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.]

[ This instructor has finally put on some clothes! … kind of … She's mutilated the shirt, cutting off most of the bottom, the collar, and both of the sleeves, and she's hacked the pants into shorts.

She just flops into a chair and lounges there, watching everyone. ]

[ ARE YOU TALKING TO ME you are ... talking to me, aren't you. ]

Uh, should I know you?

[ Behold this astonishing lack of recognition. ]

Re: MINGLE

... Fuck, another one who doesn't remember?

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

I remember plenty, thanks!

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

But not the castle.

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

Sounds t'me like you've got a case of mistaken identity goin' on.

[ffffuck it I DON'T KNOW YOU WELL ENOUGH TO GUESS HOW YOU'D REACT TO THINGS DAMNIT THIS IS HARD]

... Would it help if I told you I'm a friend of Bluebird and Spark?

[ O ... Okay no that gets her attention. ]

How? They can't be anythin' save for long dead.

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

... Dead? What do you mean?

[I don't like where this is going.]

Re: MINGLE

[islandcourage]

Hey, I'm betting you haven't heard anything either, right?

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

Nothin' from whoever brought us here, nope.

Re: MINGLE

[islandcourage]

Damn.

Upside, I've invented the W-tazer.

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

... The what what?

[ WHAT IS A TAZER ]

Re: MINGLE

[islandcourage]

You know, the zappy thing in your utility belt.

I was in the supply closet 'til now cobbling together two of them into something better.

Hey, can I borrow yours?

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

[ Eyes her, one brow raised. ]

No.

Re: MINGLE

[islandcourage]

Tch, stingyyy.

It's just a thing you don't know what does. Leave it to the experts, and stick to your antiquated beatdown sticks.

Re: MINGLE

[carnatious]

It's a thing that is my thing, and I ain't in the habit of sharing. Least of all with strangers.

Find your own stuff.

Re: MINGLE

[islandcourage]

Oh... about that.

[PULLING OUT A HANDGUN. And. Showing it off, not pointing it at her.]

I borrowed it from the closet. Isn't it awesome? A nice high caliber, too... damn good for stopping power.
