[OPEN] a poor student in hell

[tadeadshi]

Who: Tadashi and You!
What: Another day on campus post-midterms
Where: The dorms, coffeeshop, the quad
When: Throughout the second half of March
Warnings: None



AUBE DORMS

[Around Aube dormitory, one might have easily missed the guy wandering around half-dead during the lead up to midterms. Tadashi made himself scarce to study and work on his projects. Now though? With it over? He's easily found in the common area with a book over his face asleep or ..still wandering around half-dead in a daze. Hey, guy's got a lot going on to study for. Make sure he doesn't take the last of the communal coffee. He may apologize if he bumps into you without looking.

If the music or talking is too loud next door to Room 404, he may come ask whoever it is to quiet down.]

CAFE DE LA LUNE

[The cafe is nice, well tended, and perfect for a grad student trying to focus. He's got his corner table, his laptop and notebooks, and half-empty mug of room temperature coffee forgotten while he works. Occasionally he'll stand and stretches his legs, take a little walk around the room before sitting back down and ordering a refill. Every now and then there's a frustrated grumbling from his corner, likely a script not working right, before he buckles down and gets back to it.]

QUAD

[You know what every STEM student needs? Some time outside. And Tadashi does like it. Out on the quad, sure he has his bag with all his work. But he's also got his water bottle and a soft rubber ball. Okay, sue him, he's tossing it between the ground and the side of the building and catching it. He's pretty focused on it for the time being. On a different day, he's sitting in the grass, book in hand reading. Does the guy ever stop?]

dorms

[ Noise, you say? Well there's a whole bunch of noise coming from right outside Tadashi's window. Some idiot has managed to crash right into it - not breaking anything, thankfully, but definitely connecting with a loud thud. ]

Ow. Oops.

[tadeadshi]

[PETER....

The noise comes through his headphones and he peeks up, deadeyed and sluggish to the world. But something's at his window and Tadashi gets up to look.]

...Unbelievable. Hold on-- Opening the window. [And just for Peter, he'll open it up, reaching to help him inside.] What are you doing out there?

[made_up_names]

[ He's completely unhurt at least. Though he appreciates the hand inside. ]

Testing out a new web fluid formula. It, uh. Needs work.

[tadeadshi]

You think so?

[Once he's in, Tadashi closes the window and sits back down watching him.] Not hurt, right?

[made_up_names]

Oh yeah, no problem. I'm pretty sturdy 'cause of the spider powers and stuff.

[ Also the being dead part which. Makes this less fun to brag about wow. ]

Dorms

[infestedcouncilpresident]

[It's nine in the morning, clearly a time for no reasonable person to be awake if you asked Kohaku. BUT the world was full of unreasonable people and she had class in an hour so here she was shambling like a zombie towards the communal coffee pot. And just sort of...mindlessly walking into Tadashi. Oh. There's someone else here.]

S'rry...

[There was only one cup's worth of coffee left in the pot, which might lead to a problem.]

[tadeadshi]

[Yeah usually. It's not something he's all that glad about either.]

Right. Forgot, we didn't get much time to catch up. Follow up question, what are you doing out there this late?

Re: Dorms

[tadeadshi]

[Haha.... Yeah he's been up all night, and he still has a lecture, and then he can sleep. The pot sloshes a little in his hand when Kohaku bumps into him and he stumbles a little.]

Sorry - didn't mean to just stand here.

[made_up_names]

Well right now I'm hiding from Bee because if he catches me out, I'm super grounded again.

[ He's just gonna shut this window behind him now. ]

[tadeadshi]

Probably smart. Smarter would be not doing this at night so you aren't sneaking out.

[Look he doesn't have Hiro anymore to scold, let him have this.]

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Mmf?

[Kohaku doesn't have that excuse, she's just not a morning person. She yawned hard enough for her jaw to pop.]

'sokay. Need coffee. Or energy drinks.

[made_up_names]

[ He's older than Hiro jeez. But just as smart and irresponsible. ]

I can't help it. Getting to sleep is really hard sometimes.

Dorms

[bikerbarbie]

*Don't mind the fact that your floor R.A. is sitting in the common room. Carving sigils into bullets. Everything is perfectly normal and nothing is wrong.*

Is this just overdoing it on studying or are you dying?

*She does care she just- is kinda rough and shows it by calling everyone a dumbass. Usually their fault.*

[tadeadshi]

Can't fault that.

[Well, he should kick Peter out to sneak back to his own dorm and get back to work. But Peter is also the only one here who knew him from before the fire. It's.. Nice having someone with that history.]

Probably worth asking, have you tried hot tea or milk?

[tadeadshi]

Oh.

[You mean this coffee? That he just poured the last of into his mug? Uh.]

..Energy drink may be better.

[tadeadshi]

[He doesn't move or get the book off his face, he just talks from underneath it.]

Maybe both? That's possible.

"miles"

[made_up_names]

[ Courtesy of his own history, Peter here probably missed the window where everyone found out Tadashi was dead. Since. Peter himself was also pretty goddamn dead. That's one way to completely not realize that an old friend supposedly died in a fire. ]

Don't big brother me. I can take care of myself.

PLEASE NO BULLY

[tadeadshi]

I know, I know. Just... hard not to.

[The only way he can big brother Hiro anymore is anonymously from France okay. And that's weird. So he doesn't. Often.]

You make it so easy to.

[made_up_names]

[ Mmmmaking a face. It's a very little brother sort of face. ]

Dude, you wouldn't recognize me if I were cautious and serious and stuff.

[tadeadshi]

You're absolutely right, I wouldn't.

And you wouldn't recognize me if I didn't big brother you sometimes, admit it.

[made_up_names]

That is basically your brand. You'd big brother a rock if it misbehaved enough.

[tadeadshi]

I somehow doubt a rock would care.

So. [Hey let's change the subject. This is... getting in his head a little.] You said the fluid formula needs work?

[made_up_names]

Oh. Yeah. I've fought some really strong monsters and it's been breaking a lot. I kinda want to work some magic into it, but I'm real bad at everything except runes, so I'm trying to do it with science instead.

[tadeadshi]

Probably smart.

[Well, he's got his note book and shit in his hands so he'll work while he's facing Peter instead of his desk. He can multitask.]

So it's just breaking? Something stronger... What have you tried with science so far?

[made_up_names]

[ Wow that's a can of worms all right. Peter just. Stops for a moment. ]

It's - um, I've been fighting undead monsters. Specifically.

[ And as for the science, he runs down some chemicals. ]
