September Event
Autumn Semester
✽ School starts up again on August 30, and club supplies resume being replenished at the start of each week.
✽ All character run clubs survive the vetting process. Maya gives the jar of dragonflies to Hiro, who hot potatoes it to Nao, who opens the jar and sets them free outside. Maya will also tell Add that if his club damages any more of the school, she will shut down the Robotics & Programming Club. The cultists are delighted with their gifts and play rock-paper-scissors to determine who gets to keep what.
✽ The science club is shut down and disbanded due to their club project being interrupted and therefore incomplete, and the door to the lab will not open to any student. The club may be reinstated in the winter semester, and will be open to all students regardless of grade level.
✽ Posted all around the school are colorful posters painted by somebody who has no sense of color theory nor any idea what racoons, manta rays, or zebras look like. They advertise the student store, and its newest attraction:
✽ There is now a gacha machine set up outside the student store, which only takes tokens provided by the shopkeeper. Tokens are 1000 yen or 10 merit points each, and 99.99999% of the prizes are normal boring rocks, but there is a miniscule chance of winning rare gemstones. If you return 100 empty gacha capsules back to the shopkeeper for recycling, they will give you one free token.

Setting Updates
✽ The right fourth floor hallway will be cleaned up during the first few days of school, with the gorinto rocks lined up against the walls on either side, and enough structural support is done so the hallway is in no danger of collapsing.
✽ The rooftop on the right side of the school can be accessed via the stair up from the end of the fourth floor hallway. The rooftop on the left side of the school can be accessed via the windows on the fourth floor, where you have to lean out the window and pull yourself up somehow. The two halves of the roof are separated by the clock tower, and there is no railing. There are concrete dividers sectioning out part of the right side into what may have once been a rooftop garden.
✽ Touching the track for more than 2 seconds results in permadeath. If you're able to jump over the track to the field, the grass is lush and green, although it gives more than expected, like a lawn after rain.
✽ There are six ball courts with height-adjustable poles for tennis and volleyball. Very old, falling apart equipment can be found in storage in the auditorium, while brand new ones can be purchased from the student store. The courts are surrounded by 10-foot fall chain link electric fence both between and around them, with a voltage high enough to cause severe burns to death, depending on the duration of contact. Electricity flows through all parts of the fencing except the door handle on the side of each court to enter.
✽ The indoor swimming pool contains separate girls and boys changing rooms, each consisting of 5 changing stalls, 2 showers, a bathroom, and 20 small lockers that do not come with their own locks but you can purchase one from the student store. Swimsuits, floaties, and towels can also be purchased from the student store. The pool is 25 meters by 25 meters, with a shallow end of 3 ft which then drops precipitously towards the deep end, where a flimsy diving board is set up. The deep end seems to continue down for thousands of meters, with light quickly disappearing and pressure becoming immense, and there is no bottom. The water is held at a constant lukewarm, and is very very slightly tinged pink. It tastes strongly of saltwater. The only windows are located on the ceiling like a skylight rather than on the walls, and lights shut off at 6pm, so it is pitch black after sundown. The pool is always open.
✽ The dormitory is open to be moved into, with rooms assignments being ICly first come first served. There is no Resident Assistant in charge. It's a lawless land. Please use the toplevel below for sign-ups.

Autumnal Equinox
✽ September 23 marks the autumnal equinox. Like during the Vernal Equinox, students spend the week cleaning the school and gorintos are set upon the windowsills. Touching a gorinto causes the character to fall into a trance and experience the moments prior to death of the person being honored, up to and including the death, with all the physical and emotional pain that comes with it.
✽ On the morning of the equinox, red spider lilies bloom all across the courtyard and deep into the forest seemingly overnight. From the clock tower or rooftop, characters are able to see the forest surrounding them on all sides is entirely covered in the red flowers up to the crest, as if the entire land were awash with blood.
✽ The wisteria tree starts to shed petals, only a handful a day and impossible to notice compared to the hundreds upon thousands of petals held aloft by the tree, if it weren't for the fact that wherever a petal drops and touches the ground, the grass and flowers in the immediate vicinity are all dried up and dead.
✽ The void continues to grow, expanding outward and reaching up into the floor above.

OOC
✽ Characters in classes 1-B, 1-D, 1-E, 2-C, and 3-E (classes who rose at least one rank in August) find that in the void school, they can start to see the void students' faces instead of them being completely shadow. They look scared, angry, resigned, anything but happy.

...That guy... [shakes his head as he leans away,] why'd you end up doing that in the first place, knowing how he was?
no subject
[she pauses. the cat reminds her of the one back home, that always gets itself into trouble... she idly pets it.]
I never met evil people before here. I wasn't ever taught how to deal with people like that. So, I'm still trying to figure that out.
no subject
[Dito, the guy who accused him of murdering Chihiro on the network months ago randomly. The guy who's a little too enthusiastic about killing people and getting tallies, given their conversation on the network last week. Frankly, Noah's tired of the guy.]
Maybe it's not the same thing, but what did you do if you saw something in the newspaper like... um... someone robbed a bank? Or some other store? Maybe those people aren't "evil", but they're still bad people.
no subject
But, villains are just the way they are 'cause they're selfish, or lazy, or they have no friends. That's why they never do anything too bad... The people here that are evil are just evil for no good reason. They just destroy people for fun.
no subject
[And if the evil people Noah's met were lazy, they wouldn't have gotten as far as they did.]
When I "dealt" with evil people back home, it was always a battle. [One of the shadow cats nearby hops up onto his shoulder at that, like an idle comfort.] Talking sense into them never worked. Evil people think what they're doing is just the right thing to do and won't budge on it. Bad guys are just... people doing things they shouldn't do, that they know they shouldn't do. I guess I don't know how to deal with either type of person.
no subject
[instead, fate chose her. what's the opposite of survivor's guilt.]
no subject
Honestly... I feel the same way. If my brother were alive instead of me, and he got to come here, he would've fixed everything a long time ago. And maybe back home, the El wouldn't have exploded and I wouldn't have been caught in the aftershock five hundred years later.
[howoldisnoah.png]
Harque would've solved everything here. Without violence. Because that's all I know how to do — he was better.
no subject
Your brother sounds... [kind, she thinks.] Some of your worlds aren't very nice to kind people, are they?
no subject
Yeah. When I was a kid, I was naive, and I thought the world would always be kind. So much for that. [Grunts, and then,] What's it like coming from somewhere... you know, good?
