Arriving at the Facility

[hageshii]

Who: All Draftees!
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: As of this morning
Where: The dorm facilities outside the enclosure
Summary: General shenanigans for people inside the dorms.
Rating: PG-13, probably.

[After traveling through the tunnels, draftees will arrive in the hotel-like dorm facilities. For information on what to expect, please read here! This is open comment log for anyone, so threadjack away! But remember, you can only enter someone's room if they let you.

If you haven't already, check out this post and get your character assigned to a team!]

SPECIAL NOTE!! - Since this didn't come up before (but should have, my bad), there are actually a minimum of 400 Third Party soldiers in each area as opposed to in total. This means there are 1200 of them over all.

....tele...vision...?

[markofthewise]

[Sokka gets to feel like Mr. Techno Savvy because his neighbor Paru has one of these. He picks up the remote and powers it up.]

See?

[HOLY SHIT DEMON MACHINE. Souji sees the box turn on, sees the pictures start moving and jumps behind the doorframe, thinking the things are going to come out after him.]

[markofthewise]

[WHOA. Sokka turns it off.]

It's okay! It's not real! The television is just like the journal. It's moving pictures, that's all.

....

[And he'll poke his head around the corner again, staring at the box uncertainly.]

....The future is so odd.

[markofthewise]

Awesome is the word I'd use. [He doesn't bother flipping it back on. TV isn't really all that interesting to him.] I wish I could take some of this stuff to my real home. It would blow The Mechanist's mind!

[Souji....isn't sure how he feels about this moving, speaking box thing. The journal was hard enough to get used to.]

Who is the mechanist?

[markofthewise]

He's a GENIUS! He invented all kinds of things, like tanks, airships, and submarines. I helped with the last two, though.

[Okita has no idea what any of those words mean.]

That sounds amazing!

[markofthewise]

[Sokka nods enthusiastically.]

Yeah, the two of us are pretty much inventing geniuses.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Is that why you've taken to working at the smithy?

[markofthewise]

Well, kind of. Mostly that's because of my previous master, Piandao. He trained me and we forged my sword together.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

Ah, yes, I remember you mentioning that before...

Which reminds me: would you like to keep training in the mornings before we go to the field, or shall we take a break?

[markofthewise]

... I was kind of hoping that fighting all day long would count as training.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

As you wish.

If there is anything that happens on the battlefield that you would like advice on, please let me know.

[markofthewise]

[He nods.]

Of course, Master Souji. [As long as it doesn't involve music.]

[OKAY SERIOUS TIME IS OVER.]

Until then~ Enjoy your demon box and the fun toys this place has~

[markofthewise]

[He snickers.]

I'm sure me and my demon box will have a lot of fun.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

You'll have to show it to me again sometime~ When my heart is a little more calm.

[markofthewise]

You've got it! Maybe I'll even find something worth watching too.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

I hope so. It seems strange to have a demon box and not do anything with it.

[markofthewise]

Well, that's demon boxes for you, right?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

I guess so!
