02 - week two

[afflictionmods]

WEEK TWO

When the glitter settles and everyone returns to their dorms - or wherever they intend to sleep for the night, if you’re planning on sleeping at all - your first week of school officially ends. Perhaps it was better than you expected, perhaps it was worse.

Hopefully you learned a bit more about teamwork and school spirit.

Still, this course is going to run for longer than a full week, and come Sunday morning you’re still exactly as you were when you settled down for the night. Still in Estelline, still with that mark on your wrist, still connected to your partner. There are some changes, though. The bookstore has received quite a few books, and those of you who added to the bulletin board and pep rally tasks in the first week will find an envelope taped to their dorm door (or themselves, if they spent the night elsewhere). Inside of the envelope is some kind of voucher! Furthermore, the common area is covered in a bunch of glitter.

Also, there are a ton of eggs in the kitchen – at least 10 dozens.

Florence or Lorelei are still available, should you wish to speak to them.

Finally, you've got some new locations to explore.

[ His sense are pretty good, so he yells back up: ]

It's not luck; it's fate. You were fated to fail on this day, just like the petty henchmen in the tales of yore.

[totalcatastrophe]

And your umbrella was fated for an egg wash today.

[ His tail makes one last sneak attack egg throw, a side curveball egg. ]

[cloudalike]

[ It's unfortunately true. ]

I... cannot deny that.

[ Reflexively blocking that last egg. ]

But you also cannot deny that I have stopped every egg with it, so please stop wasting more eggs.

[totalcatastrophe]

Oh no, is fate keeping you trapped in one place too?

[ He might be out of eggs. Or he might just be bored now. ]

[cloudalike]

Well... yes? Are we not all trapped here currently?

[totalcatastrophe]

[ Luci groans. I'm sorry about him. ]

No, dummy, not everyone is trapped in our line of fire.

[cloudalike]

[ Oh, that. ]

No, I chose to stay here because I wanted to understand you better. And also to say hello to Mae.

[totalcatastrophe]

Really? Well in that case, say hi, Mae.

[ Luci says it, in a much friendlier voice than usual, hoping she gets the hint. Out of sight from the ground, the tip of his tail points in Chongyun's direction in the air a few times before dropping. ]

[totaltrashfire]

Hey Chongyun!

[And then she will throw another egg at him, catching Luci's hint exactly.

Sorry buddy.]

[cloudalike]

Hello, Mae - wagh!

[ YOU KNOW, this umbrella is new-ish and he feels bad for it. ]

Ugh, I still don't see the point of this...

[totaltrashfire]

[Sorry, Chongyun, but you are standing in the Splash Zone.]

Don't you know how to have fun? [Is getting pelted by eggs fun?]

[cloudalike]

[ Nope. ]

Ah, I spent - spend most of my time training, and it has been that way since I was a child. Sorry, I don't really know how to have fun. I never had time to learn, I guess.

[totaltrashfire]

Wow. That's pretty sad...

[Maybe she feels bad about the eggs. Maybe.]

[cloudalike]

Is it?

[ He doesn't think so. ]

I'm fine without "fun." Life has been fulfilling in many other ways.

[totalcatastrophe]

That is pretty sad, dude. You know, trust somebody from Hell: no one is actually fine without fun.

[ Luci pipes up again. It's less boring now. ]

Can you think of one non-clan related thing you like to do?

[cloudalike]

[ He thinks. It’s surprisingly hard to pick out anything not related to training or exorcism. ]

I… Hmm. Eating Inazuman dishes. They just have a way with cold noodle dishes. And… talking to Xingqiu.

[totaltrashfire]

Do you guys do anything other than talk? Hang out? Listen to music? Watch movies?

[Wait he may not know what a movie is.]

[totalcatastrophe]

Throw eggs off a roof?

[ Luci adds to the list. ]
