Grand opening!

[avibusraris]

[As soon as it's 7:00 am, there is a loud beep that echoes through the corridors of the prison. It's time for an announcement as the intercom comes on.]

Good morning my wonderful criminals, how are you all feeling? Don't worry, I can assure you that dizzy spell will wear off as soon as you get up and stretch those legs of yours. Be careful of your collar as well, as you might have guessed it has all sorts of functions! Also, today is December 8th, Sunday, and it's currently 7 am.

Now, it would be in your best interest to read your manuals that we've given you, just so you can get nice and settled in.

I'm afraid it's a little cold outside, if you have time to check the courtyards then you'll most likely feel that winter's breeze on your rosy little cheeks! Do be careful, I don't want any of you getting frostbite on your first day, that would be tragic.

Since it's the grand opening for you new comers, we are currently holding a small party in the cafeteria! Grab your soon-to-be-friends and head on down. We have tables set up and food as well!

Thank you and have a wonderful day!

[With that being said, the doors to the cells now slide open, allowing the inmates to leave their rooms.

In the cafeteria majority of the tables have been cleared away, and the ones that remain have red tablecloths on them, nice and fancy! The spread consists of luxurious food, even sweets of all kinds. Since it's December, it seems that the warden is in a rather giving mood, aren't you all lucky! ]

That's quite the impressive accomplishment. And what are these tournaments like? I can't say I have ever had the privilege of experiencing one.

[ Loki very much appreciated her inability to stay quiet. ]

[sevenseconds]

Suuuuuper intense! I get far enough, but I've never won any...

[she laughs nervously.]

[vaframenti]

To get far at all is still a worthy accomplishment. If the manuals are any indication of what we are to face, your abilities will be a great advantage.

[ He noted the nervous tinge to her laugh and offered her a reassuring glance in return.

He was beginning to wonder why she had yet to ask him anything about his own sentencing. ]

[xiaoyu wants to pry, she really does, but at the same time she feels like it's not her place. not just yet. she'll be asking him so many questions after the shock of being in prison sets in.]

Hey thanks, that means a lot to me. You're an okay guy, Loki.

[vaframenti]

[ Loki furrowed his brows for a moment, carefully considering what she had said. Xiaoyu had no reason for insincerity, yet it was strange to be deemed "okay" by any stretch of the imagination. ]

I should be thanking you. I've not received such kind words in a very long time.

[sevenseconds]

Whoa what? I hardly said anything overly kind!

[just what kind of life did this guy lead if he thought that was too kind?!]

[vaframenti]

Perhaps not, but the worth of kind words is not confined to how great or small they are.

[ She probably wouldn't want to know. ]
