seasonality ✦ week 5, thursday 👻

[commandertoolbelt]

[ on thursday morning, there are strange signs (except... they’re all misspelled? who did this?) pointing everyone in the direction of winter dorm. follow, and you’ll find that they lead not to the dorm itself (whose doors remain closed and locked), but around the corner of the dorm, where a nice little shack awaits.

it looks quite normal, if you ignore the torn curtains in the windows, and the way the lights flicker from inside. and there’s an odd lack of… well, anyone, as guests approach - though you may see movement out of the corner of your eyes - was there something there? you must have imagined it, because you’re definitely hearing things. the door to the shack gives a loud creak as it opens, all on its own, fog spilling out to pool around your feet. the dim lights within illuminate a nearby sign that reads:

enter if you dare.

(it's not a culture festival without a haunted house! if you’ve ever wanted to be jumpscared by all of winter dorm, now’s your chance!) ]

[Oh I desperately want to break the seal on this. ENTERING!!! He dares.]

Hello? Ghosts? How's it going.

[duranduel]

[Walking up. Seeing all this?]

[Turning around.]

Nope.

[Someone please yeet him in.]

[modissty]

[Cultural festivals are so damn weird but HE'S JUST FROWNING AT ALL OF THIS... He dares as well though, so in he goes!!]

Is it alright to be here...?

[Asked aloud to no one in particular except perhaps the ghost of Dimitri The Rat Shack Man, whose shack this clearly is.]

[silentscout]

[Lalli has already been Warned and will not be going near the haunted house.

But he will sit on the roof of Fall dorm and watch from a distance, waving to anyone who happens to look up and see him. He's still curious, so sue him.]

[feytality]

Hey ghosts, it's ya girl, Maya!

[ she says that but she is afraid of ghosts and will absolutely get jumpscared ]

[branches]

[I mean he's wandering over to Winter dorm then. He doesn't seem afraid.]

Isn't this in bad taste? We have a bunch of dead people and also Manwol is a ghost.

[foreversweaterweather]

[ stares at this haunted house and. squints. suspiciously.

then enters with no fear! ]

Heyyy, are you guys the ones who swapped the maid cafe to Fall for the haunted house?

[azuta]

[wow!

she lives here and she looks nervous!]

... we really outdid ourselves...

[miss iris why did help go wholeass on a haunted house when you're easily spooked]

[darksubverted]

[THEIR freaking HAUNTED HOUSE!!! He looks over the front of this like :\ because it was supposed to be theirs!

I am so sorry he is a stupid edgy teen who doesn't seem bothered by this. If anyone else wants to make him a meat shield, feel free, but he will mosey inside.]

Show yourselves. You'll have to pay from taking this event from Fall Dorm.

[lifeless]

[manwol heads straight to the haunted house, but not before posing in front of the shack and taking a selfie. THEN she heads in,]

I'm expecting only the best from all of you.

[DON'T LET HER DOWN!!!]

[shaft]

[ Kicks open the door (gently), and raises a fist. ]

Come hither, infernal creatures! You'll find that mine spirit is not so easily toppled!

[ Noses around to harass the innocent haunted house workers. ]

[overlimit]

[rita shrinks back a little when the door opens, looks around, and is immediately like, nope.]

Wh, what are you guys...

Never mind. This is stupid. I don't want to know.

[alitaba]

[ Futaba Is Not Going in but she will stand out here and scowl at it. how dare they take our haunted house!!! ]

At least wear maid costumes too, you assholes.

1/2

[goalsides]

[he's entering! and he's looking behind him, flashing a grin.]

Are you coming with me or not?

[amain]

[ Enters out of curiosity! What happens here in ye olde winter rat shack. ]
