how have we not had a proper meeting since OCTOBER

Who: Everyone
When: January 10th, after 6PM
What: it's finally time for another FAMILY MEETING aka info sharing and yelling at eachother session, come and discuss recent discoveries & upcoming plots
Warnings: if there isn't at least ONE attempted murder, is it really a fam meet?

[It's the first day of the last semester, and sometime around lunch a note is slipped into everyone's lockers, as well as posted up in various common areas of the dormitories. In neat, printer-perfect text:]

Transfer Student Meeting
Dormitory Common Room @ 6:15 PM
Don't be late.

[... and that's all anyone gets until the agreed upon time, unless anyone wants to show up early and help Add set up.

Add himself is looking tall & fragment-y today, and by 6:15 PM exactly the whiteboard (that we stole and I assume never gave back because fuck the rules) is at the front of the room with a list of topics to cover. There's extra space left at the bottom for more to be added. His two dynamos are hovering at around shoulder-level by the main entrance, offering a friendly beep! to everyone who enters while they take attendance.

There is also the science room's Add's anatomical model standing next to the whiteboard. It's just standing there and looking creepy... it's fine, don't worry about it.

Once everyone arrives, Add goes over the rules—which are pretty simple, because Add doesn't give a shit.]


Let's try to keep this concise and tolerable. Stay on topic, and speak up if you have something useful to contribute. Take your fights outside if you want to kill someone. Failure to abide by these terms will result in removal from the room.

Like it or not... information is key to surviving this place, so working together as a group is the optimal strategy. Some of you will be "graduating" soon, and we still barely know what that entails. I'm not interested in letting this school dictate my future and neither should any of you, and I don't care if you want to find your own method of escape, but pooling our information will prevent wasted time and effort on dead-ends. If you don't agree with that, you can leave and figure it out by yourself.

We've made it this far, starting from practically nothing. Life or death, return or reincarnation... none of that matters because nothing is an impossibility. What matters is that we leave on our terms. Don't settle for less because you think it's too difficult. We will find a way out of this school.




((~FAMILY MEETING OOC RULES~
- this is a mingle!! feel free to start your own toplevels and threadjack into any ongoing discussions.
- off topic threads (like characters just chatting or bringing snacks or whatever) is allowed, but try to keep it contained. this is for sharing info both IC and OOC, so try to think of future-us sometimes and don't leave 38473645 unnecessary shitpost toplevels people will have to scroll past to find the one bit of plot info they needed or w/e
- if you're starting a new discussion topic, please put something in the subject line to make it easier to find! you can also ping/PM me to have it added/linked in the Official™ topic list below.
- if a new discussion topic comes up in the middle of an existing discussion, please consider giving it a fresh toplevel so it's easier to find!
- IC chaos/disruptions are allowed, but expect appropriate IC consequences. Add is a shitty meeting host and has not banned hangman or murders but like, he can manipulate gravity to throw someone out a window, this is exactly what will happen if anyone starts to annoy him.
- priority to sharing plot info should go to whoever discovered it, so please be considerate of others and ask before sharing something another character has been investigating!))

You'd be best for the trip, I wonder if there's some way to have you venture out... but are you sure you'd be safe alone? Perhaps Add-kun...

( he recalls how he's breaking apart, shaking his head after. )

Do you think the counselor will free you? He's why we can't go far...

[Oh no the compliment gets him in the heart but he knows Add doesn't want to hear Noah's abject shock at the declaration, so he shakes off the wide-eyed stupor.]

If I can get past the forest boundary, I'd really appreciate Dynamo's help. And your help, obviously. I don't know if the PDAs would be reliable if I get too far from the school.

[Noah, receiving the smallest possible amount of praise: :D]

Yeah, I don't know how far out I'd have to go. At that point, I don't think you could see Star Coaster or anything like that. It doesn't shine brightly enough.

[Distress signal: Drawing Add's face in the air, or alternatively, writing HELP]

I'll find out what I need to do and I'll get back to you. We can come up with something more cohesive then.

Maybe. I could ask... I've spoken to the counselor before. I think it was a good discussion, even if I don't really agree with his methods.

[Remembering the lore that Noah is literally the only person who takes the counselor seriously all of a sudden]

He's... is he back now?

...He would never leave this school, I believe.

( he laughs, thinking about how his bad end was the school with no snacks. pretty pathetic, just like all aratas, but it's something to work with. )

I can give you what I know about him, but... I doubt knowing his cat preferences will help.

...Koko and Mimi is what he calls the cats.

( which means heart, but it's super cute when you think about it. )

Mimi doesn't like him much, but Koko always has his attention.

Which one is Koko and which one is Mimi?

[This is Important cat lore, alright.]

Koko's the black, and Mimi is the one we're acquainted with properly.

( that said... )

Apparently Mimi tries very hard to be accommodating...
