Who: YOU-kai
Where: The YOU-kai dorms
When: Day 355, morning

[ You all wake up in bed with your smartphone at your bedside, all of you in your sleepwear, with a message on your phone.

Good morning, newly departed guest stars! You've got new co-stars to meet, a new dorm to explore, and the television in the main room with the "names" of everyone in your unit with flashing empty boxes next to them, waiting for you to each assign yourself a personal color as well as a mythological creature (if that is available to you—some of you will have that option grayed out). Or assign them to each other, really, no one's stopping you.

Once you've chosen your color and creature (or, once it's chosen for you), your closets will unlock with 3 sets of traditional Japanese clothing fitted exactly to your size. Additionally, upon choosing your creature, you might find yourself suddenly with some new appendages (check Player Notes).

Also, the front door is currently locked. It looks like you actually have no choice but to get to know each other for an hour or two before those open up. ]

No.

But children should at least have that experience, when they are able.

That ship sailed a long time ago.

You are too small for such defeat.

Do not worry, though. We will win.

I'm not defeated.

And I'm not worried. We will win.

And yet you speak of things outside your reach, as if they are impossible.

[ she nods, though. ]

I speak of things I have no need for as though I have no need for them.

If existence is so miserable for you, perhaps you should not try to win at all.

It isn't any of your business what I do and don't do, and why I'm doing it.

Incorrect. As a team, it becomes my business, when your success hinges on our teamwork.

[ huffs, though, mouth quirking. ]

Your bark is loud, for one so young. Would that your teeth be sharp to match.
