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.]

I'm not frightened.

[yes I am.]

Nightingale. You have given a certain response which I recognize, having given it myself.

It is alright. In the event that there is absolutely no other choice, I will allow it. Still, I would rather we hit neither at all, even if it harms us slightly.

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

I agree, if that is an option.

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

This leaves a follow-up question: What if our allies refuse? I do not believe it will be a large issue, but...

Re: MINGLE

...

For now, let's wait and see what kind of a game it is.

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

Right. Based on that we can strategize efficiently.

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

Maybe we're overthinking it.

[said in the tone of not believing that at all.]

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

[Just. Going to try and put a hand on her shoulder reassuringly.]

There is no such thing as being too prepared. I would rather we have these conversations now than in a possible time crunch.

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

[she goes very stiff on contact, but...]

... Yeah. Good point.

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

[Well it isn't soul searing pain, so she doesn't let go quite yet.]

Once this is over, would you like to help me heal the others? I believe that I have come up with a way to do so within the rules, but with minimal impact on our friends.

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

... I can't. I can't change class without a staff to equip.

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

[She tries offering one made out of her violet-colored barrier.] What if you equip this? Is that possible?

Re: MINGLE

[experiencepoints]

[... takes... it...]

What is this?

Re: MINGLE

[goodbyenurse]

A Sanctuary barrier. I am something of a white mage myself. Shields and healing are my specialties in combat.
