CAMPUS WIDE EVENT: THE LANGUAGE BARRIER REINSTATED

[intercom_voice]

[Today, something somewhere went wrong. On the evening on the 15th, any bilingual (or otherwise) knowledge granted by the Campus has simply...disappeared. At least for anybody walking by the North Wing.]

Tja ... det här kommer att lägga sordin på våra studier, är nu inte det?

[Translation: Well...this is going to put a damper on our studies, now isn't it?]

((ooc: So! For the next 5 days (the 15th~20th), your character officially only knows their native tongue. Aka, whatever language they primarily grew up with. They can no longer read, speak, or understand any other language but.

For fun you can even use Google Translate to show what your character is speaking at a glance! Don't worry, we all know it's probably gibberish :P

If you go the Google route, please be sure to put a translation at the bottom. If not, then please take care to specify what language your character is speaking in at the start of every thread.

If you have any questions, just head to the mod plurk or send this account a PM, but most importantly--have fun!))

[Woah wait hold on a minute here, why was Vio staring off into space like that? That was a really, really bad sign and he waves his hand in front of Vio's face, debating poking him. He's just made up his mind to when Vio blinks and speaks.]

Afterlife?

[Shouldn't he have just disappeared? At most, returned to the world of darkness, at most likely, dissolved into light. Could there be an afterlife for shadows? He frowns, mulling it over for a moment and just hanging there. Now it's his turn to check out mentally.

Afterlife... Vio... Luxuries... No Red, Green, or Blue... Hm...

Blink Blink.]

Then we should have some fun!

[brainsoftheoperation]

It would explain everything. The strange magic, for one, and how we're here at all for two. But...

[If that's the case, then where are the other three? And for that matter, why is everyone speaking different languages?

...Not even just that. If this IS the afterlife, then nothing here should be painful. So why was Shadow still hurt by light?

He's just about to explain this, in fact, when Shadow speaks again, causing him to blink a little instead. Well... he can explain in a minute.]

Like what?

[reflectedhero]

[Shadow, on the other hand, is totally engrossed in the idea of partying.]

Ya'll can't figure it out? We didn't get to celebrate our victory or anything, so we should find some food and drink and have a celebration!

[brainsoftheoperation]

[...

Oh hell with it, he can't argue with that. And at least a small victory party would be nice to relax some and help get his thoughts in order.]

All right. Let's go find what we need and celebrate.

[reflectedhero]

[Dropping down to the ground, he crouches there for a moment, thinking. There was still the light problem, but... He still had the blanket, right?]

Alright! You really are the best friend I ever had!

[...and the only.]

[brainsoftheoperation]

[Vio's face flickers a little at that, but is soon replaced by a smile, even as he pats Shadow's shoulder.]

And I always will be.

[reflectedhero]

Now let's go find food!

[brainsoftheoperation]

I remember how to get to the dining hall from here. There should be a larder somewhere nearby it, either inside or out, and a pantry wouldn't be any further.

[reflectedhero]

Then let's go! [Heading for the door, he grabs his blanket and wraps it around himself again. Muttering below his breath:]

I'll break all those lights if I have to...

[brainsoftheoperation]

We'll need to get a lot of arrows for that.

[Honestly, he's not so inclined to go shattering everything just yet, not knowing if it was vital or not, but once he figures that out he might just do that himself.

Either way, once he's sure Shadow's all wrapped up, he pushes the door open and steps out, then cuts a line down into the front of it with his sword.]

There. That should make it easy to find this room again.

[Now then. To the cafeteria!]

[reflectedhero]

I might be able to reach with my sword if I'm careful.

[Even if, being a Link, he's pretty short. There are tables and stuff he can stand on, after all. He nods firmly at the line and follows Vio.]

This place looks... unpleasant.
