DiscoDude: ---BEGIN SESSION---
DiscoDude: Session logging commenced
GM: 3/13 | Morning
GM: It’s looking like rain today.
Serea: has a delicate-looking lace parasol which also doubles as an industrial-strength umbrella.
Serea: It would take a rather severe hailstorm to dampen her day.
Gavrein: Gavri has a Red Dot parasol with her, she specially hates getting soaked.
Reality Glitch: Sleep mode terminated. Booting main processor. Wetware to cyberware connections stable. Date: 3/13; Temperature: 66 degrees Fahrenheit; Humidity: Likely to precipitate; Time: three-point-three hours before scheduled mass education session.
Ametrine Stretched and yawned as she awoke from yet another dreamless sleep. "Next verse, same as the first."
Ametrine climbed out of bed and meandered to the cupboard. Looking inside revealed that she was out of coffee grounds.
Processing; please wait.... .... .... .... Processing completely. No coffee located.
"@#$%! I forgot. I've got a little extra time before I need to leave for scho--"
Hygiene status: Needs a shower.
"@#$%! #%@$!" Ametrine, thankfully, had installed automatic censorship of her voice ever since she learned Common profanity.
After a good wash and waxing, Ametrine left for the corner. While she walked, she once again reviewed the syllabii for her courses in full detail. Fortunately, her carapace was waterproof in case it rained.
After grabbing the ingredients for mourning drink, Ametrine returned to her routine, ending with the public transportation ride to the school house.
Surfnet access granted. Welcome student 1101001; your entrance exam has been reviewed in full.
Good Ametrine thought, I can finally be done worrying about that.
GM: It can be assumed that despite the drizzle, students will be going straight to school. Mr. Malachi and Mr. Fitztantrum are waiting at the gate again.
FITZTANTRUM: “Look alive! Today’s the day we’re introducing you to the clubs. If you want to sign up for them, or start a club of your own, the window to do so closes at the end of the week! Don’t dally!”
MALACHI: “You heard the man~ Remember that without special faculty approval, you’ll be limited to one each of the athletic and culture clubs. We don’t want our students to overextend themselves, after all. Oh, Gavrein, Serea, I want to see both of you after school today. Can you both see me in the teacher’s lounge at some point when it’s time to leave?”
Serea: silently nods in agreement. Don't make waves, don't make waves...
Reality Glitch: Heh. Clubs. Ametrine was never much one for social interaction that intense or intimate.
Reality Glitch: Maybe a club focused on academic study. Strength in numbers and whatnot.
Reality Glitch: Submission for "Study Group" Club sent.
WAIT! NO! She didn't mean to actually do that!
Reality Glitch: "Eh. Probably for the better."
Serea: makes a note to check out the clubs. Surely there'll be something arts-and-crafts related.
Gavrein: "Oh, sure Teacher!" Gavri Is excited about the groups, so many to choose from and she could only choose two!
GM: 3/13 | Daytime
GM: The first half of the day is taken up by the various representatives of the athletic clubs trying to sell the various students on joining them. Of them, three in particular stand out, whether it’s due to their professionalism, or their prestigious reputation when compared to other schools.
GM: “Oh hey, hey hey hey! C’mere!” An excited-looking block bunny bounds in the direction of your general class group. “You guys should totally join the tennis club! Our aces are gonna be dominating the seeds this year, so yeah if you wanna get in on that you gotta be up to snuff, and if you wanna be up to snuff, ya gotta join the club!”
GM: (You get the feeling that participating in the tennis club can help improve your Quick. But you only get to join one athletics club, so it’s probably best to wait for your other options.)
GM: ((Er, sorry if this feels stilted.))
Reality Glitch: ((It's the text the video games give isn't it?))
GM: (No, I’m making it up as I go, based on how clubs worked in previous games.)
Reality Glitch: ((Granted, I, personally, would prefer you just telling us straight, rather than try to make it sound diegetic.))
Serea: (i'm fine with diegetic, so long as it doesn't take up too much time)
Gavrein: (^^)
GM: Another representative walks up after the block bunny bounds away, this one being a lithe Vanguard with a haughty swagger. “Hm...” She studies the group. “I see potential. The gymnastics club would be happy to have you, if you think you can handle it. Don’t worry about showing off too much; that’s the whole point.”
GM: (You get the feeling that participating in the Gymnastics Club can help you improve your Flashy.)
GM: After she leaves, she’s replaced by a Sphinx with exceptionally long and toned legs. “I think some of you are probably thinking of skipping athletics entirely. I wouldn’t blame you, honestly. I was in a similar position not long ago...” He’s practically exuding intensity now. “However! There are plenty of opportunities even for those who aren’t good at traditional sports! Like our Cycling Club! All it is is just what many of you do every day, but so much more! The fires of passion may push you above and beyond what you thought was possible!” He seems to calm down. “I know it did for me. If you look upon the other athletic clubs in envy of what others can achieve, then I implore you to join the cycling club, and find your own achievement!” Is he... Is he crying? He marches off.
GM: (You get the feeling that participating in the Cycling Club will help increase your Forceful.)
GM: (Sorry for the word dump.)
Serea: is a little disappointed there's no ballet club, but Gymnastics sounds like a good second choice.
Reality Glitch: "Eh. I'll probably just devote all of my time to Study Group Club."
GM: (Assuming there is a Study Group club.)
Gavrein: Gavrein already has her fingers in her lips, debating which club to join, it seems such a hard choice...
Reality Glitch: ((Ametrine submitted an application for one.))
GM: (I never planned a Study Group club to be an option, but... I think I can work with this.)
Reality Glitch: ((Increases Clever.))
GM: (I was planning on Chess Club for that, but I have an idea.)
Reality Glitch: ((Study Group increases Confidant level instead?))
GM: (And if you don’t like it, Ametrine can easily retract her application. 😉 )
Reality Glitch: ((Sure.))
Gavrein: "Hmmm, Cycling....or Tennis?" She is clearly having a hard time deciding
GM: (You’ll see.)
GM: (So is Ametrine just going to skip out on Athletics? It won’t prevent you from picking a Culture Club.)
Reality Glitch: ((Yeah; she'll be skipping.))
GM: (O-oh.)
Reality Glitch: ((Is that not O.K.?))
GM: (Guess that means one of these characters is going to be shunted into the corner...)
Reality Glitch: ((Am I playing too in character?))
Serea: (i think so)
Reality Glitch: ((I'm sure you can find another way to bring them in.))
GM: (Not... Really?)
GM: (Not that I can think of, anyways.)
Gavrein: After what feels like hours of deciding, Gavri decides to join the Tennis club!
Reality Glitch: ((Well....organic storytelling.))
GM: (And from what I can tell, there’s no benefit to not signing up for one, even if you never end up attending. Maybe I should have made it so that signing up is mandatory, even if attendance wasn’t, to avoid this...)
Serea: (^)
Gavrein: ((how about forcing ametrine, in that case?))
Reality Glitch: ((Heh.))
GM: (Have another “glitch?”)
Gavrein: ((i mean, not us as players but as characters))
Reality Glitch: ((Give me a moment; I'll right up an excuse.))
GM: (Keep in mind that Athens confirmed that Renda is in Gymnastics, so right now, the Cycling Club is the one in peril (unless someone wants to change their vote).)
Reality Glitch: ((Good (+3) thing that's what I was going to go with anyway.))
Reality Glitch: Ametrine thinks for a moment. After realizing the benefits of training herself to sustain the higher speeds that initially whisked her away from the prying eyes of her new H.R.P.S. buddy, she decides that the Cycling Club may be a Good (+3) idea.
Reality Glitch: -test-
Reality Glitch: =test=
GM: Now for the latter half of the day; which is much the same, except now it’s the Culture Clubs trying to sell themselves.
Reality Glitch: +test+
GM: (I believe you’re looking for ) Reality Glitch: ((Now that I think about it: Ametrine probably could get the special exemptions to join multiple clubs.)) GM: (That’d have to be a stunt.) Reality Glitch: ((Alright. Books it is then.)) Reality Glitch: ((Maybe a Book Club just to get more time to benefit from **Speed Reading**.)) GM: The first to approach you is a nervous looking Flowercat with thick glasses. “U-uhm, hey there,” she says, “I-I’m representing the C-Chess Club. But- But I mean, we teach some pretty advanced stuff, so um... D-Don’t feel bad about switching if it’s too much for you... o-okay?” She scurries off, looking like she’s trying to hold back a panic attack. GM: (You get the feeling that joining the Chess Club would help you improve your Clever.) Reality Glitch:Odd Reality Glitch: ((What about the Book Club idea? I'm sure if withdrawals are acceptable, so are alterations.)) GM: (Er, I was planning on giving you two sets of three options, one for each Approach.) Reality Glitch: ((I guess that means Book Club would be too versatile in that case.)) Reality Glitch: ((Since Books can increase any approach, depending on which book it is.)) GM: Before you even notice, a Rock Candies in a flowery smock seems to almost glide up to you. “Aaaaaaaart Cluuuuuub.” They do a little hop. “You’ll be amazed by what you can make~ And so will I~ Art is strange that way. But you do need some technique, too...” This seems to give them pause; then they start beaming that airy smile again. “I’m sure that will come, though~” They start to...*spin* off down the hallway, you guess. “Think about iiiiiiiiit~” GM: (You feel like participating in the Art Club will help you improve your Careful.) Gavrein: (hey team i think we found the weirdo) Gavrein: (wait we aren't a team yet) Reality Glitch:PROXIMITY ALERT! PHYSICAL CONTACT IMMINENT! Ametrine nearly jumps out of her carapace with how close the Rock Candy gets to her. Reality Glitch: ((I'm find it a little unfortunate that there'll only be clubs for approach increases and not other possibilities.)) GM: Finally, as the club representatives start to pack up, the last noteworthy club leader almost walks into your group; a gruff-looking Wolf wearing a punk jacket and the starts of a pompadour. “Oh- What the- Watch it! ... Say, you wanna join the “Study Group” Club?” He seems to take a while registering your facial expressions. “... Er, but FYI, we don’t actually *study*, per say, it’s more like, um...” He glances around. “It’s mostly just goofing off and playing games... with stakes, if you’re interested.” He gives a wink before walking away all suspicious like. GM: (You feel as though participating in the, er... “Study Group” Club might help with increasing Sneaky.) Reality Glitch:Well .... there goes my idea of having a club to actually study withAmetrine thought. Applications for "Cycling Club" and "Chess Club" have been submitted.`
GM: (FYI, Athens thinks it’d be funny if Renda joined the Study Group Club before realizing what it actually was, if that changes how you’re going to pick. XD)
Reality Glitch: ((No; Ametrine is a model student, through and through.))
Serea: gives him a suspicious look. She knows what he's going on about, but this sounds like it might be up her alley.
Gavrein: This was a no brainer, Chess was such an interesting game...Chess Club it is!
Gavrein: Not that she knew how to play it, but she will learn!
GM: (Hm... Thought for sure someone would pick the Art Club...)
GM: (Maybe a retcon to “Arts and Crafts” would sweeten the deal for Serea?)
Reality Glitch: (( <@!Serea> ))
Serea: (hmmmmm)
Serea: (well, if you insist)
GM: (Is a retcon necessary, BTW?)
Serea: considers that maybe consorting with the school's "underworld," such as it is, might be unwise. She decides to sign up for the arts club instead.
Reality Glitch: ((You did mention that Serea was looking for something like that.))
GM: (Alright, ready to move on to After School? Malachi’s about to start hinting at his true colors, and I’m thinking it might be a good idea for Ametrine to run into a mascot character right around now (which in this game won’t serve as a mechanically helpful character; just that leaving all the exposition to a PC belonging to someone who’s never played P5 seems like a bad idea).)
Reality Glitch: ((Ametrine can still be the mascot. I can just let you type out the exposition and say that Ametrine said it.))
GM: (O-okay. What would she be doing at around this time, then?)
Reality Glitch: ((Are the exams something that get passed out during class?))
GM: (They’ll be posted in the hall after school tomorrow. Yeah, I know it’s a day later than before, but I realized that there has to be some room for some “offending incidents” to happen before grades get posted.)
Gavrein: ((Ah, yes, im ready here))
Reality Glitch: ((Like what?))
GM: (Like what’s about to happen involving getting Serea and Gavrein sentenced to detention (assuming you guys are okay with this sort of preplanning).)
Reality Glitch: ((I don't remember the circumstances surrounding that. Is this directly linked to the exam-tampering?))
GM: (Yeah, he’s about to try and get... “favors” out of at least one of them, and I imagine they ain’t gonna have it.)
GM: (<@!Serea>, <@!Gavrein>, got all that?)
Gavrein: (got it.)
Serea: (got it)
GM: (BTW, I might be going out to dinner soon, so I might have to pause, possibly for a few hours, possibly for today.)
Gavrein: (hm, Alright)
Reality Glitch: ((<@!GM>. To Answer original question of what Ametrine is doing now (assuming the clubs aren't meeting today): She'll be reading her books.))
GM: (Er... Still in the intro, but okay.)
GM: (Alright, seems like it was a false alarm - Birthday dinner is happening tomorrow on the day of the party, not today on my actual birthday.)
Renda: (Oh hey, happy birthday!)
Gavrein: (wait today is your birthday, Happy B-Day!)
GM: 3/13 | After School
GM: The final bell rings; Day 2 of orientation is over, and students are free to leave the premises. However, two students are to report to the faculty office, among others.
Serea: sighs as she heads to Malachi's office. It's not good that a teacher's taken notice of her this early, but...there'll be worse consequences if she doesn't show.
Reality Glitch: Ametrine heads to the school library for some quiet reading.
Gavrein: Gavrein is skipping through the halls to the teacher's room, today was a good day, and the teacher calling for them was certainly nothing to worry about!
GM: (XD)
GM: The pair arrives at the faculty office at around the same time, just as a male student exits himself, stuffing a wallet into his pocket as he does so. “Oh, uh, Malachi says he’ll send Missy out to let one of you in, so stay put.” He moves to walk off.
Serea: takes a seat nearby and quietly practices some needlework.
Serea: It's as much to calm her nerves as anything. The sight of the wallet makes her wonder just what exactly it is Mr. Malachi has in mind.
Gavrein: Gavrein sits, she starts playing with her Compact to kill time.
GM: Meanwhile, Ametrine’s reading is not exactly in peace. A small group of grumpy looking 1st years walk up to her. “Lookit’ them an’ all their books. This is what I was talking about, guys; you gotta read a bullshit amount just to get anywhere.”
Reality Glitch: "Actually: I'm reading these for fun."
Reality Glitch: "If you notice, this is a novel, not a textbook."
GM: Eventually, a cat comes out wiping her mouth and... looking a tad nauseous. “U-um...” she says, “Malachi will, um... see Gavrein now, he said.”
Reality Glitch: "Though, I do agree that the current school system is more than a tad inefficient with it's method of information dissemination."
GM: “Wazzat? You read books for fun? Who does that?!” “A smart-ass, that’s who!” chimes the second one. “Who even has enough time to do that,” muttered the third, “I could barely study enough to pass back in middle school...”
Gavrein: "Mhm, Alright!" She enters through the door with an optimistic mood!
Gavrein: "So, Professor Malachi, what did you want to see me for?"
Reality Glitch: Ametrine honestly herself with how well she manage to get the translation function of the H.R.P.S. to work. Al she needed to due was start an in-app conversation with herself.
GM: “Ah, Gavrein! So good to see you.” Malachi gives a toothy grin. He appears to be alone. He drops the smile. “Well, it’s... about Kyben. Have a seat.”
Reality Glitch: Though, the reverse wasn't true. She wasn't sure what the other students meant by "@$$".
Gavrein: '...Eh?' her happy cheery expression changes to a somewhat serious one....about Kyben? She quickly sits
Reality Glitch: ((I'm sure the other student's would comment on Ametrine's exotic appearance as well.))
GM: “Well, to put it bluntly, his score isn’t great. Not terrible, but not great, either. I remember you telling me once that he was really smart. Is that still true?” He’s making a show of looking worried. “Because as things stand, you actually scored higher than him.”
GM: “Hey, she looks like she has a computer built into her head! Maybe that’s why she has enough free time to do all this nerdy-ass stuff?” “Yeah, I bet you’re right!” Number 2 definitely seems to be Number 1’s yes-man. “That’s hardly fair,” says Number 3, “isn’t it?”
Gavrein: her voice cracks a little at the beginning, as if it was a punch to her stomach that she didn't expect "I-I trust my brother is smarter than me both in wars and in studying, this must be a mistake...!" this didn't make sense at all!
Reality Glitch: "I'm sorry; still learning Common. What's that word you keep using to describe me? Ass?"
GM: (No reaction to the other stuff they’ve been saying? XD)
GM: “It means butt,” Number 3 says flatly.
Reality Glitch: ((She's taking it as a compliment of her intelligence.))
Reality Glitch: Ametrine's face went from mild smile to a deep frown. "Why would you do that?"
GM: “I know this must seem unexpected, Gavrein. Still, I do have a grading curve I’m allowed to use if there’s a misunderstanding or if the student doesn’t test well, but is otherwise brilliant. I can only give those out to those I’m intimately familiar with, and can therefore vouch for them. There is an allowable step of removal, if I were to be intimately familiar with someone who knew the student in question well.”
Reality Glitch: ((Oh. :disgust: "Intamite".))
Serea: (oh my god he really is coming onto her)
Gavrein: "W-what do you mean...?" Something started eating the corner of her mind.
GM: (Has the other stuff they said not caught up to Ametrine yet?)
GM: RG: “In this case,” Number 1 says, “it means jerk. Thinking you’re so smart.”
Reality Glitch: "When did I ever give that impression?"
((I think it's more that it hasn't caught up with me (the player).))
Reality Glitch: "Lots of people like reading books. It doesn't automatically make someone 'higher than thou'." Ametrine does a little gesture in mocking of the kind of people who could be described as such.
GM: “Well... If you and I were to start getting... intimate, and get to know each other that way, I might be willing to bump up a letter grade or two. Maybe yours too.” His hand moves over to Gavrein’s side. “You didn’t do all that well, yourself.”
GM: “Looking at you makes me sick,” says Number 1, “here we are, struggling past tests ‘n’ shit, while you just do it like it’s nothing, and it’s because you have a fucking computer stuck in your brain, isn’t it?!”
Gavrein: Gavrein Instinctively stops the hand from moving any further with her own, that feeling on the back of her mind spread as if it was a deadly virus, she tried to focus in the conversation "What...? I didn't do well neither? That has to be a mistake, This isn't making any sense, and i don't like it....!" Agitation started spilling through her tone.
Reality Glitch: "I'll admit, I think a little faster." Ametrine, retracts her posture, almost shy or embarrassed. "But it's mostly hard work, initiative, and finding how I learn best, that's gotten me where I am today. I'm .... willing to share what I know, if you think you'd learn better from a person, rather than a book."
GM: “O-oh, of course, there’s more than one way to be intimately familiar with someone. For instance, I can... borrow money from you. Entrusting someone with... say, 50M is an excellent way of proving trust... Unless you want to go back to what I was implying before~?” His hand, having retracted, is now moving toward his zipper.
GM: (If and when Gavrein has finally had it, make sure Serea can hear it.)
Reality Glitch: ((Huh. Thought Ametrine was going to be the one Malachi artificially lowered the grades of.))
GM: (Oh, you’ll see. 😉 )
Reality Glitch: ((Oh dear. -_-))
GM: “What?! You calling us stupid?!” “Hey! What’s going on here?!” An albino Eagle cutting a crisp figure in her student council uniform storms into the library, followed by a shifty looking Weasel in the same uniform.
Gavrein: That thought-virus starts taking another form, it made her get up, albeit slowly. "P-professor, I don't feel so well..." that was an excuse, but she wasn't that dumb.
GM: “... No,” says Malachi, “I think you’re feeling fine, Gavrein. Please, stay a while, and I’m sure we can find some method by which we can work this out.” He moves to grab her hand.
Reality Glitch: "Not at all! I know what it's like to be in your situation: the school system back in Teslic Yard is broken; I had to learn how to teach myself. Just thought you'd appreciate a solution to your problems being handed out for free."
GM: “This bitch thinks she knows what’s best for us like some kinda smart-ass!” Number 1 is fuming, but for once, Number 2 isn’t in synch. “Uh,” he says, “dude, you kinda make us sound like the bad guys when you say it like that.” Number 3 is ducking out of the whole situation, meanwhile. The Eagle does not appear to be amused with them.
Gavrein: That second makes her walk back, a bad memory sprays into her mind as her eyes sharpen "Don't Touch me." However, she felt that wasn't even enough, no, she snapped:

"D-DON'T. TOUCH ME, YOU PSYCHO!"

That could easily be heard through the halls of the entire school, she quickly realised this and stormed off the room.
Reality Glitch: By the look on Ametrine's now very nervious face, you'd expect her to be sweating bullets, if it wasn't for her partially metallic biology.
Serea: throws open the door before Gavrein leaves.
Serea: "...what's going on in here," she says, as if she were the teacher and the two inside both students.
Gavrein: Gavrein sneaks through Serea, running through the halls.
Reality Glitch: This is why I don't talk to people!
Serea: glares at Mr. Malachi. She's lost her composure. There's no recovering from this.
Serea: As she evaluates her options - "continuing to glare" seems like her safest bet right now - she realizes she's seen the other girl's face before. The unknown "Friend" on the HRPS interface...
GM: (Shit, if it just ends like that, there wouldn’t be much reason for detention.)
Reality Glitch: ((Talking to me, or Ryu and Revo?)
GM: (Ryu and Revo.)
Gavrein: (wouldn't "Running through the halls" be enough for detention?)
Reality Glitch: ((You could have Malachi get aggressive, then have him blame the damages on the students.))
GM: (That’s exactly what I was thinking, RG. It never occurred to me that the detention doesn’t necessarily have to be directly because of what went down in this room.)
Serea: (well Serea's still staring him down)
Reality Glitch: (("Questioning/Resisting Authority" could also very well be the reason.))
GM: Malachi looks downright panicked. “A-and what are you staring at?!”
Reality Glitch: ((What about Ametrine's situation?))
GM: “That’s detention for both of you,” she says at the two still present, “I think the teachers would agree with me that you still need to learn some things about bullying.” She almost spits out that last word.
Serea: "What exactly happened in here? What was that girl talking about?" She steps forward.
GM: While they slink off, Ametrine could notice that the weasel next to the Eagle was staring at her.
Reality Glitch: ((Weasel meaning "Number 1"?))
GM: (No, the student council weasel that came with the Eagle.)
GM: “Nothing! Absolutely nothing,” says Malachi, “and in fact, you’re just in time. We have to talk about your test scores, miss Saunce.”
Reality Glitch: `Don't make eye contact. Don't make eye contact.
[Eye contact achieved]

%@$!`

Serea: continues to look at him suspiciously for a moment, then her expression softens and she sits down. All the same, she finds herself fidgeting with the needle in her pocket.
Serea: "All right, then. I have applied myself to my studies and I believe you will my find my scores satisfactory." She raises an eyebrow. "Unless there is something you find amiss?"
GM: (BRB; dinner)
Reality Glitch: Ametrine quickly goes back to reading her book; not even caring that she started the page over from the beginning.
GM: (Back.)
GM: “About that,” says Malachi, “your test results aren’t looking so healthy. You might even have a D, if my first go-over is right.”
Reality Glitch: ((Anything more with Ametrine, or is that it for her until the evening?))
GM: (That’s it.)
Reality Glitch: (( <@!Serea> ))
Serea: "...that's not possible," Serea says flatly.
Reality Glitch: (( <@!GM> ))
GM: (BRB)
Reality Glitch: ((Same here. I'll let you know when I'm back.))
GM: (I’m back.)
Reality Glitch: ((Pretty sure it's your turn; <@!GM>.))
GM: (Ah, you’re back too. Good.)
Reality Glitch: ((Not yet; no.))
GM: “Pretty sure it is. There is a substantial grading curve I can grant to students, if they really think there had to have been a mistake, but the clause requires that I be intimately familiar with them in order to reliably ascertain whether they actually deserve it.”
Serea: narrows her eyes. "This is highly inappropriate conduct," she says, reading between the lines. "You know I can report you. In fact I intend to as soon as this conversation is over." She makes as if she's about to rise up from her seat.
Reality Glitch: ((DON'T TELL THEM YOUR PLAN!))
Gavrein: ((Shhhh, that's the idea))
GM: “What? I didn’t say anything untoward, did I? I think it’s you that’s displaying improper conduct, miss Saunce.” He gets up, perhaps sensing that he shouldn’t push himself onto this one. “In fact, you can join miss Gavrein in detention tomorrow, and think to yourself about making horrible assumptions about faculty!” He sits back down in a huff. “Speaking of which, I need to write a report on how she was running in the halls. You are excused, miss Saunce.”
Gavrein: ((That's detention for me, when will I learn))
GM: (Admittedly, this is him in “panic” mode.)
Serea: glares at him. Detention isn't so bad. "Good day, Mr. Malachi." And she walks out.
GM: (Everyone ready for a quick Evening?)
Gavrein: (Sure)
GM: 3/13 (TUE) | Evening
GM: “Hey,” says the person manning the counter when Serea walks in. (Who are they?)
GM: ( <@!Gavrein>, do your OC siblings have parents?)
Gavrein: (Yeah. which i don't have names for, haha)
Serea: (well why not)
Gavrein: (Because I don't think ahead and i like to have all those weird names)
GM: As soon as Gavrein arrives home, she notices her mom looking worried on the phone.
Serea: It's a short black cat who Serea met some time ago while she was sorting out some...issues. He has his own occupation he'd rather not have publicly known, but since he first began...associating with Serea, the two began to open up to one another after a fashion, and he took a job at the same coffee shop as Serea.
Serea: His real name is Alfonzo Prewitt, though his clients know him - among many other names - as the dark and mysterious "Mr. Jonathan."
GM: “I just got the call about your detention, Serea...” He doesn’t say anything more.
Serea: Unlike Serea, it's his business personality that's a carefully-maintained mask. The real Alfonzo is shy and thoughtful, nothing like the flamboyant characters he plays for his customers.
Serea: "It's not a problem. Just a teacher who has some rather unprofessional designs." She frowns. "Everything all right at the cafe today?"
Gavrein: "M-Mom, are you alright?" Fear built up, but she did her best to mask it with a smile, her mother wasn't the kind to get enraged over things, but rather she used guilt as her weapon.
GM: “Uh-huh... Yes, that’s alright.” She hangs up, and turns to Gavrein. “I just got a call from the school. Apparently, you’ve got detention for running through the halls.” She folds her arms and doesn’t say anything more. What’s painful is that there isn’t even a twinge of anger.
Gavrein: "Ah...! A professor asked me to stay after class and it took quite a chunk of time, I didn't even message you and i thought Hurrying home was the best option, but a teacher saw me and..." She looks at her, and looks away, she always defeated her at this "...Sorry, Mom."
GM: “Yeah, but um...” Alfonzo scratches behind his ear. “You were supposed to be keeping a low profile. Even if it isn’t your fault, getting detention so quickly isn’t gonna be good. Just, er... making sure you knew that.”
GM: “What’s done is done, I suppose. Just be glad I don’t believe in double-punishment, missy.” Gavrein’s mother huffed off.
“Oh,” say two people in two places, “and it’s supposed to take place in the second half of schooltime tomorrow. Make sure you don’t skip out on it.”
Gavrein: "It won't skip it, I promise."
Serea: sighs. "I couldn't help it. He was assaulting a student, and he made it clear he had similar plans in store for me. I'm going to report him to the faculty as soon as I get the chance."
GM: (Alright, anything you wanna mention before “getting some sleep?”)
GM: (You too, <@Reality Glitch>.)
Gavrein: At least I can't cry.
GM: (<@!Serea>? <@Reality Glitch>?)
Serea: (if there's no response, then yeah, let's continue)
GM: (So it’s the end of the day, then. This a good spot to wrap up?)
Gavrein: (I think so!)
Serea: (sounds good to me)
GM: (Then let us...)
GM: !end
