006 | High School Debut

Who: Everyone!
What: Substitute teaching
When: All day April 5
Where: A large public school in Tokyo
Summary: There are too many teachers sick and the Far Shore residents need to help fill in!



For some reason or another, many teachers have gotten sick just as the new school year is starting! In a panic, the school is seeking out every substitute teacher they can find, which is still not enough, and so the gods have to step in as reinforcements. And the Heavens are insisting on Far Shore residents helping strictly because this sickness seems so darn suspicious.

So anyone who looks old enough is being asked to step in as a substitute teacher and anyone who looks young enough is being asked to blend in as a new student, all to help the school and find out what exactly is causing this mysterious illness plaguing only the teachers of this school. There are many subjects open to teach and all Far Shore residents are expected to act as if they properly belong in this school while conducting their investigation. That means you'll have to teach properly or attend classes, depending on which role you've taken on.

Some gods might even find it useful to try and get information out of students by possessing one of their own, therefore guaranteeing the trust of the others around them. It's all up to you how you choose to investigate!

Newcomers will find the following note in their pockets as they are transferred to the school:

Greetings and apologies for the strange introduction.

I am sure you have many questions and concerns, but you have appeared at a very inconvenient time. Please attempt to help us, if you can, and we will reward you to the best of our abilities.

If you have any questions, you can seek out the counselor. Too many students underestimate what a good counselling session can do towards helping to alleviate their fears and uncertainties.

Kindest regards,
☼ Amaterasu ☼




Classes

Being a big school, there are dozens of different subjects available. As teachers, you can practically teach anything you would like to, and as students you are facing a constant stream of completely different kinds of information. Maybe the school needs to tone it down a bit on how many different subjects they offer...

Hallways

The hallways are always a great place to mingle and get to know the other students in the school. You'll see all sorts in the hallways, ranging from the beautiful girls being followed by their fanboys all the way to the delinquents who are promptly making their way away from the classrooms for the rest of the day. Hopefully somebody around here will be able to give you a heads up as to what's going on.

Lunch

Lunchtime is the easiest time to gather gossip and information. Whether you are staying in the classroom with a bento or heading to the cafeteria to wrestle for some bread or spending your lunch in the faculty room with the rest of the not-sick teachers, you will find that both the students and the faculty are more prone to chatting during lunch. And a lot of them talk about a curse laid on the school because of the late principal...

Counselling

Surprisingly enough, there is a white-robed shinki in the counselling office of the school, and the golden chrysanthemum of Amaterasu can be found on her tunic as well as on the door to her small personal office. Oddly, all of the other students and faculty keep passing the door by, but the counselling shinki simply continues to smile gently all the same.

FINAL BOSS

Turns out there is something causing the illness in the teachers, and it's an exceedingly large ayakashi, one so large that no single god could possibly take it down. You'll have to all work together to weaken it enough for the rending to work on it.

The battle for the FINAL BOSS will be posted on the OOC date of July 17, all threads involving destroying him should go there when it is posted. All other events leading up to the FINAL BOSS battle should slowly build to figuring out that an ayakashi is at work.



In Summary:
  • Blend in
  • Make sure to go to class
  • Don't forget lunch!
  • Investigate the illness
  • Seek counselling if you need it
  • Defeat the FINAL BOSS
  • Have fun~

[He gulps back whatever other ill-spoken thoughts he might have, and follows along with her push to regain normalcy.]

It was a while ago, anyway. I guess--have you been able to learn anything useful with, er, with Tetsuo?
galactically: (holier than thou)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-21 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't even spoken to anyone with him yet! I was about to until a certain god showed up.

[And thus, she gives Takuto a look, hands on her hips which, frankly, clashes with the manly appearance she's currently donning.]
tauborn: (ginga wink)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-21 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
[The classic Sheryl pose in a boy's body makes him grin at its absurdity.]

Well, don't let me get in your way. Just... if you're going to be a boy, you should at least... act more like one? [He mimics her pose (which seems easy after Sonic's weird theater class), but he's got one eyebrow raised pointedly as he pops one hip.]
galactically: (stop groping my hopes and dreams!)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-21 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Huh?! Are you mocking, boy?!

[This is already embarrassing as is, and yet seeing Takuto mimic her pose is the cherry on top of the hideous sundae known as today. She scowls, balling her fist at him.]

I can totally act like a man! Just you wait!
tauborn: (beach salute)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-21 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs, not at her, really, but more because the situation is just absurd. He raises his hands in surrender, still chuckling to himself.] Just don't overdo it and I'm sure you'll be fine!

[After all, she'd passed as a weird but passable boy for the first few minutes of their conversation.]
galactically: (be good boys and girls)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-21 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Of course I will.

[Sheryl may be amiable, but let it be known that she's capable of payback... even with her expression slowly morphing into an innocent look, the spark of mischief in her eyes.]

In fact, you'll be the one to help me.
tauborn: (you sure about that)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-21 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
What, you want lessons on how to be a boy from me?

[If you want to be a fabulous bishounen then he's your man. And, theoretically, who better than a penis god to teach a girl how to be boyish. But maybe she had something else in mind as she seems pretty strong-willed already and blushes less than Takuto to start out with.]
galactically: (you won't find a woman as great as me)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-21 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Not quite.

[Takuto might regret asking it... maybe, because as soon as she delicately places a hand on his shoulder, her gentle hold shifts into a vice grip.]

I heard you gained some female followers at school. Introduce me to them~

[She's using him as bait.]
tauborn: (i suspect a trap)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-22 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
You... you want me to introduce you to girls.

[He's really not sure how he feels about this, but since it kind of has the feeling of a the plot of some weird manga then it's probably going to be fun to play along. Still, he can't shake the feeling it's like some friend just begging him to be the wingman or something. But it's not as if he can say no with her manly hand of steel clenching his shoulder.]

Okay.
galactically: (holier than thou)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-22 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
We're in this school to learn about this strange curse, right? Then get to it!

[Takuto, you have a very weird imagination. But either way, Sheryl wastes no time in grabbing Takuto by the collar of his shirt and basically dragging him around using her follower's natural strength. Perhaps the girls might be of use to her if they spill any details.]
tauborn: (i sense you are lying)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-22 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I said okay already! [He stumbles a few steps before catching up and walking properly, brushing her hand off his collar as best he can.]

Do you want the prettiest girl or the most persistent? [Not that he... keeps track or anything....] Neither of them were giving me any useful rumors, but I'd guess either of them to be pretty well connected in the school.
galactically: (to pout cutely)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-22 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Whoever is the most cooperative, obviously.

[She's tempted to attach the word "duh" to the sentence but thinks better of it. Luckily for Takuto, Sheryl releases her grip on his collar to smooth out the uniform she's donning at the moment.]

But if they're connected to this school, they should have some details about it.
tauborn: (ginga wink)

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-22 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
[He sighs.] Okay, so she's a first year, in class B. Her brother just graduated, so she's friends with a lot of the upperclassmen and she's pretty popular in her year, too. [He turns down a hallway, making his way towards the girl's homeroom.] Er, how should I introduce you?
galactically: (be good boys and girls)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-23 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sheryl curls a finger around her chin like she's assessing Takuto's words very, very carefully... but she quickly nods with an approving smile. The choice is easy.]

Tell her that I've seen her around the school before. The guy that I'm possessing is an upperclassman, too.
tauborn: (ladies~)

it's a little game I like to call haaaaaave you met sheryl?

[personal profile] tauborn 2016-07-28 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods and then, arriving at the girl's homeroom, casually leans in, searching for the cute girl who was doggedly trying to find out if Takuto had just moved into the area and if perhaps he lived at the same apartment complex as her. Spotting her, he gives a wave and steps just inside the classroom.]

Hey. [She comes over, all flustered smiles, and then turns even more pink when she sees handsome Sheryl-in-disguise standing not too far away. Takuto glances over at Sheryl briefly, then grins at the girl.] He's been showing me around today a bit. Do you know him? He says he's seen you around before.... [He trails off meaningfully and steps back very slightly, inviting the girl to go talk to Sheryl.]
galactically: (you won't find a woman as great as me)

[personal profile] galactically 2016-07-28 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[The moment Sheryl sees the blushing girl that Takuto is referring to right in front of her, she flashes a friendly grin, making a peace sign with two fingers. She'll mentally apologize to Tetsuo for using his body for intel gathering, sometime... hopefully sooner than later before she forgets.]

Yo. This guy over here mentioned you for a bit. Care for a talk?

[Ah, to mimic someone else entirely. Perhaps Sheryl should try her hand in the acting business once this is all over.]
