Welcome, Participants

[mockmods]

Good morning, Participants. The time is now 7:30 AM.

[Where were you before this? Doesn’t matter, you’re here now, in an unfamiliar bed, surrounded by unfamiliar people, with a slightly-too-cheerful automated voiced chiming over a PA system to wake you up. Your pockets are empty, save for an unfamiliar smartphone type of device that comes alive under your touch, displaying, among other things, a map, a series of profiles, and a list of rules.]

It is understood that you may have questions; please be patient, and gather back in the Common Room in one hour. The Assistant will be present at this time to answer your questions. In the meantime, please feel free to explore the Facility at your leisure.

[The doors to the dorm areas are freely open from the inside, though you’ll find that it takes your electronic id to regain entry once you’ve left. Otherwise, it’s as the voice says, and you’ve got an hour to explore your new surroundings and get to know your fellow kidnappees.]

[Welcome to the Facility.]

[Shigeo had just saved his brother from being kidnapped by an evil organization, and now he woke up.. in an extremely unfamiliar place, with unfamiliar people in the same room as him. In his school uniform of all things.

Of course panic immediately seeps in, and his first thought is that he must have been attacked in his sleep -- but this early? Would they really have stroke just a couple hours after one of their branches was destroyed? They're not nice people so.. maybe. Just maybe.

Shigeo's never been much of a talker, but in this situation it helps to get information where you can. So he waits for everyone else to wake up, before speaking up in a soft, shy voice.]

Good morning. Um.. my name is Kageyama Shigeo. I don't think I've been here before.. have any of you?

[Well, he was told to be here in an hour, so he shows up about thirty or so minutes early just to be safe. He's sitting in a beanbag chair with his phone out in his hands, reading the profiles to kill time. He read the rules, and the term.. "terminated" has been stuck on his mind, but he doesn't quite understand it. Terminated? That's a scary term.. but maybe it means to beat people in a game. It mentioned team activities, so he's immediately thinking of relay races or ball games. Surely it's something like that.

Eventually, he reaches his hand out towards a chair, holding it for a few minutes before letting it drop with a sigh. He's had his psychic powers blocked before.. but he also had his brother help him figure out how to escape. Without his brother, he was useless. He's not good at strategies or any of that stuff.. so he feels extremely useless right now. Can't even rely on his powers to break out by brute force.. great. It's definitely not worrying in the slightest bit.

He sinks into his beanbag chair, so much that he's barely just limbs and a face sticking out of it, tapping away at the phone.]
