On the platform: Meet the new characters!

[utopiamods]

As you all crowd onto the platform and peer through the thick fog that chills the air, you are met by four girls and five boys. One of the girls is a somewhat humanoid grey-skinned, finned alien, but the rest all seem human. All nine are in uniforms that would match if not for the colour differences - skirts and trousers, waistcoats, and light summer shirts that seem totally inappropriate for the dense fog. They're all sodden and cold, and most are irritable. Each has a beret with a crest pinned to the front - three depicting a shield on green, the other six a sword on red.

At the first lull in the chatter, one sickly-pale, shield-crested girl speaks up, cutting through your conversations with her cold, soft voice.

"Attention, please."

She explains that the nine of them are the current prefects of Rakuen, representing the two schools on the island. Nanami, she points to herself, Yuri and Lelouch of Fortitude; and Santana, Flynn, Feferi, Gino, Nephenee and Kevin of Conquest. She doesn't care to explain why the prefects in red and white outnumber those in green and black two to one.

Santana interrupts, "Yeah, yeah. Look, come over when your name is called so we can all get inside." They all move to stand in two groups some distance away from each other, and the two that spoke read off names from their clipboards.

[Dave is like his own drug.]

apparently it varies
they can deduct your money
but they also give out these shitty headaches and shit got so serious
the guy was like fucking down for like five minutes
were talking so painful he couldnt get up for a bit
not that i would know
fortitude really sucks at getting penalties apparently
that and someone tried to kill the headmistress at conquest

[Which is almost funny, except she kind of lost her shit like the crazy torturing bitch she is.]

your headmistress is like
torture trigger happy
everytime you guys fuck up
she just goes and brutalizes you guys
which is weird
because fortitude is ran
by a troll
and shes like
peace justice and friendship
suddenly im in a my little pony episode
but no
i mean
like
nations
like they are
how the fuck do you explain this
pretty much
you take the most fucking ludicrous and semi accurate stereotype
slap the nations name onto them
and voila
suddenly youre talking to england

[inamber]

Oh alright. Well I better not bring down the wrath of the psychotic kinky head broad then.

[ He gets it, so he nods once. ]

You weren't kidding when you said this place was bizarre. So how did we get here anyways. Shit I don't remember where I was last, so I don't have any fucking clue how I got here. I somehow doubt I knocked my head so guessing that's the memory thing at play here.

[knightime]

a good choice

[Dave thinks about where he was last. Nope. Blank. Oh god damn it.]

cool
apparently we both suck at the
where were we memory
because i cant remember shit passed
idk i was supposed to find jade
and then my memory is like
lolnope
also idk
i woke up on the train
and i was like
oh okay
this is totes cool

[inamber]

Awesome, that's just what we both need. Disappearing memories of shit that is actually important. Last thing I remember is I was talking to Jade. Or Jadesprite, whatever. But fuck if I remember the place where that actually occurred.

Anyways is there pesterchum in this place or do I have to go find someone in real life every time I want to talk to them.

[knightime]

well
i spent like
the first few weeks
calling john
that guy with the buckteeth
and jade
the girl with the glasses
forgetting names is like the dumbest thing
and jade used to not remember what we looked like
so she kept freaking out everyday because suddenly she wouldnt recognize any of us
it was stupid

[He motions Davesprite to follow him. Fuck the police, he's taking the other to Fortitude.]

theres a network
you can have my spare pda
i dont need it
itll save you like
idk how many raks
but hey
free shit

[He won't tell you why he had a spare PDA, unless you ask though.]

[inamber]

[ Huh. He follows after Dave. ]

Yeah that is stupid. What is the point of making us forget shit anyways. I'm assuming you figured out a way to restore them?? Is that in the rulebook, I need to read that goddamn thing. And the free PDA sounds cool. I'll take it.

[knightime]

apparently it just does that
i guess for shits and giggles
lets make these sad fucks forget things
wouldnt that be funny
especially like forgetting that you cant breathe underwater
jegus fuck
yeah
you can get memory charms
but you have to receive it for it to work
but thats easy as handing money over to them and having them buy it for you
but its still annoying
cool
its yours man

[His dorm is mostly girls. For some reason...]

[inamber]

[ He doesn't laugh, but he does look pretty amused. Breathing underwater. ]

Fuck, dude, you have shit luck. Though I don't know what that blue... atmosphere is called. That shit up there. [ He points. ] Which is laughable all up in itself. Where we headed?

[knightime]

it wasnt me who forgot

[Dave is surprisingly short with his answer. Like he doesn't really want to talk about the general subject. God, why is he so obvious when he wants to avoid subjects.]

you mean the sky???
like you forgot what the sky was called???
sucks to be you
fortitude
the pda is there
duh

[inamber]

The what?

[ It gives him a headache to try and parse that part of the sentence, so he shakes his head and focuses on the next bit. ]

Okay, PDA, Fortitude. Let's pick up the pace a bit and get there quick.

[knightime]

this is stupid
wow

[Dave just heads to his dorm without saying anything else. It was obvious which area was Dave's. One, because all his roommates are girls. Two, Dave's area is kind of messy. His camera is lying on an unmade bed and there's stuff strewn about. So very Dave. Dave just heads to his table, which has an array of notes taped to the wall in front of it. There's a new looking PDA on the desk, which is probably the spare he owns.]

oh cool
apparently none of my roommates are kleptos
thats cool
