10IV start!

[idolpro]

Who: 10IV
Where: The 10IV 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. Or assign them to each other, really, no one's stopping you.

Once you've chosen your color (or, once it's chosen for you), your closets will unlock with 3 sets of hospital uniforms fitted exactly to your size.

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. ]

Ah—!

...you mean me?

[onemoreknight]

Yes, I mean you! Are there other Cautus named Amiya around here? Haha! You know, I didn't really expect you of all people to participate in a competition like this!

[proceedwithcautus]

Um, Miss, I'm very sorry, but—I seem to be having some difficulty... remembering... where we know each other from?

[onemoreknight]

Oh, that makes sense! I'm pretty new, and you were busy when I joined on...I'm Maria Nearl, codename Blemishine of Rhodes Island...

[ she pauses for a second and takes out her phone. ]

But I guess here I'm Ten Scandalous Facts About The Radiant Knight (Number One Will Surprise You!) (You Won't Believe What Happens Next!) of 10IV? That's kind of a mouthful, huh...

[proceedwithcautus]

Um—

[ filing that... all gently away... ]

If it's all right, I'm just going to call you Blemishine, then?

1/3

[onemoreknight]

Miss Amiya, no! That's definitely against regulation!

[onemoreknight]

...Thinking about it, I shouldn't even be calling you "Miss Amiya", actually! Oh no, I already messed up!

[onemoreknight]

According to this it says your title is "Black Rabbit", which is really cool! I don't think it's that accurate though, since you're brown? But "black" is much more sensational, I guess!

[proceedwithcautus]

I'm a little concerned about all the information on there, honestly...

...aren't you worried about this, though, er... Miss?

[ she's just going to stick with that rather than

whatever the hell that long name is ]

[onemoreknight]

Not at all! What's there to be worried about? This is just like a knightly competition program, right? Even if it was with my sister's help I still survived the Major and I've gotten a lot stronger since then, so something like this should be a breeze!

[proceedwithcautus]

[ survived... the Major... ]

Ah, I don't know if this is too personal a question, but—

...did you also get a message on your phone about. Um. Having died.

[onemoreknight]

...No?

[proceedwithcautus]

Ah—

I'm glad, then. But it seems like whatever this is—they're trying to make it a fierce competition.

[onemoreknight]

Wait, but—

Doesn't that mean you're saying you did get a message about how you died?

[proceedwithcautus]

...ah, really, don't worry about it!

[onemoreknight]

[ please hold.

she's going to look at her phone.

like, really look at her phone. let's actually read all this everything - ]

[ watching on tenterhooks... ]

[proceedwithcautus]

[ oh no ]

Ah, well—listen, at least we'll be able to work together, Miss!

[onemoreknight]

Wait, wait, wait! That means this isn't a competition at all! Not a knightly one, anyway! If I'm dead and unemployed and my sister is still exiled, who's going to buy all our family's furniture back?! Now we're definitely going to lose our noble status! Even if there was a prize, I can't send prize money from the afterlife back to Terra, can I?!
