STARTING POST: AVANTE EN GARDE

[idolpro]

WHO: avante en garde
WHERE: Dormitory, 11th floor
WHEN: Day 1, Morning

[ You all wake up in bed with your smartphone at your bedside. The closet door is locked, so if you want to change out of your sleepwear, no dice. If you try to remember why you locked your closet door, also no dice, since you remember absolutely nothing from before waking up.

At least you've got all these other amnesiacs waking up in the same dormitory you can ask questions that they also don't have the answer to! The only thing that even pretends to have answers is your smartphone, which helpfully has your profile, a rundown on your unit, a map and city information, and your job description: while your every waking moment is being filmed and broadcast to a live audience, you'll get to conduct lives, perform in videos, and participate in game shows where you'll compete against other units! Congratulations on becoming an idol!

The television in the main room is waiting for your input; the current display is a list of the "names" of everyone in your unit with flashing empty boxes next to each of them, much like the ones on your profiles, waiting for you to each assign yourself a personal color— your position within the unit.

Once you've all chosen, the closet doors will unlock. It seems the elevator doors are staying locked while waiting on other units to finish sorting out their positions. Maybe go put on some real clothes in the meantime. ]

((Your character's sleepwear is whatever you want it to be, be it embarrassing onesie or long nightgown or just boxer shorts, though only white and unit colored. This post is for you to meet and greet your unit; another post will be going up tomorrow for characters to explore the setting outside of their dorms and meet other units.))

[wandering into the common room with a yawn. he is wearing bright yellow, heart-patterned jammies, complete with matching heart-patterned nightcap.]

...Morninggg...

Ehhh? Where did you come from??

[unbr8kable]

[a scruffy girl in sweats looks up at him, unimpressed]

...Someplace no one in their right mind would wear that, I hope. A nightcap? Really?

[knightceties]

It was there when I woke up.

[unbr8kable]

And you couldn't resist? Or you just didn't resist?

[knightceties]

I just think the hat really completes the look, you know?

[unbr8kable]

I do not know, in fact. I can safely say I don't have any recollection of ever having any looks of that sort. Pretty sure that one is all for you.

[knightceties]

I don't know if I'm up to the task of being the only one with a hat...

[unbr8kable]

And yet, you are. It's you, the soul owner of that particular moniker. Maybe that's what you play in our little band or whatever. Hat guy.

[knightceties]

Sounds easy. I'll take it!

[unbr8kable]

You bet you will! So, first assignment, get a hat for the beanpole over there. Like you said, hats are a doubles sport.

[knightceties]

I feel like the acquisition of hats falls outside the scope of my role as wearer of them.

[unbr8kable]

How do you wear them if you can't acquire them? They've gotta come from somewhere.

[knightceties]

I've already got a hat.

[adjusts his nightcap]

[calmthefoxdown]

[ ... What are you wearing. ]

My room.

[knightceties]

[something with style, unlike the rest of you]

Your room...

Wait, how many rooms are there?

[calmthefoxdown]

I counted six on my way out.

[knightceties]

Maybe two more will show up later? Ahahaha, the four of us seem like a lot already, though.

[calmthefoxdown]

Or they're still sleeping and we should wake them up. Might as well get everyone out here.

[knightceties]

Ehhhh... Sure? If you want to.

[calmthefoxdown]

I'll check.

[ ... and return when I find no one else I guess. ]

Nevermind.

[knightceties]

So just the four of us? Well, that's fine with me. It'll make picking colors easier.

[calmthefoxdown]

Got one in mind already?

[knightceties]

Dibs on red!

[calmthefoxdown]

All yours.

[knightceties]

[keys that in next to the name ACE]

Alright, now it's your turn.
