003 - Gathering

[kokuyoyo]

Who: Any and all Awakened characters
What: An invitation for a meeting of the Awakened in anticipation of the newest countdown.
When: June 23/24, especially during the latest applenet post
Where: Chikusa's school apartment at Green Valley
Other: Consider this a mingle log for all Awakened characters to talk freely about the newest batch on the app, the new countdown, and when they get their sweet new duds again!


Ciro Bonavida's apartment is rather easy to find. Not only are the instructions left at the pawnshop written in a neat and clear hand, but the school apartments have a directory of their own, of course. While some of the older members of the group might normally draw a raised eyebrow, well... It's Solstice. The apartments aren't as filled as they normally might be in some areas with their occupants out partying, and the parties that are happening inside draw all sorts. No one, in this particular instance, will look twice.

As a bonus to make sure there's no doubt at all, the door on Ciro's apartment has a small paper sign taped to the front. My roommate is OUT! Around it, small happy sheep are drawn. Apparently he's taken inspiration from someone...

Any one of the Awakened who come over can do so as early as they like and stay to the following morning, if they want- Chikusa is fairly certain that Ciro's roommate is going to stay out for a good long while and isn't worried. Still, for anyone staying overnight (a necessity if they want to stay up for the app post to come up), he'd rather it if you went to crash at one of the many parties going on in the apartment buildings... He doesn't have room for everyone, you know, especially since none of you jerks are coming into his bedroom if he has any say about it.

As a bonus, every Awakened is treated to hot chocolate, tea, coffee, or iced tea in one of Ciro's many... many... mugs. Enjoy.

"That's the problem...." Reaching up, he fiddles with his glasses until they're right back in place, although it's not as if they'd moved much beforehand anyway. "If we write anything down, then we run the risk of an enemy finding it in a worst case scenario. On the other hand, if we try to spread it through each other.... We still all have the risk of one another breaking and 'falling alseep' again." A quiet but annoyed sigh.

"If we had a headquarters of some sort that wasn't here... We could try to organize things around there, and leave some sort of hint to the code."

It was a major problem and not one that Jaune had an immediate answer for. "Maybe we can do some research into how codes have been spread around in the past. There's gotta be books on secret societies and things like that," Jaune said, thinking more of John's specialty than his own. John was very much into history and literature, so the idea of secret societies having codes wasn't a foreign one. Still, neither John nor Jaune had had to do something like this before which left him kind of in the dark.

"Maybe it can be one of those 'hiding in plain sight' kind of codes."

"Obvious to those who know what to look for, but that can be passed off as mundane to those who don't..." Chikusa lets his head fall to the side thoughtfully, thinking over it. It's a sensible idea. All that's let is to figure out how to implement it.

"...We can figure it out. Until then, I'll get to work on the code."

Jaune looks thoughtful, processing what Chikusa was suggesting. "Well...I'm not usually good at stuff like that, but if I can think of anything to contribute I'll let you know."

He wants to be useful if possible--more so than just on the battle field.

"You know where to find me..." Now that he's done, however, he starts to shift away. "I'm getting more hot chocolate..." He needs the sweet to get over what a mess this whole thing is becoming.
