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! ))

Investigation

[Before the club meeting, Angus is performing his regular routine at the weight room. He has a variety of weights laid on the floor and a decent barbell prepared for himself, but he spends several minutes collecting tools for stretches and for people that can't lift 100 pounds.

While waiting for Eurydice, he warms up, facing the door, watching. Each time it opens, he greets the entrant with:]
Morning!

[After a brief break at the meeting, Angus collects his new grappling hook and heads outside to the courtyard. He walks along the perimeter of the school, looking for an ideal spot, and decides on a spot he assumes is close enough to the auditorium. If the Wizard resides anywhere, it should be above that room.]

Wish me luck.

[He swings the end of the rope and throws it up the wall.]

[...Well. That's a lot. But then, he had been expecting a lot.]

Far be it from me to tell you what to do, but it might be wise to take a little sword break.

[And he'll just walk over, putting his arm on the mannequin she'd just been practicing on, leaning against it.]

For the record this is self destructive
For the record
you're aware of that
For the record like this you'll just end up falling
Down unto the ground with a satisfying splat


[He casually moves to gently push her sword away. For all that he's all carefree and mocking as usual, there's absolutely no bite to it whatsoever. If anything, he looks more concerned.]

For the record.

Yeah, I mean...honestly, it sounds sortof like a kind of magic, if you want to look at it that way.

[...]

Assuming you want to call that giraffe, uh. ...magic.

[Magic as opposed to a hallucination, perhaps.]

[Morning finds Maya in the costume room. She's pulling out bolts of fabric and any leather-esque materials. Her sewing job is a hasty one, but it looks like she's trying to put together a sheath and sword belt? It doesn't seem to be going quite her way, though. Her teeth are clenched, and she looks incredibly frustrated.

Eventually, she'll leave the project for the time being, though! She opts to go outside and, well. She'd intended to simply go for a run around the football field but... She's pretty quickly distracted by the animals. She's not exactly a pet person but... Well.

She does end up with a chicken in her lap at some point. And though her eyes still seem distant, her shoulders seem to relax, just a little!

After some time with the therapy chickens, Maya returns to her work in the costume room. It keeps her busy until later in the evening. It's only then that she makes her way to Rodgers dorm.]


Janis?

[personal profile] mayavericks 2021-06-23 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
He'd love them.

[Maya doesn't know much about the ritual. Most of what she does know are from the old Greek plays she's been apart of. But she can respect the thought that's gone into it, at least.

The tap shoes, however, she does understand. She stares at them as they're set down. Even as he continues speaking, her gaze remains locked there.]


He would have loved them. [A beat.] The first time we danced together, it was a tap routine.

[With her sword free, Maya's able to take a step back. She looks down at the blade, to the mannequin, and then to Discord.]

What do you propose I do instead?
alchemistake: (Plutonium)

[personal profile] alchemistake 2021-06-23 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
N-no...it's okay. You don't have to.

[He shakes his head, still looking at the alter in front of them.]

...I've been wondering if this is the best place for this.

[The alter, he means.]

It's not so easy for others to visit, being in one of the dorms. I want everyone to be able to come to it, if they want to.

[personal profile] alchemistake 2021-06-23 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait, what?

[That actually is startling enough as a revelation to get him to sit up a bit straighter.]

Fake animals, weird trees...why?

[Varian will make a mental note of that too, then.

Is there anything else unusual that might stick out for him to be looking at? Anything odd placed around- like the benches- or is that about all there is to see?]

[personal profile] mayavericks 2021-06-23 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It's... a better explanation than anything I could have come up with. [Magic. Huh.]

Truthfully, I would have believed it to be a hallucination or... my imagination, if I had not fought others that I knew. It's all been just as real to them, too.

Rodgers Dorm

[ Janis is... sort of pacing a little when she arrives, with a restless energy. But that breaks when Maya enters. ]

Hey, babe. How...?

[ Are you? Are things? She hasn't been slightly terrified of what Maya might try to do and have no idea what to expect right now or anything, nope. ]
alchemistake: (Bohrium)

[Varian jumps, blinking when the plush arm whaps him. It's like Sonic himself is telling him to shut the fuck up and stop disrespecting him.

...wait no, that's just Rina talking in her sleep.]


...that actually explains a lot, now that you say he's from a video game. She loves those.
alchemistake: (Silver)

[personal profile] alchemistake 2021-06-23 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's...uh. Complicated.

[He looks off to the side, then up at the auto shop's ceiling.]

Let's just say I've...dealt with royalty not keeping their promises before.

[Maya's quiet as she slips into the room. She closes the door behind her. It's probably a little concerning that she doesn't ask for permission. She doesn't even ask if she can sit on a bed -- she just does. Her sword lays across her lap, bundled now in the makeshift sheath she's created.

Janis had tried to ask a question. Maya can guess what she was getting at, and knows that she doesn't have an answer. Instead, she disregards it and speaks.]


I need to ask a favor of you.

[ As promised, bright and early Peregrine, Spongebob, and Eurydice prep to go on a deep woods exploration, to see just how far they go. Emergency supplies in some of the backpacks they didn’t need to sew, they’re all ready!

Peregrine herself is. Nervous? Definitely nervous. But let’s give this a try. ]
fourbutts: (94)

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-23 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... yeah, sure. What's up?

[ If this is what Maya needs, it's what she's here to provide. ]

[Elle has elected to stay on the ground, but if anything goes wrong she is here with her basic understanding of first aid!]

You got this!
mayavericks: (I Have No Need)

[personal profile] mayavericks 2021-06-23 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Take this.

[She holds the sword out to her. It even has a little belt for Janis to use.]

I don't... Think it is a good idea for me to carry it right now.
fourbutts: (54)

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-23 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Janis looks at her, looks at the sword. ]

You'll... still be able to handle yourself, right? If someone comes after you without it?
mayavericks: (Do Not Be At The Mercy)

[personal profile] mayavericks 2021-06-23 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I am not as talented in hand to hand as I am with a sword, I will admit that. [She shrugs.] But I held my own against Spongebob the other day.

[She lets that hang for a moment, before.... realizing that it's probably not as comforting as she thinks.]

And... It just means I'll have to stay close to you. I know you will not let anything happen to me.
fourbutts: (42)

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-23 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Janis sniffs, quietly, then nods. ]

And here I was worried you were here to try to... never mind.

[ She picks up the sword. ]

You got it, babe. I'll be the knight for a bit.

[They have mattresses, what can go wrong? The end of the grappler hooks onto something on the roof, and Angus gives it a few good tugs.]

I trust in you.

[And he'll start to go up.]
mayavericks: (I Have No Need)

[personal profile] mayavericks 2021-06-23 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[Maya tries to catch her hand as she pulls it away.]

Try to what?

[That's not good. Angus leans against the side of the car.]

What kind of promises?
fourbutts: (43)

[personal profile] fourbutts 2021-06-23 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I...

[ She looks almost embarrassed. ]

I don't exactly have the best track record with being kept around. You start trying to prepare for it, after it happens once or twice.
