[August 3 stars off. . . weird.]

[The morning bell chimes at 6 a.m., as it usually does! But there appears to be a very thin layer of fog settled against the ground outside. Some of it seeps into the school's hallways, before dissipating in a few wisps of haze. Weird??]

[As the day goes on, you feel like you can hear strange whispers echoing in the air-- a voice, hissing the word miiiiiiiine over and over again. Also weird!]

[And by the time the afternoon hits, you may find yourself running into some very unwanted guests. You've been here two weeks, and this is the first time you're seeing these guys?? Where have they been??]

[By the way, the nurse's office is unlocked!]

[hello, going to approach after a moment of talking with Puck.]

... I see you've had your work cut out for you today?

[rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrwhoisthis

I GOT MY EYE ON U, HANDSOME MAN]

[presgarddihellis]

[he's a polite gentleman who may smell suspiciously a bit foggy but like... not the fog from this place. it okay.]

[rugpull]

Smelly...

[presgarddihellis]

... my apologies...

[rugpull]

What's yer deal, mister?

[presgarddihellis]

That... is a very complicated matter.

To put it simply: I do have some association with the spiritual realms...

[rugpull]

Spooky shit everywhere. Damn.

[presgarddihellis]

More or less. I have a lot of experience with it.

[rugpull]

So what are yer thoughts then?

[presgarddihellis]

Regarding the situation in general or this current mishap?

[rugpull]

Yes.

[presgarddihellis]

... either we have been dragged into a ritual or we are, in effect, "feeding" whatever powerful entity or entities have brought us here.

As for this... there's been evidence of hauntings and the like since the first day, but nothing truly violent since then. Something was triggered. And now there are things wandering halls and other areas of the school.

We've likely either entered into another stage of the ritual. Or... have become enough... "marinated" in the energies here that the things that could not reach us before can do so now.

But these are only theories. There are other possibilities.

[reapoman]

Tell me about it. At least no one died.

[ Ironic from a grim reaper. ]

[presgarddihellis]

There is always that.

[the dry humor of someone very experienced with most people dying in the field]

If it helps, any... if there's one wound that's particularly trying in the location it's in, I can move it a different place on the body. Just the one time, however. And the damage and your classmates' hardwork won't be affected.

[reapoman]

I appreciate the offer, but I'm fine. I got as lucky as I could have, and I'd prefer not to tempt fate.

[presgarddihellis]

More than fair. Fate is a fickle mistress, after all.

If there's anyone you're concerned about while you're recovering, however, do let me know and I'll be sure to keep an eye out for them.

[reapoman]

If any of my teammates still haven't taken care of their wounds... I'd appreciate someone giving them a hand.

[presgarddihellis]

Of course.

... Mr. Puck seems to be taking it rather hard.

[reapoman]

... He took a blow to the head early on and was out for most of it. He came to after I'd been hurt.

[presgarddihellis]

I see. He did mention it was a couple of the others who tended to your wounds.

It's fortunate you were all together.

[reapoman]

The two kids, if you can believe it. Macchi has quite the wealth of knowledge when it comes to first aid.

[presgarddihellis]

[smiles]

I can believe it. It's unfortunate that they had to put those skills into practice here, but...

[lucky that you guys had a child with that experience.]

[reapoman]

Considering we're cursed to draw aggro, I think they'll be putting it into practice quite a bit.

[presgarddihellis]

I've let you know my capability with wounds, so do keep it in mind should anything happen.

... as it is, the halls have gotten quite... active.
