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.]

[After everyone's reactions...? He never expected forgiveness from that sorry lot. And yet Shuichi is happy to see him alive?]

[That's... More appreciation than he anticipated.]

You are...? You truly mourned my passing?

That's...

[He's almost speechless...]

[lefthandpath]

[. . . tail...?

trying not to stare.]

Beorc?

[appleofhiseye]

If they were trying to test our intelligence then I wouldn't have gotten passing marks either. I saw everyone else tapping at them earlier, or I wouldn't have known how to make it work at all. But that might be considered a group effort, right? We can surely manage with that.

[purrtagonist]

Didn't plan on it. It isn't my job to keep an eye on their ratings.

[futurebullets]

[He doesn't, of course. RIP?]

...Murder? Really?

[Hinata feels something drop in his stomach. Remembers how back on the island, Komaeda always throws words around like that so carelessly, and...

They dodged a bullet, but what about everybody from before?]

I-it's good they're forbidding violence this time, but that sounds really untrustworthy. Are we really safe in here...?

[slice_of_life]

Ahaha... I'm sorry, I didn't... I didn't mean to imply otherwise!

my name's eski and I'm tired

[bladeisme]

[ - and his eyes fall on someone he didn't expect to see for a while, if not for the rest of his life.

The words and breath catch in his throat, and he...can do nothing but stand there, drinking in the sight of the very person he fell in love with 5 months ago.]

[fightingoverdose]

Zero-G sounds like a weird fetish hobby to me. Though I guess you can try to make it with some aliens while you're here, at least...

[helptilistop]

Yeah! He's a total sweetheart! He can be kind of naive sometimes, and he's still learning, but he's always thinking of everyone else before himself, even if it gets him hurt in the process!

[ Okay, he definitely has a specific dragon in mind. ]

[fightingoverdose]

..."A couple"?

[slice_of_life]

Ahaha... I'm sorry, of course I know the difference between fantasy and reality. But... this... situation is... rather... fantastic...

[looks down, avoiding his gaze]

[justpure]

Absolutely not!

[He just met you, he can't trust you with his face. Don't start grabbing at him.]

[loveisanopenseal]

I see. I'd like to meet them.

[lefthandpath]

Why would you say it's a mistake?

[genuinely curious?]

[helptilistop]

[ gasps ]

You. Are. A. Geniussssss.

[truthstranger]

Ah...

[ Shuichi also needs a moment to figure out how he feels about that. Happy?? Maybe, for Kaito? But also his chest aches like there's a heavy weight sitting on it. ]

[purrtagonist]

[Akira isn't as outwardly FIGHTY!! as she is, but he gets the sentiment]

There's no excuse for not keeping your skills sharp, even in mu-- ah. . . dating school.

[so used to calling it murder school]

done

[bladeisme]

[Almost instantly, his shocked face turns to one of amazement, disbelief...and utter joy, tears welling up in his eyes as he takes a step forward, hands shaking.]

A...Akira? Are you - is it really -

[He can't even finish his sentence.]

[lefthandpath]

[WHY THIS?!]

[helptilistop]

Booooo.

[ Hey, he's not grabbing! Just huffing indignantly! ]

You're no fun at all.

[flamingprick]

Up on the what?

[tsunderine]

Apparently.

[ She says it with as much discomfort as a normal person would, but she doesn't show it in her expression. ]

And I don't know. But if anything happens, I can protect myself, at least. And honestly, I'm hoping that nobody tries anything violent.

[lefthandpath]

... versions, is it?

[appleofhiseye]

You think so? Mitsuhide and Kiki would yell at him if he let anything happen to you too, you know.

[she makes a beeline for the exit, full of restless energy and a desire for answers. let's get exploring!!]

[loveisanopenseal]

Of course. I'll make sure to learn as much as I can ~ ♪

Does it not seem fun to you?
