player event: fundraiser
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?

— unsurely, as we... crackussed
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. )
crack... this looks so normal for now i'm tearing up
[ He's busy with cardboard boxes he's setting up for his own booth -- just to store the potential lost items away, to make certain nobody takes them if they're not theirs. He was counting... he'd barely even seen Komaeda approach, considering the hustle and bustle of people who go back and forth, all of them busy preparing last-minute things for their projects or jobs, just like himself. It doesn't even dawn on him who it is, in fact, until he manages to break from the mental trail he'd been on and look up. ]
Ah... are you sure?
[ He places the box he'd been holding in his one good hand down, though, and turns. ]
There are probably people here who can do it better, you know? But if you want me to... I don't mind.
just two guys at the lost but i found you booth
I want... ( with his prosthetic, he hesitates for a moment, and with a deep breath after he'll reach for saihara's wrist, and komaeda tilts his head down so that he can place his good hand on top of that fluffy, gradient mess. and for emphasis: ) you to do it... again.
( there's only one other person who can do it "again" as well, but he's not asking them. )
We can go to another place so that I don't shed everywhere.
( not his dog speech. )
(google voice) did you mean: two gays
...
[ Ah, wait. So he doesn't shed...? He looks at Komaeda's hair for a second, touching it with his fingers since the other's gone through the trouble of pulling his hand to it anyway. It doesn't seem that fragile... but he supposes it's probably pretty tangled, like always. Even last time, he didn't dare to comb more than the tips, though not so much out of fear for not ripping it out as because he just... didn't want it to hurt. Would a few strands of hair even matter on the floor here, though? Also, since when is Komaeda considerate of things like that?
Could it be that... he wants Saihara to go with him for something else? He casts a glance through the room, making sure people are still setting up and it doesn't look like they'll be causing problems if they take a few minutes. ]
...Alright. Do you have a comb and a hair tie with you? I think Ishigami-kun has been using 3-E for something, but we can go to an unused classroom... like 3-D. Or the bathroom.
[ But a classroom might be better, since there are chairs and doing Komaeda's hair if he doesn't sit down would just make things harder on both of them. Actually... how is he going to do it with one hand...? That's a problem for future Saihara in a few minutes. ]
those thoughts are going to catch up while they're walking, they have to move faster!
( he hums thoughtfully, a hand to his chin, and eyes downcast towards the floor as he goes over his reasons, mentally. mirrors, water, an enclosed space — too many things could go wrong in a place like that, how his luck would play with the idea of dangerous reactions. as long as he doesn't value this as good luck — having saihara do his hair — then perhaps he can avoid any of the bad luck around him. it's adjusting to the people here, choosing its favorites, and harming them accordingly — if he didn't use his good luck to kill the former student council president, would saihara managed to avoid harm? he can think of ways to connect it, almost like he's pulling at straws to find excuses to not be around him, but saihara has already reassured him...
it lingers, and so, he thinks that the classroom will be best, for an easy escape that is! with that in mind, he'll begin walking with saihara to their preferred room. )
Here... ( he reaches towards his chest pocket to pull at a black and white handkerchief, but upon closer inspection the black one — which is an actual handkerchief — comes at first, and then there's a white fabric by its side that he removes. with both in hand, he pulls out about two rubber bands (worried that the first would probably snap), and he holds them out for the other to take. )
I knew there was something I was missing... I must've forgot, I really am bad at this sort of thing...
( sheepish laughter passes by his lips, albeit forced. seeking some sort of reassurance or attention for his shortcomings, he manages to turn his head to face saihara properly until —
whack!
goes something against saihara's head, and clatters onto the floor... a pink item by his foot. where it came from is a couple who seems to be arguing with each other, and it's easy to tell that it's something that slipped out the female's hand since it looks like she wanted to whack her date with it. annoyed, she walks off, and the man follows... gone. )
not can't catch them gay thoughts
Ah, it's alright. I still have the one from last-- whoa!?
[ The surprise cuts off his initially soft, reassuring voice, ending with a reflex 'ow!' he lets out through his lips at the object that smacks against his head -- by coincidence, right where behind his hair there's a hidden bruise (from when Natsume pushed him into the locker...) that's been almost entirely healed. Guess that gets to live a while longer now...
For the millionth time, he discovers it's inconvenient to only have a single hand, when he crouches to pick it up and he has to tear his knuckles from rubbing at the sore spot. Ah... is this a hair brush? It looks perfectly undamaged from the impact, too. But by the time he wants to call out to the two after their bickering is done... well, the reason he can't hear them arguing anymore is because they seem to be gone. It's alright. If he tries a little he can probably remember how they looked, and besides, he's running a Lost & Found booth in the first place, so if they look for it later that's most likely where they'll come.
He just stands up, stepping past Komaeda again. ]
Or I suppose... we could use this.
[ Resignation. That's a thing that reads tiredly in his voice, as he looks at the door to homeroom 3-D which they've gotten pretty close to in the process. ]
wheres the CHANDELIER!!!!
You're not bleeding, so you're okay... How lucky!
( it's not like he can see the bruise with those black locks in the way, nor did the ultimate brush his fingers along the area, and so he has no other choice but to think positively. his attention is now on the brush and or comb in saihara's grasp, and being well-versed in the products that are needed for pet care, he can tell what that is. he reaches out, brushing his fingers along the bristles as they fold under his touch, and it's a familiar touch that only lasts for a moment. komaeda retracts his hand to open the door to classroom 3-d, and he waits for saihara to go through first before following after.
once they're inside the room, he leaves the door open as he looks around to gauge how dangerous it is — normal classroom things, it's not as safe as the library, but... he thinks he can work with his surroundings. he probably should have adjusted with his life inside of there actually, but missing out on this gathering when there's so much hope around, it'd be unlike him! )
Saihara-kun... I bet your booth will be amazing, ( he chimes, clapping his hands together gently, praising ) considering someone of your exceptional talent will be running it.
( it doesn't take him long to pick a desk to sit at, his arms cross along the surface, but his organic on top so he can lay his head down. )
If you need any assistance, I can come by during my breaks.
it fell off bro this school haunted af
Komaeda seems to be looking around at things too... What's going on with him? It's hard to think when he has to keep carrying conversation, though. ]
Huh? W-Well... it's not like a second pair of eyes wouldn't be useful... but I'd feel kind of bad. If you're helping out at my booth, it doesn't really count as a break for you anymore.
[ As he's talking, he lifts his hand with the brush and steps closer. Now that he takes a better look... does this thing have two sides? Is it even a brush for people!? It looks more like something you'd groom an animal with... Is that related somehow to why the girl in the hallway threw it? Maybe nobody will come looking for it after all. He just has that feeling. Anyway, time to reach for Komaeda's hair... and promptly stop, because of the position he's in. ]
Um... y-you'll need to sit up... It's difficult to do anything if your head is on the desk.
[ Or on his arms which are on the desk, if we're being specific, but same thing. It's not prime material for fixing up someone's hair. ]
stopppp thinking about their low lock picking so they cant escape when the gay hits
( he's trying to relax, but he's having difficulties due to their surroundings, it only takes a certain amount of time until something goes wrong. before, he would have expecting ultimate's hopes being able to ignore the disappointing talent that komaeda owns, but now... he's tense. as he lifts up, he positions himself properly so that saihara has easier access in dealing with his hair, luckily for him that komaeda's not tender-headed, so he won't move too much. he will move though, his head tilting to the side that saihara brushes only because he finds it different — normally he just lives with bedhead and minds his business. )
...
( he thinks over his claim, fingers drum against the desk once, and with a short-lived bits of laughter with a twinge of mirth, he finds that the idea of it... couldn't last long. that means komaeda would have had to work, and then come over to the detective's booth to work overtime, but there's a problem with that. he sees an opening for him, lifting his right hand with his index extended as he speaks, as if he's about to point out the parts that work against what the other has said. )
Then I won't call them breaks, how about... I call it "me time", like normal! Not being able to take the necessary precautions to ensure the booth goes smoothly with me there makes this difficult...
not everyone can be ouma... smh some of us can't speedrun
[ The fact that Komaeda keeps acting strange about the room makes him wary -- you know, kind of like that thing dogs and cats do sometimes, when they stare at blank space and they bristle against thin air, and you can't help but wonder what they see. But there's nobody in the room... nothing to be careful about in sight, no matter how hard Saihara might try and discern it.
He also only has one hand to work with, so he can't afford to be distracted right now, as much as he feels tense. He redirects his attention on purpose, forcing himself as he starts with the tips of Komaeda's hair -- those were all he dared to try and comb last time, for fear of not hurting him, but maybe a little more right now would be in order... it's for an event, after all. ]
What...? What precautions are you talking about? Besides, I haven't even--
[ --agreed yet, but the brush gets stuck and tangles as he asks, like it's reflecting his own mental state. What exactly did Komaeda mean...? It's just a Lost & Found booth, there are only so many "precautions" that can be needed -- and most of them involve just being extra careful, so people don't take stuff that isn't theirs. He tugs a little, trying not to flinch from the way the motion seems to pull on the other's hair, freeing the brush to attempt that portion again. ]
its fine we can just take his hands? then we can get into any locked room :)
( the comment was only made a mere seconds ago, and komaeda seems to have forgotten that he said anything like that. moving on for the sake of easing into saihara's booth without being told no — he doesn't really need a yes. besides, his physical state is more than enough that should allow him entry, and he did say himself a second pair of eyes wouldn't be too bad! well, what's disappointing is while that's true, that specific second pair would only latch onto the first pair, not too worried about who comes and steals what.
the moment he's ready to speak up, he winces from the brush getting tangled in his hair as saihara works, and responds by closing his eyes — as if that's some myth of how to ignore the pain. holding his breath, he waits a little longer as the bristles goes through that one sport of his hair, getting undone slowly but surely. his fingers lightly scratch against the table, balling his hand into a fist, and once the brush is free — he exhales. he wouldn't be surprised if a few pieces of hair attached to the brush through that endeavor, but he settles his head back in place so he doesn't make this anymore troublesome. his eyes flutter back open, blinking a few times, and there's a smile on his face... he liked it, it's fine, besides it's not every day someone does this for him. )
...I should say "practice" instead.
( not that he needs practice for the lost & found booth, maybe that's because more training goes into something else that deals with the people. )
It's the Kissing Booth... if I don't do too well there, should I really be assisting Akehoshi-kun?
( then he can assist saihara instead! )
