i'm getting a good grade in yogen lore, which is something normal people definitely try to get
Who: Whoever's in the dormitories
When: Friday, October 1st
What: It's time for a little lecture. And a genuine information meeting. But mostly a lecture.
Warnings: N/A please don't make me change this.

Yogen and You: A Quick Summary
Held by Natsume Sakasaki
For those who need a summary of events, whether because our meetings rarely get anything done in terms of information sharing or because you're freshly awakened. Come around dinner time for food, enlightenment, and the opportunity to share your troubles with those going through the same thing.
The room will be locked all day until about half an hour before six, at which point it will become unlocked... this is primarily for Natsume to set up a table of food, but people can come sit in early if they like. There's an overhead projector that's been wheeled into the study hall all the way from school, and the curtains are drawn over the windows. It isn't dark though, since he still has the lights turned on...
Several tables have been pushed together to make at least three groups, chairs around them like they've been readied for a dinner party, while a few more are pushed a little further back and have absolutely no chairs whatsoever; those are for the food. There's also a chair by the overhead projector.
Your food and drink for tonight: lemon and rosemary roasted shrimp, white rice, rosemary and thyme chicken, a make-your-own-salad area with all kinds of salad-making ingredients, three types of eggrolls (seafood, vegetable, and pork), and various drinks from the vending machine because some of us can afford to spend a bunch of merit points on things like that.
When a sufficient amount of people have come in, or the clock hits 6:05, Natsume shuts the door, turns off the lights, and moves to the overhead projector. To stand on the chair, so he's the tallest person in here, and claps his hands to get people's attention. )
Save all questions and outbursts until the END, ( he says, and then kneels down on the chair and flicks the projector on.
All of the slides are pre-written on some transparent sheets that project onto a wall without windows, which he reads one by one without rushing! But for ease of reading OOCly, you can find the entire thing here. There's also photocopied handouts for people on all of the tables, stapled of course, so people who aren't blind (sorry Helena) can follow along at home!
He lets the last sheet stay up, his face half-illuminated by the overhead projector, then sits down in the chair and leans forward the back of it like some kind of delinquent. )
Alright, you can speak NOW.
( ooc notes: go ahead and treat this like one of our meetings, aka mingle, jump around, actually get a chance to share information that hasn't been talked about yet, etc. thank you plenty to enh and peace too for reviewing and suggesting things for the presentation \o/ )

A team needs leadership. You can't just yell at everyone and expect them to do all the work, come up with a plan, and then complain when it's not to your liking. If you can't win by yourself, then start by coming up with a plan where you can win. That, or accept that you'll have to rely on the plans of others.

You're no better yourself... denying evidence presented to you, it's just as foolish as accepting it without question.

You're acting like death and escape are mutually exclusive. That's not true at all. Does it really matter if you died to get here or not? There's no evidence that definitively confirms or denies either possibility. You're arguing over the meaningless details and that's why everyone is so irritated with you.

I don't think you're wrong... but the explanations they choose to give us willingly, that's also a valuable point of data. If it's a lie or if there's truth to it... what purpose does it serve them to tell us these things...?
What happens during graduation? Kekekeke... I'm curious to see how it ends.

Fertilizer. When we were all forced to sit in those chairs, held down by magic... They were preparing us. Right from the start.

Making individuals attack and turn against each other, forcing souls into storage to be reconstructed and placed back in the pen to perform again... mm, I don't think killing anyone is their goal, at least not the final one. The process to reach the endpoint is too complicated for that. Rather... it seems more likely that they want us alive.
Reincarnation could very well be the truth. Shaping a soul for a specific purpose, training it to kill and survive, and only allowing those that bow to the demands of their masters to be rewarded... kukuku, wouldn't it be wasteful to just trash something like that? The scraps that fail to perform would be better suited to such things.
