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.

[ That's fine - Izumo just thinks she's repeating it to remember it well. What relieves her is that someone who thinks her idea is worth it, and that's worth her attention more than anything else right now. ]

Furude-san...

Ah, but it's a really complicated plan! I don't know how to talk to people, and we don't have many students who can help--

[ Rika herself has a difficult time talking to people herself. It was usually Keiichi's words that helped her move the hearts of people and get them to do something. Though, she doesn't believe they need to be good speakers. Rika is already finding potential allies through minor observations. ]

...mii. We should seek out those that possibly can. Have you come across any students that act differently from the rest?

[marumayu]

There's that boy from my class, that redhead gorilla and this guy who thinks he's a knight.

[ so she didn't get their names...

WAIT, SO KYON WAS NORMAL!? ]

That gorilla can't talk to anyone properly, so he's out.

[miiracles]

[ She doubts Izumo means a literal gorilla, so... ]

Mii? What happened when you tried to speak to him?

[marumayu]

That monkey... he teased me about my eyebrows and pushed me to the ground! [ Shaking her fists!!! Oh Rika, it was terrible! ]

[miiracles]

...

[ Wow, you're an amusing person. Rika reaches out and stands on her tiptoes to give Izumo a gentle pat on the head. Comfort? It's her headpats of pity~. ]

There, there. Maybe I could try speaking with gorilla-san.

[marumayu]

[ What is this? Izumo's speechless. She never expected this sort of treatment from Rika, so she just stands there with her mouth ajar. ]

Don't get hurt...

[miiracles]

[ Have a few more head rubs before she pulls her hand back. ]

I'll be careful. I'm a cat... I'm far more smarter than a gorilla. Meow, meow.

[ ...Balling up her hands into paws and moving them up and down. ]

[marumayu]

[ What's with this girl? She's strangely cute. ]

They are better than gorillas in all sorts of ways... Um, right! [ She shakes her head to snap out of her trance. ] I'll leave him to you, meow. [ MEOW!? ]
