you need a bloody shower [post-event mingle]

[bloodyashes]

Characters: Any and all!
Setting: Floor 77, sauna
Format: Action-mingle - start your own threads!
Summary: The event is over and everyone who was stuck in the dorms needs a serious bath.
Warnings: Post-event shenanigans? Also baths so p much everyone is at least partially naked.

And so now that you've made your way free of the hell that is the dorm rooms -

This floor mimics a sauna--there are three entrances: one for men, one for women, and one for mixed. Inside each room is the wooden interior one would expect. Outside each area is a small changing room with lockers--if you look, you'll find one with your name on it. The locker will only open up for you. It might be a good place to store things, actually...

- it's time for everyone to take a bath! There's both hot, steamy stalls and large hot spring pools - but you'd better hurry! It's gonna get crowded in here kind of fast.

And hey, keep that towel closed, there's children in here!

[ right. ]

It would eat up a lot of time. Perhaps we should dream while we can, and focus on defeating them in the first place.

[ Hidetoshi folds his hands together underwater. ]

[alephbet]

That sounds like a good plan to me.

[Siiigh. But where to start with that.]

[altitonant_emperor]

[ ........... How do you defeat a superpowered kid, an architect, a six-armed plague-doctor-faced scienist, and Ruana? ............

He doesn't know. As a joke; ]

We should strongly consider exorcising Ruana.

[alephbet]

Those can go wrong so easily though. And I don't know how to do one.

[...he missed the joke.]

[altitonant_emperor]

[ Hidetoshi could almost hear the "whoosh." ]

I was being facetious, Aleph-san.

[alephbet]

Oh. I didn't realize.

[woooooosh]

[altitonant_emperor]

[ His feathers aren't too ruffled anyway. ]

It's fine.

[alephbet]

I don't know that many jokes. How old is 'why did the chicken cross the road'? Do you already have that one?

[altitonant_emperor]

[ Hidetoshi stares at him.

Then he guffaws. ]

Yeah—that's the oldest cliche in the joke book, actually! There are so many variations. Hey, it survived the apocalypse?

[alephbet]

Alive and well, if even I know it. It's pretty impressive for anything to survive the apocalypse, even a silly joke.

[altitonant_emperor]

Indeed. [ He manages to muffle his coughing-laughter behind the back of his wet hand, tired eyes crinkling at what is an objectively silly thing to find funny. ] It's probably older than my whole family, my grandmother included and her grandmother too, and her grandmother before that combined.

[alephbet]

I'm glad it amuses you that much without me even telling it. [Snrk.]

[altitonant_emperor]

[ Sincerely: ] It's a bad joke. I wouldn't laugh if you did.

It's the [ srk ] context that amuses me.

[alephbet]

Maybe I can learn some better ones from the books in the library. I've seen a couple joke books... And I have a lot of time I don't know what to do with.

[altitonant_emperor]

Perhaps I'll join you if you ever get around to that. There's only so much I can do to assist the collar researching team I'm on.

[ That's he spends most of his free time; helping with collar research. ]

[alephbet]

I'm not involved with any of that.

[He doesn't really want to talk about it in public, though. It's secret, right?]

[altitonant_emperor]

[ He thought the sauna was safe from the administrators' ears and eyes. :/a ]

Ah, right. Do you remember which section of the library joke books are located in then?

[alephbet]

It should be with the nonfiction humor section, which is a little towards the back and to the left from the stairs.

[altitonant_emperor]

[ ... There's a nonfiction humor section? ] Right, thanks for telling me.

[alephbet]

[Comedians and all that.] You're welcome.

[altitonant_emperor]

[ Hidetoshi nods and relaxes a bit into the water. ]
