CAMPUS WIDE EVENT: SNOWED IN

[intercom_voice]

[Early morning on the 15th, the building is deathly chilly as well as unusually dark. Even with the heat on people will find themselves wandering the halls and shivering, their breath fogging up in front of them. Anybody foolish enough to try and leave the building will find that the door simply won't budge due to the amount of snow piled against it, and any attempts to exit (or look) through the windows will greet them with a daunting wall of white. Even the courtyard is inaccessible, as is the door leading up to the rooftop.

Outside on the island, it seems a heavy snow storm has blanketed everything in a thick layer of white.]

((ooc: The event will last 7 days, with the first 4 being snowed-in, the 5th being a blizzard, the 6th another snow-in day, and the 7th having the snow melting. A post will be made on the 19th and 21st respectively. You can see the conditions here, and on the weekly weather sticky:

15th Wed: -32~-20°F; 20 mph; SNOWED IN
16th Thurs: -30~-23°F; 26 mph; SNOWED IN

Mingle, tag around, make your own posts and most of all--have fun! If you have any questions just contact the mod account. Characters with magic powers or a lot of strength CAN get through the doors, but those doors won't stay clear for long. The snow is VERY heavy.))

The other term for them is a 'game center'. It's a place full of games you can't find anywhere else. Fighting games, racing games, even some where you can win prizes. They're kind of fun when you're with other people, but it's boring going on my own.

[He doesn't answer that 'when'. As far as he's concerned, it's an 'if'.]

[obeytherod]

Huh. That actually sounds like it could be fun.

[Huffing, he watches Ryou's hair rustle from his breath.] I'm so sick of this place. I want to go places...and do things. I want to be free!

[fluffydeathdealer]

Now, now... [Lifting up a hand, he entwines a strand of Malik's hair around his finger, playing with it.]

It'll be alright. We'll get out of here. You just gotta make the most of the time you have free here and try not to fret over it.

[obeytherod]

Once all this snow clears... I'll start looking for a way out of here again. I've been spending far too much time relaxing, and not enough time actually getting things done.

[fluffydeathdealer]

You're a hard worker... but, Malik... don't work too hard, okay? If you get too stressed out by it, we'll all suffer from it.

[obeytherod]

I'll be fine. The faster we get out of here, the better.

[fluffydeathdealer]

...

[Ryou ignores those words entirely. Any honest answer would just infuriate Malik, and he doesn't have it in him to lie right now. Playing with Malik's hair idly, he closes his eyes.]

I'd almost forgotten the snow... you're too distracting.

[obeytherod]

I haven't.

[Malik contemplates pushing Ryou off so he can sit up, but even if he does that, he doesn't have much he can do in this weather.

Instead he just sighs. As bored as he should be, he felt too comfortable to have it get to him. Maybe he'll take a nap...]

[fluffydeathdealer]

[Of course he hadn't... Malik was so single-minded. But there wasn't anything he could say or do to help.

Instead, he just stays there, enjoying the comfort of the other teen's body, if not the iciness of Malik's attitude. Sometimes that guy seemed more freezing than the snow...]
