August Event
Please let August be better than July I'm begging
✽ Due to 10+ classes raising their ranks last month, ALL characters have access to the courtyard via the door in the locker area and the windows facing the courtyard.
✽ Characters with 1-10 tallies are not able to get any further past the end of the courtyard before they fall unconscious; characters with 10-20 can get halfway to the pool building before the same happens to them; characters with 20+ tallies can reach the pool building but unfortunately, the door is on the other side. There are no windows on the walls, but from the clocktower, characters can see that it has a glass ceiling, though they are unable to see inside.
✽ Outside, there is no breeze, and it occasionally rains ash.
✽ Characters going up to the 4th floor will feel that the door is warm to the touch, and will occasionally open (see: missions)
✽ The student store opens, with the door propped open with a doorstopper. The npc running the storeis currently not interested in conversation, but may be available for threading in the future and is available for threading in the toplevel below. Please see the updated bonus activity page for more information.
✽ Posted on the bulletin board and also handed to each club president before break is the notice that proof of club activity is due at the end of break. Please submit these proofs in the toplevel below.
✽ There is another ad on the bulletin board advertising an exchange student program for the month of October. Applications will be taken until the end of August, and there is a 300 merit point fee. Sister cities include Death City, Devildom, Ishigami Village, Lanling, LazyTown, and Maiami City.

[Lucifer is swift to jump into his actual point, however, punctuating his statement with the smallest of sighs.]
I'm more referring to the fact that my home, the Devildom, is listed as an exchange program here. Historically-speaking, our university — which I was on the faculty of — does offer such things, but I was not consulted on it, nor have I had contact with the school's owner, Lord Diavolo, in... several months now. There is not a thing in this world he wouldn't tell me. If he were able to put an exchange program in place here, why would he not contact me about it?
[He shakes his head, distraught.]
This whole thing seems incredibly suspicious.
no subject
If you're here, someone's probably subbing for your faculty positions, right? Maybe... this is Lord Diavolo's way of contacting you?
[ Maybe there's some secret meaning to this, but Minato can't see it when he goes back to looking at the poster. No Gekkoukan High... though he wonders if he would return if given the opportunity. ]
If he agreed... maybe it's because he wants you to come back.
no subject
Someone has to be subbing, or I would imagine anyway... Diavolo cannot go so long without a right-hand. [Barbatos is usually the left!] ...It's either that, or this whole thing is a sick trick. I'd love to come back home, but alas, I doubt luck is in my favour.
[Much akin to the wish board way back when. Lucifer can still recall how upset some people were when looking at the board and wondering, at what point, they wrote those wishes — or who wrote them for them, in any case.
He shakes his head. Now isn't the time to seem so perturbed in front of a much younger student. So, moving on,]
I apologise for not giving you my name sooner. I am Lucifer. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
no subject
So you're Mr. Lucifer... Your food was highly recommended at the cafe last month.
[ More like Lucifer's name was mentioned and Minato immediately went "I want that one" but same thing ]
My name's Minato.
no subject
[He lets his brothers take the reigns, of course, but Beelzebub usually eats all of the ingredients and Belphegor usually sleeps through dinner, and Mammon... kind of can't cook anything but ramen, so...]
A well-balanced diet is important to promote growth, after all. You can't subsist off of the vending machine for the duration of your stay here.
[Some people are doing it, and he knows it, and when Lucifer finds them he's going to make them sit down and eat actual food. ...except for the kitchen ingredients aren't restocking due to summer break and so this month, everyone gets a pass. The future, however, is full of good food.]
You needn't be so formal with me, however. Just "Lucifer" is alright.
[Calling him "mister" makes it seem like he's ancient, which he is, and he definitely looks the role considering his grey tips and the laugh lines on his face, but... He's not a "mister" and he's definitely not a boomer who doesn't understand technology like roombas, okay?]
no subject
[ Just "Lucifer" sits a little better with Minato too, for familiarity's sake, but he knows to separate himself from that. ]
...I used to know a Lucifer, who fought by my side. Or, at least, a manifestation of people's perceptions. But I probably wouldn't be alive today if it weren't for him.
[ The Lucifer he knew was powerful and awe-inspiring. The man that stands before him now is also that, but in a much much different way. ]
no subject
Anyway what the fuck do you mean there's another Lucifer somewhere else hold on—]
Ah, is that so?
[WHO'S THIS IDENTITY-STEALING BITCH?
Says Lucifer's brain, while his face very calmly and levelly replies,]
When you say a "manifestation of perceptions", is it fair to interpret that as... ah, how to word it... A tulpa, I suppose is the word, though one created through the thoughts of multiple people instead of just the one?
no subject
[ Rokkun aside, he doesn't count ]
no subject
I saw, in passing, Elizabeth using one of these creatures at the fundraiser from last month, though I neglected to ask her further questions about it given that I was also working at the time. Or... I'm assuming that was a "Persona", anyway.
[He can put two and two together, or he thinks he can anyway.]
no subject
Was it a cute one?
[ Like Jack Frost, or Pixie, or Thanatos. He already has options in mind. ]
