CAMPUS WIDE EVENT: EVERYTHING AND THE KITCHEN SINK

[intercom_voice]

[Hopefully everybody likes waking up outside.

Because as it were, in the middle of the night when everybody had been asleep or lulled into a sudden one by the sheer weight of the air around them...the Campus disappeared in its entirety. Left behind was only the cool surface of the concrete foundation.

For now it seems the residents were left to fend for themselves in the wilderness of the island. Not even the voice from over the intercom would comfort them.]

((ooc: the school has disappeared, along with all the NPCs and everything that was inside! no opt-out areas this time around. The temperature is cool during the day, and colder at night.

The event will last until October 20th, and I'll post a closer to signify it. Everything will be returned to its rightful place then.))

That doesn't answer the question! [He practically barks out the words, his apparent good humour lost to a palpable, deep seated anger as he flourishes his hand out to point at Jayden.]

Your life against the lives of others--pick one!

[leanonstuff]

[His grip tightens on the stick in his hand, a frown tugging at the corners of his mouth. There are no others immediately around them... but that wouldn't stop him from going off after anyone else. Norman can't let another person die because of him.]

I'd save other peoples' lives first.

[stealshinies]

Ohh? [Bakura tilts his head back in a boisterous laugh. That was just what he wanted to hear.] If that's the case, then you would lay down and die for me! Think of it this way, Mr. Effbeeye Agent...

If you tell others about me, they might come after me, but they don't have a chance against a Great Thief such as myself! As a mere mortal I bested a powerful Ka not once, but twice. Then there was the Ka that man summoned to catch me. H-hehehe, well, I think you can see how well that worked out. Even those with the powers of darkness were no match against me!

[He conveniently excludes that penalty game he'd suffered and continues on...] So really...the best way to protect the lives of others is to silence yourself. Any blood that soaks my hands from your confession will weight just as heavily on your conscious and you know it! Do you really want to risk having guilt suffocate yourself?

[leanonstuff]

[As much as he hates to admit it, Bakura has a point. If he's really all that great at fighting, and more than capable of murder, is it really a good idea to potentially send people to him to die? Then again, people really ought to be warned regardless. He'll have to consider the best way to go about it, but that also involves surviving to see tomorrow.]

So... if I don't spread the word about you, you won't kill anymore people?

[He won't trust anything the guy says, of course. Still... he really does have to consider the best course of action for everyone here, not just himself.]

[stealshinies]

I didn't say that. All this means is that nobody comes after me by your fault, which is as good as leading them to their deaths!

[Bakura casually leans against a nearby tree, folding his arms.]

Hehe... I'm not some indiscriminate murderer. Not that I care if I kill anyone, but the Nobody-Ka was the only one I've ended here, and for that I had my reasons. As for you... [He narrows an eye, teeth shining in an animalistic grin, contrasting harshly with his childish words.] I just wanted to see what that "loud sound" would do to a person!

[leanonstuff]

[So much for hoping for a peaceful solution then. Norman is used to killers thinking they aren't the typical murderer... but it's all just grandiose bullshit.]

Sounds like an indiscriminate murderer to me.

[Warning people is probably the right way to go. He wants them to keep their distance, not confront... so it shouldn't be a problem, right?]

But go ahead and prove you aren't. Let me be on my way without trying to kill me.

[stealshinies]

[He seems amused by that suggestion, but there's the usual anger brimming just below the surface.]

I don't care about proving anything to you! I'll let you go--because I like seeing you squirm--but if I find out you told anybody I'll be coming for your head!!
