Post by Hitoshi Tottori on Jul 24, 2015 17:34:48 GMT
After the whole induction ceremony had ended (In addition to the prepared breakfast) Hitoshi had decided that whilst people went to check their rooms, the opposite wing had some strange appeal. It was quiet, immediately making in interesting, and everyone else's room seemed to be in the East wing. Books like "Beauty and the Beast" had left a huge impact on him, making him think empty wings must hold some dark and mysterious secret to the mansion, it made sense, right? Either way it was worth a good explore, surely he'd find something in there. He pushed his key into his pocket and walked all the way across the mansion to the East wing. Little did he expect to meet up with Ishin Shishi on the journey there. He recognised him as the Ultimate LARPer, another talent he wasn't even sure existed, but he sure was willing to give it an appreciation and attempt to discover more. With a smile, he greeted the other The idea of investigating a potentially dangerous wing by himself intimated him slightly, so he asked the other to join him on his investigations. Whether the sword was fake or not, he could certainly defend them from any monster hiding up there. Carefully he opened the grand door to the wing, almost a little disappointed when it seemed to be almost identical to the other. "Ah...Look at all these rooms...I wonder why everyone was crowded into the East wing with all this space..." Sure the East wing had plenty of room, but it still made Hitoshi a little curious.

The idea of exploring the manse was a good one, truthfully. While Tottori seemed like a good fellow and such, and he did want to know more of him, he had more felt that going alone might have been better for his mind. He did not like making others worry with his own thoughts, and this place was already driving him into a corner with worry and doubts. While the other had introduced himself he did the same, but he left most of the talking on the way to the other wing to Tottori, only speaking with simple yesses or nos. It seemed like the best way to communicate for now.
He did have to agree with the other on the space issue. "Yeah... Weird." He looked around all the free rooms. "Maybe more students are coming that we do not know about? Or the staff lives here." A definite possibility. "If any staff even lives here..." He mumbled that last part to himself, walking past the therapist as he swung a door open. It was a basic bedroom, not as stylized as his own room had been the time he checked, although the lamps were a bit nicer than the tacky ones he had been given. Maybe he should ask the organizers about possibly switching up into the lamps that were held here.
He looked back to the therapist. "I do not think we can find anything interesting here, except if you believe room arrangements are interesting... And even then, I fear that the contents of these rooms are all the same."

The journey he was sure would be followed by a minor success seemed to crash a little, yet he kept up a small enough smile. He followed the other into the hallway and peered into the room, it did not seem as if Staff had touched these beds before, or anyone had for that matter. It just seemed slightly...Off, in a sense he couldn't quite describe no matter how much he tried. The fact this whole wing was eerily empty bothered him for some reason, but he pushed it to the back of his mind.
"Mhmm...Maybe...they all look the same...But, this place..." He glanced around, then looking back at the LARPer. "I haven't seen any staff, so it just makes me wonder a bit...Y'know? Why have a whole extra wing...It'd make sense to place boys in one wing and girls in the other, right...? it just seems...Strange" He gave a small sigh, hoping he wasn't over thinking things, hoping he was still making sense to the quiet other.
At least while they were alone he could talk to the other, he had noticed some tense body signals from the other but he wasn't sure if he should mention them. Maybe just attempt to loosen him up by talking in this place.

"Aye, that is a good point. I looked at the walls before... They seemed thick? Possibly soundproof, but. In the girls and boys rooms, that is. Or mine, at the very least. Not easy to drill trough, so if any perverts happen to be in our little group, they'd have to spend days making a hole to peek at others." He snorted at the thought. Nobody here seemed like the type to get especially perverse, actually. Everyone was at the very least refined or normal, ranging from the most normal (the procrastinator) to the most strange (Prima Donna) in his eyes. He was probably the strangest looks wise, but. He hadn't worn normal clothing in months. He had just gotten so used to his own comfortable role outfits.
"As for the staff... That too seems strange. I had been looking for them before we met, yet I did not even see a soul. This all feels very, very strange. Perhaps my nerves are being shot by the fact that I am in the presence of so many talents at once. I never even heard of how many students were going to come here!" A bombastic laugh echoed from him, his hands landing onto his hips as he walked out from the room. He then narrowed his eyes and stared across the hall.
"Maybe more are coming and these rooms are reserved for them?"

The other seemed pretty confident, it was reassuring at least. To hear another felt these circumstance were slightly off helped as well, everyone else seemed to be perfectly comfortable already, those he had talked to at least. The comment about how other would have to go through great lengths to be peeking toms made him chuckle lightly, he sincerely doubted anyone he had seen today would go through such lengths, or they would be severely scolded if they did. A few girls seemed pretty stern when it came to the school rules, as well did one or two of the boys. "That's true, plus someone else would report it, I'm sure they're pretty strict here." He chuckled.
As the other left the room and stared across the hall, he turned and looked at well, curious as to see what had caught his attention. When he saw merely another door, he looked back around at Ishin and frowned slightly. AT least he managed to find out something concerned him, even if he wiped it off in a strange way. "Neither had I, in fact...I expected more...Like a class from one year? But this seems like a kinda random mix...It's a little weird, and kinda scary too" He sighed a bit at the thought of it, surely more than 16 people would have signed up to this...So why did these select people get to go? Names out of a hat? Surely then more Lucky students would have been selected.
"I would have though we'd all arrive together if more were coming...or they'll have to repeat the orientation...Seems like a lotta hassle.."

"Perhaps a scheduling issue. I've faced a few times where different companies cannot arrange things, or where one must order busses from different companies which arrive at different times. Mayhaps a similar issue is here? Some students could be coming from foreign countries, or possibly the people they hired to make all the food asked for some to come a little later so that they can prepare enough meals for everybody?" He knew that he was reaching for some straws here, but he liked to try and rationalize to himself that he was just being afraid for no reason.
"Or maybe we're both just being a bit too paranoid, eh? It's not like we were forced to come here, and it's to better the world. A noble cause like that is just probably making us both a bit nervous and making us grasp at little things that could be easily explained." That must be it, or so he thought. He looked around the long hallway filled with doors. "... Say, Tottori?"
"What do you think about Ai?" He looked back to the other, expecting him to say something. Hopefully this would reveal to him that he wasn't the only one a bit suspicious about the A.I.

Whilst the other talked about suggestions to the situation, he nodded politely, taking all into consideration. He was near certain they were over thinking things and working themselves up...That was not good especially for someone of his job. You can't help others relaxed when you are stressed yourself, that much was obvious to anyone. He let out a sigh and looked around a bit, hoping the arrangements had been an issue and soon this hallway would be filled as well. "Good points, I'm sure we are just freaking out a bit. After all so much has happened in just a few hours!" A nervous chuckle.
When AI was mentioned, he had to think. "She seems a little...I dunno...Perfect. I wasn't aware such smooth technology existed, she was very realistic...! Like...Ghost level...I dunno.....There's something I don't quite trust about her but I can't place it exactly" he frowned, he hated mistrusting people, even if they were AI's.

So he wasn't the only one with the concerns of that kind. His eyes turned towards the projector at the end of the hallway, a faint cringe taking him over for a second. "I wonder if she can 'hear' us when she's not present. This is why I do not like the prospect of such an advanced piece of technology being here with us... Imagine the things it could do. It can watch us at any time, it could spy on us. It's the first thing about this trip that made me truly uncomfortable, I have to admit. Perhaps I am being still stressed by all this new information and I'll get better as time passes."ยจ
His nervousness about the A.I was clear, and that in itself was already driving him up the wall. He shouldn't be so nervous about something so simple. It's got thoughts and it might feel, but it won't come out at night to kill you. It's not real, the projector can't hurt anybody. Take a deep breath. Eventually he turned his gaze back to Tottori, smiling with a nervous edge. "But enough about technology like that... We're no mechanics, so we won't understand how it works. What do you think about all these people here? Any first impressions?"

Yet another who didn't seem to comfortable with technology, he wasn't too surprised by this point. It seemed a few were a bit suspicious of how advanced Ai seemed to be, himself included, and for good reason. They were far too perfect, books in which robots and AI's had turned against people were famous and made him a little suspicious that something will eventually go wrong. "I'm...I'm sure if it's watching, it's just for our safety. I mean, it's not unusual to have CCTV, be on constant surveillance...Just...Try and this it's whoever controls Ai watching us over the programme itself...I find it a little reassuring at least. It's a lot to take in...So I'm sure that you'll learn to adjust to it...We all will, if not, it's only for a few days, right?"
He was concerned that something would go wrong, but felt it was best not to raise these issues with someone who was already suspicious of the thing. Glad the other changed the subject he smiled, looking up slightly at the LARPer. "I think...Everyone here seems interesting, unique, and certainly talented...It's funny, I wasn't aware half these talents existed, it's kinda daunting in a way. So many people here are famous, it's like standing with the stars...What about you? What do you think of everyone so far?"

"... What if nobody truly controls Ai? I am fairly sure she's fully functional to think on her own. An A.I without a controller is such a dangerous thing, I feel, yet these people, the ones who began this event... They are not afraid of her at all? Corruption takes controls of human minds and souls so easily, and they do not expect an A.I to face the same fate? A little bug or a glitch or whatever works for this situation and she could be turned into a megalomaniac, a mass murderer, someone who'd force us to stay and do god knows what." He shivered at the thought. His paranoia was getting to him too quickly.
He shivered visibly but moved on to the other topic they had. "Indeed, there are some talents here that I never thought I'd be mingling with, such as the Rodeo or the Prima Donna... The talents are strange, but what am I to say to such things?" He grinned almost childishly and released a chuckle. "Everyone does seem interesting, so. I am sure these conferences and discussions will become truly interesting to see and be a part of, no? I'll probably grow out of suspecting Ai as well, given some time."

"I thought we'd leave that behind us now...Alright? I mean, it's a perfectly fine programme...I'm sure if we read too much into it we'll just work ourselves up too much." He gave a nervous sigh, putting his hands in his pockets to fiddle with a coin in there, a small frown on his face as he thought about what the other had said. "It's only a few days, and if anything terrible happens we can probably run away from this place...There's things to drive away with right? Ah ha...We'd be fine" He was half convincing the other and half convincing himself at the same time. Man, this was not a great situation.
"But yeah, these discussions shall be great!" The frown formed into a small smile as he looked back up at the LARPer. "It'll be great, I assure you of that, all these different personalities in the same room...If anything it'll be interesting. Plus I look forward to actually learning about everyone here!"

"Alright, alright. I apologize. No more Ai talk, I swear on my honor!" He laughed and slammed his fist against his chest in a little salute of sorts. He could not get the potentially dangerous A.I out of his mind so easily, but in the end he had no reason to try and project his worries upon Tottori either. He seemed like a good man, someone he could talk to and possibly even trust upon later on during this conference. And a therapist could be of help with one of his... Problems. He'd bring it up with the other later on, surely.
"Yes, yes! Everyone seems to be interesting, and everyone here has the potential to truly change the world." He was not too sure on that last part, but he did not wish to ruin the mood by suspecting the helpfulness of others. The Rodeo could be helpful, but just not at the global stage, and some things like the Prima Donna or... Hell, even himself, seemed a bit useless for a large peace conference of some sort.
Eventually their discussion moved on to other things.
You feel a bit closer to Hitoshi.
(Ending the free time here if you do not mind, Monokuma's here soon!)
