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?
sparknotes
All the maids and hosts come equipped with one (1) pair of cat ears and a set of clothes prepared by the sewing club, if you don't have your own attire.
All the background people who are helping with the organizational stuff, as well as cooking, cleaning, etc, can feel free to wear the cat ears, too!
Feel free to mingle, join in as a volunteer host/maid late, get dragged in to do work, leave your posts, whatever else you feel like doing, tbh.
Cause too much trouble for anyone, though, and Rika's gonna come bonk you with her sword. Or Liz with Thanatos, whoever's there first.
Any complaints can be directed to our offcial organizer, Ishimaru Kiyotaka. Bless his heart.

ii-b but with a twist

[personal profile] unsurely 2021-07-10 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The line... I'm crying. I hope Hinata just says it by default, because: ]

Wh-Wha-- Hinata-kun!?

[ Saihara's voice pitches weakly and traces of red creep up on his face, his flustered expression coloring quickly. What had at first meant to be a turn, from watching the hallway through the classroom's currently open door to the person he heard approaching, is rather quick to become more of a skittish, startled jump instead. He corrects it after a second though, spinning to meet the other and kind of... avoiding his eyes because. He can't face him after a line like that!!!

Nor... after catching a glimpse of him in his costume and listen, Hinata looks good. ]


I-I'm sorry, I'm not... ah, I'm not a customer. I, um... just wanted to ask you something...

[ Help. ]

[A beat passes... then two...]

...Ah.

[He hadn't really been paying attention to who he was saying it to, just focusing on getting the line out. So when he lifts his head up from the half-bow he was in, and sees who happens to be standing there...]

Sai... hara...

[Hinata feels his whole entire face, very slowly, turn red.]

I-I'm so- so sorry, I didn't realize... [Saihara's blushing too and that's. Oh God that's even worse, Hinata needs help.] Never mind though, just- sorry...

[He shakes his head, tries not to lose eye contact completely since. It's kind of his job not to.

It's just... really not the way he expected to talk to Saihara again. He wishes he didn't have the ears on his head... but at least there's the host suit, so that's something.]


If you wanted to ask me something... go ahead. Did you want to grab a table first?

help them they need it

[ Why is Hinata apologizing too...!?

That somehow makes it even worse, and Saihara wishes desperately there was more empty space for his eyes to wander, because a classroom and whatever portion of the hallway he was seeing through the door... doesn't seem like enough, and in the end, he has to return to Hinata before he's ready at all. He does so self-consciously, still flustered, the hand that's not stuck at the end of a sling coming up to run awkwardly through his hair -- like trying to pull down something that isn't there.

He misses his hat. ]


...Ah, are you sure? There's just something I found, so I wanted to ask about a customer you had before...

[ It's no less true that he's wanted to talk to him, though. Not just now, but in general since the meeting -- a lot of things happened that kept him from making that a priority, but the way things left off between them feels... wrong. And he gets the impression there's something more going on with Hinata than just what happened that day. But is this really the best time...? He likely has more important things to deal with than Saihara right now. ]

But... you have a lot to do, right? For your work... I don't want to take too much of your time.

we've got two boys that have fallen and can't get up on aisle 5

[personal profile] futurebullets 2021-07-14 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
...It's fine, Saihara. [Hinata's voice is quiet.] If you're asking for me, that's still part of work, so. Don't worry about it, okay?

[Hinata glances away - but not before his eyes catch the sling, filling him with guilt.

There's a lot he wishes he'd said. But a lot more he wishes that he'd done.]


Besides... I don't get called on that much compared to the others, so I doubt anyone will be waiting. [He's digging at himself a little bit, but it's said matter-of-factly more than anything.] So, I can help with whatever it is. You had something to ask about another customer?

[personal profile] unsurely 2021-07-14 10:10 am (UTC)(link)
...You don't?

[ Is Hinata sure? Saihara can't help but look as he says that, betraying his doubts in his tone when he spots a few of the others around, also without customers right now. To him, it kind of seems like there's an even split and everyone's been getting around the same, but... okay.

He ends up heading to a "table" (they're just desks arranged for two people, so it's kind of hard to see them as such) anyway though, sitting down on one side since it's better than standing in the middle at least. Now they won't be in the way... and regardless of what Hinata says, he can be careful not to keep them too long. He takes out an object from one of his pockets and places it down with a gentle touch on the surface between them, before looking back up. ]


It's because of this... Witnesses told me it belongs to a girl with a ribbon in her hair -- a blue ribbon, to be more precise. Someone like that asked for you about an hour ago, right? Did she say anything when she left?

[ Me crying at "witnesses" for something like this but he'd absolutely word it like that without realizing. ]
futurebullets: <user name=albarose> (047)

[personal profile] futurebullets 2021-07-14 12:55 pm (UTC)(link)
No. It might be quiet right now, but the others are a lot more popular than me, so... I promise, it's okay.

[It is. Even if he doesn't quite know what to do with himself, it's okay.

Hinata grabs the seat across from him, trying not to feel especially nervous. Feeling nervous about this is dumb, and Hinata tries to stop immediately. (Success varying.)]


This is- [His train of thought is broken by "witnesses" because. Saihara no.] You know, unless something really bad is going on, you don't have to use a word like "witnesses", right?

[Hinata realizes, half a second too late, that he's using that joking tone and half-smile that he only uses with Saihara.

His face has just enough time to go pale before he refocuses his attention on the ribbon, trying to ignore the guilt that swims in the pit of his stomach.]


...Anyway. I remember her, yeah, although I can't think of anything she said that was out of the ordinary.

[Foot in mouth aside, he at least feels reassured that this isn't an emergency situation (or at least, nobody's dead this time). He's pretty sure Saihara would've brought this up in a very different way if it was.]

[personal profile] unsurely 2021-07-14 01:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah...! I-I'm sorry! No, she hasn't done anything, I didn't mean it that--

[ --way. He was just focused on the job? He gets flustered again, after moments ago he'd just managed to sort that out. To distract himself, he fiddles with the object he'd set down a bit earlier, opening the round-shaped casing to reveal what's inside -- it's a pocket-sized mirror with simple design, nothing much standing out about it except the charm that it's tied to. A little pink hedgehog, like a mascot of sorts, looped with a braided red string through the gap at the hinges that bind the lid to the half with the mirror itself.

There are scratches on the metal and a visible stain in a corner of glass; the thread looks worn, and the hedgehog is missing a spike... honestly, if she wanted, the girl who owns this could have probably replaced it with a newer one long ago. Plus the colors don't match what she wore... from those types of details, he thinks, this must be more of a sentimental object to her. Which is all the more why, if possible, Saihara wants to find her and give it back. As he thinks that, his hand squeezes tightly around the edges, as if thinking that in itself births resolve. ]


That's alright. I'm not looking for something strange, but it's just... I was thinking she might have told you about her day. Things like plans for her studies or club... what was she going to do after that?

[ It's the first step to finding her, more than anything else. ]
futurebullets: <user name=tanabata> (012)

[personal profile] futurebullets 2021-07-15 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
N-no- no, Saihara, it's fine! I'm... the one that should be sorry... I shouldn't be messing with you.

[Hinata wipes a hand down his face. This is a disaster.

He lets out a gusty sigh, collects himself. Focuses in on Saihara's words as he idly glances at the mirror. Cute, if worn. After a moment listening, he makes a sound of recognition.]


Ah, yeah, that's- That belongs to Hirano. I'm not sure which classroom, but she's a third year, too. Not in 3-C, though... I just recognized her from passing in the halls, but we didn't really introduce ourselves until she asked for me earlier. [He hums thoughtfully, trying to play back some of the conversation in his head.] I don't know if she goes to practice at all after class, but you might be able to catch her in the music room. She mentioned that she plays clarinet.

[ Shouldn't be messing with him...? He wants to say something on that or ask, but unfortunately the job he was doing for the event still comes first. Saihara listens to the details that follow instead, letting them click into place on their own -- Hirano from a third year class, not the same one Hinata's in (which makes sense because he's never seen her there during all the times he's visited and been whispered about for it), who plays clarinet... He can look for her in the music room right now, and even if he doesn't find her...

Maya would know more, he's sure. It's enough to be confident he'll find her, so by reflex his face brightens as he nods. He looks up -- with relief, a feeling he only... ]


Thank you, Hinata-kun. You're always helping me like this...

[ He means that; it's genuine. But that same train of thought is what clouds his expression again right away, and he has to try hard not to let his eyes fall to the table. He closes the mirror back up with a single, flat sound, before falling still. ]

I wish... there was something more I could do for you too...

[ Something that isn't revealing his friend as a murderer and throwing Hinata's peace into chaos. But in the end... that's kind of all a detective is good for. ]
futurebullets: <user name=albarose> (208)

[personal profile] futurebullets 2021-07-31 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
[Saihara may not, but Hinata does look down, hand clenching into a fist atop the table. He doesn't know if he should be - who is right in their situation? who is wrong? - but the feeling that squeezes at his heart is undeniably guilt.

His words, his expression - all of it makes Hinata's chest ache.]


I help you because I want to. I don't need anything in return.

[His voice is soft and strained, quiet admittances that have been weighing on his mind. Reassurances that would normally flow freely, but have instead been piling up and waiting to spill out.]

And even if I needed anything... You already do enough. Too much, always putting too much responsibility on your shoulders.

[I wish you'd take care of yourself more.

Hinata wants to say it. He doesn't.]
