Week Four

[Last week, Gershwin High School Academy University saw its very first intentional murder! What a milestone! And right after Spongebob's No Murder party, too - that doesn't seem like it bodes very well for anybody's future.

You all wake up this morning with yet another new memory returned to you. You'll also find that the school's external doors have now unlocked. Congratulations! You're free! Unfortunately, you also seem to be entirely in the middle of nowhere. So maybe it's more of a symbolic victory.

Still, you should look around and do some investigation! Maybe you'll find a fun surprise.]


Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday


(( Be sure to submit your memory regains and your AC for this week! Hester's office hours and the merch booth also remain available! ))

The Garden

[ Orpheus wanders out late in the night, carrying what looks like a plate of ashes and burnt fish bones along with a pair of tap shoes. He makes a beeline for the garden, but stops at the entrance when he hears Maya singing. For a moment he considers turning back, but what was it he said to Peregrine? They needed to be there for each other. No matter what.

He steps in, raising the hand holding the shoes in greeting. He'll wait until she's done with her song, before saying,
]

Evening, Maya. Are you, um. Are you doing all right?
mayavericks: (That is Pride)

[Late as it is, Maya hadn't expected visitors. She isn't surprised, but... She also doesn't look like her usual, presentable self.]

It's been a long day. That's all.
tailor_made: and one day, he'll say to me (the wizard and i)

football field

[At some point before Farrah becomes a feral graverobber, Hester has decided to take a little break from her office hours to get some fresh air! She all but skips up the path to the football field, her arms full of green and white pom-poms that match the cheerleading uniform she's changed into.]

Farrah~! Are you doing anything right now?

[His duty as a prince...]

And...I bet you have a lot of people who count on you. And look up to you. Right?

Powers it? You mean like...electricity?

[He's trying to imagine it...this sounds fucking wild.]

[COOL COOL

By the way since I just remembered the weird fake rabbit found in the woods...are there any signs of animals like that in this garden?]

Well, you might not have been able to set it up before I got here, but I can help you now that I am here.

[Who says he can't set up his own surprise?]

What should I do?
alchemistake: (Technetium)

[personal profile] alchemistake 2021-06-22 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Got some competition, eh?

[He's joking....unless.]
alchemistake: (Plutonium)

[personal profile] alchemistake 2021-06-22 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
...yeah. Exactly.

[Varian runs his gloved hand carefully along the smooth wood of Mumble's bench.]

It's cruel. Just like giving us the ability to go outside...as if he's just trying to show us from every angle how we can't actually escape.

[Not with their lives, anyway.]
mayavericks: (Shining Brighter!)

I... suppose that's one way of thinking about it.

You can see that I hardly understand the process myself.

Tragically, I am not perfect. Sad but true.

[HAHA

Varian's expression flattens.]


I didn't even know this was like...a thing until she saw it on my bed. I guess he's popular?

[You GUESS]

The Balladeer suggested there might be some sort of portal in there. I can't say that sort of thing in general makes sense to me, but I think it makes a lot more sense than being able to keep live animals in that machine.

[Or. You know. Hundreds of trombones.]

I... think I do? I don't remember running into him before waking up in this place, but... those dreams. The ones that might be memories? I remember him from the dreams I had last night.

[Elsa gets that. When she thinks of beings who wield the elemental forces of nature, she thinks of the gods and the giants; Thor, Surtr, Skadi... not a little lizard she can pick up with one hand.]

He may look cute and cuddly... but believe me, he can pack quite a bit of a punch. When you live in a forest, being able to burn anything you touch can be quite dangerous.

Usually, reality is my playground. Being chaos itself means that I don't have to worry much about limits or rules, for the most part.

Oh, Varian, you have no idea.

[ But this... this is not where Ken Penders comes up icly this round. ]

He's a nice guy who runs fast and eats chili dogs and hangs out with lots of cool furry friends, and that's enough to make certain groups of people go absolutely feral.

Sounds impossible. You are absolutely perfect in every respect.

[Said so solemnly.]

[ He blames himself. Of course he does -- he's so kind and good, unlike anyone she's ever met, and all Eurydice did was let him get hurt. ]

No, don't -- you didn't need to be better. Orpheus, you are the best person I've ever met, and I've met a lot of people. I shouldn't have let you promise those things, I should've known -- [ That the world isn't fixable. That she should have moved on as soon as she could, because if she doesn't get hurt, then someone else will.

Eurydice drops her hands, her gaze. She goes quiet and small, closing in on herself. ]


You deserved better.
mcfife: heartfelt (☀️all that I've known here)

[Angus lets go of a long, deep breath that needed to get out. Four deaths, four people he wanted to bring to their homes. A penguin man he vowed to help, and empress who had a country, a boy who had so much to live for, and a robot he tried to teach. He can’t let anyone else die. Not someone as kind as Elle.

He steadies her on his lap and holds her by rest his hand on hers.]


I swear by it.

[How long has it been since he relaxed like this? Not when he was busy in his studies or exploring space. Not when Zargothrax returned. Just him, left alone, with a dear companion.]

I don’t want to lose you as well.

[ To go outside, he says... ]

...The woods are messed up. Like— they aren't right. There's no sign of weathering or dead branches— it's like someone just...popped them down. Any animals I found are fake.

[NOT KEN PENDERS]

...I'm not sure why it surprises me so much that that's something Rina-chan likes...

[But...Rina can be a mystery sometimes. She's cute, but she has secrets.]

[ Eurydice hesitates, but eventually takes it, and off they go! She's quiet most of the way, listening to Antonio if he chooses to talk. Eventually, she'll say, seemingly out of nowhere: ]

I signed the deal.
