Tucker will take note of Axel's behavior and wait for Claus to start speaking.

Suggestion: Start writing out what you're going to share with the others. Or write out how you're not going to say anything.

"I'll let James explain what I found. He's better at articulating things."

Dennis stretches out his hands while Claus continues on. "Now then...We're certainly trapped on this island. I searched every inch of the outside grounds. There's no way down from up here and even if we could get down, a huge pool of water awaits us at the bottom. More than that, I was unable to locate any visible exits. However...I did find something interesting. If you look at the school, you'll notice it's much larger than it seems from the inside. In fact, there should be many more than just two floors. I get the feeling Nekoshi is keeping us from exploring the entire school..."
The attention in the room shifts over to the doorway as Vicky enters in. Ashley crosses her legs and looks off to the side, making a snide remark. "Ooh, look who showed up late."
Amelia glares daggers at her from across the table. "Zat is no way to treat a friend."
"How can you even be sure she's our friend to begin with? Anyone here could end up backstabbing us..." She produces another folding fan from somewhere and opens it in front of her face while looking away.
"Zat is..." Amelia falls silent.
"Here, you can come sit with me, Vicky." Vivian moves over and pats the spot next to her, motioning for Vicky to sit down.
As she takes her place, Claus clears his throat. "Now then, continuing on..." He turns his head to his left. "Tucker?"
You tell him James would be better suited for this.
Axel sighs. "Dude, way to throw the bus at James..."
"'ow can you zrow a whole bus!?" Amelia stares at you in surprise.
"You totally butchered that saying..." Leanne says this, which seems a little out of character, but...you let it go.
James picks up for you. "Don't worry, I'll help you out." He doesn't seem to mind and casually goes on with his explanation. You know, James is kind of a casual guy for a doctor. You'd think he'd be more formal. "I spent most of my time inspecting the dormitory. It seems that the doors to our rooms are all left unlocked until we enter and lock it ourselves with our own keys. They come with a fully equipped bathroom and closets full of duplicates of our outfits. Furthermore, there's a doorbell that we may use to summon each other should one of us have the door locked. The only issue, however, is that there is no way to really communicate while the doors are shut. There's no intercom function. Other than that, it seems all of our rooms are fairly similar." He turns to Dennis. "Well, it's your turn."
"Well in an effort to be concise I won't repeat any info already given or give you any someone else is better suited to relay, which leaves me with my room and the upstairs. Nothing of note was in my room. A key, a bed, and some clothes. Upstairs, however, was much more interesting. Now, I was only able to investigate one room before being interrupted by Nekoshi's "announcement". Within this room were many implements and artifacts befitting an Archeologist which is interesting given we have one in our merry little crew. Even if she didn't deign to grace us with her presence. This and the oriental look of the other door, potentially denoting our local Haiku Poet, Aki, led me to believe this school may have been designed and built explicitly for us. Which is a rather...disturbing thought. Of course, this is all conjecture until we can find more examples of these tailor made rooms."
"Whoa, I think I found something like that too!" Axel continues on. "Down in the basement, there was this fire pattern blast door. It was super weird, so I went inside. Then I found that there was a whole bunch of firestarting equipment and explosives! Well I mean...not necessarily bombs, but mostly stuff like fireworks for shows and stuff. It was kinda like the Ultimate Pyrotechnics Lab. There was even a blast room to test all this stuff in. It locks and everything! Oh, and there was a flamethrower, but I chucked it over the side of the island because Sam told me to get rid of it." Axel then looks over at Aki. "Okay, you're turn!"
"Well, the docks and the pool weren't particularly helpful... We are indeed on some sort of floating island..."
Leanne picks up where she left off. "I made sure to check the gym and the pool thoroughly. Not much was found in the gym aside from the storage closet. There was plenty of equipment for physical activities and swimsuits for the pool. There was also plenty of cleaning and maintenance supplies for the pool. The locker rooms are nothing too spectacular either. Exactly what you would expect. Showers, sinks, and mirrors. Not to mention lockers. Each one has our name on it and is opened using our handbooks, so if something is stored in your locker, nobody else can get into it. Finally, there's the pool. It's pretty simple. There's the pool and a lifeguard tower with a life ring and a whistle on it. More importantly, there are special rules. You can't swim in the pool at night or eat in the pool. That's all though." She then looks over to Amelia. "I believe you inspected the docks a bit further in detail than I did, correct?"
"Ah...yes, zat is correct. It appears zat ze docks do not actually 'ave any water. Zey just 'ang over ze edge like zis island was picked right up into ze sky. 'owever, what is more important is zat Nekoshi says you can take a boat from ze docks to ozer places. You can buy tickets for ze boats at ze little shack, but 'e said somezing about using coins. I do not know what 'e meant by zat." She looks to her side. "It should be Vicky's turn, but we were looking around togezer, so I do not zink she saw anyzing new..."
"In that case...I guess it's my turn." Vivian smiles at you all a bit nervously. "Well I made sure that the kitchen was fully stocked. There's a whole bunch of food to pick from there and I don't think we'll be running out anytime soon. There's also a room next to it with a really fancy door. It had plenty of cleaning supplies, a laundry room, and a mini dining room. Now that I think about it...maybe that's a lab for Claus. He's the Ultimate Butler after all." She looks over at him and thinks a minute. "Well, that's all for me. How about you, Erika?"
Erika is silent. After a moment, she realizes you aren't going to leave her alone until she talks. She sighs. "There's a room upstairs full of poetry with Japanese junk hanging everywhere. That's all I found. Now if you don't mind, I'd like to get back to my thoughts..." She slouches forward, blocking out the rest of you and returning to deep thought.
The attention turns over to Ashley. "Very well. Here's what I found." She places the fan away and speaks to you all. "There's an elaborate garden in the front with an oddly large tree and a waterfall as well as a lake. I would have explored further, but I...er..." Her face turns a bit red and before you know it, the fan's up again. "Sato was um...bathing in the lake at the time."
"How indecent..." Claus sighs.
"He knows we've got showers, right...?" Axel looks confused.
"Not that it matters, because I found something else worthy of note. The A/V Room. There was a multitude of videos along the shelves from educational to entertainment. They even had some with my gorgeous face in it. Anyhow, the setup is fairly perfect. There's a large screen and surround sound speakers. Those of you in my fan club would certainly be able to enjoy my movies in there."
As Ashley finishes, Sam and Sylvia enter the dining hall. "You're late," Claus says in a matter of fact tone.
Sylvia gives a nervous laugh and flashes everyone a big smile. "Sorry! We were a little caught up in our exploring."
Ashley crosses her legs. "Well, since you're here, tell us what you found."
"Uh...Err..." Sylvia takes a second to recollect her thoughts. "Well, we found a Game Room. Kind of. It was more like a casino. It was honestly really weird. All the games were out of order. There was also this uh...room. With a heart theme. I think it's probably best we pretend it's not actually a thing..."
The others turn to Spy. Claus interrupts, however. "Spy spent his time investigating with Dennis and Leanne, so there isn't much else to gain from his explanation."
"Well, that's everyone..." Leanne looks around the table at everyone.
James looks to you all. "I suggest that for now we all head back to our rooms and rest. It's almost night..."
You all agree and decide to head back.

Tucker will go home, lock the door, take his pen, and take notes on who discovered what on his walls in neat, small handwriting. After doing that, he will clean himself up, and head to sleep.

You head to your room, using your key to lock the door and start to write on the wall with your pen, taking notes on the others and what they did today.
You then take a quick shower and head to bed, feeling your fatigue wash over you as you fall into a deep sleep.

Chapter 1: Hunting Your Prey - Daily Life
You wake up to an obnoxious noise...
*BING BONG DING DONG*
"Goooood morning everyone! It's now 7:00 AM! Let's all get up, get out there, and have another WONDERFUL day in this school!"
Nekoshi's voice cuts out and you find yourself awake.
Well, you've got some free time. It seems like you'll be able to spend it however you like.

Tucker will head to the Dining Hall for breakfast.

You decide to head to the dining hall first thing in the morning, finding Sam, Sato, Ashley, Spy, and Claus there already.
Claus greets Sam. "Good morning, Sam."
He seems to be ignoring him, however.
Sam walks into the kitchen and grabs some fruit while Claus continues to speak to him. "...Would you like something to eat? I was just about to prepare breakfast for everyone and..." Sam walks out of the dining hall before Claus can even finish his sentence.
"...It doesn't seem like he'll be joining us." Claus heads into the kitchen and it sounds like he's starting to cook.

"What kind of guy would turn down hot breakfast?"
Tucker scribbles a note on his hand about this.
"Hey, Ashley, you're a movie star, right? What kind of movies are you in?"

Spy agrees with Claus. "It appears to be so...Well then, how are each of you doing at the moment?"
Sato responds in between gulps of food. "Nom nom...Great...Nom...!" This guy sure does eat a lot.
You ask why anyone would turn down breakfast before turning to Ashley and asking her about her acting career.
You notice a faint smile come across her face. Is she happy someone has taken an interest in her...? "Oh, are you interested in my fan club? I've been in nearly everything. Comedies, dramas, even a few documentaries. I've even done some voice acting." She clears her throat. "Well, I'm Vivian Hildebrand. I'm...not actually an Ultimate. Well, technically I am I guess. I was selected randomly to go here as the Ultimate Lucky Student. Heheh..." Whoa, she sounded exactly like Vivian! That was just like her introduction when you first got here! "Impressed yet?" She grins at you.

Tucker nods and makes a note on his hand.
"Yea, that is very impressive. Can you do other impressions?"

Post by Just14 on Jan 28, 2018 14:42:25 GMT -5
"Impressive."
You agree with Spy.
"I can do my own fair share of impressions. *Ahem* I CAN'T MAKE AN INTRODUCTION! ALL OF MY NOTES ARE GONE!!! MY LIFE'S WORK HAS DISAPPEARED FROM MY GRASP!!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE FRIENDS WITHOUT MY RESEARCH!?!? OH GOD, I'LL SAY SOMETHING STUPID IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE CLASSROOM AND I'LL RUIN 99 PERCENT OF MY PROJECTED PATHWAYS IN SOME STUPID BURST OF EMOTION!!" Spy does an impression of you. It's not as good as Ashley's, but it's...decent I guess?
You ask if Ashley can do any other impressions.
Ashley lets out a quiet chuckle. "Hmmhmm...Well, if you're really interested, I suppose I could show you more of my techniques." She seems happy someone's taken an interest in her.
You eat breakfast together and listen to Ashley's many different impressions. You feel like you've gotten a bit closer to her...
You've received a Friendship Shard!
As you finish up, you head your separate ways.
Looks like you've still got some free time.

You head to the A/V Room, finding it's exactly as Ashley described. The only difference is that the large screen is paused on an action scene with Ashley fighting an alien queen. It's pretty cool looking actually. Aside from that, nobody seems to be in the room.
