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.]

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

Maybe all the cards got cancelled out... That's happened before.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

That … would be nice.

… But I think it's more likely that the Instructors are waiting for their orders.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

.... And they're not telling us, so they can get off on our tension and anxiety.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

Yeah ...

We're all gonna have to be careful.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

You think it's the Instructors that will carry out whatever happens, then?

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

I'm as sure as I can be. It fits with what we all know.

... and it'd be just like Sabra. Since all of these places seem to be sharing playbooks, it makes sense, right?

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

... That's comforting, in a way.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

In the "at least we know what's coming" way, I assume.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

If it's gods or Echoes doing it, we can't do anything about it, but if it's people coming to hurt us... I might be able to take them.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

If that's what you want to do, it's ... worth trying, definitely.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

... You think it's a bad idea.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

I don't know. It's not wrong to defend yourself, and maybe it could work.

But the consequences might mean that it's not worth it.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

I'm more worried about the consequences of not fighting back.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

... Mm. I understand.

All the same, Nightingale-san, please be careful. [ I can't remember if we swapped names BUT EVEN IF WE DIDN'T I've heard enough to guess yours. ]

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

[I AT LEAST GOT YOURS SO]

I will be. I'd like to stay alive, if I can.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[clocksandroses]

Good.

... We don't even know if there'll be revivals, after all.

Re: ROUND 1: END ...?

[experiencepoints]

Yeah. Or if there are, if they'll revive right.
