossing crossdresser

( For better or for worse... Natsume actually looks quite good in the maid's dress given his already thin and girlish figure, one more modest than most — no boob window, in example — that goes to his knees, covering slim legs in white tights. There's some light makeup done, and his perfume is a warm, faintly floral mix today. And yes, he has the cat ears. Meow.

Despite the fact he hates this, hates every single bit of things, he treats his customers with a coy smile and a small curtsy. )

And what can Natsume-chan do for you toDAY..? ( Master or Mistress, please, some girls come see him. ) Your wish is my comMAND. As a maidgician of happiNESS, it's my duty to make sure you're well-taken care OF...♪

a charming booth

( The actual thing he wanted to do, rather than the maid café — but Rika wouldn't let him attend without some compromise, and he prefers this to "let me stab you" or something similar to that.

though

he kind of wishes he had taken a sword instead, sighs, especially since he still has to wear the maid dress right now.

Anyway, while his booth is simple in design — looking like one of those typical fortuneteller ones — his charms are anything but. Elaborate paper charms, with things like "fortune," "love," "protection," "studying," and so on... There's triple the amount for studying and good grades charms, seeing as the exam season is coming up.

There's also, as a surprise, a stack of thin, colorful strips of paper — the same as the wish paper from last month. The instructions read: "Write a regret and tie it to the rope; at the end of the fundraiser, it will all go up in smoke."

...So? Buy a charm, chat up the shopkeep, or write something you regret and tie it to the braided rope he's made to hang just for this booth. The choice is yours. )

THE DCC

[commences]

( a maidgician of happiness, is that how natsume sees himself? komaeda gives him a look up and down, contemplating the puns that are weaved within his introduction, but with his eyes latched onto the cat ears... he clears his throat. )

Nyatsume-chan, that's how you should say that...

( for the cat life, but it's been awhile since he's been able to have a proper conversation with natsume when it wasn't the pda — they've kept their distance, or rather their paths just didn't have reason crossing one another. luckily, this fundraiser that rika put a great amount of thought into has given them that chance, so komaeda will accept it, besides he's been thinking since their time apart. )

And you should wear the tail, it'll catch the attention of many customers...

( it's a two-shade of blue which probably doesn't match natsume's attire, but komaeda's already unclipping it from his clothes as he looks towards the other. ) May I?

[moraloutrage]

[Ishimaru might have experienced a bit of a meltdown the other week, but he's not going to let that stop him from doing his part to help with the fundraiser. It's an important step towards making this environment for livable for the transfer students and advancing their future. So he shows up, dressed up (and sporting the cat ears, of course), to supervise the event. He tries to keep up a positive attitude, but mostly he seems intense and driven as he goes to and fro.

He can be found out in the hallway, where he helps the others with fielding questions and directing others to the room of their choice. He spends time in both rooms, to ensure that things are running smoothly. In 3-B, he decides to take a turn acting as a host, despite being practically clueless about what he's supposed to do. Still, he'll greet his guest with his most forced smile! Then in 3-A, he looks to make sure that everyone is behaving themselves, but he might find himself being waited on by a maid! Aside from that, he'll generally patrol the area to talk with others and make sure things are going alright and that no one else has died. He'll also check out the booths and other attractions to make sure they're on the up-and-up!]

whoops maid time

[mermaidcursed]

Ishimaru-kun!!

( he's hardly the first friend to step in, but she's free right now- and isn't that lucky! with a soft smile, she gestures the way towards a nearby free seat. )

You've been working hard, so come have a small break. We've got plenty of options!

unfortunately, Lucifer,

[carpevinum]

⛧ The Virtue of Patience

[Unfortunately for everyone here, Lucifer is hot as fuck and is absolutely walking around in high heels because he's a showoff and by the Demon King he needs people to know. He's also a very cute cat, and he will "nya" for extra money. Really he's more of a dogboy, and the catboy act is reserved for his brother Satan, but he'll do his best.

That being said, he's being swarmed by people at all hours of the day today, which means if you want to talk to him, you're either going to have to be a customer yourself (or pretend to be, anyway), or push your way through his fanbase. He seems used to this, considering how popular he was back home, and he's keeping his patient face on. You know, that patience he was introduced with? That's kind of a lie, but he's really great at pretending it's not.

He's just making the situation worse by refusing to break character at all, and even though the caterwauling is mildly annoying? This is all just contributing to his ego in the end. If he flirts with you, he's not sorry. Lucifer, as everyone can see, is a bit of a whore. Just don't expect anything to come from it, as he's only doing this to help out.

If you approach Lucifer at all, he'll smile and hit you with a half-lidded gaze, simply asking in a sultry tone,]

What can I do for you, my dear?

⛧ Alternatively, Mixology

[When your idiot brother loses a bet and makes you work at a high-end club for the evening because all bets Mammon places must inflict harm onto others, you learn a few skills. One such skill Lucifer has picked up is mixology, and even if he's not necessarily making alcoholic drinks, and even if he's not really mixing much because this is a high school... he's doing these ridiculous tricks for an audience and serving drinks. It requires extra money, of course, to "compensate for potential spillage and broken bottles", of which Lucifer has broken absolutely nothing.

He's wearing a smile the entire time, and if you're lucky, you might get a wink served with your drink. Showoff.

If you really want to, instead of letting Lucifer show off so much when serving you, maybe you consider trying to knock him down a peg by trying to get him to fumble his tricks? Good luck; you'll need it.]

⛧ Alternatively, Mixology

[lunarchain]

Oh! How wonderful, I do hope you know all that wonderful flailing you've been doing I haven't the penny to pay you for the show.

[ Mona gives the other a slight clap, and settles onto a chair only to rest for a moment. She didn't wanna stay long, since she wasn't a customer just visiting to see what everyone was doing. ]

[elevelvetor]

nice shaved ice

( While Elizabeth's primary roles are 1) make sure no one makes trouble at the fundraiser (and take care of it if necessary) and 2) tell people about their chosen hosts-or-maids, the thing she actually signed on to do... was make snowcones, and she's made plenty of them prior to the event.

There's several flavors, all in their own little cup-bowls! Strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, banana, apple, and, for some reason, sweet potato. But if none of those catch your eye... Elizabeth will inch out a little card with several other possibilities: pancake syrup, shrimp, teriyaki sauce, and squid ink. )

...That is the secret menu, ( she stage-whispers. ) Rika isn't aware of it, but she never said I couldn't have one...

( .......... c: )

Snowcone?

npc rights

( That is, Elizabeth-plays-an-NPC rights. In her downtime she went to check out Senku's canned food drive, and...

Well.

She may have misunderstood the brief a little, because once she received the coupons and instructions to pass them out, she bowed and left with the whole stack and now she's handing them out willy-nilly, along with Thanatos. )

Please take one... and consider donating to the food drive. ( ??? SHE'S REMEMBERED IT, AT LEAST? ) You'll receive another coupon for doing so, provided you've used your first one.

( .................it balances out?

And if you're not taking one —

Yes You Are! (: Elizabeth will chase you down the hall to get you to TAKE ONE, or send Thanatos after you until you take one from him. Take it! Take it! Take it! )

bring it around time

( otherwise, elizabeth is just around the fundraiser, keeping an eye on things... sneaking off to make more snowcones in another classroom... refilling on flavors... etc. come hang out with her or invite her around or make her say subaru's intro another fifty times with the same inflection and bravado she's done every single time she's been asked, do it.

tl;dr she's more free than natsume so wildcard option )

[samuraiwomen]

Elizabeth-san...... [ She stares down at the secret menu card with an indescribable expression. ]

[samuraiwomen]

a). Before the Fair

Hey! [ Sara has been helping out Ishimaru with the paperwork, and she waves you down outside classroom 3-A with a sharp word and a glare. ]

We finally got the final itinerary sorted. [ She hands a small sheet of paper over. ] All the booths and participants should be there. Do you know what you need to do? I'll have you know any last minute outfit requests are not allowed!

b). Host Club Start: The 15.5% Survival Rate Killjoy Detective

[ While other hosts might bow or curtsey when a potential customer approaches, Sara stands casually in her suit, a single hand on her hip. Her hair is down from its braid for once, and she's put slightly more makeup then usual to hide any dark shadows from sleepless nights. Maybe she's not a cute a girl as Nene, but if scary older sister types are your ideal, Sara is here to serve. ]

Oh? [ She tilts her head, giving a slight nod of acknowledgement. It's hard for her to turn the constant judgmental stare off, but she's making an effort to appear warmer, even to strangers. ] How can I help you? Do you need a drink?

c). A break backstage.

[ While other hosts might spend their breaks mingling in the rest of the fair, Sara can instead be found on the stairs with a bottle of water and a blank stare, seemingly ignoring the festivities. She looks...tired. ]

backstage

[silentabyss]

[Noah's basically here to be the femme to Sara's butch right now which is really entertaining for various reasons, anyway,

might wanna teach Noah how to sit in a skirt because he comes to rest beside Sara and manspreads again.]

...doing okay?

the octopus trap of the heart, hajun yeon! 👑

[rhymed]

I. ENTRANCE

[ During shifts where he's either not taking a break or entertaining guests, Hajun can be found in the front of the classroom greeting individuals and encouraging them to join the line. He's dressed in his suit, expression gentle as customers approach sheepishly. ]

I apologize for the wait. Let's get you something nice to drink once you've sit down, darling. [ Charming, he's learned from Anne that formalities need to be tossed aside when you host. The goal is to make them feel like a friend and close enough to be a lover, which is why he might be seen offering a hand and guiding guests inside to their host -- don't worry! He's not here to steal anyone's thunder!

If you're a fellow host, come join him... or maybe you're next in line he's gotta strike up conversation until the next person is available! Go fuckin' wild. ]

II. HOST CLUB

Do you want me to pour you another drink?

[ Hajun asks, his voice sweet and purposefully languid. He sits beside his guest with a practiced smile and fluid motions, already comfortable enough to lean in with a quizzical look; canting his head slightly, feigning innocence. In all due respect, he does a good job in at least playing the part of a playful young man who knows how to tease someone for the sake of... not being an asshole. He's polite and friendly, and when asked he'll politely ~nya~.

He's also not against holding hands and making eye contact, which is what is getting him the best word out when his guests leaves. He's like a prince! They'll exclaim, and a piece of him feels more relaxed knowing that he hasn't abandoned the mask he's made -- the one that has protected him for years. ]

Or would you like me to hold your hand? I've been told I give good hand massages, you deserve to be pampered while you're here.

III. WILDCARD

( "ryza i wanna kiss hajun" get in line then -- anyway jk if you wanna do anything else just lmk i'm just a fish swimming. if you wanna do some breaktime funsies just lmk and i can also write us up a starter! )

sigh

[contrarily]

( she slips away from her booth occasionally, go to check on the hosts. it's a different room, so god knows what's happening there, after all... it seems like so far, everyone's doing their job, though. she doesn't really expect or want to take up any of their time they could be spending on the guests, but when she catches hajun on break, it's hard to resist — she sneaks up behind him, placing her paw-like, gloved hands over his eyes, and snickers. )

Guess who, nya. ~

( you know, like he did to her once... smh. )

[begetblue]

A = "Information in Style"

Welcome! May I interest you in a brief tour of the festivities going on today?

[ Honestly, Turing was in their element. Maybe some would see their role in the fundraiser as boring, but as someone who quite liked talking, this was like...their dream job. Or pretty close to it, anyway. Granted, having a perfect memory also helped with relaying everything to visitors, but never mind that.

They would be walking around and approaching anyone who seemed lost or confused first and foremost. If they recognized anyone walking around, well, those people were also getting approached, and it would be immediately apparent that Turing was in a very good mood. ]

B = "Curiosity killed the..."

[ Turing would also be poking their head into both the maid cafe and the host club, because what even are those. Seriously, they had absolutely no point of reference for what maids and hosts did outside of dictionary definitions of the words. How could they not want to see them all in action?

This was just one of the pitfalls behind Hayden's choice to only let Turing watch educational television. ]

C = "WILDCARD"

[ Anything else! You can PM me, plurk is sibilative, discord is cloudycube#9356, you know the drill

Also Turing is going to be flipping back and forth between the host club outfit and the maid outfit, so pick one or I will just flip a coin!! The cat ears are there regardless of outfit of course ]

A

[moraloutrage]

[As Ishimaru checks out the state of the fundraiser, he finds Turing all dressed up as a host and greets them with a smile.]

Hello there, Turing-kun! You have done a good job of dressing up. You look very charming! Have you been faring well in your duties? [He has utmost faith in them! But he has to check up on the adorable robot regardless.]

[spiritoso]

i - preparations;

[ She can't believe she was signed up for this... Providing background music via piano or something like that was more along the lines of what she was thinking when she expressed wanting to help out. Not actually being a maid.

Whatever. She can do this! Then she sees the cat ears. ]

Isn't this a bit much...?

[ She's still going to wear them, but still!! ]

ii - maid cafe;

[ Donning the cat ears and the maid outfit, Kaede tries to take care of anyone she can. The only problem is... she really has no idea what she's doing. ]

Welcome. Um... what would you like to eat?

[ She smiles, but it's a little forced thanks to her embarrassment. Her cheeks are a bright pink too, only making it even more obvious. ]

iii - wildcard;

[ She eventually decides to make her way over to the host club taking a seat and waiting to see who comes to wait on her. But she can also be found on her breaks wandering around between the different booths! ]

ii

[moraloutrage]

[It seems the maid cafe sends someone to serve him each time he tries to check up on them. This time, it's Kaede! He feels awkward about it as well, as he's still not used to being the 'master' himself. It's somewhat embarrassing, but he nervously tries to answer her.]

Ah... Omurice should be sufficient. [But it feels weird to have someone wait on him, so he hastily tries to follow her.] Actually, let me help you with that!
