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.

[Otonashi thinks for a moment, trying to recall whether or not he knows the name. Instead though, he shakes his head.]

No, I don't think so. The name doesn't really ring a bell.

[A nod.] Yep. I didn't even know they could have festivals like this here.

Well, a festival is a pretty ordinary thing, so it makes sense to have one if this place is trying to be an ordinary school...

And one of them isn't mind-reading.

Who would want to read a bunch of guys' minds anyway? Gross.

[personal profile] thneed 2012-10-21 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Why would it be gross?

In my experience, some guys have issues keeping their brains out of their pants.

Oh! Ew. No. You've had bad experience.

Oh, okay. He might be at the baseball field right now.

[ Nevermind that Leon apparently hates baseball. ]
tenminutes: (Yes the Creep. T-rex arms and all.)

[personal profile] tenminutes 2012-10-21 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
There must be a lot of bad experiences to be had out there.

When you're alone, you completely avoid those.

Just try to stick it in once. Just to get a feel of it!

[ oh that sounds bad ]

[ He looks over, blankly. ]

The first course.
superhacker: (trying to hold on)

[personal profile] superhacker 2012-10-21 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
Just... stick it? Okay.

[ He's going for the dive! Sticking that scoop in the water and... it breaks. ]

Ah...
tsunball: (hey now you're an all star)

[personal profile] tsunball 2012-10-21 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I dunno if you're crazy or if you just have as many stomaches as a cow!

[ just conveniently wording it like that since like hell he knows how many that is.. ]
waltzhagen: ([Happy] A gift for you!)

[ Haine looks at it sadly, but refuses to give up on her!! ]

That happens! They have more you can use.

She didn't glance up from her cocoon, but only shook her head. As much as she wanted to believe it, even that didn't make sense. The reason was because of the very thing he had just stated himself.

"It should be impossible for a vampire to turn human." There wasn't a cure for former humans, except to drink the blood of the one who turned them. And even then that was only to stave off the madness. It didn't return them back to the former self. "The only way that could happen would be if a pureblood was to--"

She stopped mid-sentence. Ah--

Wide-eyed her head slowly lifted to look back at Zero. That kind of thing... for a pureblood to release Zero from such a fate, if she was here with him that was impossible, wasn't it? There was no one else.

"...You can still remember the past, though... ..."

[personal profile] instrumented 2012-10-21 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Zero went silent at that. Of course he remembered his past, just not what (supposedly) killed him. So what was she insinuating?

Arms folded cross his chest, he looked down upon Yuuki, a frown tugging at his expression once more, although not without confusion and bemusement.

"Obviously I remember my past." Stern, his brows furrowed. "What do you mean, 'If a pureblood was to. . .,' Yuuki?"
sunflowering: (Can't look you in the eye)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2012-10-21 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
"..."

She fell silent for a moment. A frown tugged at her lips and she glanced away. That was not an easy question. Knees pulled up tight against her, she licked her lips. It hurt to think back to that time. But she surprised herself, by opening her mouth to speak.

"The only way to turn a vampire into a human- " As far as she knew, at least. "-is for a pureblood to forfeit his or her life. As a result, the memories that person possesses though, are lost..."

She trailed off, the words heavy in the air. As it was, she knew, at that, she didn't need to expand upon the process. Gaze fallen, she hugged her knees tighter and stared at the floor.

"It's not typically done."
superhacker: (so I'll be your promise keeper)

[personal profile] superhacker 2012-10-21 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Um... I'll take those then.

[ And then the next minute will be all Chihiro trying and failing over and over and over... he's made quite the pile of broken scoops there. ]
instrumented: (That sudden ⌈change⌋ upon us)

[personal profile] instrumented 2012-10-21 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
(That. . .) His eyes widened. It sounded more like something out of a myth. Something practically unfathomable.

. . . But then again. (Wait. Yuuki, you—)

Suddenly it all made sense. Crystal clear, and not the idea that maybe Yuuki had done so, which is how they ended up here. No, something different. Something even more important, in that the blanks were finally being filled with answers.

"Yuuki. . ." Zero started. The concern edged his tone. Her demeanor, alone, said everything. "So that's how—" he swallowed. ". . . For Yuuki to be human, then, you were. . .
sunflowering: (Left somewhere outside of the puzzle)

[personal profile] sunflowering 2012-10-21 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
From the start she knew he'd realize what must have happened. The only possible explanation to how they had lived together for so long, and neither had known what she truly was. She nodded in response but didn't look up.

"Only my mother, though. Father was murdered."

A light nod, gaze cast downwards. Solemn. He didn't need to further press, the hows and whys didn't matter right now. He clearly was understanding, however. It showed.

Although hesitated briefly, Zero lightly placed a hand atop Yuuki's head. Silence stretched between them for several long moments.
