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.]

[chincoola]

One, we had nothin' to do with that.

Two, we specifically told y'all not to murder. It's right there in the rules.

Three, hush up'n go smooch your boyfriend.

1/2

[starinhereye]

We'll find out. —I'll find out, for months.

[uughhhhh, no . . . ]

[bladeisme]

Shuichi?

[LOOK WHO IT IS....although Shuichi will probably notice Ichigo has an eye where he shouldn't have one at all.]

[lefthandpath]

It seems like there's quite a number of people who have different takes on what's magic and what's technology here. So maybe it's a bit of both?

[tsunderine]

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised.

[ There's a bit of exasperation as she rubs the bridge of her nose. ]

[purrtagonist]

[but his response is super casual]

Huh. . . that's some coincidence. The world is a pretty funny place.

[futurebullets]

[Hinata blinks. Then blinks again at the attention.

He didn't do anything out of the ordinary, did he? But it's probably better to say something than not.]

Hey... Is everything okay? [He offers a smile that's a little sheepish.] There... isn't something on my face or anything, is there?

[truthstranger]

[ He almost feels bad piling more on top of that, but he also needs to tell Kaito the whole story. ]

...That's not all. After we escaped... I ended up here. For another killing game. We made it out of that one eventually too, but...

[appleofhiseye]

[although she's a little startled at being addressed, she's quick to give a nod in agreement.]

I did think it was pretty excessive, but I wasn't sure if that was just my impression as someone new to this kind of...situation.

[what kind of situation it is, she has no idea, so it's all pretty up in the air.]

Do you think there's a way to open it?

[lefthandpath]

... I think I know a hog tie. But a torture technique?

Your story just gets more interesting the more details there are to it!

[flamingprick]

Since most of the people I've seen here are teenagers, no. At most he'd be the bad chaperone slipping kids booze.

[futurebullets]

...Eh?

[His mind casts about for an explanation, but. But no, he's got nothing. He should just... ask, then.]

Is what mine?

[afailedmurder]

Saihara-kun!

[checking him over]

Are you all right?

[starinhereye]

But you're right, we don't know. Imagining the worst isn't going to help the situation, though. Between trusting them and not trusting them, we have more to gain from giving them a chance, right? So, let's do that.

[purrtagonist]

[rocks back on one foot, kicking the ground idly as he talks]

That's right. Tycoon and Raquelle. I thought we disabled them and blew up the control room before we left, but it looks like they managed to get things up and running again, anyway.

[flamingprick]

I don't think you can get a speeding ticket for speed dating too fast.

[lefthandpath]

Ah, no, I understand. These... strange host of ours are the more suspicious ones, really.

[starinhereye]

Have you played one of these dating games?

[flamingprick]

Well guess what: you're fortune's changing because this place has a free, working shower for everyone. It probably had a bunch of food too, though it was all ingredients last time so I'll probably end up cooking for everyone again.

[justpure]

That's... Quite the heartwarming sentiment... It seems fortune has smiled on you, my friend.

[Heh... Friend. What a joke that would be.]

However... If you expect me to find love in this place, you are sadly mistaken. You know quite well I'm already taken.

[... YEP. STILL DISTURBING. SORRY, SHUICHI.]

[futurebullets]

[That immediately gets a blush out of him. Oops.]

...Huh? [He can't believe he has to ask this with his own voice, but he does.] Wh-what about... panties?

[tsunderine]

Are you saying that I'm dumber than a kindergartner?! Huh?!

[chinhotta]

Didn't you check your tablet? Geez, and you totally look like the kind of guy who'd be good at following instructions.

[fightingoverdose]

Hey, Tweets, if you're into rough stuff, more power to ya. Though usually once someone's figured out that much, they ain't so hung up on their "virtue," if ya catch my drift.

[lefthandpath]

[fortunately, it's just Allen Walker and his noggin is freakin' hard.

... bleeds a lot, though.]

E-eh? What was that all of a sudden?
