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.

You can always hope for the best, just make sure you're not setting yourself up for disappointment.
brotonashi: (Mechas save the world.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-14 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's true. [sigh...] I guess I'll just see what happens, huh?
slave_of_suzumiya: (It's not all bad)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-14 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, we're already dead, so at least you know they haven't gone and died or anything?

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-16 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, no, but they could have disappeared. In fact, from what I last remember, Yui already had disappeared, so I'm not sure why she's here in the first place. [Assuming that pink haired girl he saw was really her, of course.]
slave_of_suzumiya: (It's not worth the effort...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-16 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, that's a lot of people to disappear at once...
brotonashi: (Just as my heart is pure.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-16 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly. I mean, at the time, loads of people were disappearing already, but... somehow, this just doesn't look like the same thing. Something feels off.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-16 06:30 pm (UTC)(link)
So, the mystery thickens, huh?
brotonashi: (You look like you don't believe me.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-18 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[sigh.] Pretty much. I just hope it gets solved soon.
slave_of_suzumiya: (What are you planning this time?)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-18 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
And I'm guessing this festival came from nowhere too?
brotonashi: (He fell in love with a computer.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-21 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
[A nod.] Yep. I didn't even know they could have festivals like this here.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-21 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
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...

brotonashi: (Star Wars (AHAHA CHEY).)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-23 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
That's how it would seem, anyway. They normally don't have stuff like this though, despite that.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-23 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Huh... Well, I haven't really been here long enough to offer my own insight.
brotonashi: (Girls dig self-satisfied monsters.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-23 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
It's fine. I'm sure we'll figure it out eventually. Or I hope so, anyway.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're speaking nonsense)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-23 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Right... The festival will probably be long over well before we figure out what the deal with it was.
brotonashi: (Please don't run from me...)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-26 02:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Probably. I'd assume it's just for the day, so... but I'm not sure how comfortable I am with waiting even that long to figure this out.
slave_of_suzumiya: (That's a tough one...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-26 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Looks mostly like a normal festival to me...
brotonashi: (Why did the chicken cross the road?)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-29 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Seems normal, but it's still abnormal for this place. So I'm not sure how normal it actually it is, you know?
slave_of_suzumiya: (It's not worth the effort...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-29 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
So it's abnormally normal then?
brotonashi: (Nachos are good on occasion.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-10-30 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait, what? [...Wait, no, that makes sense.] ...er... Yeah, actually. That's a good way to put it.
slave_of_suzumiya: (You're still not listening...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-10-30 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
So exactly how normal is this place, well... normally?
brotonashi: (Girls dig self-satisfied monsters.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-11-01 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Well... I'm not really sure where to start. What has Yuri already told you?
slave_of_suzumiya: (That's a tough one...)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-11-01 10:03 am (UTC)(link)
We're dead, dying while dead is largely ineffective, the School Council President is some kind of Angel who attacks using some kind of light blade... And she really wants to take on god somehow.
brotonashi: (Because it wanted to become Chii.)

[personal profile] brotonashi 2012-11-03 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
She's not an angel... [He mumbles. Sigh. Guess he didn't speak with Yuri until after she spoke with Kyon.]

Right. Well, that's basically the gist of it, really. The students at the school are just NPCs, and they act just like regular high school students, aside from the lack of festivals and parties.
slave_of_suzumiya: (Okay... Now I'm curious.)

[personal profile] slave_of_suzumiya 2012-11-03 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah yeah, she mentioned the NPCs too.

... Not an angel? So what, is she an alien or something then?
