Trash Squad Day 1 - GAME START

[chinhotta]

[ 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.]

[rubbing the back of his head like DX]

This might be karmic retribution for you.

[and that time Rin threw a book at Akira's head!1]

[tsunderine]

Do you think we can actually sue them for all of this?

[ Because she totally would if it means getting money out of it. ]

[liftoft]

--Huh? H-hey... did you just say "alive"?

[fightingoverdose]

Those yours by rights or by tricks?

[truthstranger]

I've been here before, yes. But it wasn't about romance then.

[tocatchafallingapple]

Someone showed me the right way to hold it.

[purrtagonist]

[a pause as he searches for his words, trying to find the right ones]

You reminded me of a friend. That's all.

[sunbottles]

[Sayori is not subtle in her reaction.]

Panties!

[bladeisme]

FUCKING -

[He cuts himself off, and takes in a deep breath. Breathe, Ichigo.

After a moment, he gives a sharp sigh, running his hand through his hair.]

...Alright. Alright. Sorry.

[lefthandpath]

It's quite a feat of magic. Or technology. I can't seem to figure out which it is.

[appleofhiseye]

I've heard it takes years of practice. But don't worry, it's never too late to...turn over a new leaf and try again.

[helptilistop]

Well, it's still Sieg, but he's away on business right now. Why d'you ask?

[ Sliiiiightly warier because Sieg must be protected ]

[justpure]

[Hey those teeth are interesting. You don't look like someone who did this for ritual purposes, so... Aesthetic?]

Ah... Does that make you an assassin of some sort? Or do you just help others exact revenge on their enemies?

[tsunderine]

[ Clarines... is definitely not a place she's heard of, and she knows most places, due to her heritage. ]

Tohsaka Rin. I'm from Fuyuki, Japan.

[flamingprick]

I'M COMING, HOLD YOUR HORSES!

[And he is indeed running to get to where Ichigo is.

Fun fact: Rin looks exactly the same as he did before, except now he is +1 soul-sword, which is strapped to his back.

And also currently non-magical, because power blocking. But details. His soul is probably still in it but it just can't do shit right now.]

[liftoft]

Yo!

[ He reaches out to take that hand, grip strong but not crushingly so. Friendly. Manly. ]


I'm Momota Kaito--Luminary of the Stars and man who'll touch the edges of the universe!

[counterfaith]

[ get a date dantes ]

Someone thought this was a funny joke, it seems.

[tocatchafallingapple]

--I bet.

[bladeisme]

[Hi allen, give Ichigo a minute. He takes a second to calm down, take some deep breaths -]

...Yeah. The last time I was here, we were all forced to kill each other.

[flamingprick]

Murder, mostly. And garbage collecting?

[The raccoons sure did make a mess of everything.]

[purrtagonist]

[his mouth twitches, but his smile is wry, and doesn't reach his eyes]

I see you're familiar with the genre.

[a pause]

You're not wrong for thinking that way.

[truthstranger]

Akechi-kun!

[he hurries over, grateful to see him]

[lefthandpath]

[hmmm...

eh. sure. he can call in favors later.

kneels down next to him and starts working to get him free.]

It's certainly an interesting way to tie someone up, isn't it?

[purrtagonist]

[nnnnnnnoooooooo]

And they're switching the genre this time around? They'll lose last season's target audience that way.

[justpure]

You still think I would kill you?

Keh heh heh... I assure you, I am completely harmless.
