Peace Week

[mockmods]

[So, with introductions made, you're all left to your own devices for the time being. Explore, make friends, try not to go insane in your new surroundings. Maybe organize a game of that Trailseeker thing? Your time is your own.]

[You are woken every day at 7:30 AM by the same robotic voice that woke you on day one. At 11pm each night, a similar message plays reminding everyone about the start of quiet hours and dimming the lights.]

[If you want to talk to Penny, she can be found in the Security Office if she's not anywhere else in the Facility. Office hours appear to be whenever.]

[Date Unknown

Dear diary,
A lot has happened since I first woke up here. And you know? Before the entire thing where multiple people died, I got laid, and the school blew up, I think I would be freaking out about this more. But I look around me at all these people I've never seen before in my life and I ask myself: is this really so bad?

Sure, we might have all been kidnapped and that's potentially concerning but frankly I can't bring myself to give a damn. For all of the unfamiliar aspects of this situation, isn't it basically just high school all over again? Whoever brought us here even provided us with cute little roles to play. I'm "The Damaged," because someone out there really knows how to paint a target on a girl's back.

Let's just hope there's no boys with a penchant for 7-11 here.]

Ugh. typical cafeteria food.

[Veronica can mainly be found in the library, or the dining hall during mealtimes. She doesn't appear to have a particular area of interest in her reading material - basically, she pulled anything she even remotely found interesting off the shelves. Did she actually check out the books she's brought with her to the dining hall? Of course.

She is perpetually in possession of the notebook and blue pen provided and is often scribbling something or another down. Is it notes? Is it observations? Who knows. Her writing appears to be done mainly in some form of shorthand.]

Library

[mockmods]

[The invisible librarian spirits thank you for your conscientiousness, Veronica.]

[Or maybe those don't exist, who knows what this setting actually is yet. But whoever put that little checkout book there probably appreciates it.]

[More importantly though, how closely are you looking at the sign-out book as you're using it?]

Library

[mightdoriya]

[Izuku has spent most of the day here himself trying to see what he could find out here, which really hasn't been all that much. Veronica isn't the only one who has been taking books out of there, though most of those are just for reading whenever. There was only one unusual one he'd kept for studying purposes... He happens to take a seat nearby where she already is, seeing that she's writing...something. It makes him wonder.] Have you found anything out from these books?

library

[biolence]

[Above Veronica's head, Rosa has parkoured her way up onto the top of one of the bookshelves, ensconced in a shadowy corner with her notebook. Her intent had been to take notes while she's up here, the same as the girl down below her is doing, but mostly she's just watching people and sulking, because no matter how many times she threatens to kick someone's ass, she still isn't any closer to busting out of here.

Eventually, she gets bored, though. There's only so many hours someone can watch another person read and write. So she starts making spitballs.

Splat.

Sorry, Veronica.]

[mightdoriya]

[Well. It's been a day, and while the "assistant", if you could call it that, to the real mind behind all of this had revealed herself, Izuku didn't really feel much closer to an answer on any of this than he already had been...which hadn't been close at all. He'd spoken to a lot of people, and though he barely sleeps, the next day is for meeting the rest as well as getting a better lay of the land. He's awake at 6 AM, which is probably...weird as hell for a boy his age, but anyone in Dorm A1 may or may not be noting this as he's up and getting his clothes on, looking pensive. He doesn't actually leave the room until the morning announcement though, instead sitting on the edge of his bed and thinking. Izuku didn't actually know there was a Library here? But hot dang if he's not going to spend a lot of his time today here, mostly trying to see if there's anything of like...particular note in these books about this area. But he'll also be taking some back to his room for those expected, sleepless nights. Dinner is spent with Izuku sitting at one of the tables with a plate of spaghetti that he is very clearly not super jazzed for. He's sort of just...looking into it, poking at it with his fork as he tries to decide if it's safe for eating or not. Mostly he just missed the UA cafeteria...]

Library

[mockmods]

[Unfortunately there don't seem to be any books about the Facility itself, if that's what Izuku is looking for. There's one small volume that might catch his eye, if he's looking carefully, though.]

[It's a slim, stapled-together volume with cardstock cover, that almost looks homemade. It kind of sticks out among the more impressive-looking leather and paperbacked books that fill the rest of the shelves.]

din din

[hyaku]

[Honestly, Shigeo can't remember the last time he's even eaten something like spaghetti before. His mom usually cooks more traditionally Japanese food, so it's a little surprising but intriguing to have a big ol' plate of spaghet handed to him.

He doesn't really mind though, and he notices Izuku sitting by himself so he happily takes a seat across from him since he's one of the only people around Shigeo's age and thus one of the only people he's been able to connect with a little bit.]

Good evening, Midoriya-kun.

Dinner

[scratchitti]

Let me know if it kills you.

[Neku was walking by with his own plate... and after a moment of hesitation decides to just sit with Izuku. Feels like highschool, honestly]

Tuesday

[mockmods]

Today, the Dining Hall is serving:
Breakfast: Pancake Buffet
Lunch: Beans N' Weenies
Dinner: Taco Tuesday

[aragona]

[Sonia is still mad! Her being a vampire is public knowledge and she's trapped in this experimental facility until the Researcher feels like letting them go. She's stuck. Everything is awful.

So she has to find some way to escape. Yes, that's it. It's a test. She has to used what skills she has to find a way out, find a weakness in the system, break out. She's not staying here. She's not staying here.

Sonia stays in the Computer Room for most of the day, spending most of her time attempting to get into the computer files. If there is anything she can do that doesn't involve literally punching her way out, it's computers. Hopefully this time she won't download a pornsite virus to hide her tracks, but hey, this time it's not goint to be a rush job.

...After a while, she plays a few rounds of Oregon Trail. The leader is always Sonia, and the names of her family: Glochter, Sullivan, Halliwell, J. Wild. She seems to be doing okay until the hunting portions. Because she can't get to shoot a damn thing and OOPS fuck it everyone's starving.]

investigation

[clandestineideals]

[ Shinso isn't pleased, though he's taking the situation as best as he can, one day at a time. First things first, he is going to be walking straight into the ??? Room to investigate, because though there seems to be a lot of useless things in here, it might be worth seeing if there's anything that can be exploited in the foundation of this room for escape. Or...maybe someone left something behind. Who knows.

After that, he decides to head to the Library to grab some books. ]

Good to see that they have at least a nice collection.

[ Then he'll be seen heading back towards the Dorms for some shut eye and he'll have a few books with him as he does so. ]

Wednesday

[mockmods]

Today, the Dining Hall is serving:
Breakfast: Make Your Own Oatmeal Mix
Lunch: Kaptain Karp's Fish Logs
Dinner: Salisbury Steaks

[ryukendense]

[At breakfast, Yaiba's taken the "make your own" part of the menu pretty seriously. He's set out a bunch of bowls with cereals and whatever else he can really find to use as garnish, and such a level of organization seems to put him in a brighter mood, as he sings to himself as he crafts together his Legend of Breakfast.]

...with tiny marshmallows and fruits gathered from the highest mountains in the land of the dragons of heaven, bearing his Ryukenden, hence, Yaiba is having breakfast~ ♪

[He almost looks like he's waiting for someone else to continue for a bit, and - after no one does - his ears flop slightly and he sits to partake in his now melancholy breakfast.

A little later, he's in the common room, flicking through the games they have to keep themselves entertains. He pulls out a manual, and, not recognizing it at all from his own library, he'll be asking anyone in here with him about it.]

Have you heard of this [He waves the pamphlet] Trailseeker The Third-and-a-half?

Investigation

[scratchitti]

[Neku is out and about investigating today- first by pulling out a lot of the gaming books in the common room, pawing through them and fiddling with the dice. Looks complicated...

Later in the day you might see him stalking out the Security Room, trying to catch Penny not locking it behind her and... failing. Oh well, he could use some company?

And in the evening he might be seen in the Crafts Room... drawing?]

Thursday

[mockmods]

Today, the Dining Hall is serving:
Breakfast: French Toast Sticks
Lunch: "Chicken" Nuggets
Dinner: Pierogi and Polish Sassage

[in4apounding]

[Maybe you've seen your Assistant over the past few days, maybe not. She's been here and there around the Facility, if mostly confined to the Security office.]

[Today, though, she can be found in the Greenhouse. Maybe she's checking up on the various plantlife, making sure they're properly watered -she does seem to be periodically looking at something on her smartphone- but mostly she just seems to be enjoying the not-sunshine and simulated nature.]

[Or maybe you're literally anywhere else in the Facility, and she approaches you. Maybe cautiously, depending on who you are, but approaching.]

Salutations! How are you settling in?

[mightdoriya]

[Izuku was starting to get restless. He was used to having such a rigorous training schedule thanks to school that the inactivity here had been making him a little stir crazy. Sure, a break now and then was fine, but...the knowledge that he couldn't use his Quirk at all made him very, very anxious. You might catch Izuku very briefly at Breakfast, but he's practically jogging through the kitchen as he grabs a couple french toast sticks to take...somewhere, putting one in his mouth before he's off again. Unless you stop him, first. For the rest of the day after, Izuku can be found in the Greenhouse. At first he can be seen doing various kinds of stretches before he launches into full on push-ups, sit-ups, all manner of exercises. And he doesn't just do a couple, he does well up into a hundred of each before he breaks for a bit. After that, he's on his feet for some proper training practice. He has nobody to practice with, and no Quirk to utilize, but that doesn't mean he can't still go through the motions. He imagines invisible enemies around him and dodges them accordingly, darting across the grass and leaping like a jackrabbit, bounding off of one of the trees at one point before he lands and skids, panting. It's a lot for a 15 year-old to be doing, but he doesn't stop. He keeps at it until it's well into the night, and only then does he head to bed for the first actual sleep he's had simply through working himself to exhaustion.]

investigation

[windowsexplorer]

[Meredith's been busy all week, discovering all kinds of interesting things! All these nonfiction books and documentaries might not be other people's idea of a good time, but she hasn't seen most of them before, and that makes them interesting to her. Especially since there's a whole bunch of regular history and science she just? Doesn't know?

For something more interesting to normal people, she spends the morning in the media room finishing up a Bill Nye the Science Guy marathon.

Later in the day she makes her way to the greenhouse. She meets Penny here, but that's not going to stop her from investigating on her own here.

In what may be a surprise, she also shows up in the dining hall for both lunch and dinner. At lunch the quotes around "chicken" have her curious, and she tries them to see if she can identify them. Similarly, she turns up for dinner because she wants to know what a pierogi is. In both cases, she seems to enjoy the food quite a lot for a robot who theoretically shouldn't have to eat.]

[aragona]

[So apparently there were blood bags in the vending machines the entire time and the robot never bothered to mention it to the resident vampire. If Sonia had never attempted to fight her before, she would have done it right there and then.

She bangs her fists on the glass several times before noticing the ID card.

Swipe.

And there's the blood bag, nothing wrong about it...apparently. It could be cursed, it could make her bound to the vampire that provided this. But you know what? She's hungry.

Sorry to anyone in the dining hall. Sonia tears the plastic open with her fangs and drinks the entire thing right there in the middle of the room.]

Friday

[mockmods]

Today, the Dining Hall is serving:
Breakfast: Belgian Waffle Buffet
Lunch: Barney's Build-A-Sub
Dinner: Pizza Party Night

LOCKED

[mockmods]

[It's been a peaceful week so far, hasn't it? Aside from the kidnapping thing, it almost might be nice here, for some of you. And hey, it's Friday! Maybe you can ignore the morning message and sleep in a little, enjoy the weekend.]

[Unfortunately, it's actually about thirty minutes before the typical wakeup message when a loud alarm tone screams across the facility's loudspeaker system for a moment before the automated system announces-]

AN UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS ATTEMPT IS BEING MADE IN THE [a brief moment of unintelligible static] ROOM. REPEAT, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS ATTEMPT IN PROGRESS.

[It's the same voice that makes the morning and evening announcements and welcomed you on arrival, but much, much more forceful than it's ever been before.]

[And either way, it sends Penny tearing out of her security office at a dash.]

Post Punishment

[mightdoriya]

[Izuku talks to the Researcher for a while, or at least as long as his adreneline holds out. It isn't long until everything comes crashing in on him and he has to leave the scene despite knowing that...no, feeling like he has a responsibility to stay there. A responsibility as someone who wants to be a hero. But even he knows when there's nothing to be done. You can't fight an enemy you can't see, and you can't bring someone who has died back to life. So he leaves to give himself some space to breathe. Izuku can be found in one of the dorm hallways since he hadn't quite made is back to his room, standing facing the wall on A1's side. He's standing there with both fists balled up and pressed to the wall along with his forearms, both bracketed around his head that's likewise been pressed to the wall. And he's...sobbing. Bitterly, angrily, it's hard to fully say, but he's definitely crying.]

Saturday

[mockmods]

Today, the Dining Hall is serving:
Breakfast: Chef's Surprise
Lunch: Mystery Meat
Dinner: Mystery "Meat"

[hyaku]

[Well it's saturday, and for any normal person it'd mean time to party or relax and have a great day while you're off from school or your job.

For the people in the facility, it means having a night to sleep off whatever yesterday was and still wake up feeling like shit.

And this is exactly the case for Shigeo. He hoped getting a good night of rest would make him feel better but he laid awake for hours thinking about it and when he finally got some sleep, he had a nightmare.. so he woke up tired and a little frazzled and wishing he could just go back to bed. But what good would that do if he just had another nightmare?

So first things first: breakfast.

He heads into the dininghall first thing in the morning and receives his breakfast like normally, only this time when he takes a seat he has a look of dread on his expression. The food is.. "Chef's Surprise" and for some reason after witnessing someone being burned to death he really doesn't feel like eating some nondescript food right now. So instead he just pokes at it with his fork, wishing he had a big plate of omurice in front of him instead.

After he eventually gets some food down, Shigeo heads off to the greenhouse where he decides to get some exercise in. He doesn't really have anything comfortable enough to run in, but he makes due with his school uniform. He leaves the jacket neatly folded by a tree and rolls up his sleeves and pant-legs, and then he jogs laps around the entire greenhouse.]

Fight.. on.... fight....... on.......

[He chants that as he jogs, looking sick from running after just 15 or so minutes.

After running off his inhibitions, he's finally seen in the media room....... watching Teletubbies. He has his legs pulled up on his chair, holding his knees to his chest and his expression is extremely unreadable. He's not sure if he's enjoying it, if he's disturbed, or if he's just watching to think about something other than the smell of burnt flesh. Probably all the above, to be honest. At least it's better than boring science documentary whatever. He's heard enough about science from the crazy robot controlling this place.]
