the mark of those who cannot be saved

[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! ))

Oh - sure, of course!

[The Balladeer does look like he's feeling a lot better today! He definitely turned in earlier than he usually does last night, and slept nearly until the afternoon, but that plus a lot of eating seems to have done him good.]

Let me grab an instrument. Any preference? [He'd been using his trusty guitar for the actual performance, but they also have played violin together a bit lately. (One of these days, he intends to introduce Salieri to the banjo.)]

Whatever you think is best. Perhaps what you're going to be using for the performance specifically?

Guitar, then.

[He'll just go and fetch that!]

I think it might help that this one's mine. It's the only thing I was able to bring out of my show.

[ It's at this point that Orpheus hurries over, carrying a heavily dog-eared notebook and with a lyre guitar of his own slung over his back. ]

Sorry I'm late! Are we practicing now?

Ah, yes, we are. [Salieri brightens when he sees Orpheus, glancing at the Balladeer, explaining:]

The SQUIP suggested I have an understudy, so I asked Orpheus if he would be my second. I thought it would be good for him to come practice with us.
