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. ]

Okay. Good.

Maybe find a game to focus on. It can help some kids who get overwhelmed to focus on something like that.

[nothingtomourn]

...

If there's any books...

[agentgymstudent]

Are you familiar with the internet?

[nothingtomourn]

Yes.

[agentgymstudent]

Listen, there's a girl growing rocks, I'm getting ready for all weird.

But try googling public domain books? Something might pop up. I'll look around, but this place is pretty barren.

[nothingtomourn]

[Just this face.]

[agentgymstudent]

Prefer real books over a screen?

[nothingtomourn]

...No.

It's fine. I'll be alright.

[agentgymstudent]

Its fine if you have a preference.

[nothingtomourn]

I shouldn't be spending my time reading anyway.

[agentgymstudent]

I mean.

Research is one of our things.

[nothingtomourn]

Not when we're in the dorms.

[Still, it looks like most people have gotten their picks done by now so he will... slowly begin heading over to the TV...]

[agentgymstudent]

True, but still.

Could find a subject, find books, you do the research and I can present?

[nothingtomourn]

[A pause. But then a nod.]

Okay.

[agentgymstudent]

Use of our specific skills is good. [He smiles.] Good to have hustle and help out, but pacing is good too.

So things get too overwhelming with people, that's an option.

[nothingtomourn]

...I just... need to get that ticket. So I'll be sure not to drag the team down.

[Anyway. Picking green for his color, hurray.]

[agentgymstudent]

....I do too.

[And hopefully figure out what some stuff he said MEANT so he can decide how to use it.]

We can't lose.

[nothingtomourn]

[Nodding.

...Oh, hey, doors are also opening up.]

[agentgymstudent]

Looks like its time to see what's out there.

[nothingtomourn]

[Lookin kind of uncertain about this, but giving a nod.]

...We should go, then.

[agentgymstudent]

Hey, look at me.

[nothingtomourn]

[...Looking at him.]

[agentgymstudent]

You got us.

You need help, just call. I'll come. Promise.

[putting on his friendliest face.]

[nothingtomourn]

[...

He looks away again. But before they can leave:]

How am I supposed to call you if I don't know your name?

[agentgymstudent]

....my profile says 'I Have Many Skills'.

Which is a mouthful of a name. So I should probably use a nickname.
