SCHOOL FESTIVAL

[afterlifer]

WHO: Everyone!
WHAT: School Festival / Arriving in the Afterlife!
WHEN: 9/30/2012. Morning through evening.
WHERE: All around! Mostly at the school, since it is a school festival!
WARNINGS: Potential violence, but since everyone's already dead it's not like it matters, BUT FOR THE MOST PART HUNKY DORY PG! So PG+V? That works.
SUMMARY: A school festival! Details here!

No matter where it is you woke up, if it's near buildings the sounds of merriment are all around. The shouts of people rooting for the winner of a game, students trying to pull in attention for their booths, adults laughing as they trip over themselves during a sport or someone screaming at the haunted house...

It's then that you realize you're at some kind of festival, everyone's invited, and no one seems to be bothering with money.

Then the realization that you're not even in your clothes. What the hell is this outfit? A school uniform? A janitor? A store clerk? Waitress?

No, no, the bigger question is deinitely "What the hell is going on and where am I?" With nothing but forest and mountains visible in the distance, it's kind of--

POP POP!

..Are those fireworks?

If your character isn't at one of the events and are elsewhere in the town/forest/school/dorms/exploring the buildings/wherever, feel free to just comment with their own thread at the bottom.

[Well. Strange or not, it couldn't hurt to at least play games at this festival, right?! Which is what Otonashi is doing now, mostly in an attempt to take his mind off of this strangeness.

So! Your character may catch him doing extremely well at shooting corks at those stuffed animals. Not that.. he really wants them for himself, but. Y'know. He may be trying out those hoop-tossing games as well. Which he isn't doing so great at.]

[superhacker]

[ Wow! Chihiro doesn't know the guy... like he practically doesn't know the rest of the people here, but that's nonetheless impressive! He wonders if he's another of the Super High School Level students that were suppost to be in Hope's Peak...

Hope you don't mind if this little... girl is staring at you with fascination. Chihiro has a thing for big and strong guys. ]

[brotonashi]

[A thing for big and strong guys huh... But yes! Just.. shooting away here. He takes one more shot before he notices Chihiro and looks over at her, assuming her to be an NPC or something.]

Uh... Hey. You wanna play?

[superhacker]

[ Oh, he noticed him. Time to freak out a little. ]

E-eh? Me? I'm sorry for staring- no no I don't wish to play...! [ Guns are scary and he doesn't want to hurt anyone...! ]

[brotonashi]

[Well the gun is fake and only shoots out corks, but...]

Oh, you sure? It's pretty fun. Not that hard, either.

[superhacker]

[ This is the same boy who would let a mosquito feed on him because he didn't want to hurt it, so... ]

F-fun...? [ How is it fun to shoot things, he doesn't understand! ]

[brotonashi]

[Oh goodness...

Otonashi nods, holding the toy rifle out to him.] Yeah. Try giving it a shot.

[slave_of_suzumiya]

[Kyon'll notice Otonashi shooting the corks...]

... Huh, you're pretty good at this.

[brotonashi]

[Otonashi shoots another before looking over in Kyon's direction.]

Hm? Oh, uh... thanks, man! I'm kinda used to this kind of thing, so...

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Used to it? You get a lot of target practice then?

[brotonashi]

Something like that, yeah. It's a little complicated to explain.

[aka he'd rather not for the sake of him not sounding crazy like the rest of the SSS]

[slave_of_suzumiya]

Right then, I see...

(... How complicated can target practice be?)

[brotonashi]

[Well..]

Anyway, you wanna try giving it a shot?

[extraordinarily]

[ Hey, Otonashi. Cue one teenage girl who is also shooting corks at the stuffed animals. And now she's glaring at you Otonashi, like a wild tiger.

... Sorry, but she wants to win them all. And by that, she actually wants to be #1 at this game. ]

[brotonashi]

[He watches her shooting those corks from the corner of his eye, and when he notices that she's suddenly glaring at him, uh... this is awkward.]

Uh... something wrong?

[extraordinarily]

Nothing's wrong. Just a little... friendly competition.

[ 'Friendly' isn't the right word for it, honestly. ]

[brotonashi]

Well, I guess that couldn't hurt. Somehow this doesn't sound very 'friendly' though...

[unsure..]

[extraordinarily]

Well, it's not friendly without imposing a penalty on the loser!

[ Haruhi, no... ]

[brotonashi]

[Who is this girl. Is she like Yuri's twin or something...]

What kind of penalty?

[asquiet]

[Nezumi doesn't see Otonashi in his glory. No. He sees him failing at hoop-tossing. Nezumi just stands there, watching him try. It's amusing. So amusing that he laughs under his breath and after another failed attempt, he claps his hands.]

I feel as if I should be paying you. Bravo.

[brotonashi]

[Hearing Nezumi laugh and clap, Otonashi turns his direction to him. Um. Rude. 8|]

What? It's pretty difficult, man.

[asquiet]

If that's what you need to tell yourself. Be my guest.

[Nezumi would like to say it isn't hard at all okay.]

[brotonashi]

[wow even more rude!]

Well if you want to put it like that, why don't you try doing it?

[asquiet]

[Nezumi takes one of the hoops. He needs to keep his accuracy up go for with perfect aim. Gives it a toss after a few moments and guess what?

It reaches its target. Nezumi turns around.]

Simple. [That smirk on his face won't leave any time soon.]

[brotonashi]

[wow

what a douchebag]

Woah... N-no way! Do it again.
