SCHOOL FESTIVAL

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.

omg

Eh?! Oi!! Is that really the first thing you say to me?! Huh?!

she will cut him [yancat]

[personal profile] marumayu 2012-10-01 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
I-[ wow she is so torn, give her a moment ]-I don't want to hear that from someone who showed me something I didn't want to see!

[Damnit, no. He can't handle a whole other group of people who don't respect him and basically think he's a loser despite the fact that everything he's ever known has taught him that he deserves to be submitted to]

Wwell, howw about this, then? Howw about the fact that as royalty of a wwarlike an vviolent race, I'vve spent my wwhole life learnin' howw to lead? I'vve studied the tactics of wwar an the great leaders a my race, goin' back millennia. Not to mention my actual prowwess at fightin' angels, wwhich I already mentioned, wwhich is no small thing. I havve actual, real life experience, an knowwledge, not to mention the genetics a respected generals on my side. So wwhat does that mean, Yuri?

[ She never thought he was a loser, just- ]

That means that you're a hard-worker and actually are worthy of respect because of that. Not because of the way you were born, just because you've earned it. Duh.
onewayroad: (now nothing ever ever goes my way)

[personal profile] onewayroad 2012-10-01 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
So what? That doesn't mean shit. I just spent the better part of the day up against terrorist magicians who know what I look like. It's a lot easier to believe one of them set something up after locating me once the final commotion blew over and —

[yeah, he knows he's reaching here, but he's forcing himself to keep up the facade]

I can't just accept that this is it. That I hit the end. Not like this.
wwaterboy: (wwait wwhat?)

[personal profile] wwaterboy 2012-10-01 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
[It takes him a second, then he smiles a bit] Really?-- I mean, a course that's true. I wwouldn't just rely on my blood to carry me. If I did, I'd be cruisin' to be culled by members a my owwn caste.
tenminutes: (I'll get my own popsicles!)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
I mean, that's the qualification for getting here. I knew that before I knew anything about you, right? So that should be evidence at least. No one's telling you to accept it though.

You still exist. Dead, but you still exist. Not everyone ends up here, it's only the people who fit those qualifications, but not people who quit or want to quit. Which means you still want to fight, which means you still can.

[ Yuri smiles. It's not a happy one, but a confident one. ]

I'm going after God.
tenminutes: (Grumpbutt mode.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly! A lot of people do that though, that's just what I meant. Also that I'm not going to kiss your ass. I've got my own set of skills personally, even if I was born into a pretty wealthy family. We weren't involved in any wars, so they're different from your skills though.
wwaterboy: (i knoww wwhat im talkin about)

[personal profile] wwaterboy 2012-10-01 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
[He sniffs] I wwon't make you kiss my shame globes, but you wwill havve to provve yourself, a course. You can't just say you're startin' a revvolution an expect evveryone to followw.
onewayroad: (undressed like a soul in prayer)

[personal profile] onewayroad 2012-10-01 05:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Accelerator gives a long pause, the only expression on his face a blank stare. Then finally he starts laughing. The smile that accompanies his laugh is not a nice one. It's as bitter as bitter could be.]

See now, that just makes this even more unbelievable. You're saying an unfair life that you still want to fight against is all it takes. Well what if it's a complete scumbag who deserved all the shit that happened to him, huh?! [he laughs some more, the sound awfully unnerving to some] You're saying even the shittiest person in the world still gets a free pass in here just because he's not finished?
tenminutes: (Juice boxes are better that coffee.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'll do it whether people follow or not. If someone wants in, that's by their choice. On the other hand, if someone gets in my way I won't hesitate to take them out. There aren't any guns or anything, but there are knives in the cafeteria and I'm pretty good with them. Or the archery club's bow and arrows, maybe I should give that a shot!
tenminutes: (Nya. Happy now?)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Since just yesterday I was talking to someone who tried to enslave my comrades and I at gunpoint to dig a hole to bury Angel so that she couldn't come after us anymore and I escaped by shooting him in the stomach, I'd say yes. Though I was planning on getting him on my side, really.

[ Yuri's not bothered by it, oddly. Not at all. ] Obviously there are still going to be consequences if you start something horrible and there's the possibility of getting obliterated from existence. Not just dying, your soul will get wiped.
wwaterboy: (grimace)

[personal profile] wwaterboy 2012-10-01 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
No guns? [He looks disappointed and grimaces. What kind of a place has no weapons?] Wwell, a swword wwouldn't be bad. You don't havve a single long-barrelled rifle here?
onewayroad: (bastards getting in his way)

[personal profile] onewayroad 2012-10-01 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
The scale you're talking about is microscopic in comparison.

[lets out a big sigh. he's mentally exhausted at this point, and debating how many more details to throw in her face. It seems futile.]

Has anyone ever told you you're insane?

[he can wait for her response before making her talk more on these other things she's just brought up]
tenminutes: (See now you think it's good.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Well-- there was one guy who had them, but I didn't get a chance to figure out how. I can't find him anymore. I told you, thinks are way different than they were yesterday. If I can figure out how to get guns, I'll get me a pair of Beretta 92 pistols and.. A Browning BT99 for you.
tenminutes: (Don't believe in the sale fairy anymore.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Only a few times. I've been here long enough that I can tell you we can't age, though, so I've got a pass.

[ No you don't, Yuri! ]

I know people a lot worse but I haven't met them here yet. So you must've done something worth being given a second chance.
onewayroad: (cuz there's nothing else to do)

[personal profile] onewayroad 2012-10-01 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
Anyone with a five digit body count? I'm not arrogant enough to believe what little I've done to make up for it is ever gonna be enough.

. . . And how long have you been here that you can claim that?
tenminutes: (Feels bad man.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-01 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
Just the guys I watched murder my brother and sisters. Did you release an a-bomb or what? [ After all, Yuri got him down pretty quickly that first time... ]

Lost track. [ Anywhere from a couples year to.. who knows how long. It's never explicitly stated, just that she knows no one's going to age and that she's not surprised at someone being here for "3000 days".. ]
onewayroad: (I am the bones you couldn't break)

[personal profile] onewayroad 2012-10-01 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
No. [holds up one hand and waggles his fingers] It doesn't seem to be working right now, but it's very easy for me to kill someone with a single touch.

[quick sideglance toward the tree he'd been kicking]

Or destroying a tree with a light tap of my foot.

Now you know why I was fucking kicking that thing.

cry...

[personal profile] mashou 2012-10-01 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't pull down my pants, what are you talking about?!
marumayu: (pic#4696290)

[personal profile] marumayu 2012-10-01 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ SPUTTERS ] Who told you I was talking about something perverted?

[ groans ] I'll definitely catch more goldfish than you...
slave_of_suzumiya: (What are you planning this time?)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-01 09:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I remember the basics of stuff like that.
slave_of_suzumiya: (That's a tough one...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-01 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I mean, it's definitely odd to have no idea where you are or how you might have gotten there.
slave_of_suzumiya: (... What.)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-01 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
... "Hivvestem"?

(... Is that even a word?)

Uh, I'm Kyon, I guess.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're speaking nonsense)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-01 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
I wasn't expecting you to.
