ORIENTATION

[When you start to stir from your slumber, you awaken to the smell of dust and rotted wood. Your bed is far from comfortable -- lumps in the mattress, a tattered blanket that barely keeps you warm and a pillow almost as hard as a rock-- and you'll immediately see there are others in your room with you.

All of you are confused, surely. "Where am I?" "What place is this?" Questions like that stir through your mind while you take in your surroundings. Something might catch your eye before anything else, though. A coloured chest tied with a bow, a large gift tag is attached to it with your name on it. There's one for everyone in each dorm, and if you open it you'll find:

An old, worn school uniform.
A colourful costume.
And a pamphlet with information about you, about your stay in this Academy, and a map of the layout of the school and the training grounds outside. The descriptions are vague, leaving out important details about your new super powers called "Quirks", a bland description about how you were selected to join the Academy called "VA" (no explanation what it means), and even the map has lame descriptions of locations that don't really give you a good idea of where you're staying.

Before you can start exploring, or chatting away with your neighbors, a voice rings over old intercoms. It sounds low and comforting, like a long lost friend. But there's something about that that feels.. unsettling. A feeling in your gut that this voice was anything but friendly.

"Welcome, students. You must be very confused, but I assure you I'll be able to answer all the questions you have in just a few minutes.

For now, relax, explore, and meet your new classmates who will be staying with you during this semester.

Oh, but..... whatever you do, don't enter the dining room."

The intercom cuts off, leaving you with a cryptic message to think about on top of.. everything else you're dealing with right now.]
swimmerder: (the years start coming)

Yeah. [She's still looking downcast at the water for a moment. A waste is a great way to put it. The pool seems like it could have been one of the few fun things here.]

Is this really a school...? I have never seen one this dirty.

[With that, she'll turn and look the guy over. The main thing that surprises her is the mark above his eye. Is that a facial tattoo???]
twoasone: (Well you’re only scared of me)

[There's a similar mark under his other eye as well... But what catches his eye are her beautiful, ethereal eyes. Now, he didn't usually focus his gaze on just the eyes- That was someone else's obsession- but these... Those are real, yes? They don't look like contacts...

All these thoughts he keeps to himself. As much as he wants to ask, there's something more dire to address.]


It must have been one, I guess, but it clearly hasn't been used in some time. Why we would all be summoned here all of a sudden is beyond me.

[They're certainly not contacts - there's no sign of the lens anywhere. These are definitely the color of Swim's irises. They widen slightly in surprise.]

You were summoned here too? ...I thought you were going to say you're a teacher here.

[I mean, it's the conclusion one would make if you see an adult in a school. If you're taking things very literally.]
twoasone: (Talked about everything)

[personal profile] twoasone 2019-09-17 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[He shakes his head.] No, and I doubt I could honestly call myself a student. This is clearly a hostage situation, and everyone I've met so far is a captive. Just like you and I.

[Seriously, only beggars would want to teach in this dump.]
swimmerder: (and they don't stop coming)

[personal profile] swimmerder 2019-09-18 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I see... to be honest, I thought something else was going on here, but there's no reason for a captive to be here if that were the case.

[she makes a small 'hm' noise, considering it further.]

This is a problem. Still, I will do my best to rescue you, so bear with me.

[Swim turns toward the building and jumps. It's a pretty good jump, showing clear athleticism, but still not enough to get her to the roof of the building, so she lands on her feet.]

...

[well, that's not going to work here, apparently.]
twoasone: (I'm just reminiscing)

[personal profile] twoasone 2019-09-19 01:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Rescue?

[Before he could ask for more clarification, she just walks past him and tries to jump onto the roof.

What.]


... Well, I don't think that's going to work. Or help.
swimmerder: (well)

[personal profile] swimmerder 2019-09-20 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
So it seems.

[She's perturbed, but she just walks back to him as though she didn't just try to jump onto the roof of a three story building from the ground floor.]
