Mandatory Assembly

[wrnpcs]

Character(s): Everyone
Location: the Quad
Rating: PG-13 (possibly for language)
Open/Closed/Finished: Open
Summary: Headmaster Cid's called a mandatory assembly for all students.



After yesterday's meeting with the new Commander, Headmaster Cid knew he had little choice but to gather the students today to alert them about the changes that'd happen at their (and his) beloved Balamb Garden.

So he'd made an annoucement over the intercom and alerted all students, staff, and SeeD that they needed to be at the Quad promptly at 7:00 PM sharp after dinner. The stage's up and ready for the assembly, the folded chairs are all in place, but the chill in the air's enough to alert people to potential problems - if the new Commander sitting beside him doesn't alert people as it is.

"Would you describe our world as peaceful?" Jin asks this back-handed question with the sort of older brother playfulness that was meant to tease, but not mock. Her worries are his concerns, of course...but there was little Jin could to affect the situation. In the end, they'd have to adapt.

"It's probably better to keep to ourselves.." The cadet takes a sidelong glance at the other pockets of conversation going on throughout the assembly hall, "..and not get caught up in anything untoward. I wonder if they'll set the curfew earlier for a while." It's what he would do, after an announcement like this.

"A bit unlike you, but understandable." No one exactly prepares to wake up one day and be in yanked from their timeline into an entirely different world, after all, "But I did some research on that. You can add yourself to the dorm listings if you're in need of one."

At that, Tsubaki Yayoi shoots him an odd look. Is he poking fun at her? The very feeling makes her want to dig in her heels and refuse to rise to the bait--Which makes it worse, really. We're all very lucky that Jin rarely does this. "That's an entirely different question. I just mean that /here/, since they seem to work on a more mercenary level, something like that might have affected the amount of work they get..."

This could become a thing. Thankfully, there's another train of thought to distract her.

"...Well, yes, that's for the best," Says a girl who wouldn't think of getting herself involved in even the slightest thing described as "untoward." But more importantly:

"And wait. Really? Hm. I hadn't realized that. Then you can transfer rooms if you want to? Then maybe I'll have to look into that."

And that's the topic that seems to keep her attention. And so, as the room clears out and the occasional pocket of conversation continues, the two Academy students' conversation continues quietly as they exit the quad...
