02/07 - 02/11 School Trip

✽ At 8AM sharp on Monday the 7th, all students are asked to gather in the auditorium to go over the school trip to Tokyo DisneySea; those who decide to stay at school, however, are instructed to attend school as normal and use their days as a study hall or free period. Those grades won't keep themselves up, after all.
✽ Those who are going on the field trip will be given the rundown: they'll be staying at DisneySea for five days and four nights, at the Hotel MiraCosta located inside the park. They'll be lead in lines to the front gate of the school, consciousness wavering as they pass through the open gates, and they open their eyes to find themselves in the parking lot of Tokyo DisneySea, sluggish and drowsy, as if they'd dozed off and had just awoken from a very, very long drive. Characters will have to wait in line for quite some time, with the rate of it moving at an achingly slow 0.00000005 miles per hour (or so it feels) before they're able to get their tickets to the park, a knife, and their complimentary map to guide the way.

✽ Welcome to Disney! DisneySea, to be precise! Made up of seven different port areas, it's a treat for those who enjoy the water—and one for those who don't as well, considering its expansive amount of land-locked attractions. The world is your oyster after you enter the Mediterranean Harbor with its Venetian gondolas and southern European charm, with the American Waterfront to your left and the Mysterious Island straight ahead. Past those are Port Discovery, Lost River Delta, Mermaid Lagoon, and the Arabian Coast—it's probably not doable in a day, so isn't it lucky you get to spend the a whole five days here instead? Characters such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Pluto, Chip & Dale, Donald Duck, and so on and so forth can be found wandering the areas, with Ariel found specifically in the Mermaid Lagoon; the Genie, Aladdin, Jafar, and Jasmine in the Arabian Coast; and Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, Geppetto, and the Fox in the American Waterfront. Get a picture and make some memories, because day light is burning, and it'll be closing time before you know it!
✽ Things take on a little bit of a twist when night falls; attractions refuse to work the right way, shadows seem to follow you wherever you go, and the cast members walking around seem a little more sharp-eyed and sharp-tongued than usual. The food tastes worse, as if it's spoiled rotten, and the water beneath the ports churns unsettlingly. All guests are ushered either out or to the hotel as the clock ticks closer to 9PM each day, with forcefully cheerful goodbyes and perhaps a little more pushing than necessary.
✽ Hotel MiraCosta is a gorgeous experience that's hauntingly devoid of people aside from those coming from Yogen, and even it isn't immune from the chilly atmosphere that sinks in around DisneySea when night falls: you might see glimpses of your home world but empty in the mirrors, or a shadowy figure with a knife poised ready to stab you in the back— and if you don't turn quick enough, that might just become your reality. In other reflective surfaces, like the shine of the floors or the water of a fountain gone still after hours, characters will find their worst fears on full display and reaching out to grab them; falling prey to this will put them temporarily in a fit, as if they're trapped in a nightmare. Other characters can wake them up, but if they're alone... Well, you better hope someone finds you soon: spending too long in the nightmare will have you seeing ghosts of those you miss and those you've wronged before. One will tempt you into going with them to the other side, while the other will make an attempt on your life. The pool isn't safe either: anyone swimming in the dark will find themselves at risk of drowning, feeling as if their feet have been caught by something or someone. Of course, the hotel is perfectly safe and ordinary in the day time, so you have nothing to worry about then! Night-time is just a different matter.
✽ For those who decide to investigate the park after hours will find the cast members remain long after the guests have left, and they make a sport of those who either stay past closing or who trespass on park grounds. Take care out there in DisneySea's version of The Most Dangerous Game— Mickey's got a gun, and he's not afraid to use it. Not every cast member will be out to get you though: the Genie, Donald and Daisy Duck, and the Fox will all help characters who need it... for a price. These can range from the absurd to the impossible to the cruel, though the Ducks tend to be nicer in their requests than the other two.
✽ And those shadows from before, attraction mishaps, and more? They'll still happen, and as the week's nights go on, it gets harder and harder to survive the park. Saw this and laughed, but good news, guys! The staff is here to help you out this time.

✽ Had enough of Disney? You can beg Add to take you to Russia instead.

02/12 - end of the month

✽ Wasn't that fun... With everybody reenergized after the school trip, classes continue as usual. Math is tough and philosophy is confusing, but after a gloomy overcast January, the sun is shining this month and it becomes harder and harder to resist just walking out the door and into the woods and never returning.
✽ Those who escape reality by running away from their problems will find that they are able to step past the tree line for the first time this school year, and that they can continue walking without bounds. The forest seems to go on and on and on without end, gradually sloping upwards the further away from the school but never seeming to reach a crest. Eventually, you may come across a river that runs nearby the school, shallow and calm in places and wide and rushing in others, with little piles of rocks along the riverbank as if of somebody trying to stack rocks as high as they can go. Scattered about the forest, characters may also come across much larger rocks, bound with rope and spread just far enough apart that you are able to see the next one when standing by the first, if you know where to look.
✽ Quiet and peaceful, the forest is otherwise full of life if you pay attention: you can hear the chirping of birds, small critters scuttling through the underbrush, the distant howl of wolves. If you're very still and quiet, you may be able to see some of the wildlife, and those that hunt them. When night falls, you may see little pinpoints of light floating around past the trees; they would be easy to mistake for fireflies if they did not glow a faint blue, the same shade as the flowers of the wisteria tree, and upon closer look appear to be butterflies fluttering low to the ground, feeding upon rotting carcasses and pools of blood.
✽ The trees are pine trees.

✽ At the end of the month, even if you've decided to go feral and live in the woods, all characters will be pinged on their PDAs:
     @ everyone
       Thank you. Your tuition has been collected.
followed by a list of names, which includes unlisted npcs but they don't get names so you just have to imagine.

OOC

✽ The park and hotel are completely normal during the daytime; it is only when night falls that it becomes a ...twisted wonderland.
✽ All characters will be forced to leave the school trip and return to school by evening of the 11th through a death in some way. Dying early returns you to school early, and if characters do not take care of it themselves, they will be taken out by an adorable Disney mascot or a Russian with a glock.
✽ Everybody participating in the school trip will find +1 tally on their left wrist upon returning to school. Characters who help others return by murdering them will receive +1 tally for each kill; please let the mods know so Alice can update the tally list.
✽ There are a couple of things to find inside the forest, so if your character is doing something or searching in a specific way that isn't blindly wandering, hit up the questions toplevel to see if they come across anything.
✽ Tuition has been collected. Don't worry about it.

[aka the general rides thing... subaru is excited to take on all the park places!!!! please take him places he's a dog who needs to be walked and he Will grab onto anyone he does or does not know to plead with them to go someplace fun. he has never been to disney sea and he wants to make the most of it.]

✨ b. twunderland

Ooh~, talk about a spooky place after dark...☆

[because Someone likes to break into places he shouldn't be and sneak around with his phone flashlight, he's creeping around the various areas of the park and ducking when he sees anyone -- it isn't that he knows the employees are rightfully dangerous once the sun goes low, it's just that he figures he'll be escorted off the grounds and he does not want that ☆

feel free to join him, he's generally useless in a fight but he does have a knife and he does know how to use it thanks to meng yao in a pinch! but let's practice stealth!!!


maybe we can get some fears in here too. hell yeah]

✨ c. yearningland

[...

it's a little unusual, isn't it? that subaru seems to be avoiding the pool the entire week. he hasn't gone shirtless once, despite claiming to be so excited he could strip. he just keeps staring at the body of water during the day.

buuu uu uuu... buuuuuu....]

...

[buuuu uuuu...]

✨ d. walland

[scritch scritch

...

scritch, scritch

...

there's something in your walls.]

✨ e. wildcardland

[FLOPS DOWN for literally anything else... this is mostly for disney there's some forest stuff i'm gonna do with planning but yes!!! subaru's also venting, so if you want him to crawl under your floors he's also doing that. maybe he'll pipe up his own opinion on the conversation.]

A for AAAAA that's what they'll be doing

[gatetohell]

Yo, Sabaru!!

[ Joe appears seemingly out of nowhere next to Sabaru, putting an arm around his neck in a friendly way. Real dog meet dog energy in Disney today. He's got a big, excited grin on his face, and he points to a nearby ride. ]

Let's go ride Journey to the Center of the Earth! I heard it's crazy!

YESSSS TIME TO SCREAM!!!

[starrypoint]

[! subaru is not into physical contact unless he initiates it, so he stiffens a little but he'll throw his arm around joe's shoulder!!!]

I'm game! The movie was soooooo cool, I bet the ride's gonna be wild!

[even if the line's gonna be the worst part LET'S GOOOOO]

b.

[filialdeception]

[ ...Yes, he is good at staying uncovered, but when he spots Subaru and comes over to his hiding spot, he has words to say. ]

Akehoshi-xiong, you should be more careful. Going by yourself in a place like this may end up putting you into a difficult position.

[starrypoint]

[!!!]

Maimai~! [his "trying to stay quiet" puts his volume at people's normal level.] I couldn't help myself~. I've always wanted to see what parks like this were like after-hours, and the answer is Super Creepy...

[but in a cool way. he definitely is happy to have a companion though]

Sorta like a horror movie. ☆

[filialdeception]

[ Which is far too loud in the current environment in his own opinion. Though he himself has always been rather soft-spoken, even in situations where it's not required for him to be so. ]

I've never been to a 'park' like this before, but I had wondered if there was anything worth finding after-hours.

[ Beat. ]

You sound rather cheery about the fact that it has a horror aspect to it. I should hope it is because you like the genre instead of being attracted to the dangerous part of it...

d!!

[jokey]

[...Scritch scritch? Is there a rat scurrying around in the walls? Could it be the infamous Michael Mouse himself?

Sitting up, Akira turns to address the wall.]

Yes?

[State your business, rat!!]

[starrypoint]

[oh, that is not a voice he knows! that's a new friend!]

Do you think it'd be better for Kimiko to marry her late-sister's husband or perform a ritual to bring back her own flame from twenty years ago?

d

[dokkans]

[ . . . . . .

Bonnie immediately heads over and, trying to trace the source of the scritching-- lightly knocks on the wall. ]

[starrypoint]

[oooh, a game... subaru'll scratch at his spot again, but he'll move a little over to see what the other person does next.]

| D | Sorry Subaru |

[devouringdeep]

[He's been on edge this entire trip, the hallucinations and dangers of the visit to this godsforsaken amusement park doing wonders for his already deteriorating psyche. He hasn't slept, he's pacing back and forth, and suddenly there's scratching sounds coming from the walls.

It's that damn Mouse again. He must have followed them back from the park proper.

He stills in his pacing, listening for a few seconds of time before there's a dagger materializing in his hand and he's throwing it into the wall. It pierces the drywall and embeds itself in the frame beyond, probably at eye level with Subaru's wall-dwelling self but simultaneously not close enough to actually pierce him or do any damage.]

this is the first of a promised two times thank you

[starrypoint]

[the scratching stops.

subaru's frozen, staring at the dagger from the side, and he quietly drops into a squat as he contemplates his move. on one hand, there is a sense of thrill with this danger. on the other hand, since subaru can't tell who's room is who's this is a very dangerous game of russian roulette.

... ... ...

he takes off a shoe and uses it to scratch at the wall a little ways away from his current position. this way, if it strikes true this time, he'll just bemoaning a shoe and not anything else.]

B!

[silentabyss]

[Noah who got accosted by Minnie Mouse minutes ago for existing after hours like: Subaru what the fuck.

He sees Subaru in the distance because Noah is a catboy and has night vision well-adapted to the darkness, obviously, given just Who He Is as a person, so he approaches quietly using his shadow magic to obscure him and then pokes Subaru on the shoulder like a sneaky little goblin.]

What're you up to?

[:)]

[starrypoint]

[oh my god subaru can taste blood with how hard he bites his lip to keep from yelping, jumping a good foot in the air as he turns to noah.]

Being betrayed, apparently! And exploring around 'cause I've always wanted to do this. ☆ What're you up to, you lightfooted traitor?

C

[rearranger]

[ Ranger has noticed him staring despite his general excitement about the pool and tendency to stare at it without actually going in. That being the case, he'll wait until he's fairly close to it to actually approach.. ]

You know how to swim, right?

[starrypoint]

[subaru, so lost in thought, jumps a little. absolutely not normal from the usually perky boy.]

Yeah! Of course! My hometown's by the sea, so I learned how to from the fish!

[probably. my city for his history.

... but he still isn't going in it,]

It's just nice to sit here sometimes~... And do absolutely nothing while everyone has a super duper ton of fun!

D is for DESPAIRRR!

[waitingforplayer2]

[ Nanami's already on edge. Something is Wrong at this park, more and more things every day. And now, as she sleepily heads back to her room at the end of the day...

Something in the walls. She freezes. ]

H-hello?

CRYING

[starrypoint]

[ooh... either chinana or chinananee, the latter of whom he's met due to roommates. she already sounds terrified. subaru shouldn't worsen it. that would be mean.

...

but he is a trickster. ☆ so he drops his voice lower and speaks slowly, edging into a ghostly tone.]

... Chiaki Nanami... You have done something... unforgivable... Will you... atone for your sins...?

[notsosou]

Waugh!

[There's something in the walls. I'm going to say this is before spending a night here and experiencing the True Spookiness this place has to offer, so it's sudden closeness is startling and unsettling but not oh god am I going to die to myself with a knife levels to him. There's a thud as his back hits the wall, where he was sitting on his bed and going through the list of attractions, and then two more of his elbows as he struggles up to more of an upright position, ears straining to pinpoint the exact location of the noise.]

...does this place have rats?

[The other thing that immediately comes to mind is the crawlspaces centipede has gone on holiday with them, and absolutely no thanks to that thank you.]

[starrypoint]

[YESSSSS HE GOT SHIN!!! THIS GACHA RATE IS SO GOOD!!! subaru's gonna scratch at the wall again, slow and drawn out. like a ghost.]

d bc i promised

[crystallomancy]

( there's something in his walls. natsume closes his eyes and quietly moves closer to where it's coming from, setting down his map of disneysea on the way. he presses his hand to the spot and

that's the smell of burning wallpaper, which is going to be just enough of a warning for subaru to move before a small column of flame erupts from the other side of the wall. he didn't bring a knife to his room because he didn't want to scare nao; he's thinking he might just go back on that now. )

yayay

[starrypoint]

[the smell of fire does give him enough time to move away, the yelp absolutely confirming who, exactly, is in natsume's walls, alongside the whine that comes after.]

Natsumeeee, what was that for?! No one's gonna come into your room from the walls like that, you don't gotta fry 'em!

C

[miirai]

If you want to swim, you should probably do it before you lose the chance to. It's not every day that you get to play in the water at a theme park, sir.

D

[rearranger]

[ nms said i that subaru and ranger had to have to talk about how embarrassing he is so i'm back

It's hardly a surprise to see Komaeda and Ranger together these days. One fo them always winds up finding the other, and this is no different... Well, maybe it's a little different. Ranger has been attached to Komaeda for the last couple of days, dragging him around every single attraction, then curling up with him and watching shows and movies that he'd never seen. If he had a sense of shame, he might be embarrassed by all the clinging he's done, or at least be more considerate. Unfortunately he doesn't, so Subaru gets to deal with that at the hotel but at least he gets invited, no leaving him out.

He's not with either of the two he's sharing a room with right now, which is pretty empty actually, and he's starting to consider what to do when he hears scratching on the wall. Having already been introduced to the hotel's crawlspaces, he's not terribly surprised, but... Hm, which one of them could it be?

...

He goes over to the wall, takes off a glove, and scratches back. ]

Re: D

[starrypoint]

[subaru sort of gets why natsume is sick of him and keigo, but also, he thinks this is so cute and funny and poor rocchan fr. one could say ranger is just clinging to his first human friend and excited to share experiences with them, and

he gets that really, he's the same way himself,

but that won't stop subaru from going the funnier route in thought. for now, though, he perks up in excitement and scratches back, sort of in the rhythm of a song from a movie they'd seen recently.]
