We are the named and we are known

[lucetimods]

Who: All Draftees
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: 26th
Where: Dorms, location unknown
Summary: Dorm information is here. This is your room!
Rating: PG... we hope?

Your characters are shuffling off to their rooms. Each room has their name beside it and only they can open the door. People can only enter their room if they're allowed in (or they leave the door open). Characters will find any requested items in their room already. If they have a requested vehicle, there will be another door in their room that will take them to the hangar to inspect their equipment.

((Mod note: Extra draftees won't experience their Shift Incompatibility handicap in their dorms. :|a))

Hello Link. [She gives him a smile.] I'll be fine. I've been sent out here a few times before, and I'm not a stranger to battles.

It seems like you late additions are the ones to be worried about, though.

[blessedbyfarore]

That's good. There's some people that got picked that don't really fight... [He scratches awkwardly at his head - what were the Malnosso thinking, honestly?]

I guess... people keep saying that we're not really compatible. Do you know what that means?

[wise_maiden]

The compatibility would tie in to why those who can't fight have been drawn in as well. They test by shifts to see how a person would withstand the ongoing shifts in an area, or suffer from some form of side effect.

Up until now, they never drew in people that could face these effects, so we'll just have to be cautious of it.

[blessedbyfarore]

Huh... I wonder what will happen to me, then? [He's really not sure he likes the sound of that.]

[wise_maiden]

I don't know. Supposedly they said it was 'low risk', but that could mean anything. This isn't something we've dealt with, before... I believe Albert had suggested that the late arrivals to the list should wait where the defensive forces are dispatched until we know the situation.

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh... [Great. They drag him out all the way there and he can't even do anything to help.] Okay. I guess I'll just have to wait, huh?

[wise_maiden]

That's right. Hopefully it won't be anything too... strange, but we'll see what happens.

[blessedbyfarore]

Yeah... although if it was something that made us not able to fight, why would they bring us here, anyway?

[wise_maiden]

They might not have thought we had enough backup, given our numbers. Or perhaps whatever the trouble will be is something temporary. I can't say for certain.

[blessedbyfarore]

Oh... I guess. Well, I think it's dumb. Why was I compatible for the last one but not this one?

[wise_maiden]

Shifts are always changing, and it's a different environment. I just wish I knew more about how they worked.

[blessedbyfarore]

I guess... it's still not fair, though. How come I had to do two in a row? Some of my friends do, too!

[He... might not be aware that some people always get chosen because their muns are sadistic.]

[wise_maiden]

[She shrugs a little.] I know a few people who have been on every single one. It's not a contest, they simply take who will be compatible.

[blessedbyfarore]

All of them? [Aghast Link is aghast.] Wow... the Malnosso really aren't fair sometimes.

[wise_maiden]

It's not really a matter of fairness, Link. But since we're here, we'll do what we can to protect those who need it.

[blessedbyfarore]

[That's the magic word. Link straightens himself up, nodding firmly.] Okay. But I'm only fighting to protect everyone in the village, not because the Malnosso want me to.
