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.

... I feel like if I tell you, "I've seen worse," you might start crying.
[a strained grin] When lots of bad things keep happening, you have to sorta... put how you feel into a box, and put it away for later, when you're all by yourself. If people think you're weak, they'll take you even less seriously than normal.
[and that is why she has been actively trying to deaden her emotional responses for two months.]

[And to think this kid is more jaded about it that he is does make him want to cry. He's seen what that kind of emotional repression can do to people.]
I-if you do that, if you don't feel it, keep it hidden... It doesn't change that whatever happened still did. I don't think it's weak to show that it got to you. What if you keep doing that, and one day you don't feel anything at all?
no subject
You're right. It's not weak, not really. And that's how things should be. [sighs] It's not like that, here. The nice people treat you like a baby, and the mean people use it to hurt you.
... It's fine, though. I'll just go back to normal once everybody is safe.
no subject
I know I just got here, but... I want everyone to be safe too.
no subject
[off-handedly] You didn't just get here. You just woke up. There's a difference.
no subject
[No one can exist on two separate timelines at once, can they? One set of memories have to be completely made up and implanted somehow.]

no subject
[It's something to think about, that alternative possibility.]
I guess we won't really know without some kind of definitive proof.
no subject
... The only real way to learn would be to remember. Even if we were here, if we don't remember... It doesn't really count, does it?
no subject
[This is a "wait and see" situation.]
