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.]

[CONSIDERING THE TECHNOLOGY IN THE CONTROL ROOM, YEAH]

For all we know, we may have last been here just a few hours ago.

[truthstranger]

Or it could be a completely alternate version.

[purrtagonist]

[DANG HE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THAT]

An alternate version that's still aware of what happened last time?

[since the chinchillas talked about the raccoons!!]

[truthstranger]

I suppose...? I can't say I'm really an expert on travel to alternate universes.

[purrtagonist]

Neither can I. We're both out of our depth, here.

[truthstranger]

Yeah. In a number of senses.

[purrtagonist]

So, what do you plan on doing? Will you play along?

[truthstranger]

Akechi-kun thinks we should, to be safe.

[purrtagonist]

He's not wrong.

[Akira was thinking along the same lines, sort of]

For a definition of "playing along," anyway.

[he'll keep his head down and do what he has to do but he is going to be the Worst Date Ever, probably]

[truthstranger]

What are you planning to do?

[purrtagonist]

. . . keep my head low, for now. I'm not going to rush into anything stupidly or dangerously.

[not like the DO NOT ENTER door of last time]

I don't think I'm going to be a very good date, though.

[truthstranger]

Really? I think you'd be pretty good at it.

[purrtagonist]

Ah-- [blinks a bit at that compliment, then shakes his head]

Only when I want to be. If I'm going on a date, I'd rather it be one that I chose myself, you know?

[truthstranger]

That makes sense. Most of the people here seem nice, though, and I'm sure you'd get along well enough... It's not as if they're the ones forcing us into this. We may as well make some friends.

[purrtagonist]

[. . . pulls up a smile for Shuichi, because. yeah. he's got a point]

You're not wrong about that.

[truthstranger]

We managed that much last time even with the killing, so.

[purrtagonist]

Yeah. And it should be easier if we're not worried about the other person trying to slit our throats.

[truthstranger]

[ he gives him a slight Look at that, but just says ]

Right. At most it will be a bit awkward.

[purrtagonist]

[yes yes, he knows]

Preeeeetty sure I can handle a little bit of awkwardness.
