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.

[This person, Lucifer doesn't recognize them, but that's perfectly fine. Yes, he does look like a shellshocked idiot, so glad to know that Yukio has awareness! Wink wink nudge nudge.

Okay, no, Lucifer's not actually thinking that; more like he's wondering what this person's name is and when he "woke up" here, but those are questions for later. The real question is still, does Yukio want to fly around? Because Lucifer's offering, hello, answer the question, tall child.]


I know this must be an odd offer for you, but I am one hundred percent serious. This school could use something fun to do, don't you think? If you're nervous about flying, I promise to make it enjoyable for you.

[Yukio will admit that he had seen far stranger things in his life than some demon — because obviously, this had to be a demon — with wings jumping off a roof to fly around.

What had never happened before was the fact that he had asked him if he wanted to join him.

That was new.

But this had to be a demon. What else had wings and horns? Angels, probably, but he's never met them so they didn't exist.]


I...

[He usually wasn't in the market to accept requests like this from people, let alone handsome strange demons that he didn't know. To be fair, he wasn't in the market to do anything with just about anyone lately.

Rin had said that he needed to loosen up, though, and considering where they were and the strange situation they were in...

What the hell?

What's the worse that could happen?]


Sure. Just don't drop me.

[Lucifer sure would like angels to unexist. Except like maybe Simeon because Simeon's okay about 1% of the time so that's fine. And Luke's... like, okay too, he supposes.]

I won't drop you.

[He also doesn't exactly say "hey dude, I'm gonna pick you up bridal style now and we're just gonna Go", but that's what he does — scoops Yukio up like a little baby and flexes his powerful wings and just

jumps off the roof

and lets them joyride near the first floor until he finally thinks to send them spiraling upwards in what can only be called the most ostentatious birdlike thing from a man possible.]

[Was he expecting just to be scooped?

No.

Did he immediately wrap his arms around Lucifer’s neck to hold onto him?

Yes.]


A little warning next time would be great!

[Also, perhaps this hadn’t been the best idea, seeing as how Yukio was fresh off of jumping off the roof without a flying bird man a few weeks ago— or however time worked here.

It wasn’t awful this time, though, and once they were up in the air again and not falling straight down he actually relaxed his grip on Lucifer and let out a breath he hadn’t realized he had been holding.]

[Lucifer isn't sorry for laughing. At the very least, it's the laugh of someone who's enjoying himself and finds this comical, not something cruel.]

I think you had sufficient warning.

[He'd pat Yukio on the back if he weren't currently flying around with him. Can't drop the kid now. Lucifer does a few cursory laps to let Yukio adjust to the wind blowing in his hair and past his ears, and then after that?

He does a flip.

Have fun. :)]

[His grip on Lucifer returns and he’s letting out a very small yelp, which he quickly muffles by biting down on his lip since he doesn’t want to inhale a bug. Though the yelp does turn into a little—nervous—laugh that he also stops half way through.

He also might be hiding his face a little bit, but that’s just to stop his glasses from falling and breaking on the floor since he doesn’t have any spares.]

[Oh, but Lucifer's having so much fun scaring the shit out of Yukio! Don't worry, you won't inhale any Yogen bugs... Probably. Maybe.]

I take it this is your first time flying?

[Have you ever heard the Dad Laugh... You know the one. That's what Lucifer's doing.]
emptyembers: (does a think)

[personal profile] emptyembers 2021-09-30 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
Like this, yes!

[He doesn’t have wings, Lucifer. Not everyone is part bird demon or something.

The laugh does give him flashbacks to his dad though. Exactly the dad laugh that Shiro would have. Lucifer and Shiro radiate demon dad vibes on two different spectrums oh no]

[personal profile] carpevinum 2021-09-30 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh no, he knows not everyone has wings, it's why he's offering to fly people around in the first place!]

Well, hold on tight — try not to scream for mercy.

[Don't ask why Lucifer's like this, not even he knows; he flies them both up, up, and up, until he's reached almost the upper limits of how high this cursed school will let him fly — and then Lucifer tucks his wings against his back and shoots them down toward the ground, only opening them again when they're a mere foot away from going splat on the pavement.]

[It's like a rollercoaster.

A rollercoaster without any seatbelts or safety protocols other than some demon's arms wrapped around him.]


You're enjoying this.

[Okay maybe he was having fun, but the tiny giddy smile was just a figment of Lucifer's imagination.]
