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.]

[ with a nod, though there's a pause ]

My, are you Japanese?

[dismemberthename]

[doesn't LOOK japanese kind of. pauses. like he himself is aware of that. but nods.] Yeah, though it's been a while since I was there.

[counterfaith]

[ he had sort of figured that, which is why he'd just introduced himself in western order, but :O ]

My my. Pardon my nosiness, but where do you live now?

[slice_of_life]

It's all right. [pause]

I-I mean, I wasn't... thinking you were being dramatic! I just genuinely thought it was interesting... what you did there.

...Sorry, I'll be quiet.

[dismemberthename]

It's not terribly nosy... [except where it is but] I travel. Recently I've been heading to Chengdu.

[dismemberthename]

[laughs, gently]

We're doing great, aren't we?

[offers her a (scarred, calloused) hand.]

I'm Sudoh. It's nice to meet you.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Judge. Vanilla-sensei has said that murder is strictly forbidden here.

[bestmothercat]

[Well, at least this one is not as loud as that redheaded idiot raging over there...

Blue catboy here doesn't mind it as much. ]

Ah? You also fight without weapons? Interesting~. [But this guy doesn't lOOK like a laguz...]

But I might bide my time on figuring out how to break that door down, If I were you. For now.

[cluelesscavewoman]

Judgement. [nodnod she understands]

Are you a teacher like Tycoon-sensei? I do not understand the violence rule and require an explanation.

[slice_of_life]

[blushes, looking away]

I... I... I...

[HES-I-TANT-LY starts to hold out her hand, which is shaking and trembling...]

[dismemberthename]

[holds his hand still, patiently] You don't have to shake my hand, if you aren't up for it.

[cluelesscavewoman]

[She starts to tilt her head then stops to punch her palm.]

I see, I see. It is like Muneshige-dono and Gin-dono's duel to see if he was worthy of marrying her.

[lacrimose]

So what? If they want to stop me, they can fight me.

[rules are only rules if you agree to them, right?]

[bestmothercat]

Of course! A laguz of the beast tribe, like myself, need it for balance and such.

[A tail might be playfully poking you. ]

You can touch if it you want~? Or my ears. My fur's pretty soft. I take pride in that.

[counterfaith]

[ by the way you are like wearing a pelt? why, ]

Ah, how interesting! Is it for a job?

[dismemberthename]

While I think the results of that would be pretty interesting, there are a looot of ways to stop you without fighting you...

[slice_of_life]

[She starts blinking and breathing faster, NERVOUS!]

I-I'm sorry! It's not because I can see your hand is scarred up or anything! I'm just... not good at... this sort of intimacy...

[STILL, if he keeps holding it there she WILL eventually... shake his index finger, with the tips of her own fingers and thumb.]

[dismemberthename]

[just don't ask] Nah, just keeping a promise.

[dismemberthename]

[oh okay after a moment just sort of takes it in stride.] Well, alright then. If you're offering! [petting along his tail. you touched him first!] Soft fur is definitely something to be proud of.

[lacrimose]

[Akira turns and surveys Ranulf. At first he says nothing, but walks right over to him until they're practically nose-to-nose, glaring at him.

Then he points at his ears.]

Are those real?

[Did he listen to anything Ranulf said at all...]

[bestmothercat]

Ah, so we're definitely not in Tellius... [That or someone who might think laguz re 'sub-human'? Let's hope not.

But he's giving a friendly grin.]

It's what your kind are called where I'm from! ...At least. Ones that fight with weapons and not with claws or transform like we can. [He is slowly learning that some of you guys... aren't quite human, still, even if you look it. He's getting there.

He's gonna give Allen a playful poke with his tail.]

[dismemberthename]

I didn't think it was anything like that... just if you aren't up for it you aren't up for it, you know? Nothing you have to explain to me. [tiny handshake tho, since she's going for it.]

[assent]

That is not what I said... [ Why is this so difficult?! ] I am Princess of the Kingdom of Novoselic, I am unable to do anything about your schools in Japan, I will be concentrating on my own people.

[ PLEASE GET THIS SARA... ]

[slice_of_life]

[tiny handshake! ...which she releases pretty quickly, rubbing her fingers.]

...Yuri.

[assent]

Of course. If you are only starting in watching dramas may I suggest Tatta Hittots--

[ She cuts herself off when he starts making frames with his fingers, smiling sheepishly at him as he declares... that. ]

I am a Princess before I am a woman, of course, so I must uphold that no matter the situation. Despite that, while we are here you are free to call me "Sonia". It is, as they say, "no biggie".
