[There's a new and old face here in the courtyard. He doesn't seem at all that fazed by his environment or the fact this place has turned out to be on an island. Heck, he still wouldn't be fazed if the campus had turned out to be some creepy castle on top of that. He's dealt with creepy places on an island before and he can sure as hell deal with them again.

That being said, he has just finished up cleaning and keeping his weapons in tiptop condition. You never know when you're going to run into hell incarnate, you know? Gotta keep things workin' and all. He's just put his guns away and is about to pick up his sword when he hears someone. Great, what are they gonna do? Freak out about a weapon? Guess he'll find out...]

Whataya want?

mage_gifted

[Here's yet another new face - and it has to be new, because if you'd seen this man before, surely you would remember. For the fact that he looks like he just escaped from the Ren Faire, if nothing else.]

[Vanyel is currently stalking the corridors, and if he looks distinctly annoyed... well, so he is.

[He can't afford to be away from Haven for any significant length of time, with Randale's health getting steadily worse every day. And as if that weren't enough... he didn't have to extend his Othersenses far to feel the others trapped here too. It's Alunde all over again, it seems -- some faceless abductor dragging people from their homes for no apparent reason, except, perhaps their own amusement.

[And he never thought he'd have cause to be grateful for having been trapped there, but he has to admit... if he hadn't ever set foot in Aliunde, he'd probably be much worse off right now. Cut off from his Companion and friends, with no apparent means of getting home... if he hadn't been in this situation once before, he'd more than likely be panicking right now.

[As it is, he's got enough of his wits about him to lay out the basics of a plan: get the lay of the place, gather as much information as possible. Once he's better informed, he can start working on a way to free his fellow captives and himself...]

morbidmausoleum

[Waking up in a random nurse's office had been just plain confusing - especially since she didn't remember getting knocked out in the first place. The nurse hadn't really been able to clear things up any.

[All Dinah knew for sure was that she definitely wasn't in the Mausoleum anymore. This felt more like... not Somarium or Aliunde. Tredecim Asylum, she decided. True, this place was much cleaner and better lit and there wasn't a single zombie nurse in sight.... but it had the same vaguely unfriendly atmosphere.

[.... Which meant, naturally, that she just had to go out and get the lay of the land. So, after pilfering a pen and legal pad from the nurse's desk and arming herself with a broom handle from the nearest janitor's closet, she set out, mapping the place out as best she could. Nurse's Office, here. Cafeteria, there. And she would lay good money there were dorms somewhere nearby too.] I'll have to check those out later...

[Because if this place was anything like Tredecim, Somarium, and Aliunde... escape will probably be a long, long time coming.]

I guess some things never change.

[She pauses just long enough to aim a stinkeye at the ceiling -and, hopefully, any hidden cameras their captor might have hidden there- the stinkeye, before continuing on, utterly absorbed in her task.]

intercom_voice

[Bet you all missed hearing from the lovely lady over the intercom, yes? No? Well too bad, because she's making her scheduled announcement right now, as indicated by the screeching of intercom feed.]

I do hope you're all enjoying the fresh air. I know how stir crazy some of you have been getting. A little fun in the sun never hurt anyone. Maybe now we can cut down on the property damage, hm? [Her tone darkens a bit.] And the fires.

You're welcome.

[Because clearly she's doing all of you a favor!]

And remember, don't spend all your time taking in the sun. You have studies to get to! "Only the educated are free"~

[The announcement ends.]

lethalheels

[ The sound of heels clack through the hallway. Purple clings to her body. Don't get all feisty, boys. She's packing heat at her hips and by the way there's not a single hair out of line, one could assume she's a sharp one.

It's not difficult to tell what her day job is if you know the signs, but luckily Nina isn't in the mood to get trigger happy just yet. She has a few questions first if someone has a willing ear.

She'll crawl up to any person, woman or man, and speak every so sweetly. Bitter-sweet, maybe. ]

Help a lady out, will you? I seem to have lost my way.

[Hey.

So...

The roof is on fire.

Nero might have accidentally tested out his sword on one of the AC units while revving it, and...

Well, long story short, but Nero set the roof on fire.]

1300ft_freefall

[Alex squints up into the light filtering down between the leaves of the trees around him, looking for the bird he'd just heard making an unfamiliar call. When he fails to find it after a moment, he gives up and returns to the task at hand.]

( Warning: blood and mild gore )

Current Location: the jungle

perpetuallyexposedchest

[Very much annoyed that he mysteriously can't seem to exit the room he entered for some reason, Miguel lets out an annoyed grunt.]

Que suplicio- What now??

[This room is very odd indeed; mounds of random junk littering the floor against the walls and in all four corners of the large space. In the middle of the junk-filled room, there is a table. On that table is a hat. Within the hat are small slips of paper with something written on them.]

[Entrants into this certain room will find themselves unable to leave until they draw a slip of paper and then locate whatever (or whoever) is written on it. The door opens only when the item is brought out with them. Items can be nearly anything; ranging from a puppy to a shoe to a signed copy of the Necronomicon to whatever else.]

((OOC: Players have the option of searching through the mounds of junk for their item (which may take a long while), or participating in a little forced interaction with those other unfortunate trapped souls to obtain what they need to leave. They can help each other out, work only towards their own item, or just mingle with others for the sake of it. It doesn't matter what method they use to get the item or where they find it... Just get what you need! Extra points for creativity in terms of whatever your character must find. It can be just one item or several. For convenience, I'd recommend naming the item that your character must find in the subject-line of your comment. Have fun!))

intercom_voice

[Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, you will hear the loud screeching of a microphone through the speakers before it dies down. Not long after, a familiar husky voice blares through said speakers.

Although her tone is somewhat pleasant, she manages to keep her authoritative tone as well.]

Good afternoon. [There's a brief pause.] You've all been quite busy, haven't you? It's, hm...interesting to watch, to say the least. But do keep the property damage to a minimum, will you? It's awfully rude to smash people's property on arrival, don't you think?

[Despite that warning, she manages a soft (if a bit ominous) chuckle.]

That being said, I hope you're all well rested. A good rest means a good grade, after all~.

[There's another burst of feedback before the announcement comes to an end.]

squeal_like_a_piggy

[Hey- waitaminute... THAT doesn't look like one of the nurses you may remember from your arrival in the nurse's office. Hm.]

[Nonetheless, she soon approaches you as you catch her eye.....]

Oh my; you look awful.

[Anna approaches you in the hallway; wearing a hyper-sexual nurse outfit. One must wonder whether this is the result of Campus-magic shenanigans, or just another highly impractical costume of her own collection.]

[Canting her head to the side; a look of faux-concern on her features.] Have you had a check-up lately?

I absolutely insist that you see me for... a thorough inspection. It's for your own good, really~

((OOC: ANNA HAS OFFICIALLY GOTTEN BORED ENOUGH TO RESORT TO HER USUAL TROLLING WAYS. Note: In case you don't know, this lady is a sadist who gets off on other people's pain/embarrassment- So if you respond here she WILL do her best to make you as uncomfortable as possible- be it through a brief casual prank or something much more sinister. She may get flirty, or put you through some pain, or humiliate you, or all of the above. Therefore, if there's something I just mentioned that you DON'T want your character to go through (i.e- nothing too sexual or no bruising or no humiliation)- please specify. Don't worry about outright gore or anything overly hardcore since she's mainly just in a playfully dominating mood. ~~Unless you desire otherwise~~.))

((Also yes I know I owe some tags which I will get to; I was just really in the mood to make this post. ...Even if I'm double-posting shut up))

[This poor soul finds himself awake in a clinic. He gets up and looks around the clinic once more--a subtle tilt of the head is seen. How did he wound up here? He gets up and tells the Nurse that he's fine. No need to worry. So, he opens the door, expecting to see a full hallway but it turns out... empty? He gives a long stare before turning back at the Nurse.]

Excuse me, but where exactly am I?

[The Nurse simply tells him he's at The Campus and that she hopes no one has to stay here for too long. He gives a small nod. If it's an educational institution, why is it so empty? He gives her a quick thank you and walks out of the clinic, shutting the door slowly behind him and giving a light sigh.

Maybe, just maybe, there might be students around if he looks so he does just that but the more he walks the more it continues to look empty.

There's a quiet laugh from him. This is unbelievable... and concerning.

He find himself asking one thing and one thing only:]

What exactly is going on here?

thenotsostraightman

[Normally, one might count walking into a standard classroom only to find a bright, sunny beach instead to be a very pleasant surprise. But as Tadakuni stood there; blankly trying to wrap his head around what just happened- Only one question plagued his mind enough to dwarf all other concerns.]

.......

WHY AM I IN SCHOOL TRUNKS AGAIN!?

((OOC: Welcome to the Beach Room! Once inside, everyone who enters will suddenly appear dressed in swimwear of some kind. Unfortunately, those who try to leave will find an invisible barrier blocking them from exiting the room for at least 3 hours. So have fun, take a swim, play some volleyball, enjoy the cheesy beach-party music, or find some other activity to occupy your time! ~~Emergency suntan lotion will of course be instantly available for all you beach-goers to avoid a nasty sunburn~~!))

Current Mood: confused
Current Location: BEACH ROOM!

[Dante finally decides to check out the cafeteria and see what the hell they have for food.
As he steps into the cafeteria, he notes that it... it smells like a cafeteria, end of discussion. He decides to check what they have for food here.

It looks like the usual stuff you'd find in a school cafeteria and it probably tastes just like it--not very good but not incredibly bad, either.

Nevertheless, he finds himself about to grab some pizza. His gut is telling him that this is a horrible idea but not matter how disgusting it may taste, it wouldn't hurt someone... right?]

holydemon

[Nero, like most others, was not happy to be here. Upon finding the dorms a few days ago and realizing that they lacked any real sense of privacy, he took it upon himself to use his Devil Bringer to haul a mattress and sheets up to the roof. Nero tucked this bed away in a corner behind one of the entrances to the roof and decidedly called this his temporary "room".

"Home" wasn't a word he'd allow himself to use, but it was here he retreated after the last few fights he'd been in and here that he sat curled up in the sheets thinking of Kyrie back home.

It was pathetic, when he thought about it, but he'd already gone through the whole building. Even his Devil Bringer failed to break down the walls, and there was some sort of invisible barrier keeping him from simply leaping off the roof.

So as Nero lays on his side on the bare mattress, he stared intently at his Devil Bringer. There was a sick churn in his gut as he wondered that maybe this was for the better. After all, if Kyrie and the rest of the Order found out about his arm...they'd likely exile him. Dealing with this place was better than dealing with the pain of what might happen if he went back home, but that didn't mean he didn't want to try...for Kyrie.

Or maybe just himself.]

((ooc: so basically Nero is sulking, oh no! made this post because I have some thread plans, but anybody is free to find him and tag o/ ))

devil_within

Kazuya had never been a fan of hospitals. Even less so when he spent nearly 20 years being rebuilt. The fact he had blacked out in the middle of a fight with his newly discovered brother and woke up in the nurse's office hadn't helped his mood any either. The poor woman attending the office barely avoided his wrath as he grabbed the nearest object and sent it flying through the wall next to the door. Doors were for chumps anyway.

Once making his own exit, he stomped into the hall, looking each way with a look on his face that said he was out for blood, and a glowing eye to match. Someone was going to have a very bad day.

[OOC: I totally blame Anna-mun.]

praisingsun

[As people begin milling around the courtyard they might hear a loud astonished gasp. They might also glimpse a man in a rather....unique set of armor staring up at the sun. His armor is clinking softly, almost like the man in it was shivering. Moments later, he cries out in joy]

The sun! So bright! So gloriously incandescent! To gaze upon its untainted beauty...truly I am blessed by Lord Gwyn for the chance to glimpse such a sight! At long last, my journey's end is within my reach

[The heavily armored and armed man poses, making himself look like a Y. Talking to him is now a thing that can be done but we all know you're staring at this weirdo.]

little_jellyfish

[ Toki wanders around the halls, dumbfounded, looking very misplaced in his clothes which look like they've come straight from feudal era Japan. His friends are no where in sight. In fact...there doesn't seem to be anyone here. ]

This... Could it be an illusion?

[ But that's strange. This is definitely something from the modern era, but it doesn't look like anywhere he'd been before. So who could have made an illusion like this?

He continues his fruitless search, when suddenly he catches a whiff of something good (!!). He follows it right to the cafeteria. Fresh-smelling food! Maybe he'll finally ~~run into~~ find someone! ]

redfiend

[Dante just... stares. How in the world did he end up here? Well, there's no real choice but to take a look at his surrounds and--Oh, hey, outdoors. Awesome.

He looks at the football fields and sighs. Just wonderful, he thinks, of all places you could end up in, Dante, it had to be a freakin' school. Geez...

He simply shakes his head to himself and goes back indoors, trying to evaluate the situation more and ends up wandering around in the process. Let's really hope he doesn't bump into someone, especially since he kind of looks like he just lost his head and doesn't want to show it.]

holydemon

[Today, Nero was unfortunate enough to find out about "unique" properties of the Northern Wing. Worst of all, he seemed to be flat-out stuck in the room until he did what was required of him.

On the wall above a large fold-out table there was a note:]

Please enjoy the cupcakes before exiting the room.

[Underneath, the table was decorated with seven plays multicolored frosted cupcakes, all of which looks absolutely delectable. There was definitely something suspicious about them though, even without the note...]

((OOC: So, the rules. Basically your character can't leave the room until they eat at least one cupcake. The effects are based off the seven deadly sins, and you can interpret how your character would represent those sins however you wish. Here's the list:

Blue Icing: Lust (intense desire for power, money, fame, etc.)
Orange Icing: Gluttony (over-indulgence to the point of wastefulness)
Yellow Icing: Greed (excessive materialism)
Light Blue Icing: Sloth (physical or spiritual laziness)
Red Icing: Wrath (uncontrollable hatred and anger)
Green Icing: Envy (jealously driven desire)
Violet Icing: Pride (perceived/desired superiority and a lack of respect for others)

Now have fun and mingle! ♥ ))

[Taking a moment to peer around the cafeteria, Leo walks over to grab a tray and hesitantly approach the food-counter. Pretty much every option available looks.... equally unappealing.] er....

[Looking up at the rather disgruntled lunch-lady, the German speaks;] Excuse me, ma'am? To be honest, I'm not even sure whether I'm supposed to be here or not... But I can't seem to find the way out, and I was getting a little hungry. So... I was just wondering- do you serve anything here with a little less... well... grease?

[...The lunch-lady merely gives an unamused glare. Leo decides to try again.] I... I don't mean to insult your... fine cooking, it's just--

[Before the rest of the blonde's sentence could even be uttered, a giant glob of... something is suddenly plopped onto Leo's plate.]

................

Is this really..... food..?

[...Whatever it is, Leo supposes it will have to do. With a small sigh, the fighter goes to take a seat and enjoy the free "meal" regardless of it's funny smell.]

((OOC: Well... you've gotta eat, right? Feel free to come and converse with Leo or chat amongst yourselves!))
