Welcome to the Program
Good Morning, Champions. In the interest of maintaining healthy sleep patterns, a day/night cycle is in effect. Your presence is expected in the cafeteria in exactly one hour.
[The voice comes through not a large speaker, but through the device that's attached to each Champion's arm. Further investigation of the features of the device will reveal a list of profiles, a mini-map, and a list of rules. The hallways are shiny white and silver, with running lights along the floor and lights on the ceiling, and at the junction of the hallways is a sign with a knife and fork icon and an arrow pointing down the hall.
Welcome to the Excellence Program, Champions. Time to get to know your teammates.]

... Complicated might be a better word?
[Zombiefied would be another, but that's not exactly something you blurt out casually to strangers.]
I don't have a problem with school itself though, if that's what you mean.
no subject
[He's pretty adamant on not necessarily wanting to hear it, even though he still sounds plenty friendly.]
Want me to make you something different to drink? You don't look too impressed with what you've got there.
no subject
[Megurigaoka, and everything that happened there in the school and out of it, isn't for the others to know. Those are scars she shares with the School-Living club members, and Kei, and no one else.
But then she looks a little bit sheepish.]
A-ah... if you don't mind? I've never used anything other than [please don't judge her coffee man] the instant kind.
no subject
Well, then I'm afraid I might just have to spoil you a little. What's your favorite flavor? And do you like, or can you drink milk?
no subject
[Oh. Sure sounds like she's getting the fancy coffee.]
Milk is fine, thank you.
no subject
[He goes over to the espresso machine and hmms thoughtfully over the syrups for a minute, before deciding on chocolate and a hint of creme de menthe. Then the speed with which he steams the milk and pulls the espresso shots is that of years of practice, and finally he tops it off with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate powder.]
Voila!
no subject
Oh. Yeah, that definitely looks like a far more professional cup of coffee.]
Thank you! [Is that a smile? Yup, that's a smile.] You made that look so easy...
[It's probably a good thing you didn't stop her attempts at working the machine earlier, Bolton. It would've been embarrassing for everyone involved.]
no subject
Go ahead, try it. See how I did.
no subject
It's lovely. Much better than anything I'd be able to make, probably even after 15 years.
no subject
[He smiles.]
Glad you like it, though.
no subject
... [She closes her eyes and takes another sip.] Yes. It's... delicious.
[And so warm, and different to eating cans of preserved food or hard tack or instant noodles and drinking instant coffee granules. It's luxurious.]
