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/ )

she nods, without really meaning it.]
... Thank you. [pauses] I'll... try. To be better.
no subject
( and if she has to tell her senpais that they need to apologize too she is going to be so goddamn disappointed. )
no subject
... Am I supposed to apologize to that shopkeeper or something? [pause] Everybody's falling over themselves to defend somebody who, at best, is just using us for money. At best.
no subject
no subject
They weren't listening... Nobody ever listens to me until it's almost too late. Everybody's fine with acting like they care about what I say until I say something they don't like.
no subject
( she's not budging on that apology though- and don't think she hasn't noticed that you've changed the subject, young lady. but she'll circle back to that shortly. ... is this how her mom felt, when she was younger? )
no subject
[which is why her voice didn't break there. that was just the wind. the dorm wind.]
no subject
( nene gently lifts stephanie's chin to look up at her, speaking softly all the while. )
He was extremely tired, and doesn't like being mistreated or accused of things because of something outside of his control. Subaru is protective of his friends. No one likes being yelled at. And you... you want to be heard. But so did everyone else. A lot of things clashed tonight, in a bad way. It doesn't mean that people don't love you. It just means they wanted to be heard just as badly, and all those voices together made a bad sound.
no subject
... I'm sorry I don't believe you.
no subject
I'm telling the truth, I promise. We'll get through this...
no subject
no subject
( and if she can at least get a foothold in that, she can lead stephanie out from this train of thought. right? )
no subject
I know you do... You want me to be better. That's what people who love each other do.
... I love you a whole lot. As much as I'd love a blood sister, I think.
no subject
( tuck the stephanie under your chin for best hugging capacity. )
I'll stay with you until it's time for bed. Okay? But if you want more hugs... orrr a snack, or anything at all, come get me, okay? Me and Noah will look out for you.
no subject
[was that a joke? it kinda sounded like it was supposed to be one. she's trying. she really is tired.]
I still go to bed at 8:08. I'll probably even fall asleep then, this time.
no subject
( but even if stephanie sounds tired, it's not 8:08 yet, so nene stays, holding her close still. )
no subject
My uncle makes me cocoa. It's pretty much the only thing he can cook without burning. [a pause, and a very slight laugh] Most of the time.
no subject
no subject
I haven't seen my parents since I was eight. I went on a train to visit my uncle for the summer. And then there was just never another train.
[but, of all the things she's said tonight, this is the one she sounds the least sad about.]
no subject
... I won't leave you. And if you go somewhere, I'll wait for you to come back. Okay?
no subject
I'm not leaving. I promise.
no subject
( ... there's more they have to talk about, though, in the near future. but for now, nene's there to hold her little sister, until it's time to go to bed. at which point she'll tuck her in, kiss her forehead and go. )
