[EFFECT ROOM] whoops we left the background music on

[roadroller]

[After hanging around in this room, your character may find that their actions now come with their very own soundtrack! The music is all around and appears to be coming from nowhere. But it is definitely following you, and everyone in your midst can hear it. Also, the song may shift in tone depending on the atmosphere or mood of a situation!

As for how long it lasts - who knows? Maybe it'll be 20 minutes. Maybe it'll be the rest of their miserable life.]


(( in this post, incorporate the OST from your canon into your threads, especially your character's theme music! Though if your character is an OC or from a book or something, feel free to use a fst or create theme music on musicshake. -warning the link is addictive. Or you could just torment your characters with awful pop songs instead. y'know, whatever! ))

[Lisa stands in the doorway, watching the man nervously.]

Um, you're breaking into peoples' rooms. They're not going to like that...

[screwmoira]

Tch, it's not like I'd be stealing anything. I'm no thieving raider. What on earth would taking what isn't mine bring me, anyway? Certainly not joy.

[He takes once last glance inside, before he leaves it and continues on in the hallway.]

Not here either...where the hell is she...!

[not_tomorrow]

I told you, nobody knows! We only ever hear her over the intercom.

[Persistently, Lisa trails after the newest 'student', pausing only to brush blood hair out of her face.]

[screwmoira]

[He catches the weird sight as he turns towards her, though he doesn't think much of it, and figures it was probably just the light playing tricks on him.]

Say... [His brows furrow as his stare hardens.] Why do you feel the need to keep following me?

[not_tomorrow]

[The nurse catches up to him, panting a little. Heels aren't very easy to run in. She reaches out to grab him on the arm, just in case he felt like trashing someone else's place.]

Um, I just felt like you should take a look at the rules and an explanation of this place. A nice girl wrote it all up one day. It might explain all the questions you have that can't be answered by anyone else.

[screwmoira]

Hmph, I already saw it.

[Or well, more like took one glance and saw the part where everyone was kidnapped. But, details.]

There's nothing to ask, not especially for a disgusting cage of a place! [He jerks his arm away as he suddenly brandishes his black sword, and points it just a few inches away from her face.] Now, either you leave me be, or I will personally send you to Thanatos if you continue to get in my way!!

[not_tomorrow]

[The dead should already be in Thanatos's lair. But this one seems to be an anomaly, forced into a half life, half death by some external force.]

I just don't want you to ruin things for others. You're not the only person to live here.

[Lisa protests, fatigue settling over her as she fought to help. It would be so much easier to let him bang his head against every obstacle, but as a nurse, Lisa couldn't stand for the idea.]

Please, calm down. Getting angry at everything isn't going to help anyone.

[screwmoira]

Ruin? You misunderstand me- I will free everyone and take back our futures.

[Strangely, the black sword doesn't react, and Elef takes note as he feels the pensiveness coming from it.]

Ohhh? Then tell me, what else are we supposed to do here? Because sitting here like ducks and waiting until the day we turn to dust is hardly of a befitting life.

[not_tomorrow]

Um I really don't know. When our captor speaks to us, it's through the intercoms.

[In an attempt to be helpful Lisa points out the various intercoms that supposedly monitor the behaviour of the 'students'.]

Other then that, she tends to leave us to our own devices. My name is Lisa. I normally stay around the clinic with the other Lisa there. We just patch up people who need it. That, um, comes up a lot more frequently then you might expect.

[screwmoira]

[Elef looks up and glares as his lips curl in disgust. Honestly, those intercom things felt like a modernized version of a god looking down on them.

Not that it lasts for too long, as the next thing he hears, his eyes widen in surprise.]

So, everyone's left alone and people can get hurt a lot?? Hrm, surely there's much more, is there?

[not_tomorrow]

Nope, sounds like you've got it all. I know you're angry, but it's not too bad. When weird things aren't happening, it's kind of peaceful. Maybe we'll all come out of this actually having learned something.

[screwmoira]

Either that, or learn nothing.

[awkward cough]

Er- Lisa, was it? Thanks for the info.

[not_tomorrow]

You're very welcome.

[She looks visibly relieved that he's not threatening to cut her in half or try and set the campus on fire.]

I know the other nurse isn't very helpful. [Her voice drops to a conspiratorial whisper.] I don't think she's allowed to do so. [And back to normal tone.] But she's a lot nicer then the cafeteria lady. Oh! That reminds me! If you ever get hungry, make your own food. Some people here still seem to. It's really weird. But the food that Edna makes usually gets people sick. So don't try it unless you have a really strong stomach.
