Who: English Students
When: October 5th
Where: An abandoned classroom
What: Miss Cadence's Poetry Class!
Warnings: Annoying-ass bird teaches you things.

[The Sunday class of the fundraising event is a bit of light fare, but it does come with its lecture at its homework.

On the board, Miss Cadence has written WHY ARE EYES THE WINDOWS TO THE SOUL? and underlined it twice, beneath which is written a lesson in figurative language.

The first thing about this woman is that she's extremely annoying at the front of the classroom. She's sitting all over the desk, she paces around as she lectures, and she seems to have eyes in the back of her head, so good luck doing anything when she's turned around. The second thing is that she actually sounds quite knowledgable once she begins speaking. She has plentiful examples, explains the different types of figurative language clearly and concisely, and has an impassioned argument for how understanding these devices are the first step in analyzing language for what people don't explicitly say, allowing for stronger critical thinking.

Today, she'll walk students through three cases of figurative language:

1. metaphor, describing something directly as something else - "the heart is a lonely hunter"
2. simile, comparative descriptions - "the stars are like diamonds in the sky"
3. personalification, describing non-human things with human attributes - "the wind sighed."

Now it's your turn!]

Who: Kai-un and you!
When: Sept 28
Where: a FESTIVE classroom
What: it's a birthday party and you're invited!
Warnings: idk how hard are you going to party

[ Maybe you saw the invite slipped under your dorm door or maybe you followed the trail of confetti leading down the hall, but one way or another..! Welcome to Hanabi's birthday party! ]

( 🎉🎂🎀💗🥳 )

[ Kai-un has taken over an empty classroom and decked it out in full party style! Balloons, streamers, the works! The desks have been shoved to the side of the room to clear space for mingling and dancing, and the teacher's desk has been turned into a snack buffet. It looks like there's even party favors...!

So grab a drink, get some cake, and have fun! ]

Who: Game players
When: September 28
Where: A random classroom
What: Never Have I Ever & whatever else people want to play
Warnings: Alcohol consumption

[ As you're walking down the hall, you might be drawn into one of the empty classrooms by a sign outside that reads "FREE* CONTRABAND →"

Inside, someone has pushed some desks together to form a table! On one side of it there's a wide variety of alcohol, on the other there's all sorts of non-alcoholic beverages, up to and including—gasp!—tools to make decent tea and coffee! For the alcohol, tea, and coffee, however, you'll find that if you try to help yourself to a drink without actually playing, it will just poof out of your hands. If you want your luxury items, you have to pay the game tax! ]

Have you ever played Never Have I Ever? For those unfamiliar, one player states something they've never done in their life, and anyone who does have that experience must take a drink. Then the game moves on to the next person! Quite simple, no?

[ You can come play Never Have I Ever under the top-level below, or you can use the setup to run a different game! Or just make top-levels doing whatever. Be free! ]

Who: The student body and their dutiful faculty
When: September 26th to October 5th
Where: Starting in the gymnasium, then moving throughout the school
What: A fundraiser!
Warnings: nothing you guys don't bring upon yourselves; cw appropriately!

[Friday morning begins with the chime of the bell, and the gentle pattering of rain against the school rooftops. You rise from your slumber and step out of your dormitory to find the school walls absolutely decked out in advertisement posters! They say things like, Join the Occult Club Today! or Ever wanted to be someone else for a change? The Drama Club is the place for you! or Come get the shit beaten out of you at the Fight Club! There are multiples of each poster plastered on top of each other, and they cover all sorts of school clubs, including many not listed above. Huh!]

[Alongside the posters are large arrows guiding you towards the gymnasium. It appears to be open today, which. . . bodes poorly, if past events are any indication. But at least this time, nothing is forcing you to go inside. Maybe that is a boon. . .?]

[Inside the gymnasium are seven different booths, each one adorned with a sign one of each homeroom are listed. The booths are currently unadorned, but there appear to be boxes of. . . supplies? Or something?? Located behind each one]

[There is also a long, single table adorned with a black cloth and a vase full of red spider lilies set up near the gymnasium stage. It has a bunch of empty jars laid out on top of it. For coins! Obviously!]

[Once most of the student body has gathered, an unfamiliar voice echoes across the PA]

Welcome, students. I know it is in poor taste for me to introduce myself so late into the school year, particularly when you have already met several members of my staff. But ah! Here we are!

As your loving and adoring principal, I wish for nothing but to provide enrichment in your daily student lives. As such, the faculty and I have decided to sponsor several school clubs for your continued education. Ah, but the budget is limited, and we only have so many resources to spare!

And that, my students, is where you come in.

When: September 15
Where: At the bulletin board
What: A warning
Warnings: none

[ this morning, two Kin'uns are at the bulletin board, adding a new entry, and then simply loitering nearby.

Ms Fairplay, notably, has her arm in a sling. Mister Adair... fares better, with a few scratches upon his hands and face. both of them look... pecked. ]

There. [ says Ms Fairplay, of her clumsy signage. ]

poetaste

Who: Yakuyoke girls (they're unforgettable) and YOU
When: 9/11-ish, post-Kenkougate
Where: The Equipment Shed
What: Yakuyoke does a class assignment to try opening the equipment shed, with predictable results, and loses a member along the way (Nei's hiatus)
Warnings: Forced silencing, potential references to kidnapping/trafficking/imprisonment, possible violence because it is Yakuyoke?

[As of the 11th, the (still locked) equipment shed has been vandalized with the following chalk graffiti messages:

"help us"

"just give us a little peek, please 💜"

"I kindly request for this door to open. If not, please let us know the requirements and we will do our best to fulfill them within reason."

"I once found a locked door that perplexed me.
Locked equipment? Now, what help could that be?
This mysterious shed
Had me scratching my head;
To the shed now, I say: “Open Ses’me!”"

Well. It's actually not chalk anymore: It's blood now, running into the grass and staining everything.

Also as of the 11th, anyone within hearing distance will bear witness to a huge commotion: Several people screaming loudly (albeit muffled). The Yakuyoke girls, sans the one called Rin, are swarming around the equipment shed, probably going nuts somehow. It is Yakuyoke. All of their mouths are taped firmly shut.

There are a couple of different headers in the comments for your threading needs! Feel free to make your own also reacting to the damage or the missing Nei.]

Who: everyone!
When: the weekend of September 5
Where: around
What:
Warnings:

[The "staffing issues" from last weekend have seemingly resolved themselves; the food at the cafeteria is back to normal levels of mediocrity! Which is good, because something else seems to be stalking the school hallways today]

[You hear it before you see it. Footsteps that echo behind yours, perfectly in sync with every step you take. Turn around and there is no one there. . . but you do see a set of bloody footprints trailing after you. They aren't your footprints (they belong to someone's bared feet, while you're presumably wearing shoes), and they slowly vanish the longer you stare at them. Creepy! Weird!! Unsettling!!]

[But maybe not as creepy as the ghost of a hand you feel brushing against your shoulder. It's a light touch. It's a cold touch, ice flowing through your veins as it chills you from the inside out, sending your teeth chattering and your body trembling. No matter what you do, for the next 24 hours, you cannot seem to warm yourself up. Blankets don't work. Physical activity doesn't work. Hell, even a steaming hot shower back at the dorms doesn't seem to thaw you out. You're not quite hypothermic, you may be close!!]

[What does work to dispel the cold, however, is. . . . . . . . . . . body heat. Snuggling up with someone else and/or sharing a blanket will warm characters up in a pinch. Maybe it's pillow fort and/or sleepover time?? Go find a partner and take care of yourself]

[The footprint ghost will linger throughout the weekend before disappearing on Monday morning]

[ALSO PLEASE USE THIS POST FOR ANY AND ALL MINGLE THINGS EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT RELATED TO FOOTPRINT GHOST. I'M NOT THE BOSS OF YOU]

Who: The student body, and. . .?
When: August 23
Where: The gymnasium, and then–?
What: Physical Education 102
Warnings: claustrophobic places, possible drowning

[Happy August 23rd! Do you. . . smell smoke? Trick question; of course you do. It's very subtle, but still burns your nostrils. And yet, no matter where you look, you don't see a fire. . .]

[You blink. You open your eyes. You find yourself standing in the middle of the gymnasium, dressed in your standard-issue color-coded track suit. Did you know the school has a PA system. . .? Well, if you didn't before, now you do! Because two voices suddenly echo around you from above]

Yooooo, ain't it supposed to be summer vacation? What are you little shits still doing here!

Mmmm. . .

Hahaha! Rhetorical question, ain't it? I know what you're doin' here. Remedial education! Summer school! Or what-the-heck-ever you wanna call it.

Yeah. . .

Whatever, whatever! You guys should do something with this crappy summer before it ends. Hey, how 'bout a field trip? I know just the place that'll test your mettle!

Metal. . .

'Sides, it's been a while since I've had some ~friends~ to hang with. My pal and I here–

Pal. . .

-- we wanna see exactly how brave y'all really are!

[You smell it again. The overpowering scent of smoke, so strong that it now threatens to choke out your lungs. You blink. . . and suddenly, you are somewhere else]

Who: people!
When: the week of August 18
Where: around the school
What: mischief! mischief!
Warnings: nada

[The mysterious red threads decorating the school have cleared up as of this fine Monday morning. Is it finally safe to venture out again?? For the most part, yes! But. . . the Mischief Makers seem to be in prime form today, for some reason? If you spend any significant time outside the safety of your dorm or the nurse's office, you may find yourself the victim of one of their silly little pranks!]

[It may take you a moment to notice, but once you do, you realize. . . the omamori that you're carrying around with you isn't yours! Whether it was during breakfast, while you were perusing the school library's book collection, or just passing throughout the hallways, the Mischief Makers have yoinked your omamori and swapped it with someone else's. SCANDALOUS. You'd better return this missing charm to its rightful owner ASAP. And get your own back, too. Just in case]

[Swapped charms will act as dousing rods of a sort, leading you to the charm's proper owner. There's nothing stopping you from making a trade once you find them! Though. . . you may want to guard your charm a little more closely after this, just in case the Mischief Makers try to yoink it again. . .]

[Otherwise! The school continues to exist in its super haunted state. The auditorium recently got a makeover. Maybe you're discovering the bathroom ghosts for the very first time. And hey, are there two new portraits hanging in the school lobby. . .]

[ENJOY YOUR WEEK.]

sevenhorrorsmods

Who: everyone!
When: throughout the week of August 10
Where: everywhere
What: a little mischief
Warnings: nada!

[On August 10th, everyone wakes up to find a series of red yarn strung across the entire school. They dangle from the hallway ceilings, from the classroom door frames, even across some of the trees and bleachers outside. The ones that hang within reach feel warm to the touch! They can be pulled down and removed with little consequence.]

[However, it is not the decorative threads you should be worried about. Throughout the week, any two characters who come in close proximity with each other (they do not have to touch!) may suddenly find themselves tied together with the exact same red thread. If you're lucky, it will only link you via your wrists. If you're unlucky, it might bind you via your ankles, or even wrap you both up back-to-back like a pair of captives. Hm! Concerning!!]

[Any time two characters are tied together, a playful voice echoes in their minds: Hehe. Share a secret. . .?]

[To be released, both characters must share a secret with each other! Something that the other one doesn't know! It should be something significant; the playful threads will not let you go unless it is. But the level of significance may vary from something light to something that is not, so ultimately it is player's choice as to what secrets count and which do not!]

[. . . anyway, for anyone who wants to avoid getting caught, the nurse's office and dorm rooms are completely clear! The threads are also fickle; it is possible for two characters to hang out without being tied up together, if you don't want to play with this effect. Otherwise, go forth and mingle with some optional forced bonding!!]

Who: everyone!
When: July 31st throughout the day
Where: outside, but also wherever you want to be!
What: a general all-purpose mingle with flavor
Warnings: nada

[Today, for the first time since your arrival, dark and angry clouds gather in the sky above to block out the sun. It is sweltering outside, so when those clouds eventually open up in the early afternoon, showering everyone with cool rain, rolling thunder, and a few flashes of lightning. . . it probably feels good!]

[It seems to be normal rain, for the most part. Look at it from the wrong angle and some if it may seem to be tinted red, like blood. And sometimes, when a drop spatters against the ground, a spider lily suddenly blossoms in its place. The flower dies almost immediately upon springing to life, its petals dissolving into dust that is quickly washed away by the rest of the water]

[dwbi]

[. . . things have been awfully quiet since your arrival. It feels almost a bit like the calm before the storm, doesn't it? Are you still waiting for that other shoe to drop. . .?]
