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.]

… like I said … I'm used to this. [ Spoken with a trace of discomfort, which she quickly hides. ] Maybe not quite to this degree, but—you know.

Whatever the competition turns out to be, all we can do is argue to do the least possible damage.

I'm used to it, too, but not-- [definitely not to this degree]

Especially with Dragonfly ... right?

.... We'll grab everyone when we're done here. They can't stop us from spending the night together.

I like the sound of that.

Our dorm, do you think? We could move mattresses into the living room.

Re: MINGLE

[carptricks]

I'd be okay with that. We might have to ask the others, but. . .

If they say no, we'll just have to find somewhere else.
