the mark of those who cannot be saved

[stagemanagers]

[You remember dying. Maybe the memory is clear and bright and your body still aches from the cause. Maybe it was fast enough that you didn't feel it and don't remember what you went through. But no matter how you went out, that's no excuse for truancy! Which is to say: you are still in the school.

For those executed, you will wake up in your beds. The dormitories look exactly as they did when you first arrived, without any of the changes or personal effects you and your dormmates might have made. The only real difference is that the little cot in Ambassador isn't there.

For those who were victims, you will wake where your body was discovered. All of your injuries are gone, and you feel fine. It's almost like you're still alive - but you remember what happened to you. It couldn't have just been a dream, could it?

The school looks much as you remember it, save perhaps for a few key differences. For one, there's no groundhog murals anywhere. Where things were green on the other side, like banners or paint, you'll find that here they're blood red.

The doors, for the moment, are still locked. Looks like even death couldn't free you.]

Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5

(( ooc: Welcome to deadland, everyone! It mostly resembles the school here, and new floors will be revealed after new people die. For example, the second area will unlock after the week 3 dead arrive, and so on. Also, all dead characters will wake up at their actual canonpoint, with all lost memories restored. Have fun being dead! ))

Mmm, well…

[ She shifts through some of the dresses. ]

Usually I would pick white or grey when looking at stuff like this for myself… it’s my favorite and the colour that “represents” me in our club.

[ She pulls out a bright orange dress just enough to get a better look at it. ]

But I was thinking… since my friends back home aren’t here, it might be nicer to wear one of theirs colours instead. So it feels like I’m still connected to them in some way.

[ She puts it back and moves to a yellow one. ]

But I can’t decide which one to go with. I don’t know which one would look best on me and trying to pick between my friends is hard.

[Salieri listens, thoughtfully, as Rina explains.]

...might I ask, is there a limit to the colors that you associate with your friends? That is to say...are there any colors that you don't associate with them?

[samefacesyndrome]

[ She thinks on that for a moment, recalling each of the colours in her head. Red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, purple, pink… even black she sort of associates with Yu now even though Yu is the only one in the club not an idol.

So she shakes her head. ]

Not really. There are nine of us including me, and our school’s name means “blooming rainbow” so we tried to cover as many colours as we could - that’s what makes it hard.

Blooming rainbow...

[he pauses to consider that]

Then...why not something that employs as many colors as the rainbow?

[samefacesyndrome]

Eh?

[ Oh that… actually never occurred to her. ]

Would that be okay? It wouldn’t look… gaudy or anything?

[violentenvies]

Not if it's done tastefully. [he reaches out to start sorting through the dresses, pulling out a few options and setting them aside]

It's eye catching, to be sure, but with the lightness of the colors, it will come across softer and less gaudy.
