Welcome.

You wake with the unshakable feeling that you shouldn't be here. Perhaps you were in the middle of something, perhaps you weren't. Either way, you're waking up in an unfamiliar location with no recollection of how you got here. The room you've woken up in is sparsely-decorated, though that might be difficult to tell at first given how nice the beds are...but eventually you'll notice a few things that are a little...off. Maybe the scent is striking you wrong - it's clean, but it's not yours. Maybe your bed back home doesn't support your back in quite this way. Maybe you should be seeing sunlight through your window by now. Maybe you should have a window in the first place. This isn't right, but leaving the room won't give you any more answers. You might want to grab the silver key sitting on your trunk on the way out. Don't worry though, you aren't all alone here. Once you step outside your room into the hallway, you'll notice that a few others are emerging from their rooms as well. It looks like they're just as confused and concerned as you are. Feel free to talk to them, but none of you know how exactly you wound up here and maybe some useful information can be found by exploring. If you follow the hallway to its end (and it's a very long hallway), you'll eventually arrive in the foyer. You'll find some very interesting information about yourselves on the wall near the clock. Perhaps even more importantly, if you look on the other side of the multi-pendulumed thing, you'll find other framed information that you might want to pay attention to. It could very well be the key to escaping this strange place, after all. Don't worry if you forget the rules, you can find them in every room of the building. Of course, search as you might, you won't find a doorway or a window of any sort. Getting out won't be so easy, it seems. But who knows? Perhaps your fellow captives have something to say about all of this. Welcome to Chronos University.

Omelette, huh? [ She's never had one in her life, but it looks pretty hearty. ] I'll take your word for it!

[foundfate]

[Yuuup, it's full of egg and meaty goodness. Also, despite how quickly he's preparing it, it's very clear that he has some skill in the kitchen. Despite working with sharp knives and hot pans, he doesn't even come close to hurting himself.]

It's perfect for breakfast too, it'll give you plenty of energy for the rest of the day. I'm sure we're going to need it to figure out what's going on.

[ She's interested, for sure! Vanille watches carefully, memorizing what he's doing. ]

Can you put veggies in there?

[foundfate]

Yeah, you can. Root vegetables work particularly well, actually. Did you want some?

[ravagers]

Definitely! Everything's better with 'em. [ She looks around, then pulls out some potatoes and onions. ] I think these for now.

[foundfate]

[Potatoes would not be his first choice for an omelette, but he can make that work.]

Alright, I'll saute these and add it to the mix.

[Chop chop chop cook cook cook hum de dum~

And then, it's done. An omelette with beef, potatoes, and onions inside. And ketchup on top, because Japan.]

Here you go!

[ Red stuff... Vanille at least grabs a fork before digging in, but she tries the stuff on top first. Her eyes light up, and she looks at Watanuki. ]

What's this stuff? It's yummy!

[foundfate]

The ketchup? It's, er, ketchup. Tomatoes mixed with vinegar and made into a liquid.

[ravagers]

Huh! Never had that before. Usually if we prepare tomatoes they're just dried or cooked over a fire.

[foundfate]

That's one way to prepare them, but this is more of a condiment than a food. You know, to make food taste better?

[ravagers]

Oh, like salt!
