Morimori Mingle!

Who: Everyone with an itch to explore.
What: DID SOMEBODY SAY EXPLORATION? Feel free to create your own starters as well!
Where: Morimori Academy, Heart ver.
Warnings: None; will edit as needed.

[The location is only too obvious when he awakens. How recently had he seen that bunk above him? And how often? Six months wasn't a long stretch of time comparatively, but when you've spent a good two years in complete darkness, waking up to such a sight definitely stands out. And even beyond that, there's something about the coloration here...

It doesn't take him long to notice a few key things. 1: that his body lacks any coloration, and 2: that the face peering out from inside the mirror - in full color no less - isn't his.

...So. It's his turn now. A sense of fear begins to constrict his heart, but he pushes aside the feeling as best as he can and makes for the door. The sooner it's over, the better...
]

[A - the dormitory hallways]

[When he steps into the boy's dormitory hall to begin investigating, he freezes at the sight of the mirror down the hallway. Even though it's quite some distance away, he can see flesh tones in there, and somebody waving cheekily at the viewer.

His first instinct is to back into his room and try to see if he can't get past the mirror and out the window, but if someone spots him quickly enough, they may just be able to catch him instead.
]

[B - the forest]

[Either way, he can later be found walking into the dense forests around the school, all the way to the barrier surrounding it. While he seems initially surprised upon hitting the barrier to the west of the classrooms, his expression quickly changes to one of contemplation. His hand curls up under his chin as he considers what all of this means.

It's definitely a smaller campus than he remembers. That, and... odd, too. Since it's his Heart, he would have thought it would be around... But if it cut off here, there's no way
that could be in this World after all. How strange...]
hesmypuddin: (Harley 1 - Default)

Yo, Ken!

[Harley's temper is on a short, short fuse and she finds herself stalking through the school alone. She's hoping to find any hints that might lead to another puzzle or to the World Key itself, but is coming up fairly empty. Needless to say, the smell of food wafting through the halls catches her attention and she follows her nose to the Home Ec. room, tail almost fully upright behind her.

She slides the door open and the smell of cooking food surrounds her and her stomach gurgles, gaze settling on Ken while he stuffs his face.]


I don't suppose there's enough fer two? [She asks while sidling over.]
miseris_socios: (heya)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-17 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[He looks up and - oh. He nods and gestures to the pot, a little rice stuck to his face.]

There's still a bunch left there. The eggs are scrambled, but I think there's still a bunch of eggs that aren't rotten in the fridge.
hesmypuddin: (Harleen - *shrug*)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-19 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
[This is Harley, already digging in as Ken tells her about the other eggs.]

Scrambled is fine... [It's pretty understandable, even around the mouthful of eggs. It's like poor man's fried rice and it's delicious.

She's eating it about as gracefully as Ken, not having no eealized just how hungry she was until she began stuffing her face.]


I's good. [She manages around a large mouthful, tag wagging almost doglike behind her.] Fanks.
miseris_socios: (huh?)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-19 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
No problem.

[His tail wags at how happy she seems at the food.]

I learned how to cook with whatever we had in the Tower, and before that I used to just dump things in a pot for a stew.
hesmypuddin: (Hanging on your every word)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-19 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley has no complaints about the food, only managing to properly chew every other bite or so.]

We're on about the same level, then... I mean, I can cook some things great, a few things okay, and a while lotta stuff shitty. [She gives a half shrug, wiping her mouth on the back of her gloves.]

Didn't even realize how hungry I was 'til I smelled it... makes what the Rabbit said all the more true. [And, boy, does she look unhappy about that.]
miseris_socios: (blankly)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-19 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. ... Which thing the Rabbit said, though? He said a lot of things.
hesmypuddin: (Harley 1 - Default)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-19 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
He said that we only had a limited amount'a time here... Before our minds an' bodies give up. [Hih... She said that pretty matter 'o factly, didn't she? Her expression is pretty flat, no trace of humor or teasing.]

I think that's why they're makin' sure we have food an' stuff available... This all might be'a dream' some sort or anothah, but I will tell ya tha' this was the best tastin' thing I feel like I've ever had an' it was rice an' eggs.
miseris_socios: (standing proud)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-19 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
... Bodies, probably, but my mind can probably keep going for a while. but... really? I didn't think I was that good of a cook...

[Maybe it's something to do with the fact that they're in someone's Heart?]
hesmypuddin: (Harleen - *shrug*)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley gives a half shrug.]

Well, it was good enough for me, ya know? Can't be picky when ya ain't the one cookin'!

As for brains an' dyin'... I dunno how long any'a us can or can't last, ya know? But I don't wanna find out.
miseris_socios: (ugh...)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
Me either. I'm not like him.

[He glares at nothing for a moment before stabbing into his eggs again.]

I don't know how much of what they say we can take at face value, though. I'm sure they've got their own reasons for making us do this stuff, other than the 'keys'.
hesmypuddin: (Harleen - But whyyyyyy?)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley blinks.]

Ahh... him who?

[And a soft sound as she leans back against the wall.]

I suppose yer right, but... better ta be safe than sorry, huh? [Altjough...] What d'ya think their end game is?
miseris_socios: (weapon of choice)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
... Jason. He was... basically a mad scientist. Liked to cut people up and run experiments. 'How long can you take what's being thrown at you' would be something he'd do.

[Their end game...]

The Cat obviously likes making us uncomfortable, so just doing that might be fun enough for him. The Rabbit... I don't know. He may never let us go, or send us on some other task for us, just watching us flail around.
hesmypuddin: (Harley 1 - Default)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley's brows rise as Ken describes Jason, lips pursing as she exhales a soft whistle.]

Sounds like he didn't have all his bulbs screwed in tightly. [And Harley would know this first hand, Ken. Then she makes a face as Ken talks about the Cat and Rabbit.]

So, you're sayin' we could end up gettin' stuck like this forever? Well, I got things ta do! Seems like we gotta figure out what their real intentions are as much as gettin' outta each Heart in one piece.
miseris_socios: (huh?)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. ... And there's no telling what's going to happen. We just have to try, and see if they drop hints.

... Of course I could just be paranoid, but I like to think of it as 'prepared'.
hesmypuddin: (Default)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
We jus' gotta get outta 'em what we can, I guess. [She smirks, waving off the latter.]

Kenny, where I come from, there ain't no such thing as paranoid. If it ain't the cops after ya, it's a chump in a bat costume.
miseris_socios: (blankly)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 05:43 am (UTC)(link)
['Kenny'? Ugh, whatever.]

What, like some kind of weird sentai hero?
hesmypuddin: (Harleen - *shrug*)

Sentai = Hentai, right?!

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
[everything else has been taken from her; let the girl have her nicknames, Ken.

She wrinkles her nose in distaste.]


I dunno what kinda kinky stuff he's inta, but he's a pain in me an' Mistah J's ass, that's for sure! [She sniffs, ears flicking back beneath her cowl and tail rustling in irritation.]

It's gettin' so ya can't so much as take out a long term lending plan at a jewelry store anymore. [Also known as stealing.]
Edited 2016-01-20 06:36 (UTC)
miseris_socios: (haha!)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 03:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Sentai, like... heroes in spandex suits teaming up to fight evil and stuff like that! Heroes of truth and justice and they usually have a giant robot! At... at least they do in the shows...

[His voice gets kind of small all of a sudden, because... shh. He still likes those shows.]

Even if it... never works that way in real life.
hesmypuddin: (Hanging on your every word)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-20 04:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Harley listens and a small smile touches her lips... it's not quite a happy smile... Nostalgia, perhaps? Something else?]

It does, though... I mean, Bats ain't ever been in a giant robot wouldn't surprise me if he did have one that I remember, but he's always got these nifty cars with buttons and gizmos... An' he does were spandex... Well, with body armor, ta give him credit where it's due.

She rolls her eyes a bit.[]

An' I'm suuuuuure he thinks he fights for justice.
miseris_socios: (standing proud)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-20 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[That's... really cool.]

I.. uh. I watch those shows when I get the chance. It's... I mean, people aren't really easy to put into categories of 'good' and 'evil' most of the time. But when I get older I want to be a lawyer, and fight for justice the right way - by helping people who need it.

[Even if... he had to support himself the wrong way for a while.]
hesmypuddin: (Harley 1 - Default)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-21 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
I used ta think that too... That people ain't black or white... [A beat, because she's not sure what she believes anymore.]

I watch some'a them shows, too! Sometimes it's a team an' they connect their robots inta an even bigger robot.. sometimes they fight alone.

[Harley's lips purse, but she nods after a beat.]

I think ya will make a good lawyer, Ken... Ya got the gumption for it, ya know?
miseris_socios: (not so innocent)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-21 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. ... I guess I have to catch up on school first, but the Kirijo Corporation owes me and the rest of Strega for a bunch of things. They know they couldn't have gotten rid of everything on their own, so they're going to pay up for school for me and help for the others. And if they don't...

[He can't help a little bit of a mischievous grin.]

I'm sure we can find some records of what they did to the others, as well as probably internal documents about covering up my mother's death... not to mention endangering of the whole city, never mind the whole world... oh, and kidnapping. A lot of it.

Yeah, they'll pay up, or they'll pay. Either or.
hesmypuddin: (Harleen - HA HA!! GOTCHA!!)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-21 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley listens to Ken's plan with a growing sense of respect, teeth flashing briefly. She'd heard about some of this from Ken, but hearing his ambitious plans for his future. She shakes her head, but if anything, she sounds impressed.]

Sounds like ya got it all figured out, Ken... I like that ya ain't lettin' them off the hook! Damn right that they owe ya!

[Her grin broadens.]

An' when ya get what ya want, put 'em through the ringer anyhoo! Air all their dirty laundry... Or wait'll yer a lawyer an' represent any of the others ya can.
miseris_socios: (weapon of choice)

[personal profile] miseris_socios 2016-01-21 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
Obviously. I'm not an idiot - and even if I'm 'just a kid' that doesn't mean I can't know the justice system. That's one battleground where it doesn't matter at all how big you are.

[He finishes up his rice before standing to take the bowl over to the sink.]

I haven't found any puzzles yet... have you? This place is weird - it's trying to be normal but it's pretty clearly not. I think I preferred Murder Island.
hesmypuddin: (Hanging on your every word)

[personal profile] hesmypuddin 2016-01-22 10:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Harley gives a half shrug, because she's honestly not been bothered by the fact that Ken (and most of the others) are younger than her; young enough to be called 'kids', really.]

Meh, I don't think the age thing should matter, ya know? I mean Bat Jerk has the Boy Wonder as a sidekick an' he's always yer age or younger. Size don't mean much'a anythin' these days... don't even make ya an easy target, if I'm ta be honest. Ya never expect the small ones ta pull out the big whammies, but they do! My Lil J... [She trails off, realizing she was about to wax poetic and talk about things she might not want to.] Anyhoo, I think yer on the right track, bubs.

[Ahh, questions she could answer! She nods, lips quirking proudly.]

Yeah... Me an' Liao... An' Lalli. [She says the last name in such a way as to indicate great dislike.]

In the library we helped a few phantom thingies figure out what books they needed... They gave us a rhyme... Pretty sure it's about Sasuke an' his brother...
