No more poison killin my emotion I will not be frozen

[afterlifer]

WHO: EVERYONE
WHAT: Interactions
WHEN: August 28 – September 1
WHERE: Anywhere and everywhere in this afterlife
WARNINGS: Cussing
SUMMARY: INTERACTION LOG you know the drill.

28th: Today seems as though it’s a normal day, right? Wake up, take a shower, walk outside to head to class and… the NPCs aren’t moving. Stopped mid-step they’re completely frozen all over the school grounds. Some may be in class already and frozen at their desks, others might’ve been frozen as they were walking to or around the school. Maybe you were outside just inside to see them come to a sudden halt. After an hour, they’ll return to normal and continue on as though nothing happened.

29th: The school festival is a month away and it’s time to start planning for it! Classes will get a free period to plan for it today and clubs will need to get together and talk about setting up special activities for the students if they want to participate. GET HYPED.

30th: Do you hear that? Outside of your dorm—in the hallway! It sounds like pitter patter of little feet running up and down the halls… a bunch of them too, and there’s even some little barks here and there. Open your door and SUDDENLY LITTLE SHIBA INU AND GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPIES RUNNING ALL ABOUT. Don’t deny them love, they’re ever so playful and fluffy.

31st: It’s so close to your day off—but the teachers decided they’re going to end this week with a math test. Ew, right? Hope you studied or this is going to suck.

1st: Even in the afterlife your uniform and clothes get a bit dirty from time to time, and it’d be pretty gross if you didn’t wash your underwear so go on, wash your clothes! Or… don’t. The washer’s broken—actually waters starting to spill out of it!!! Now you’re standing in a puddle, oops.

As always, remember there are basketball, kendo, drama and baseball clubs now so practices can be set up whenever you want! And if you want to do something outside of what we've provided, feel free to do so.

[ she looks up at Leon, and though she nods in acknowledgement, she doesn't stop what she's doing.]

Something has happened to them, they cannot move! They may not be like you or me, but they don't deserve to be in such a tragic situation! So I am doing everything in my power to get them moving again.

[tsunball]

... Well, they aren't real though, right? They probably won't even notice it when they start moving again.. [ And Leon certainly isn't nice enough to go around doing that for a bunch of NPCs like Sonia is. No way. ]

I mean, maybe they're like robots and their battery just ran out!

[princesspool]

[ Oddly enough, that seems to greatly annoy her.]

Robots deserve just as much time, attention, and freedom of movement as the rest of us! We can't say for certain what they're thinking or feeling. If there is even a slim chance they are suffering, I cannot stand by and let it pass without offering my aide!

[tsunball]

[ W.. what, this girl is intense..! Not really in a bad way-- maybe a little weird, but at least she doesn't really seem crazy. Just really, really worked up about the feelings of a bunch of robots / fake people.. ]

U-uh-- they're not suffering, I mean.. they can't even move, so why would they be able to think right now?! You'll probably just confuse them if you're gonna push them around so they'll be somewhere else when they go back to normal!

[princesspool]

[ now that does have some logic to it. She frowns, slowly stopping her push and standing upright as she thinks about it.]

... I suppose that would be disorienting. Damned if I do, damned if I don't... I just have difficulty seeing them this way and being unable to help in any way. If I can't help others or understand what they're thinking, then I've made a failure of myself and the situation.

[tsunball]

No way, Sonia-chan, you didn't do anything wrong at all! [ Although he'd probably tell her that no matter what the situation is.. Leon's so desperate that he's always just sucking up to girls unless they're extreme weirdos. ]

It's not like any of them will blame you when they're back to normal, really!

[princesspool]

That's very nice of you to say, Leon-san.

[ he kind of reminds her of Souda... In both good and bad ways. That's why she smiles.]

To me, doing nothing still feels wrong. It is difficult to explain... Have I told you my talent? What my role is in life?

[tsunball]

Uh.. I guess I forgot to ask last time! [ Which is actually pretty rude since she did ask about his talent, but Leon is so self-centered he.. didn't.. even notice.. whoops. ]

What is it? Does it have anything to do with pushing people around?

[princesspool]

I am A Super High School Level Princess.

[ let's have that sink in for a moment. ]

[tsunball]

[ A moment is what it needs, since he's thinking...

.. thinking.....

.. and then it finally seems to hit. His eyes widen. ]

P-Pr-Pr-Pr-- Princess?! [ He was talking to a princess all along?! Oh god.. ]

[princesspool]

As such, it is my future duty to see that all of my people are well cared for. In that same vien, helping others is my first born nature. To ignore it would be ignoring all I have been taught and I have striven to be for the same of my home country.

[tsunball]

[ Sure, Sonia, that's all good and nice, but Leon's still in a state of shock that he was flirting with a princess.. well, not like it means much in the afterlife, but still--!! He knows he has to regain his composure here though before he looks uncool.. (it's already way, way too late, Leon.) ]

Uh-- .. t-.. that explains a lot!

[princesspool]

I was going to be a transfer student at Hope's Peak Academy, and my school years would have helped strengthen the bond between Japan and my country of Novoselic. Thus my urge to help others is one not so easily controlled.

[tsunball]

It's okay, it's okay, Sonia-chan! That kinda shit doesn't really matter here anymore either way, right?

[princesspool]

Helping one another always matters. Where we may be and our circumstances does not change what is right.

[leon are you trying to fail because really-]

[tsunball]

[ HE'S NOT CONSCIOUSLY TRYING TO.. he just sucks at shutting up when he should, no brain to mouth filter. ]

.. H.. hey, that's not what I meant, I just-- y-you shouldn't have to think of your duty here, it's fine to just enjoy having fun!

[princesspool]

... I cannot find fun while they're stuck like this. If you wish to go on, then you may do so. I think I will stay with them a little while longer.

[tsunball]

Well.. [ He doesn't feel like shoving around NPCs, but on the other hand, spending time with a cute girl!

Why do all decisions in his life have to be so hard. ]

.. I.. I'll stay here with you, Sonia-chan! Else you'd be all by yourself!

[princesspool]

[Wow Sonia really does bring all the boys to the yard.]

... Really? You would do that?

[tsunball]

Of course, it's not problem! We could just.. uh.. [ He was going to say sit somewhere, but with these frozen NPC crowds all around.. ] .. hang.. around.. I guess?

[princesspool]

... Thank you, Leon-san. That's kind of you.

[She knows it's probably because of 'what' she is, but the effort is still appreciated.]

[tsunball]

Hey, it's no problem when it's for you, Sonia-chan! [ He's totally not obvious and desperate.. except he is. Badly. Really badly. ]

Even if this isn't normally a place I'd go hang out in, in the middle of this crowd.. it shouldn't be too long that they'll be stuck like this, right?
