Welcome to the Program

[airlockedmods]

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.]

[karappo]

Heh. You are absolutely right, Osomatsu!

[No.]

So that means you and I are the stars of this skit. And that also means we are going to just have to show them how well we can work together to make it work in our favor, non?

[titularly]

I wonder what kinda food they got in the cafeteria? Gourmet?

[Aaand he's ignoring Karamatsu. As it should be.]

[karappo]

Ah-

[Karamatsu clears his throat, trying to reenter the conversation.]

I already looked. It is astronaut food.

[titularly]

Astronaut food?

[Do you see the disappointment on his face, Karamatsu.]

So like... meat bars and crap?

[karappo]

[Karamatsu nods, rubbing his chin.]

Freeze-dried foods, MREs, powered things that reconstitute in water...things like that. Nothing fresh, that is for certain.

[titularly]

Ehhh?

[And the disappointment is further..]

Well, I guess it makes sense since we're doing Sci-fi now.

[...]

...do they have any space beer anywhere? I kinda wanna try some now.

[karappo]

I did not see any...but there is an espresso bar? I met a man, the Champion Barista, who made me a cup of coffee and it was actually quite good. Maybe we could go get you some?

[titularly]

Ehh.. coffee...?

[he's died inside]

Do they have alcohol flavoured coffee?

[karappo]

I am not sure...I hadn't actually looked at all the flavors, but I know there were many of them.

[Why is it always booze with you.]

[titularly]

[niisan needs a drink karamatsu hes in fucking space]

Well, I guess there'd be no harm in checking it out at least, yeah?

[karappo]

Not at all. Come, they are this way-!

[Karamatsu points ahead, past the others to the far side of the cafeteria.]

By the way, Brother...where were you this morning? Did you get up before me? Because I did not see you in our room.

[Ah.]

[titularly]

Oh, that's a good question!

[Osomatsu starts walking towards the cafeteria, his arms folded behind his head as he walks and contemplates that.]

I didn't see you anywhere either, but maybe I just missed you? I kind of did just get up and leave without looking around or anything.

[karappo]

Maybe...I slept through the initial announcement, so you must have woken up first.

[Very weird...you'd think Osomatsu would have just kept sleeping, forever.]

I sort of just got up and left also...but I did not realize I was not home at first, either.

[titularly]

Yeah, neither did I until I walked out and saw how weird the hallway was!

[After saying that, a big, cheeky grin spreads across Osomatsu's face.]

Did you see that our room is right next to the girl's shower? Akatsuka-sensei really must be watching us from above~

[karappo]

What? No it is not. We are right next to the men's shower. I did not even see a women's shower coming to the kitchen.

[Read: he was too busy looking at profiles to notice.]

[titularly]

Uh. I'm pretty sure I read "Women's" on the door?

[How can you miss a detail like that, Karamatsu? In fact, it has Osomatsu stop in place and he turns around, grabbing his brother's wrist.]

Here, I'll go show you! You probably just read it wrong!

[karappo]

O-oh, okay...

[Karamatsu isn't sure how they both could have seen two totally different things, but...to the bathroom, he guesses!]
