Who: Corvus, Lynx, anyone else
Where: Outside the Corvus dorm, in the common area
When: Day 150, late afternoon
What: Intro post

[Speaking of skinny boy(?)s wandering around outside the Corvus/Lynx area -- a fairly tall and unhealthily-thin young man has exited the Corvus dorms and is looking around in some confusion. He looks very pale -- especially in brilliantly-coloured Corvus uniform -- and not very healthy. Visible on his bare neck is a long scar along his neck, as if cut with a knife some years ago, and his bare hands are covered in strange black smoky patches.

He looks quite lost, and more wary to see others than relieved]

...Good evening...?

	Your team should have rations or gathered food you can have. You've gotta depend on them for food when you can. It's risky for teams who aren't partners to share with each other. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Against the rules. The black team enforces them, and most just use tazers, but there's some that are a lot worse than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

There's nowhere they're written down. I know all of them though.

[starting to count off on his fingers] No punching the walls. No sharing too much unless it's with your partners. No sleeping over with a team other than your partners. Don't sacrifice yourself in games. Don't go to the pillar without a member of the black team. And don't . . .

. . . Ask your team about the last one. Your leader will probably just get pissed if I try telling you that much. —And ask someone else about the pillar. I don't want to talk about it more than that.

There's fourteen normal teams. Yours and your partner's are the newest, so I don't know much about them yet. I don't know who Lynx's leader is either, or if they have one.

My partner team is Vulpecula, orange. Their leader is Lucky. She's blond and energetic, impossible to miss if you see her. They're a good, dependable team if you can get off to a good start with them.

Then there's Pyxis and Cygnus, red and pink. Pyxis is a real . . . they're a team that can be pretty rough in the games. And they like fighting things out. They . . . aren't bad though. I got a sister there. Ikki's their leader. The guy with black hair. Cygnus . . . doesn't have a leader right now. They're a pretty quiet team lately too. Not bad though . . .

Cepheus and Orion, yellow and a purple darker than yours. Cepheus is a great team. They seem to get along with everyone, and a lot of their guys are really good in the games. Their leader's Red, the guy with red hair and an eyepatch. Orion's . . . not bad either. Their leader's a great guy, and they got two kids that seem okay . . . Don't know the rest too well though. The older guy with blue eyes there is their leader. Jim.

Pavo and Delphinus, light blue and a purple lighter than yours. They're both pretty good teams. Pavo's the more peaceful one, and they're good at making soap if you like that kinda shit. Their leader's one of the only people here who can work with metal and knows where to find it too—Cepheus is the other team who can manage that. Her name's Feathers, and she's the girl with pink messy hair. Delphinus . . . I guess their leader is Link, the guy with long blond hair. They're a kinda serious team, and you should keep an eye out for the smiling freak, but they're pretty good guys in general.

[He's been pretty calm and even with his descriptions up to now, but his face darkens briefly while he talks about Lepus, evening out again as he continues on to Monoceros] Then there's . . . Lepus and Monoceros. Brown and white. Lepus has some fucking dangerous guys, so it's safer to stay away. The white-haired midget and girl with bandages are the worst, but you can deal with the rest if you really have to. I don't know if they have a leader or not. Monoceros is pretty forgettable. I think they're led by the guy with the demon tail? Almaz or something . . . They're another peaceful team from what I remember.

[. . . and in contrast, he brightens considerably talking about Lacerta and closes off abruptly when mentioning Canis] The last two are Lacerta and Canis. Dark green and dark blue. Lacerta's . . . really great. All of them are really good people. They've got a healing stone that they'll help people out with whenever they're able to, but it's been limited by the Judges recently. —And they're the only team that knows where the salt is. You can do pretty fair trading with them to get some of it. They're one of the teams that doesn't really have a leader, but Aeris and Allen are always good to talk to if you want to make sure a message gets to the whole team. Aeris usually has a staff with her and she's the oldest girl on the team, and Allen's got a star shaped scar on his face. You can't miss him. Canis's leader is Jace. You'll know him by the lines on his face.

	[watching Gokudera's mouth intensely as he talks, unblinkingly focused on it. When it's clear Dera isn't going to say anything else, he blinks a few times as if to refocus them] [nods after a long moment, clearly mulling this over] You didn't say much about Canis.

	You gotta ask someone else if you want to know about that team. I can't say much anymore. . . . Try Delphinus. Ask for Shiki or Zero. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[brief nod, eyes fixed on his mouth again] Okay. Thank you. It sounds like each of the teams has a... place? Set position? ...understanding with the others. Except the new ones. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
