... the same as the last.

WHO: Nene Yashiro and You!
WHAT: After a year, Nene finds herself experiencing Spring Break in Yogen again. What's changed? What's the same? 
WHEN: Spring Break ( March 21st - April 3rd )
WHERE: All over!
WARNINGS: references to cannibalism

a. empty exploration 

( a year ago, nene woke up in this school and found herself trapped. and now, she remains still- a little bit older, barely taller, hair longer. still feeling clueless despite everything. she doesn't wake up in class 1-b, anymore. she lingers for a while as she passes it in her wanderings, though- she spent months there, after all. leaning on hajun, or just existing. the cardboard prison she constructed for her ice-breaker game still remains folded up behind a cabinet. hah... at least clamor enchanted it? that's funny. 

nene leaves class 1-b behind, careful to avoid the elevator and the clocktower. she remembers last year sitting in it, leaning against the glass and looking at the forest longingly. but something about the clocktower feels wrong. 

probably all the murder that happened in it. 

be it up or down the stairs, nene wanders still. once upon a time she had looked for mokke. now she knows: there are none here, and that's a good thing. but now, perhaps appropriately, she feels like a ghost wandering an unwanted haunt. seeing another person brings her out of it, and she gives a small wave. time will tell if she'll say hello, though. )


b. crafts, cooking and comfort 

( nene knows the crafts room like the back of her hand- same as the cooking room. just like last time, one can find her going over the stock of the kitchen- they have supplies in the dorm too, and she'll be going over that as well. this, combined with the vending machines, may last their greater numbers- and she can make big, hearty meals maybe... with noah bringing back biblically accurate deer, they have non-human meat for sure. even if it tastes kind of bad. so maybe you find nene half inside a cupboard counting quietly to herself with only the scritch of a pencil on paper as her only other company...

or maybe you'll find her in either the cooking room or the dorm kitchen, standing at a large pot diligently. curry and stews are filling, after all. and they have a lot of people to feed! 

alternatively, nene can be found in the crafts room, once more organizing sewing kits, fabrics and threads. sometimes she's sewing, sometimes she's practicing knitting. all the while, a
music box plays a gentle melody as she works, and she might not notice someone enter right away. when she does, though, she'll stop what she's doing and look at her guest. )

c. new sprouts

( perhaps the best thing about spring is the gardening club can be active again. so members or spectators may witness nene running around with some freshly cleaned pots and planters, or with entire tools. there's a lot to do- the winter seeds have already sprouted as the snow melts, and there's spring seeds to plant too. old potted plants have to be removed if they're beyond saving... and natsume's herb spiral probably needs tending to, too! the bad part is that nene isn't quite looking where she's going at one point, and may crash right into someone. woopsies. nene winces, giving an apologetic look before she ducks down to pick up seed packets gotten through a teacher before break. )

d. wildcard

( shoot yo' shot! nene is still mute for the most part but close cr pre-november may be able to get her to talk while relaxed. she's kinda running around all over the place, and just trying to be helpful. nene is still at 0 tallies and making no effort to hide this, so feel free to notice and stuff! )

[ The last stretch of hallway before they step out onto the rooftop is unsettling; unconsciously, Alice draws closer to Nene, whose small figure is a comforting presence. More than any other place, that hallway seems meant for the dead. He tries not to dwell on it, to focus on the destination ahead instead of such a lonely spot.

And soon enough, his patience is rewarded. Of course, he recalls his first conversation with Nene Yashiro — she mentioned the rooftop garden back then! There's life here, in every little plant beginning to emerge from the soil. ]


So this is the garden! How diligent...

[ Alice lets his gaze wander from plot to plot before it returns to rest on Nene. ]

Those packets you've brought... Is there more to be planted?

I see... You're planning ahead!

[ Alice nods in approval, impressed. It is much more convenient to have everything nearby, keeping any trips back and forth to a minimum. Even if this isn't the creepy void school, where searching for a shovel could end in death by becoming a snack for a monster to munch on... ]

Have you need of additional pairs of hands, Nene Yashiro? If so, you can rely on my ability to carry items from one location to another.

[ Palms open, Alice stretches both hands out, as if presenting them for Nene's appraisal. ]

[ With Nene Yashiro's blessing, Alice's hands are ready to be called upon whensoever their services are required! Withdrawing them, he notes the conspicuous absence of anything like a rooftop shed. Hmm... ]

Couldn't we build a storage shed? It would also be safer not to leave tools lying around...

[ A shed would keep the roof nice and tidy! The materials shouldn't be difficult to obtain, Alice thinks. ]

[ These are reasonable considerations — it makes sense that they would need permission for any construction work to commence. Alice rubs his chin in turn, thinking aloud. ]

So it's like requesting funds for the dormitory building or enough computers... Even if we procure the materials, we can't do as we please.

[ But if they can secure permission, the building part should simply be a matter of finding good DIY instructions! ]

You may recruit me to support any negotiations, Nene Yashiro. Or a petition submitted to the student council to speak on our behalf? I'm sure that I could learn the skills needed to assist with the construction of a shed as well!
