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.

no subject
[She brings a hand to her chest, clasping to make sure her necklace is there. It is, and she sighs in relief before twisting her bangs in annoyance. There's still tiredness in her voice as she places a hand on the floor to slowly, and a bit wobbly, get back up on her feet.]
A wolf? Who the fuck-- no, that's not important. W-Who did it...?
no subject
[At this point either Shin doesn't know about the council room murder or does... and finds it suspicious she'd immediately assume a 'who', even though it's standard for these sorts of murders. Either that, or did someone knock her out? It conjures up memories of exactly what impact with a frying pan feels like.
His hands hover a bit as she gets up, standing up himself, but it doesn't seem like she's going to immediately fall over, which is good because it would probably flatten him.]
You look like you're about to keel over... Even if you don't sleep in the dorms, you can still rest there, right?
[If it was still summer he'd have suggested the courtyard but nope.]
no subject
[Killed, she actually means, but her words aren't coming to her properly; slipping her mind like sand through her fingers.]
S-Sorry, I'm fine. I mean, I - I don't want to be--
[Her voice shakes and she forces herself to slap herself awake, to try and steady herself and her words.]
I suppose...
no subject
Ah, we... don't know yet. [Because he doesn't know Noah and Kaede had identified the body fallen off the roof and were keeping it secret for the exact reason Shin should have.] There's an arm and someone fell from the roof... Sh-should you be really worrying about this right now?
[I mean, worrying about the wolf, yes, but... there's not much that can be done for the already dead right now. He doesn't know if they're anyone Inaba knows, either.]
There's already people investigating, so...
[He watches her slap herself awake... he'll do the courtesy of not commenting on he level of fine-ness. He knows he himself doesn't like it...]
They've probably got it handled already... we can leave them to it.
[He says, like someone who's not going to be doing some snooping around himself. He's got that sort of expectant body language of someone intending to go somewhere but waiting for someone else to come with.]
no subject
Even if there are others investigating, it's better to see it all with your own two eyes than to hear it secondhand.
[There's a sternness that seeps into her tone in spite of her exhaustion. Sure, she might not be doing well, physically, but that doesn't mean that she can't be a voice of reason here.]
Plus, if one of the people investigating is the culprit...
