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.

It looks more alive than the tree in the other school, its branches alight with bright blue flowers, but the branches appear so heavy that parts threaten to snap under the weight or drag onto the ground, this is what happens when you eat 200+ souls all at once
no subject
okay good though thank you. i'll make sure to remind alice to prune these suckers whether or not we get kazuki back soon

no subject
i say that but if she sees him in the snow she's gonna let out another small one]
no subject
me like, you tagged into this we're gonna get bonus ac from it
yes she screams a bit. but after her initial scare, kaede will creep closer and... it's hiyori... she presses her lips together and huffs out, shakily coming to kneel down and shake him. what's the cause of death--]
Hiyori-kun...?
heck yeah also im crying he really is the murder practice dummy
...Noisy. ...Eh? Kaede?
[He'll sit up and grab his beanie and pull it back onto his head and try and pretend he's not wincing a little because oh god yeah it's cold and wet.]
W-what are you doing out here?
no subject
Probably the same thing you were doing before you... fell over, I guess. What happened?
no subject
H-hey now...
[Hang on, he can dust himself off, he's not dead... Listen the beanie might as well be part of his head at this point. He swipes his numb hands down his jacket as he stands, tucking them under his armpits after, curled in on himself and shivering. Why does he keep getting himself into these situations...]
M-must have... tripped over something, ahaha. [The slightly better option than 'I got too exhausted', all things considered.] I was out here looking for Rei... It wouldn't be good if snow got in her machinery...
[She's fairly waterproof, especially after getting her more skin... but he had to be sure.]
no subject
It wouldn't be good if you froze to death looking for her either, Hiyori-kun. Here, let's go inside for a bit.
[his hands must be freezing... she'll hold out her own. give one.]
Let me do this much at least, okay? My hands have great circulation since I use them so much.
no subject
R-right... Better to keep searching from a position of warmth...
[He knows his limits... and the costs inflicted for exceeding them. Something about her kindness, it's rubbing him up the wrong way a bit. Usually he's better at pushing the feeling down, but recent events have reduced that somewhat, even as intellectually he can tell himself it's probably just... a nice gesture. They do exist. His smile's only a little subtly strained as he glances up from the outstretched hand.]
We're already heading inside, aren't we? ...Won't make you hold blocks of ice, ahaha.
[His circulation's as bad as hers isn't; which seems a little unfair to him, what with all the typing he does if that's how it works. He's not really considering some other factors, like a history of not getting enough food.]
