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.]

[ hi, yes, Junko's here

and sitting up in bed kind of staring into the distance with a blank smile on her face

uh

well there's a fun roomie bonding activity, silent stareoffs. she's content to watch Mei have a stareoff of her own for a while until she gets curious enough to pipe up. ]


Is something the matter? Kidnapping aside, of course.

[Her bunkmate seems like the flashy sort at first glance, but as she's content to remain quiet for a while, so is Mei; still staring in some consternation at the bizarrely garish bow and name placed on... what? Her belongings? A better bed? A survival kit??

After a moment she huffs and crouches to examine the chest better, even if she still doesn't move to open it quite yet. It's already evident that she's either very slow-moving or just very deliberate, as she starts examining the knot in the ribbon with her hands this time.]

... I don't know if this is part of kidnapping.

Oh, the chest? It should just have some clothing and informational papers, I think. That's what mine had.

Almost like... a real new school...

[She doesn't seem pleased with this, but it is what it is.

Eventually, Mei finally moves to undo the ribbon and nudge open the chest -- she glances at the papers and nudges at the school uniform that's probably a more outdated version of her own. It's not surprising, or maybe it is the more surprising thing here despite her variety in roommates, but...

Then her eye falls on the costume and she just. Stares.]
