Wanna Guess? (Part One)
Mirror Chamber
 |
Aw, lookit all our little ducklings, all lined up and ready to swim! They’re out in full force. |
 |
Obviously. This is orientation, Cater. Some are babbling nigh-incoherently, while others look like deer caught in the carriage lights. So innocent. So painfully awkward. |
|
Were you that adorbs two years ago too? |
|
My memory doesn’t stretch back to ancient history. |
|
I’m sure I’ve got a pic of you from back then. Lemme dig it up! |
|
Please don’t. |
|
Heh. Aaanyway, I can think of at least one person who never had an ounce of innocence, even on his first day here. |
??? |
You there, freshmen. Yes, you three, at the back of the fourth column from the right! |
 |
Are you unable to shut your mouths even in the midst of a ceremony? The next time I catch you chatting, it will be off with your heads. You would do well to remember that. |
|
*whistle* Riddle is in fine form today. The shivers are running down my spine already. |
|
This is his first orientation as housewarden, after all. He’s probably on edge. |
|
Except he’s ALWAYS on edge. |
|
Anyway, the dorm assignments are about to begin. |
|
Finally! This is the best part! |
|
I wonder who will be joining us this year? Hopefully some calm and sensible kids. |
|
Nah. We need some upbeat dudes who know how to have fun. I’m not the mood to teach anyone how to read a room, though. That would be SO cringe. Ooh, I know a fun game we can play! Wanna guess who’ll make it into Heartslabyul? The loser has to babysit the freshies at the welcome party after this. |
|
For the record, whenever you propose some dumb bet like this, you’re always the one who loses it. |
|
Hey, if I’m good at anything, it’s judging people’s character. |
|
Whatever. Either way, we’re stuck here watching them get their assignments. I’m in. |
|
Alrighty! Announcing the start of the Two Million and First Heartslabyul Freshie Guessing Game! And heeere’s our first contestant. Will he end up in Heartslabyul, or does the capricius hand of fate have something else in store? |
 |
... |
|
Whoa, he’s got a nasty look about ‘im! I vote no. There’s no way he’d be able to rock our dorm uniform. |
|
I vote no as well. Based on past assignments, most beastmen end up being assigned to Savanaclaw. |
 The Dark Mirror |
The nature of your soul is... Savanaclaw! |
|
And there it is. After going through two orientations already, it gets easy to predict what the mirror’ll say. Our second contestant steps up to the plate. Will he be joining us in Heartslabyul? Oh, the drama ! Oh, the SUSPENSE! |
 |
... |
|
I say yes! Yes, yes, yes! |
|
On what grounds? |
|
Because he’s as cute as a button! And he looks like the kinda guy who wouldn’t leave his dirty dishes all over the place. |
|
Are you sure you don’t just want him to clean up YOUR dirty dishes? |
|
I’ve been better about that lately! |
|
I vote that he isn’t placed in our dorm. |
|
Hey, don’t ignore me! |
|
Now for contestant number five! |
|
And contestant number ten is... |
|
We’re done with orientation and dorm assignments? All right, new students—let me be clear. At Heartslabyul House, I am the law. Break the rules, and it’s off with your head! |
|
And that concludes our Heartslabyul Freshie Guessing Game! Now, who came out on top? |
|
Sorry, Cater. It’s five to four. I win. Have fun babysitting the freshmen. That brown-haired guy seems like he’s got energy to spare. |
|
Awww, boooo! I lost. And the purple-haired freshie ended up in Pomefiore, too. Saaad. |
Wanna Guess? (Part Two)
Heartslabyul Dorm
|
All right, gents, listen up! You’ve been inducted into the one and only Heartslabyul. And it’s my pleasure to announce that we’ve got a little shindig planned to welcome you into the fold! Get hyped! |
 |
You a freshman too? Hey, what d’you think happened to that monster that went wild during orientation? |
 |
I have no idea. |
|
Wanna sneak out and take a peep at the headmage’s office? |
|
Heya, Spikey. You look like you’re having fun. |
|
Whoa! Where’d you come from? |
|
FYI, if you skip out on the welcome party, Riddle’ll have your head. |
|
Oh, I wouldn’t dream of it! Who would want to skip out on your amazing party? We’re so grateful that you put it together for us. Right? |
|
Uh, yes! Yes, of course. |
|
Okay then, switching gears... You all have a teacup, yeah? And you’ve got actual tea in it? Not a dormouse, right? Cool beans. Then let’s raise a toast to the day that’s furthest from graduation! Yeaaah! |
|
Nicely done. You wrangled all those excitable freshmen without missing a beat. |
|
Hey, I’m a party boy at heart. Stuff like this comes naturally to me. |
|
Really? Because you caused no end of trouble while we were trying to plan this. |
|
That’s just ‘cause you’re an awful taskmaster! Making me decorate the entire yard AND babysit the freshies... |
|
The babysitting part is your own fault. |
|
Throw me a bone here! |
|
Sorry, but I have to go serve the mincemeat pie. I made sure to time it such that it’ll be hot out of the oven when it hits the table. |
|
I dunno if you’re an amazing cook or just waaay too devoted to Riddle. |
|
Ha ha... Call it whatever you want. |
|
Well, I’m done here, so now it’s time for me to enjoy the fruits of my labor. Peace! |
|
Right. See you later. |
|
Guess I may as well snap a pic for Magicam. But before that... Woo, the mincemeat pie is served, and it is looking hashtag #YUM! Get to carb-loading, boys! Aha ha, all the freshmen are flocking around Trey. It’s like something straight out of a zombie flick. Gotta get a pic of this, too. |
|
That does it for the welcome party! Guess I’ll upload everything to Magicam before I head back to my room. #CayToday #orientation #jaw-droppingjuniors #SRNightRavenCeremonialUni #NRC Gotta give ‘em a little razzle-dazzle, aaand...up they go! Nice! Already getting some “likes”. Guess these robes really were the way to go. Oh, I’ve been getting a lot of comments from that follower recently. I better “like” ‘em back. |
|
Phew... I’m beat. Orientation is so boring. ...JK. It may’ve been exhausting, but at least I got some fire selfies. And I got a ton of usies with the freshies, so I should have some good material for a while. |
|
Better get back and hit the showers. Huh. I don’t see Trey. Musta gone ahead of me. |
