JANUARY EVENT LOG
00:00 01/01
✽ At the stoke of midnight, something shatters on the ground floor in front of the bulletin board, and the entire school goes dark: all electricity gets shut off, all flames are snuffed out, and the sky is heavily overcast to hide the moon and the stars. The only source of light are the suncatchers purchased from the student store, but even those fully charged will start to dim and go out over the next three days.
✽ Nene, Hinata, Noah, Amami, and Komaeda will smell something burning, and if they pull out their PDAs, it is hot to the touch and the casing is cracked, like something had blown from the inside, and their PDAs will not be working. For everybody else, the screen flickers when they press their thumb to their PDAs, and then goes dark again. ...
✽ If anybody was inside the main school building at midnight, I am so sorry, and for everybody else who enters the building afterwards, please watch your step. The appearance and atmosphere of the school has changed to that of the "void school" and can not be reverted upon breaking a mirror. Please refer to the aforementioned link for details about the school.
✽ As of midnight, no npcs can be found inside the school, including the library ghost, the gardener, and the cats. If a character were near an npc at midnight, it would appear as if they'd disappeared into the shadows the moment the world went dark.

??? whenever you guys solve the void
✽ 01/10 marks the beginning of the final semester, and when npc students and faculty will return to school. Of the ~260 npc students enrolled at the start of December, only ~40 npc students return to school, with the other three quarters having their names crossed off the class roster in the locker area. In light of the rapidly shrinking student body, homerooms will be consolidated by year, creating a single class for each of the first, second, and third years.
✽ The countdown in front of the bulletin board has reached zero, and the glass tube appears to have shattered and bled out onto the floor, to nobody's surprise. The mess will be cleaned up by the end of the week, and in its place is a notice for the school trip taking place next month. Please see the toplevel below for more details.
✽ The science lab is now open. Add will probably elbow people out of the way getting here, but he gets dibs on the anatomical model: it is warm to the touch, and rather than being made of plastic, the skin, muscle, bones, other organs feel very much real. He thinks they might be. The rest of the room is set up like a typical research lab, with all the basic chemicals and equipment: a refrigerator, liquid nitrogen storage tank, sonicator, incubator, autoclave, laminar flow cabinet, mass spectrometer, and a high performance liquid chromatography system.
✽ It snows on and off and the sky remains overcast with no sign of the sun all month.

OOC
✽ Please give the temporary locations page a thorough read! The most noticeable changes aside from the usual void school appearance is the scattered void, lack of electricity in both the school and the dorm, and the ability to walk off campus. The setting will remain as is until the characters figure out how to revert the change, or on 01/10, whichever comes first.
✽ PDAs will be inoperable until fixed. Tech-savvy characters may realize that the PDAs are powered through inductive charging, and the first step to getting them (also electrical appliances and hot water) to work again is to locate the generator.
✽ All npcs will be ICly unavailable until we unvoid the school.

[ Not the years worth of food discourse and gossip and 900k words of rokkun x komeada public slowburn... ]
You jerk...way to demand something right off the bat??? We've been stuck in the void for a week!

[ Hold on she needs to finish this text. ]
Can't believe Seiya put us in the void.
no subject
( he's going to walk over to sara so that when they get the first locker, he's going to hand her the cylinder. )
no subject
[ She holds the cylinder with one hand and her pda in the other as Komeada opens the second locker.. ]
Um...maybe someone in the student council? They know a lot about this school.
no subject
( maybe that's not true, though akki is skittish and stays away from people, rokkun just doesn't like people, and seiya... just doesn't like to be touched by people.
he turns the locker. )
This person used to be in the student council, though. Want to play hangman, or should I give you two letters and you guess?
( gives her another cylinder. )
no subject
[ That does actually narrow it down a lot. Antisocial, knows things they shouldn't. Now she has to tuck one cylinder under her arm as they talk. Locker 201... ]
Loners like him need to be pushed out of their comfort zone... It makes me think of Sou, but he wouldn't do something like this.
[ She nods her head to indicate she'd like the second, but she has her own guess already ]
It's someone you know, a total loner, and they've been at this school a while, so they can't be one of the transfers. So...only one of your friends is that standoffish. He was on my list from the other night. The soccer captain.
[ All of Komeada's other friends are social or Add...who could never hold down a student council job in a million years. ]
no subject
( he'll clap, but not for long when sara makes him hold the FOURTH FUCKING!!!! CYLINDER OH THIS IS ILL! so komaeda will be holding this one. )
This is pretty crafty, does Tsukimi-kun like hiding things in places and making people look and/or pick them up?
( since this is a scavenger hunt, okay, let's trot to the next locker. )
...Lots of cylinders.
no subject
I think Sou would love too, but his plans are more...
[ Don't say something mean. Don't say something mean. You nearly killed him you can say something nice. ]
Involved.
[ Good enough. ]
So thats Seiya, Rokuro-senpai and...anyone else? You made it sound like there were more. [ It is a lot of cylinders. She peers into one. ] Chemistry?
no subject
( ... you know what, he gets that.
anyway, dementia erased so that his mind thinks properly, he's going to switch his hands — PROSTHETIC!! — into a different one with claws, so that he can tear a rip in the reality, and we have a tiny black hole following them.
he throws his two cylinder in there, closing it, while sara has to carry her three. )
...Did I?
( he did, but he hums as he taps his bottom lip with his organic finger. huh... how strange. )
You're a smart girl, Chidouin-san! What sort of kids would like chemistry? Nerds, right? ( anyway, anyway, )
Probably blood.
no subject
You know what, he probably WANTS her to be mad. And she is! But she's not going to give him the satisfaction of saying anything. You're right! Void holes are normal! WHY DOES EVERYONE IN THIS SCHOOL GET MAGIC BUT HER!! ITS NOT FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIR! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH ]
You said "others" not "other". I'm not dumb. If it was just Rokuro-senpai you would have said something different.
[ Normal pleasent speaking voice activated. She'll focus on texting Seiya, actually. ]
Chemistry is fine but...blood? Like a ritual in a movie?

S.Kaneko
no subject
[ She's torn between texting for help or continuing to rant. The way he's talking...it almost sounds like he did this? Which doesn't make any sense, considering Seiya was concerned with escaping, but not with working with others. What benefit did sticking everyone in the void give you? Free time? ]
I don't suppose you feel like explaining anything...
S.Kaneko
forgot to do font last time OTL

S.Kaneko
no subject
One more, okay?
Can we trust eachother?
S.Kaneko
no subject
Still...I think you can be allies even without trusting eachother. At least at first? You just need a common goal to reach for. So...I trust that. I trust in your goal. Can you trust in mine?
S.Kaneko
no subject
[ Can't be satisfied by a simple outstretched hand, so he has to teach everyone here something? ]
Well, because I want to be your ally Seiya...what should I remember here? Komeada is talking like we should get ready to leave.
[ She's not sure what puzzle Komeada solved...something with blood? Well, she trusts him, for whatever reason. Blood it is. ]
