Announcement 001

[Whether you're waking up in the clinic just now, or have already done so and are now wandering the halls, a sudden screech of microphone feedback blares over the speakers before fading back out.

A moment later, a woman clears her throat. Her voice is husky and mature, but still feminine, and overall she sounds very authoritative...if not a bit sarcastic.]


Good evening, and welcome to the new school year. I hope your arrival was a pleasant one, last year everybody threw-up from motion sickness, it was quite messy.

[There's a long pause as she seems to think, or perhaps just let any anticipated bustling chatter calm down.] Now, you're all intelligent human beings...for the most part. But I suppose I'll pretend I'm talking to the insipid uneducated masses for a moment; it shouldn't prove too difficult.

[She clears he throat again.] In every hall, you shall find a small intercom. You may use that to ask me any questions after my announcements and "privately" converse. Now, if you head North down one of the halls near the clinic in the Central Wing and keep going, you'll eventually come to either the West or East Dorm Wings, depending on which fork in the road you chose. There you'll find all necessary bunk beds and spare socks.

So, make sure you're all well rested for class in the morning; we wouldn't want to get a failing grade now would we?

[And with that, there's another burst of feedback before her announcement abruptly ends. Anybody who had been wandering the halls will notice a distinct lack of...well, anybody else aside from new arrivals, the Nurse, and the Lunch Lady.

The strange woman over the loudspeakers may have mentioned classes, but the school seemed completely devoid of any teachers to provide those classes. In fact, a lot of things seemed...off.]

[Croc sighs and finally puts her down.]

I think you watch too much t.v. kid. There aint nothin' like that in the real world. At least people don't call stuff that. Just people and monsters, though I guess they're kinda the same thing.

[He let out a small chuckle as if that was his own clever little joke.]

So kid, how do we get outta this joint?

[He's assuming for now that she's stuck here too.]

...What is a "tee vee"? [That question alone probably says all that needs to be said about Nia's TV habits.]

And...I am not sure. I just woke up here a little while ago, Simon and Miss Yoko and the rest of Dai Gurren all seem to be missing.

[She glances around, a worried look on her face as she brings a hand up to lay against her chest.]

You... don't know what a T.V. is?

[He sighs. Okay maybe the girl was just a bit... touched.]

Maybe they're here too. You should go look for em.

[He feels slightly worried about the girl, but he shoves that out of his thoughts the best he can. Its just some random girl anyways. He shouldn't be giving her too much thought. Especially if she doesn't know how to get out. He should just leave her there... but he doesn't.]
postprincess: (hail fellow well met)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-18 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
No! [Said with a big, bright, and beaming smile.]

But yes, you are correct--I should look for them! Hm...

[Nia walks to the nearest door and jiggles the handle. It's locked, but the next one isn't. Unfortunately, it's just an empty classroom.

She closes the door again and takes a good look down the hall before smiling again. It's almost...passive-aggressive.] This is going to take all day.

[Croc couldn't help but smirk a little himself. What could he say, the girl seemed to be infectious.]

Well... hope you can find em.

[He just kinda watches her for a bit, he considers leaving but isn't sure if splitting off from the only person he's met so far is a good idea. It's not often he finds company that isn't going to scream or attempt to hurt him.]

Maybe. Who knows.
postprincess: (hault!)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-18 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[She lets out a heavy sigh!]

Well, I suppose I must start somewhere. It would not do for me to give up, especially not when I know Simon would never do such a thing!

[...So she slowly starts going down the line of checking doors. This becomes a long, and boring process.]

[He watches her go on for a bit.]

Don't ya got a phone or somethin'? You could try callin' him?

[He didn't usually carry one, but he knew most people did... unless she didn't know what that was either.]
postprincess: (...what?)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-18 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
...What is a "phone"? [At least you saw it coming, Croc.]
theydcallmeking: (You dumb er somethin?)

[personal profile] theydcallmeking 2013-05-18 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
It's this thing you can use to talk to people who are far away from you.
postprincess: (hail fellow well met)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-18 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh! Then it is like yelling?

[Perfectly logical leap here, and she looks rather pleased with herself too!]
theydcallmeking: (Default)

[personal profile] theydcallmeking 2013-05-18 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shrugs.]

Kind of I guess? Except you don't actually yell.
postprincess: (You are a pissing-off person!)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-19 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
I see! [She nods her head enthusiastically.]

Perhaps if I try yelling really loud, Simon will hear me, since I cannot call him.

[Nia leans back, sucking in a deeeeep breath, and then--]

SIIIIIMOOOOOOOOOONNNNNN!

[He chuckles.]

Might work, but only if he's nearby.

[Oh wow that was loud.]

You might also attract other people. Dunno if you want that.
postprincess: (listening closely)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-21 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I am aware. [Not meant to be sassy, but...the wording was unintentionally so.]

I was hoping he would be nearby, and if not, maybe it would be best for us to locate others as well. We cannot be the only ones who are lost here.

[Croc scratches the side of his face then looks off down a hallway.]

Unless it's the bastard that put us here, I'm not really lookin for anyone else. I ain't got any friends to look for, and I ain't lookin' for any friends.

I just wanna get back ta Gotham as soon as possible.
postprincess: (I'm not sure about this...)

[personal profile] postprincess 2013-05-24 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
[She frowns a little, looking sympathetic.] Why would you not want friends? Who will you share food with, and talk to, and spend your time with? I think it would be very lonely, and very sad for you to not have any friends, Mister Croc.

[After a pause, and as if she hadn't said any of that other stuff, she sounds curious and cheerful again.] Oh, and what is a "bastard"?

Way to go Croc, Teaching Nia Bad Words 8T

[personal profile] theydcallmeking 2013-05-24 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[That hits him pretty hard, but he wont let it show.]

I been fine on my own so far, why do I need any friends now? I ain't lonely...

[He kind of stares at her for a moment.]

It's a name for someone ya don't like.
