ANNOUNCEMENT 002

[intercom_voice]

[Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, you will hear the loud screeching of a microphone through the speakers before it dies down. Not long after, a familiar husky voice blares through said speakers.

Although her tone is somewhat pleasant, she manages to keep her authoritative tone as well.]

Good afternoon. [There's a brief pause.] You've all been quite busy, haven't you? It's, hm...interesting to watch, to say the least. But do keep the property damage to a minimum, will you? It's awfully rude to smash people's property on arrival, don't you think?

[Despite that warning, she manages a soft (if a bit ominous) chuckle.]

That being said, I hope you're all well rested. A good rest means a good grade, after all~.

[There's another burst of feedback before the announcement comes to an end.]

Pretty.

[It's almost as if Ivan knew what to say to get Roy on board. But really, at the end of the day it's not as if Roy was looking forward to going back to that empty room all by himself.

He pushes himself off the wall, shoving his hands in the pockets of his jumpsuit before shrugging lightly.]

Yeah, sure.

[Well...that was...that.]

[ivantheterrible]

You're so predictable. [Ivan says lowly, smirking at Roy as he then turns and gestures for him to follow.]

This way.

[thatcatfrom101]

Whatever.

[Roy doesn't say much else as he begrudgingly follows along, even if part of him is relieved he won't be alone.]

[ivantheterrible]

Hahaha...

[Ivan leads Roy to his room in silence from then on, unlocking the door. Before he opens it though, he looks back at Roy with his hand on the knob.]

Just so you know, I think my roommate is having an existential crisis right now since I cut his hair.

[He smirks, looking a bit proud of himself for having gotten his way.] Try to be nice.

[thatcatfrom101]

[Roy raises a brow at not what Ivan said, but that smirk he had when he said it. But then he remembers the kind of guy he is and it's suddenly not so strange anymore.]

[A wave of his hand.] Ya fucked up his hair, got it.

[ivantheterrible]

I didn't "fuck" it up, I fixed it. ...But regardless. [He turns the knob, and pushes the door open. Inside is that blue-haired roommate of his with a newly found haircut, still sitting where he'd left him.]

Heyy~ Yuj, I brought a new roommate.

[fashionablekeeper]

[Yuj looks up, gold eyes are rimmed in red, which seems to be a constant state for him since he met Ivan, he's clearly not as chipper as he once was. He stands up, all legs at 5'11, lithe and made-up, he tries to smile but it seems more feeble. He keeps his eyes cast down and moves to the side.]

[thatcatfrom101]

[Roy just steps into the room and checks it out before his eyes settle on Yuj, hands in the pockets of his leather jacket. The first thing he does is look the guy up and down, not saying a word until he's done.]

[He glances back at Ivan briefly.] Ya weren't kiddin' about the crises, huh? [When his gaze shifts back to Yuj, he raises a brow.] He's like a kicked puppy, ain't he?

[ivantheterrible]

He actually looks worse than when I left him. [Ivan replies with an amused air, looking directly at Yuj as he says it.]

[He doesn't stay Roy's side for long though, decidedly walking into the room and stopping in front of Yuji. He sounds a little berating.]

You could have at least swept up all that hair while I was gone. [He walks past him, going to grab a broom.]

[fashionablekeeper]

[While Yuj may look like a kicked puppy in the rain, he's still aware of his predicament and looks up from his haze.]

You told me to sit and don't move. I did exactly what I was told to do.

[He snatched the broom from Ivan's hands and begins sweeping. At least he has something to do instead of dwelling on what just happened to him.]

[thatcatfrom101]

[Meanwhile, Roy plops himself down on a chair, making himself comfortable.

He does snicker at Yuj's snippy remark, though.]

Maybe I should come back when you two aren't havin' a lover's quarrel.

[ivantheterrible]

[Ivan scoffs at Yuj's pointed retort.] You're lucky you're pretty.

[He leaves Yuj to his sweeping now as he turns back to Roy. Deciding to take advantage of what he knew of the man he waltz over and deftly stomps Roy in the groin when Yuj isn't looking.]

[fashionablekeeper]

[Thankfully, his back was turned to not see that. He's busy fuming right now.]

So not cool, man.

[He's not referring to the crotch stomp, sadly.]

[thatcatfrom101]

--Guh!

[Roy practically slips off his chair with his hands over his groin, making barely audible groans of pain as he slowly lowers to the ground. He really hadn't been expecting that.]

Yeah, not...cool.

[Even if he's not referring to the crotch stomp.]

[ivantheterrible]

Oops~! [Ivan says with no an ounce of regret as smirks down at Roy and his obvious pain.]

Now, if you'll two excuse me a moment, I'm going to go get changed~ [And with that, he waltzes over to the dresser, grabs a handful of clothes, and heads to the bathroom.

This leaves Roy and Yuj alone for a few minutes.]

[fashionablekeeper]

[With the hair swept up in the dustpan, he turns to find Roy on the floor much in the same way he was when he first met Ivan. He tossed the hair away quickly and rushed over toward Roy.]

Hey, man, what happened?


[He starts to help him up.]

[thatcatfrom101]

[Roy brushes off the help and stands on his own--

--only to fall back ungracefully on to the chair he had been sitting on.]

...I fell.

[fashionablekeeper]

[He's not entirely sure how to take that. Still, he'll be sympathetic even if he's off the mark.]

Do you need a healer or a painkiller?

[thatcatfrom101]

[Roy shoots Yuj an annoyed look.]

No. It ain't like I'm dyin' or anythin', shit.

[He sighs heavily, though that's mostly a release because his balls are still hurting.]

[fashionablekeeper]

[Yuj's eyes widen with and expression that depicts his surprise but he doesn't say what he's really thinking. Wow, this guy's a behemoth.]

S-sorry. I just thought...um...never mind.

[He retreats into his shell just a bit and goes about his business.]

[ivantheterrible]

[Now would be clearly be the most opportune time for Ivan to waltz back into the room, wearing silky button-up pajamas!

He places his Major's uniform on top of the dresser, giving the two men and their awkward atmosphere an amused look.]

So~ Who wants to sleep next to me?

[thatcatfrom101]

[Nah, Behemoth's are big and yellow and far scarier. Still, he rolls his eyes at Yuj. He's normally a little less of an ass, but he hasn't been getting much sleep lately and its really wearing on him.]

Whatever, doll-face.

[Roy's eyes find Ivan when he comes back into the room, not too tired to notice those silky pajamas.

He raises a hand, tired face becoming a bit on the smug side.]

Not it!

[fashionablekeeper]

D-doll? Hey!

[Okay, that takes him by surprise and seeing Ivan in silk, well, he has to look toward his "host". Then he looks to Roy that chimed in with a "not it", which leaves Yuj the only one left.]

I guess that leaves me?

[ivantheterrible]

[Ivan shoots Roy a deathly glare before turning his attention to Yuj with a pleasant smile.]

I guess so~ Don't act so eager.

[thatcatfrom101]

[Roy brushes off Ivan's glare and continues with his smug look.]

Whatever you two do tonight just make sure you're quiet, yeah? I need a good night's sleep.
