Who: FiN and any visitors who dare brave the snake pit.
Where: FiN dorms
When: Day 124 after fanmail

[so yeah, so we have cybersnakes in a pit now. just try not to pull the wrong lever at the wrong time. we also have a balcony now! there's futuristic sliding doors and it sports a miniature landing strip?

and if you take a look into Duality's room, it's suddenly bigger and cluttered with a cat sized obstacle course and all kinds of cat related things. it's like a cat paradise in there]

Ah—

[Duality has halted at the threshold to his room, wide eyed for just a moment before he goes to hunt down Yuki to introduce her to all the new shiny things in his room]

[justpure]

[Uh. About that pit?

Medusa has safely gotten his fanmail into his room and is now inspecting the lever and entryway. He's poking his head out the second door, glancing down at the floor for a moment. Is that tile, or a gap? And what's this lever do? He decides to pull it to find out.

SHUNK! The floor gives way to a giant pit of robotic snakes.]

Oh dear... [He nervously glances down into the snake pit...] Erm... Does anyone know how to reset this trap?

[Sorry to everyone trying to get in at the moment.]

[BALCONY! Fucking balcony!

Intensity lives here now (when he's not working in the lab anyway). This is evident by Blue Eyes curled up in her dragon sized pet bed and Intensity resting his head on Blue Eyes's flank, watching the sky from where he's laying down]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Looking over his shoulder----






Oh.

This is bittersweet with Shogun and Infinity gone]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Get yourself something nice?

[justpure]

[Alas, Medusa wouldn't know who those two are.]

... Help?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

I don't see the problem.

[asonoficeandfire]

It was a while ago that I ordered it, but yes.

[this might be one of those rare times you see him genuinely excited about something]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Takes one look around and---]

I see Yuki gets your room.

Where are you going to sleep now?

[justpure]

Ah. The pit- It's... How do you get the floor back?

[Why do we even have this lever?]

[asonoficeandfire]

Oh...

[this was a long time coming and the right people aren't even here to appreciate it]

Maybe it can be reset with technokinesis.

[asonoficeandfire]

My bed is still there. I'm sure she'll let me borrow it.

[thinkoutsidethebox]

[Erika's going to peer in at the unmoving snakes and make some of them start to slither with Technokinesis.]

[thinkoutsidethebox]

[At some point, Erika is sitting in the common area reading a book, having stolen one of the snakes from the snake pit. She has it curled around her arm. It's her ceramic arm, so the plates shifting make scraping metal noises as it moves.]

[rollplayinghouse]

[And a little later on!! Knock knock you have a visitor.]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

As long as you stay in your corner of it.

[resonantblue]

You should not pull random levers.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Looks pointedly at the lack of floor, snakes, and back to the inaccessible entrance to the dorm]

Still don't see the problem.

[asonoficeandfire]

That's fine. Is the balcony yours?

[resonantblue]

[coming to check out the balcony—specifically, the view it offers]

Awe-inspiring... not a bad purchase.

[justpure]

Hm...

[He stares at the floor...

Slowly, the floor returns.

... He lets out a sigh of relief.]

[resonantblue]

[sitting at a cube nearby, trying to go through her notebook]

...why...

[resonantblue]

You acquired entertaining furniture for your cat?

[justpure]

[He jumps, but as someone who has also recently bought Technokinesis he realizes what is happening.]

... Why do we have this?

[justpure]

But it's in our dorm. How else would we learn what it does?
