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 store is 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.

N-No! It's a coast-side city in Japan! It's my home!

[ And... there's the reason for her current state. In the first place, this school hasn't been nice to her, and now she's finding out that there's some kind of exchange student program with her home listed under it. ]
moraloutrage: (much thought)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-17 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Your home? [He frowns and steps forth to give the list a better look.] I- I am sorry. I am unfamiliar with the city myself. So your own city... is being offered for this exchange program?!

[He exclaims in surprise. After all, he thought they were sealed off from their original homes... and in some sort of different world entirely, based on no one being aware of Hope's Peak.]

I do not know what this could mean...!
songstressedout: (Verge of tears)

[personal profile] songstressedout 2021-08-17 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Maiami City, it's got it down right to the spelling as well...

[ Them being in a different world already felt like a given to Yuzu because of how nobody here knew a thing about Duel Monsters. Well, besides Senku, but he seemed to know it in a different way than she did.

But going off of the assumption that they're in a different world or dimension... along with the strangeness of some of the names on the bulletin board... ]


I-Is there something going on with our worlds? I-I don't think there's anywhere called 'Death City' where I'm from...
moraloutrage: (listening carefully)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-17 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
I see... That is concerning. [He continues to look it over intently. He doesn't recognize most of the names, but given what she's said, he wonders if they're the home towns of other classmates. It would be hard to check for himself, though, given that the location of Hope's Peak was an area that seemed to be shared among multiple versions of Japan, even if Hope's Peak itself was not.]

I do not know for sure, but it is likely that Death City could be another classmate's hometown. I do not know why someone would choose such a morbid title for their home, however! [He shakes his head in disapproval.] I thought that we were in... well... a separate world from other worlds. But if that is the truth, than how could this be possible...?
songstressedout: (Worried)

[personal profile] songstressedout 2021-08-18 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Separate world is probably right... but we ended up here, didn't we...?

[ So there must be some kind of connection right? Still, there's also the more likely answer... ]

Or... this is some kind of trick...

[ Like the big red button on the elevator. ]
moraloutrage: (pondering)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-18 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
It... it is quite confusing, to be sure! Would it be like being sent between worlds... and if one us took part in the program, what would prevent us from using that as a way to escape...?

[It's so baffling! And suspicious.]

...But you raise another strong concern. This could be another trick, or a trap. Considering this place, my first instinct is that this will be a method to... to hurt us all over again.
songstressedout: (Verge of tears)

[personal profile] songstressedout 2021-08-18 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe, but...

[ Home... Maiami...

The urge to go home couldn't be stronger for Yuzu. It certainly doesn't help that it's what she's wanted for a long time now, and after finally getting home again... she's ended up here.

She's had enough of all this, she wants to go home already... ]
moraloutrage: (much thought)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-19 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
I... understand. [His shoulders droop.]

The temptation to go home must be very strong. I know that it would be hard to resist, maybe even impossible for me, if my own home was clearly listed there. I would jump at the opportunity to return!

[He offers her a concerned frown.]

I am just... afraid. Afraid that they will not make this so easy.
songstressedout: (Unsure)

[personal profile] songstressedout 2021-08-19 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
...

[ She frowns, knowing that he's probably right. It's never that easy getting home, isn't it?

There's... a lot for her to think about, then. ]


Sorry about yelling so suddenly...
moraloutrage: (at attention)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-20 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
That is alright. It is impolite to shout in a school hallway, but I will not hold it against you. In circumstances like this... It is only natural to react in such a strong manner. I wish I could be more helpful!
songstressedout: (Gentle Smile)

[personal profile] songstressedout 2021-08-20 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, it's alright, I'll be fine...

[ She has to be, she's already spent a good amount of time sitting around scared of everything.

...even if this is a trap, she knows what she has to do. ]


Oh, sorry, I should introduce myself. I'm Yuzu, Yuzu Hiiragi.
moraloutrage: (bowing)

[personal profile] moraloutrage 2021-08-20 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
[There' s a somewhat sympathetic frown on his face. He knows it's not as simple as just choosing to be fine. He knows that from experience! But he truly does not know what else to do about the situation at the moment.]

Ah, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Hiiragi-kun. [He introduces himself with a formal bow.] My name is Kiyotaka Ishimaru!
