We haven't had any meetings since, um. Well. The last one.

Shin is Extremely Suspicious, of course he is. But that just means he noses into the room suspiciously, and hovers avoiding the growing crowd of people and being near the door suspiciously, and absolutely still gets caught because this is basically a cardboard box propped up on a stick for him. He's absolutely kicking himself.]
J-just how much is a 'good job' here?

sighing, nene sits down and just kinda, lets herself deflate. somehow, she feels like this is her fault... ... she remembers when she had started that little game of 'honey, i love you' months ago.
and then komaeda killed someone. and a chunk of the people who'd been there were gone now.
seems like nene's got a lot on her mind. )

If I may say something?
[her voice is softer, hence needing the pause of attention.]
Locking people in a room together doesn't fix issues. In fact, it tends to draw them to the surface. It would be better if there was room for people to walk away should things get heated.
[not to mention that. she really doesn't like the idea of the door being locked.]

( which komaeda agrees, but he doesn't want to be locked in, usually they have the chance to leave when needed, or even pee... where do they pee. )
I agree as well, to confide in one another, don't you think progress will be made?
( he looks towards helena, reaching out to poke the top of her hand so she knows which side he's on. ) I'm sure if someone wants out, they'll get us out.

Of canned food drives and PDAs.
So, at least while we're here, I can talk about the results of the canned food drive. In total, we got 1033 decent cans! Which is just a bit below the number I originally had in mind for us. At the very least, each of us gets 27 cans for the month. What you do with your share is up to you, whether you save them or not, whatever.
We've got an assortment of fruits, veggies, and notably, cheeseburger flavored things. But it is quite the assortment! I did find more... unsavory items mixed in with the cans, and have removed them from the pile because I doubt any of us want to deal with that.
[ At least 10 cans were filled with organs- par for the course here. ]
During the week, you can meet up with me to pick up your cans for that week, because I don't imagine people want to haul 27 cans around with them. Between the cans and the vending machine, I think we'll be smooth sailing for most of the month. I'll be at the workshop a good chunk of the time during the break working on my own projects, so chances are you'll find me there, or you can contact me through PDAs.
[ A good segue to his next point. ]
Speaking of the PDAs, I haven't been able to program any kind of private messaging system on them. Not for lack of trying many different options, either. So, we'll just have to be as subtle as possible still until I, or anyone else can find another way around this.
[ In Ori's words: "Private messaging won't be something supported by the PDAs regardless of skill or resources!" ]
Well, that's all I have for now.
preemptively...
( a murderer who has changed their ways? more likely than you think. )
If you'll have me, I'd like to make myself useful.

Missing Folks
Per usual, I'd like to ask if anyone has gone missing recently. As you all may or may not be aware, disappearances either herald unsavoury finds later or the dead coming back to attack us. In particular, I've noticed that Mona is absent, as well as...
[There's a pause, like he doesn't want to say it, and then a deep frown pulls at the corners of his lips.]
...Angel.
[Would someone be so cruel as to kill a dog? He can only hope that she somehow got back home, but...]

adderstone lending services
So I found one of these by the lockers...
( he's holding up a little rock with a hole in the center. )
Tanaka-kun might've mentioned it during our other meeting, but you can see things you wouldn't normally be able to if you look through it. I've been thinking that those things might be pretty important to helping us figure this place out — like with the groundskeeper in the courtyard.
So if anyone needs it, I'm willing to lend it out. The only catch is that when you give it back, let me know what you saw with it.
( except during the gardener mission, but otherwise? yeah, go wild. )

He eventually stands rigidly and tries to get everyone's attention.]
Greetings, fellow transfer students! I have noticed some new faces around, so I shall introduce myself. My name is Kiyotaka Ishimaru. I am from Class 2-E, and I am also a member of this student council. In fact, it is my own key that has been used to lock that door! While I did not wish for such tactics to be employed for this meeting, I will take full responsibility if anyone is upset about this situation!
That said, I do understand the value of this gathering. While summer break is in full swing, the- the time is right for us to work on getting along better! [It's hard, lately, for Ishimaru. With the losses that have been stacking up, his usual reserves of energy have dried up. But he remembers the friends he still has, and the supportive words of Nene. They can support each other and get through this... and so he keeps on trying to bring as much life as he can into his words. And to smile!]
That is the best way for us to deal with whatever this school may throw at us next. So let's all do our best to come together! Now, where should we start? Should we engage in simple conversation, or play some sort of a game?
no subject
A game... maybe? So everybody can play together. Conversations with more than two people get kinda...

let's talk about an amazing invention called the ELEVATOR
[partly because he wants to know what the connection is and how it works, but also because he's just nosy. tell him about your AU trauma for science.]
I believe whatever's on that floor is replicating people and places from the memories of those inside of it... but it's difficult to reach any solid conclusions with only my own experiences. Also, the events that take place on that floor seem to be distorted. Impossible scenarios, or timelines that are different from our own...

From what I understood, things were "wrong" in each iteration of the worlds, though I will let those who hail from those worlds speak for themselves.
[But he watched a child get mauled to death with Stephanie, and he's pretty sure that's not something that happens in LazyTown, from what he was understanding, given her severe reaction to the scene.]

Is this how it's supposed to go!? Can you blame her for being a little paranoid about being locked in here considering everything else that's happened to her??
