action ; open base mingle

[octoroom]

It’s been about a month or so since people started arriving to this world and onto the base—a month of shenanigans, exploration, danger, angry sealife and other things. In this still-small base, there’s all kinds of things that characters can do so, therefore, consider this an all-purpose base mingle post.

prompts:

→ i. it’s a fixer upper
[In the wake of the Aurora explosion, there were quite a few things that needed repairing. Even then, the base itself is by no means complete, with limited room and not even rooms for each and every person. Luckily, there aren’t all that many living in the base! Yet.

But, there’s always something to do. Are you helping with repairs? Trying to decorate the base somehow? Building something new that can add to it? Perhaps you’re one of those in the laboratory, researching what species that this ocean has to offer. Hopefully nothing else is blowing up.

Or are you just standing around, staring wistfully out at the ocean and not contributing at all? I mean, that’s fine, but…]


→ ii. catch of the day
[How’s that seafood? What? You have no idea how to cook it? Well, then.

It’s probably like sushi, where you can eat it raw, right? Or maybe you’re one of those bringing back fresh supplies to the base. Possibly still wriggling around fresh supplies. Can you actually (miracle of miracles) cook some of the fish/other things that are probably fish so that they don’t taste half-bad?

If all else fails, just munch on some seaweed. I hear it’s nutritious.]


→ iii. it’s like a giant sleepover
[Surely there’s nothing awkward about cramming yourself into one of the ‘free’ rooms around the base with your air mattress and curling up there. Have you set out a space for yourself? Found a nice spot where you’re usually alone but uh-oh don't count on that for too long?

Perhaps you’d rather just sleep in the hallway to avoid drifting off near others.

Maybe you just don’t sleep at all or you prefer roaming the base when it gets dark. Nightmares about sea creatures can be a doozy.]


→ iv. choose your own/wildcard option
[What else has your character been doing? Go wild!]

(These prompts are loose so you can make your own prompts for people to tag out of them. Make headers, tag around, use this post for whatever you like!)

That...sounds pretty serious.

[And that's putting it lightly. Murdering your teacher doesn't sound like part of everyday curriculum. They're missing a ton of context though, so he's not sure if there's anything he can do to make there be less murder in this situation???]

I'm guessing you've already put plenty of thought into this since it doesn't seem to bother you, but shouldn't there be another way?

[oneandmikleonly]

You...you don't actually want to die, do you?

[He believes, fairly strongly, that Korosensei doesn't -- he seems to enjoy life too much for that, for the most part. But the question comes out uncertain anyway, and more than a touch distressed.]

[tentaculled]

Of course not.

[ in response to Mikleo. No one wants to die. But to be killed for the sake of others - those that are important to him - is a different story. ]

To tell the truth, my students have been searching for another way. Perhaps they'll find it. Sensei is leaving it all in their hands.

[Sorey likes Korosensei's students already.]

You're putting a lot of faith in them. But I'm glad it hear it.

[oneandmikleonly]

Me too. It seems like a difficult situation all around, but...they sound like a resourceful group.

[ at least these two are handling the whole world destruction news well. unlike some people. dirk!! He nods a few times, pressing a tentacle to his chest. ]

They're a truly wonderful class. I'm glad that I was able to meet them. [ at first, he was just fulfilling his promise - but it didn't take long for him to truly embrace his role and come to genuinely care for them all. ] If anyone can do it, it's them. They all have the potential to do amazing things.

[imsorey]

[World destruction is always a possible threat, it's not a problem as long as you avert the world-ending part.]

If you're that confident in them then I'm sure they can manage it. And if they need some help, maybe someone here can give them some pointers. A guest speaker from another world would be pretty impressive, right?

[Completely, perfectly deadpan:]

It's true, Sorey's better at pep talks than he looks.
