once more with feeling [act 3]
You awake in an unfamiliar bed.
It’s comfortable enough, sure, but it’s certainly not yours. The room, too, is unfamiliar, especially in such heavy darkness. There seems to have been a great effort put into making it a livable space, with fuzzy rugs laid over linoleum, beds arranged as best to fit (and one bunk bed per dorm, rip whoever has the bottom bunk), and a single desk. You've also got individually labelled trunks; if you look inside yours, you'll find a yearbook with mostly blank pages, as well as a few with some interesting information. But even with all these changes it’s clear this room started it’s life as a classroom, every window hidden behind heavy dark green curtains.
To add to the strangeness of it all, your clothes have been swapped for some kind of uniform. It, though fitting your body perfectly, might feel a bit odd to some of you, as the body you have isn’t quite the same as it was before you mysteriously fell unconscious. The other important thing to note is the people in the other beds around you, all wearing the same color-coded uniform.
The hallway outside the dorms is narrow but well-lit, with fresh white walls and some scattered posters advertising some kind of midweek club meeting. The hallway goes on until, for the more contemporary of you, the pieces start to fall together as to your location: a school. Once you leave your rooms you’re free to wander as you wish but pinned up on a corkboard just outside the cafeteria there’s framed information that you might find helpful. If you explore further into the other rooms, in fact, you'll see there's an identical copy outside all of them.
In the lobby there are linoleum floors and fluorescent lighting, and a pair of glass doors that appear to lead outside. You can see out of both of them that the sun is shining brightly and there’s definitely more to see in the distance but the glass is unbreakable; you can't get out that way right now. A rolling metal sheet blocks off the hallway to the west. For the moment, both doors leading outside are locked.
It looks like you’re stuck. But hey - at least you aren’t alone.

...whatever it is, it's hideous.

[No way to leave...no way to really know.]

Well. If these yearbooks are anything to go by, this is certainly some kind of farce.

"Most Likely to Take A Swan Dive..." [She presses her lips into a thin line, before she, too, snaps the book closed.]
They know more than they should, that much is certain.
no subject
[Said while looking at his own Yearbook. Yeah, he's seen his too and...seems like nobody here is happy about this.]
So we're dealing with stalkers, not just kidnappers. Do I have that right?
no subject
I suppose whomever wrote these would be the one with more of an explanation for our situation.

[Varian glances towards the door, unaware that even when they try to leave...well, they won't be going anywhere fast.]
Do you think we should split up?
no subject
...I suppose we might cover more ground that way. Perhaps we could agree to meet back here after a certain amount of time and share what we've discovered?
[that seems like the most logical path, right??]
no subject
Be wary. We do not know what sort of dangers this place holds.
no subject
[There won't be much, save for the discovery of the Assistant Director once she presents herself...as well as the fact that there's no escape.]
