Trash Squad Day 1 - GAME START

[ Maybe you were going about your business and blacked out, maybe you were dead. Either way, when you come to, you are in what looks like the entrance hall to a school, except for the very well secured front door. Before you can really get your bearings, a voice rings out on an the intercom. ]

Welcome, kiddos! —How does that sound? 'Kiddos'? Too daddy kink? Eh, let's go with it for now. Anyway, welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime chance at romance and passion, with fabulous prizes! Find love beyond the boundaries of time and space! Original concept, do not steal.

Pick up your tablets and get settled in! A little later today, we'll have our first heart-pounding get-to-know-you event!

—Oh, also, no violence allowed! I know some of you kids are into the murder thing, but that's not the kind of game we're running here.

[ In fact, there are several boxes of electronic tablets around the room. When you pick one up, it displays the gameplay and rules.]

How've you guys been? I mean...back in Akira and Akechi's world.

[Okay. She's starting to remind him of Orihime - which definitely gets him to smile just a little.]

Mmm, yeah. I just hope they're telling the truth - the chinchillas, I mean.

[Because he's still expecting all of this to head into murdertown, tbh.]

I'm Kurosaki Ichigo. You?

[Yep...the person who has the name of Ichigo AND the title of 'Ultimate Poet' on the tablets is this thuggish guy.]

["impossible to overcome."]

[it isn't Zen's fault. he's not shoving the barbs deeper on purpose. but the tenseness in Akira's shoulders doesn't lessen, and he has to force himself to breathe in and lout slowly to calm himself]

So far, this game isn't starting off the same way the last one did. We might be lucky. . . they might really have no intention of harming us.

I shall test that.

Then at the end, when you have exhausted all of your tests, I look forward to your acceptance.

Am I -

[Ah. Right. He did yell loud enough for the entire fucking school to hear.

Ichigo scratches the back of his head, looking a little sheepish.]

...Yeah, I guess so. Sorry for flipping out back there.

[there's a faint empathetic wince, quiet while he sorts out how to respond . . . but staying focused]

Yes, I want to believe in that. If you see anything taking a turn, then I'd appreciate a warning. If you come up with any plans too, please.

Of course. With my well-practiced charisma and your natural charms, we'll conquer this game in no time.

[CAN'T BACK DOWN NOW but he can go for a hug]

You sound so sure of your victory.

Heh. I can definitely understand that. The last time I was here, I'd just got done slicing Yhwach in half.

Being kidnapped to strange places through abnormal means. But... mostly just kidnapping, yeah.

...Slicing what in half?

A gift? He gave those to you? But they're his charm point.

That is certainly true. I find myself caught up in a lot of things when I am with him.

I have faith, as I said.

[don't be a snoop, zen]

Well, there's something to be said for going on a date when you're aware that's what you're doing. Try it out when you get the chance.

Trust me, I'm well aware of that.

[He....does like Akira with the glasses because it makes him pay attention to those pretty gray eyes of his!!

But he's not going to say that to a stranger, even if he's pretty sure this is one of Akira's friends from his world.]

We were both here before, when it wasn't a dating game.
