trust you've got a game plan

[ At noon on Wednesday, Riley's standing ready in the dining hall, with a clipboard and a big smile to anyone who shows up. She's set blank stacks of paper on the table, but we'll get to that. As promised, there's some basic snacks as well as some tasty banana bread. Snacks for everyone! ]

Welcome everyoooone~! Thank you so much for showing up. This is a new and confusing experience for all of us, but I'm sure if we strive to stick together and cooperate, it'll help us foster the most productive environment that we can. [ Bright, bright smile. ] So! I've gathered all of you so we can share any discoveries and compare basic information that might give us any idea of why we've been brought here. Good? Okaaaay!

[ That smile never leaves her face. She sets something down from her clipboard and starts passing out that blank paper. ]

Sooo, following my example, if you could fill this out, that...can be a good starting discussion!

[ Her example is essentially a survey. Wonderful penmanship, again. ]

That is a wonderful idea, Jeremy, you should probably go with Christine. Okay? Take a break.

[justmeheere]

I, uh - yeah. M-maybe you're right. [A beat.] Um, can - can someone catch me up on the rest of the meeting later?

[Knowledge is power!! But he's had too much knowledge for one hour or whatever at this point.]

[isawallflower]

Yes, of course. Absolutely. Just- don't worry about anything, lay down.

[Christine is once again grabbing Jeremy's hand, because she has no qualms about being touchy feely, and gently leading him away from the action.]

Don't worry, I'll take notes when I come back.

[She kind of pats his arm as they walk. Better not bother telling her not to come to your room now, Jeremy.]

[justmeheere]

Ok. Thanks, Riley.

[He's just kind of. Letting himself be dragged away by Christine, because that's easier than resisting TWO different girls trying to mom friend him. He can barely resist one girl trying to mom friend him.]

Um, you - you know you don't have to walk me all the way back to my room, Christine.

[madgiganticfeelings]

What? Oh, shucks, Jeremy, I definitely didn't realize that! Guess I'll just let you wander off down the hall by yourself and maybe pass out again!

[Wow, Christine, you know sarcasm?]

It's fine. I want to make sure you're okay... sounds like there was a lot of stressful stuff we needed to talk about.
