Fortitude: Round 4 Start

[mamarosa]

You may notice that once again the number of Prefects by Dolorosa's side has risen. On the stage with her is Lelouch, Yuri, and Gamzee. Nanami has been sick the past few days and will be missing the assembly, something that is rather routine by now. Dolorosa talks amiably with the three present Prefects before the assembly starts.

It should be a familiar scene by now, Dolorosa smiling out over her students.

"Hello, my students, another round has come to an end and another is starting anew. We were not the victors of round 3 but, just as you have in past rounds, everyone fought well," she laughs a bit, "And perhaps maybe it is a bit safer for all of us that Conquest has won the round, so I congratulate you on avoiding the wrath of Day and Santana." She can't help but poke fun at her fellow staff members, it is easier to make light of the situation than punish her students unnecessarily.

"The downside of losing is that you are not rewarded the extra Raks, but let us not dwell on defeat and instead focus on the victories of the round," behind her, as per usual, the Battle Records show up on the screen.

"I am once again proud of my students, you very rarely battle among yourselves, not that I am discouraging you. I extend a congratulations to Shion for defeating Becca."

As the inter-school battle records show up on the screen she looks surprised but not disappointed, "For Inter-school battles we should congratulate Lelouch," she turns to her Prefect, "for defeating Feferi." That's right, Fortitude won a grand total of two battles, one of them fought against itself. Students should take a moment to be relieved over the fact they are not in Conquest.

"Lastly, we should congratulate Dahlia for winning the round," Dolorosa begins to applaud for all the victors.

"And without further ado, the Players for round 4 are:

Oichi
Dave
Gamzee
Marisa
Jade
Inui
Spain
Nanash

Have a wonderful round."

[conquistador]

Then we're allies! ( Spain smiles, ) I'll do my best to protect you. If there is anything you need, don't be afraid to talk to Boss Spain, okay?

[savedbyasong]

[Shion smiled back though a little nervously. Antonio seemed different than before. He was still friendly though so that was alright.]

Thank you...

Oh... can we have permissions?

[pencilpremonition]

[Something about Antonio made Becca nervous, but as long as she was with Shion, she was certain it would work out all right in the end.]

Yeah, please...

[conquistador]

Permissions? ( He says the word like it's something foreign to him. It isn't that he's used to people demanding rights but. . . ) What kind of permissions. . . ?

( Is this warning enough. )

[savedbyasong]

[Shion blinked, was this Antonio... he had been calling himself Spain and Shion had just assumed that was another name he had. Many people here had two. But to be confused about this...

Was there perhaps two people who looked the same...]

Weapons don't have rights... [He decided to explain from the beginning...] By vowing to a Player they can have those rights, for example leaving the school grounds alone, but only if the Player gives them written permission, or escorts them...

[pencilpremonition]

It's...not a big deal...

[Becca was nervous about this now. He didn't seem very nice at all now. But Shion trusted him, and she was determined to stick to Shion's side.]

[conquistador]

( So that was all they wanted? The right to leave the school unescorted? It didn't sound like too much to give but. . . Just to make sure, he asks quietly, )

. . . Will you come back?

[savedbyasong]

[Shion blinked] Of course we will... [This was getting stranger by the moment] There's also other things, like using the library, or the network or eating from the non-discard menu...

[pencilpremonition]

We'll come back. Any time you want. But better food would be nice....

[Becca's still skinnier than is pretty. She could use eating well.]
