Round 3 [new characters]
You're falling, and you can't remember why. It's a sickening feeling that makes your insides lurch; the darkness and the vertigo combine, and all you can think of is a story you heard once, somewhere.
- I remember now. It's a simple story that everyone knows. A legend of a Princess, the Demon Lord who kidnapped her, and the Knight who fought to save her.
The Demon Lord had kidnapped the Princess countless times, but every time the Knight bested his challenges and rescued the Princess.
No matter what tricks and ploys the Demon Lord used, the Knight would always triumph in the end. This was because--
The world tilts on its axis one last time, and the dream slips from your mind as easily as it arrived. A new voice intrudes on your sleep.
"Next stop: Academy Main Entrance. This tramline terminates here; all change. Next stop: Academy Main Entrance. All change."
The sound of thunder and pounding rain jolts you the rest of the way awake. Your nausea settles, slowly. The last of the dream fades.
"We have arrived at Utopia. Repeat, we have arrived at Utopia Academy. Could all passengers please leave the tram, as it is terminating here."
The tram pulls to a stop outside the academy station, and anyone onboard is ushered off and directed through the rain -- sans umbrella -- to the front lobby of the school. You can't miss it; there are signs up pointing toward the main entrance, reading "New student orientation" in big, bright letters. If anyone should care to move off the path, try exploring somewhere else, a teacher will conveniently appear to shoo them back toward the lobby, assuring them that "all your questions will be answered inside".
The lobby is big and spacious, looking more like a university or perhaps a fancy international hotel than a high school. The lights are all off; the large flat screens set into the walls are dark. A few staff members are standing around; they approach the new arrivals to take you to your dorms, assuring you that the round announcement will happen tomorrow.
((OOC: The staff will not answer any questions about what's going on; if asked, they will refer the new students to the Exaclan manuals that are included in their briefcases. Students don't have to follow the staff to their dorms; they can wander about the school if they like. In the rain.))

"Hello sir!" He smiled brightly, "Do you need any help?"

"I'm Romeo, sir, would you like help finding your dorm?" Under Romeo's arm he had a collection of colourful umberella's to keep them dry when they went out to the dorm blocks.
no subject
"My name's Takuto-- oh. If it's fine..." he wasn't up for settling in somewhere if they were kidnapped to it. It just sounded weird, why keep dorms for people if you've kidnapped them?
no subject
"So we have to fight to win tokens to buy back our memories, Miss Sora is one of the students here, she is really kind and wants to save everybody. You will meet her soon!" He had no doubt about that, Miss Sora knew everybody.
no subject
This kid seemed really cheerful though, which meant it couldn't be too bad of a place. And fights. He was used to those. At least he hoped he'd be able to handle this.
no subject
"You're on the second floor," Romeo led the way to the stairs. "Your bag has this uniform," he plucked at his own uniform, "And the rule book."
no subject
Somehow, it didn't feel too different from his own school... well, aside from the fact that he never enrolled here. He figured the rule book would hold more answers, though. Arriving at his (apparent) door, he turned to Romeo again. "Thanks. Did you want this back?" He held out the umbrella.
no subject
He smiled again and flung open the door. "Here you are mister Takuto!"
do you guys want to switch to actiontags |D;;
He'd been vaguely considering heading towards the main hall in case a meal was being served, but apparently the day had other plans for him. His gaze fixed on the two boys who had just opened the door to his room, and he tilted his head slightly as he regarded them both unblinkingly.
"... Yes?"
totally fine by me!
Re: totally fine by me!
Good morning sir! [He still sounds cheary] This is mister Takuto, he is in this dorm, he just arrived!
\o/
It's nice to meet you, Takuto.

/skips with permission
no subject
Will you be alright now mister Takuto?
no subject
[turns to Romeo] Ah... yeah, thanks. And it's fine with just Takuto.
no subject
no subject
He moved to the door with another smile.] I better go see if theres anyone else who needs help!
no subject
You sure you'll be all right?
no subject
So, another nod. AND A SMALL SMILE. gosh.]
Thank you for your hard work.
no subject
Well it's all dark and wet, we didn't want people getting scared! See you later mister Gara, mister Takuto! [Another smile and he dissapears out of the door bounding down the stairs happily not actually bothering to use the umberella's as he runds back to the lobby]
no subject
So... this is an academy for... fighting? I didn't really get why...
no subject
We are expected to fight, but they seal our natural abilities. The system is unfair, as though we are meant to fight against it, rather than each other, but...
