Who: Everyone
When: Day 1 – noon
Where: The Auditorium
What: ROUND 1 BEGINS

[Some hours have passed, leaving you time to mingle and explore to your hearts content. However, as the clocks tick over to noon … the bell rings again. And this time, it's followed by the hissing static of an intercom system.]

Ahem! Ahem, is this thing on? Ahh, yes … If all Students and Instructors could kindly make their way to the Auditorium, our first class can begin.

[Those people who are understandably reluctant to follow that instruction may just find their feet moving for them, plodding them into the massive assembly hall. Once they're there, the door slams shut and locks behind them.

… There's nobody there, but the intercom is still on.]

[. . . someone is clinging tightly to the door frame while his feet involuntarily try to drag him into the auditorium]

Not-- this-- time!

[ YOU GO KAITO ]

[ which is to say, your gf is silently cheering you on ]

[HE'S TRYING SOOOOO HARD]

[. . . but as much as he clings, his fingers slip free eventually, and he stumbles forward with a loud curse]

Damn it--

[ And the moment he does, her hand (her free hand; the other is wrapped firmly around the hilt of the knife she took from the Drama dorm) grabs his. ]

It was worth a try.

[He takes a moment to straighten his shirt (the handle of a knife visible tucked into the waistband of his pants is briefly visible) before he takes her hand]

. . . anything is worth a try, I guess.

[ Her grip is tight. Very, very tight. ]

So, um. I assume you've noticed all of our teammates on ... the other teams.

Yeeeeeep.

Honestly, I don't know why I'm surprised.

I'm not. After you ... twice, and Bunny.

[ She just sounds kind of resigned. ]

[. . .]

I don't know what we're going to do.

[this would actually be kind of funny if the situation weren't so serious.]

[. . . yeah, that's true. It is pretty funny to see him cling to his door while his feet move on their own]

... Now there's an idea.

[Blowing as intense a gust of wind as she can muster into Kaito's face, trying to push him back out of the door.]

[It's probably enough to. . . maybe blow his hair back, yes.]

[but his fingers slip eventually, and he trips into the auditorium with an audible sigh]

Does it always have to be like this?

I dunno, but I know that if this isn't the nicest game I've ever been to, as soon as I'm out of here I'm going to go knock down some trees and block that door off.

[wryly]

And I'm sure the blockade will be gone by the time the second call goes out.

Still worth trying.

. . .

Sure. Sure. . . it is.

... What is that pause for?

[Clever, but futile. He stumbles into the auditorium once his grip slips]

. . . can't say I didn't try.

No, you did your best.

[ stares intently at the door. maybe if I break it. . . ]

Which is about all we can ask for, I guess.

[staring at it with her]

[ well. she tries a thing with her eye thing. but when it doesn't work, she sighs a bit wearily ]

. . . nice try, Rena.

That's all we can ask for. . .

. . . please. Take care of yourself, Kit.
