"Oh... Oh nanny, of course I'll unstrap your bra for you... Oh, what bountiful tracts of land you have... I could just-AAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

Gordon "Gord" Phillip Althorp-Smith's alarm went off blaring, unfortunately for him extremely close to his head. He woke up with a terrified expression on his well structured face, which slowly took on a scowl as he slammed the alarm off. The display on it boldy declared that the time was 7:00 AM. About an hour to get dressed, and maybe play a round of cards with the chaps!, he thought to himself as he climbed out of his bed.

Gordon swiftly walked over to his dresser, and pulled out his attire for the day; a white, long sleeved polo shirt, a striking blue and green patterned sleeveless jumper, slate colored dress pants, and brown, expensive loafers. He quickly put these on and looked at himself in the small mirror above his dresser, a smirk on his face.

"Oh Gordon, you look fantastic as ever! All the women shall be fawning over you!"

Gordon looked over to the bed of his room mate, who was likely still fast asleep. He grimaced a bit. Pauper, he thought as he opened up the top drawer of his dresser and pulled out a stick of mint chewing gum. He quickly unwrapped it and put it in his mouth, chewing down on it loudly and obnoxiously, as if trying to say "look at me! I'm rich and I can afford gum, so weep and despair, paupers!". He grinned at his silly little thought, before stepping out of his dorm room.

Room number 2 of the boy's dorm was located on the first floor of the dorm, along with rooms 1, 3, 4, and 5. Gordon looked around, seeing the other dorm rooms, before walking towards the recreation room, which was a large room directly across from the entrance to the dorm. A wide, green couch sat across from a flat screen TV, with bookshelves flanking either side of it. Two computers were set up at the far left of the room, against the wall, behind the pool table. On the far right of the room sat a couple of chess tables and a small, round table, who's top was adorned with various poker cards.

Gordon glanced at the clock on the wall, directly above the TV. 7:28 AM, it stated. With a smirk, Gordon swiftly plopped himself down on the couch and rested his head against the arm, spreading his body across the entire length of the couch. He sighed happily, resting his hands in his lap.

[Charlia]

Charlotte awoke from her usual nightmares with a barely-stifled scream, feeling irritated at herself. She crawled out of bed and dressed quickly, nothing fancy, just a white shirt with a navy blue skirt, white socks, and black shoes. Her red hair wasn't too difficult to take care of that day, which was a blessing. She checked the clock--7:30. Still half an hour before breakfast, and enough time to get in a few more paragraphs for her novel... it was time for the murderer to strike again... Gideon, this time. Yes, she would enjoy killing him off. She pulled out her writing tools and got to work.

[Plzen]

Jan Pavel Syrovy woke up at 7:30 sharp without an alarm, as usual. He was sweating himself half to death, also as usual, in this very chilly dormitory room.

"Oh, for goodness' sake..."

It must have been the nightmares again. He could remember none, of course. Thank goodness. The days when he could remember, and there were more than a few of them, never started off well.

In any case, the mess had to be dealt with, or his bed would stink up by that night.

Jan Pavel dragged his sheets to the bathroom and gave them a wash. Then he himself took a shower before putting on attire, complete with his very distinctive tan overcoat, more formal than his pajamas. He was a man - a boy, anyways - of almost no features. If Jan Pavel dressed in typical boys' attire, he'd never be remembered by anyone.

So, the tan overcoat it was.

Leaving the drying sheets and pajamas on the radiator, Jan Pavel noticed his roommate still sleeping. He muttered a rude remark before he left the room.

"When does that [obsenities redacted] lazy [obscenities redacted] plan to get up?"

The first thing Jan Pavel noticed as he entered the common room was Gordon's aristocratic eyes staring at him. A very condensating sort of gesture, he realized, not a surprised or curious one, as stares usually are.

The rude bastard...

Jan Pavel was still able to put up his best smile. He was very good at that, after years of practice. His voice, when he spoke, bore no trace of the burning irritation so typical of his morning hours.

"Ah... Let's see... Gordon, was it? Good morning," he said, nodding at the roughly-featured boy.

[Barboneia]

Gordon's eyes narrowed as he stared at Jan. He began to chew on the piece of gum much more violently, gnashing his teeth together like a vicious beast tearing through the flesh of its prey. He slowly blew a large, green bubble, before allowing it to pop, giving off a slightly minty odor. He sucked the gum back into his mouth and pushed it to the roof of his mouth so he could speak.

"Greetings, forced peer of mine. I do so hope for your sake that you slept well."

[Togeria]

Cassie woke with sheer dread. ""Why do we have to have physical education?" She said before getting out of bed. Stretching she looked over at her roommate,"Another day, another day I guess." She whispered to herself. going to her dresser she went to get a fresh red shirt, a pair of jeans, some undergarments, and some socks to go along. After going to the bathroom and changing, she came out stretching, a smile on her face as she looked around. Putting on her shoes she looked at the clock,"Good 7:40." She said, stepping out the dorm and heading to the recreation room. She looked at it,"Bare as bones." Was all she said before taking a seat on the couch. Still quite tired herself she rested her head on the arm of the couch, hoping to get a few more minutes of sleep.

[Plzen]

-snip-

Jan Pavel's irritation grew.

Well, he figured, there's no need to discuss my... sleeping problem. Definitely not with this rude bastard.

"Indeed," he said, "I have slept soundly last night, although the mountain air is colder than I expected. I trust your sleep has been similarly pleasant."

Jan Pavel did not bother waiting for a response. Saying something snappy and infuriating, he imagined.

Instead, he let his thoughts drift... the common room had so many trinkets, they could not possibly be all scrutinized. Jan Pavel tried, anyways, still keeping up the semblance of listening.

[Ava Ire]

While her roommate slept soundly, Isabella Penelope Grant was already wide awake. Bed unorderly and her pajamas strewn about on the rumpled sheets, Isabella had devoted the majority of her morning to one thing: her precious hair. The teenage girl had awoken at 5:30 AM, before any of the students, to take a shower. She remained in the bathroom for nearly an hour to comb, brush and prepare her glorious long, silky, shimmering black hair. Isabella grinned at the sight of her sleek, raven locks. She grinned, adorning a pink headband upon her head.

"Another day, another day..." Isabella had barely slept the night before. She was too anxious about what the day ahead would hold in store. She plopped down into her bed and turned on the tableside lamp. Already in uniform and hair fully prepared for the day, she whipped out her iPhone from under the pillows. It was only 7:48 AM. "Eh....like, ten minutes..." Isabella grabbed her headphones and plugged them in. She still had some time left to kill before breakfast. She probably wouldn't eat anyways. Isabella was, of course, far too anxious.

[Elejamie]

Meanwhile, in room 5, Peter was trying to get some sleep, despite his alarm blaring. He half-heartedly raised a hand and slammed it down on the alarm, although he didn't slam it down so hard to awaken his room-mate. He warily opened one eye and gazed at the alarm clock. The time read 7:04. "Sacrefice," He muttered, not wanting to wake his roomie up. Despite living in the USA since he was two years old, he still had a strong Ontarian accent, to the point where people think he's a foreign exchange student. "That time already? Alright, time to go." He then threw off his bed covers, got up, grabbed his razor and towel and went off to make himself presentable.

About half an hour later, he was fully dressed in his usual outfit: A black field jacket, which he keeps unbuttoned; a plain white t-shirt; a pair of black jeans, a pair of black socks with grey around the heels and toes; and a pair of size 10 (US) black Converse One Star sneakers. He then made his way out of the room and to the rec room. When he got there, he had a long look at everyone there. Without saying a word or even making eye contact with anyone, he walked over to the couch. He then curled up onto the couch - his back facing the television - and went back to sleep, not wanting to be disturbed.

[Barboneia]

"Oh, I assure you that my sleep was incredibly pleasant! Especially under my, oh, five-hundred thread count bedsheet. And I had a quite fantastic, yet very naughty, dream involving me and my aunt- I mean, my nanny. I don't think it'd be a good idea for me to describe it, however, as I'm sure you'd be quite prude about it."

Gordon's eyes settled from Jan, to Peter, who had entered the room. In Gordon's eyes, Peter looked like your standard low-IQ, oversized pituitary-glanded sports nut. A football hooligan, perhaps. He raised an eyebrow as he saw Peter curl up into a ball on the couch and go to sleep.

Gordon sat up on the couch and observed Peter curiously. He slowly grinned.

"How amusing!"

[Plzen]

Jan Pavel regarded the new arrival with some degree of shock. Peter, his name was.

Well, he thought, nice to see you too, you [expletives deleted]. I see you've been tought such good manners.

What he thought was what he thought. What he said, though...

"I can imagine, Gordon. Let me assure you that I am not as much a prude as one may imagine," Jan Pavel replied, with a slight smirk.

Silence once again reigned.

"It is already nearing seven-fifty, is it not? I dare say the rest of us might have to be shaken awake if they expect to be punctually present at breakfast," he noted with a chuckle.

If anyone laughed, he didn't hear it.

Quietly furious inside, Jan Pavel took out a little notepad from the right inner pocket of his overcoat. There he began jotting down detailed observations for every object in the room. Well, he started to, anyways. Finishing that by breakfast was a hopeless task.

Breakfast... Breakfast might make it all okay. Perhaps. He always felt better after a nice solid meal.

Heck, he thought, after a nice meal, Gordon might even seem like a nice person!

He had to admit, of course, that was pretty unlikely.

[Kwadai]

Ezri Kuznetsov
Ezri rolled onto his back from his side after being woken by his alarm. He sat up and looked around his dorm, which was really quite simple. The day before he had met his roommate...it was then he realised how glad the dorms were home to more students. His roommate was a boy called Gordon. Thankfully, Gordon had already woken up and left the room.
Ezri doubted he would have been able to stand waking up to that pretentious stuck up human. Pulling the blanket off him, Ezri slid out of the bed standing up. luckily he wasn't all that tired. He was exceedingly attractive with his lightly tanned skin which was smooth and without blemishes. In addition to this he had soft dark brown hair with similarly coloured eyes. He definetly took his appearance from his Israeli mother's side.
Now he was ready to get dressed for the upcoming day. Ezri chose a pair of black skinny jeans, a light grey sweatshirt and a black and white scarf folded neatly around his neck along with maroon coloured Vans shoes.
Once he had dressed for the day Ezri left his room to see who else was awake and in the recreation room. There were some attractive guys in the school, unfortunately for Ezri he was not yet out and secondly he did not know if any of the other guys were gay. He entered the room and immediately was greeted by the sight of Gordon and a few others.

Maya Kuznetsov
Maya awoke to the sound of her alarm in the girls dorm. Her roommate, Isabella was already awake. Unlike Ezri, Maya had a very pleasant roommate which definitely would make things easier for her. "Good morning", she greeted Isabella a little sleepily as she was still in the process of fully waking up. Pulling herself up into a sitting position, Maya brushed her hair out of her eyes.

[Armeia]

Sammy woke up in his room by himself, and got dressed after showering, putting on a shirt that said Skilled in Every Position, with the Nike swoosh bellow it. His room was mostly empty from him just getting here, but one wall had a AIK jersey hung in a frame, the jersey he'd worn during his brief stint with AIK in Sweden. He walked out to see where the others were, wondering if these students matched his standard for... Swaginess.

[Plzen]

Finally!

Jan Pavel rejoiced. A break to the gloomy silence!

Jan Pavel put the notepad and his pen back in the pocket of the overcoat. After the sixth chess table on the bookshelf, he was quite done with writing descriptions.

He stood up and greeted the newcomer. This chap seems polite enough, he thought, even though he didn't know much about the newcomer yet.

"Well, well, if it isn't Kuznetsov," Jan Pavel said with a grin, "your name is impossible to forget, my friend. I trust you have slept soundly?"

There was something about Ezri Kuznetsov, though, that kept Jan Pavel nervous. He soon shook the feeling off. If I could also shake off the damned nightmares!

It was around then that another student went in. As Jan Pavel was still waiting for Kuznetsov's reply, he only gave the newcomer a courteous nod.

To his shock, he realized that a courteous mod was more than anybody else in the room was greeting the second newcomer, whose name he couldn't remember, with.

What is wrong with the students of this school?

[The Serbian Empire]

Olivia was awake well before most of the others waking up at 6 am and put on her clothing. First, a fresh pair of panties and her bra followed by her black tights, a white blouse, and a gray skirt. Then she put on her teal flats as a campus like this is no place for high heels. She knew Cassie was still asleep when the petite Fire Emblem playing Olivia had exited the dorm room at 6:43 am. For the first time since Olivia beat all the Frontier Brains in Pokémon Platinum, she felt proud of herself. Her wavy brown hair being as soft as satin and her eyes glistened with the excitement of displaying her intellect and hard working ways. At the same time, Olivia feared what was after history class... Physical Education as it meant showing her petite frame which other girls might envy while showing her self-proclaimed small breasts to others. In reality, they are well suited for her frame. Olivia sat in the rec room until 7:30 and decided that being first in the cafeteria line was most important as she felt hungry enough to eat a pegasus just like Stahl in Fire Emblem Awakening would say he could eat.

"Good morning", she greeted Isabella a little sleepily as she was still in the process of fully waking up. Pulling herself up into a sitting position, Maya brushed her hair out of her eyes.

Isabella looked up from her phone. Her roommate, Maya, had just awoken. Isabella nodded to her.
"Morning," she replied. Isabella put her music on pause. It was 7:54 AM already. She took off her headphones, placed them onto the bed, and got up. She looked at her roommate.

"It's almost breakfast time, you know..."

[Armeia]

Sammy noticed Jan nodding at him and approached him. "Hey," he said. "I'm Sammy, but most people call me Swag."

He extended a muscular hand for a handshake, running his other hand through his hair. Where's the other athletes at this school? he thought. This boy seems nice but he's no footballer! I wonder if anyone speaks Swedish here, also.

[Togeria]

Olivia was awake well before most of the others waking up at 6 am and put on her clothing. First, a fresh pair of panties and her bra followed by her black tights, a white blouse, and a gray skirt.

Cassie smiled hearing someone come in, and breaking the awful silence. "Good morning." She said, sitting up she waved to Olivia before returning to her own thoughts. "This school might not be half bad, except for physical ed." She whispered to herself.

[Kwadai]

Ezri
"Good morning. Jan isn't it? Believe me I slept soundly, I had no choice, if I woke up I would have to see that stuck up human", Ezri responded nodding in the direction of Gordon. "How about you? I hope the same held true for you", he added glad to meet a sociable student. Just as the two began conversing a new male entered the room. Some who...had a rather different air about them.

Maya
"I know yeah..I dress quickly anyway!", she replied beginning to change into her day time attire. Skinny jeans and a nice dark green coloured blouse. "I hope the breakfast will be good this morning", she said brightly.

[Talvezout]

Sofia woke up from a rather dreamless sleep, alone in her dorm. It was rather simply, if not tastefully decorated; she freaked out a bit wondering where she was until she remembered: "Oh yeah. School..." She got up, took her time to brush (or at least try to comb out) her rather messy hair, and checked the clock.

7:20.

"I've still got time, don't worry yourself girl..." She mused before opening a book and reading it.

When the time came, she dressed herself and headed out for the rec room.

[Plzen]

"Ah... Gordon," Jan replied, "he is quite a character, isn't he? Seems alright enough. Just slightly egocentric is all."

Seems alright enough... Now that was one bloody lie. But... Jan Pavel remembered his parent's lessons. Jan Pavel Syrovy, he thought to himself, don't go around speaking ill of people.

-snip-

Jan Pavel shook the boy's - no, Sammy's - hand.

"Nice to meet you, Sammy," Jan Pavel replied in his brisk voice, "My name is Syrovy. Jan Pavel Syrovy. Call me 'Jan Pavel,' or, if you prefer, 'J.P.' I trust you are satisfied with me calling you 'Sammy?'"

Well, thought Jan Pavel, at least there was someone who knew how to introduce himself.

Frankly, after the very many uncivilized boys he saw yesterday and today, this little fact was almost enough to cheer him up.

[Ava Ire]

Ezri
"Good morning. Jan isn't it? Believe me I slept soundly, I had no choice, if I woke up I would have to see that stuck up human", Ezri responded nodding in the direction of Gordon. "How about you? I hope the same held true for you", he added glad to meet a sociable student. Just as the two began conversing a new male entered the room. Some who...had a rather different air about them.

Maya
"I know yeah..I dress quickly anyway!", she replied beginning to change into her day time attire. Skinny jeans and a nice dark green coloured blouse. "I hope the breakfast will be good this morning", she said brightly.

Isabella wore a white blouse, a black skirt, with long socks and Mary Jane shoes. The only color in her attire was the pink headband atop her head. Isabella headed towards the door.

"Eh, I'm not gonna eat anything," she said with a bored tone. "I'm not really hungry..." Isabella opened the door, stuffing her phone into the beige purse slung across her shoulder. "But I guess I'll just go anyways...." She looked back to Maya. "You coming?"

[The Serbian Empire]

"Good morning, Cassie!" Or at least I think that's Cassie's voice. Olivia's playing of Fire Emblem was a distraction. "For all I know I left the rec room later than I thought I did. Maybe it was 7:45 am after all and I was enthralled with the physique of Cordelia and Lon'qu dreaming of what Severa would look like," Olivia whispered to herself trying to remember how long she was in the rec room. Severa would be the cutest female unit and I wish I could have twin tails as long as Severa's.

Italicized text is internal thoughts of Olivia that aren't said.

[Charlia]

What Gideon did not know was that the clock was five minutes fast--it was midnight as he stepped into the cemetery, only to see his intended quarry had already arrived. "Hello?" he called. "I'm here!" The shadow in the middle of the stones turned, and he screamed as the hideous face of the killer appeared--it was the last sound he would ever make.

The cloaked figure replaced the cork and walked away, moving as silently as a ghost.

The coroner would later determine that Gideon Johnson died of arsenic poisoning at 12:02. The only evidence was a playing card left at the scene--from the Red Hawk casino, the ace of spades.

Charlotte looked up to see that some other girls had entered the room. "Hi."

[Armeia]

"Swag. Call me Swag," said Sammy, grinning. "Everyone did, I even wore it on the back of my jersey when I played for AIK."

Where's the girls? he thought, thinking of how he'd mainly seen boys around here. "You want to go find some chicks?" he asked. "I can give you some pointers in flirting, I'm a bit of an expert!"

[Kwadai]

Ezri
"I can't stand him..but then again that is an initial judgement", Ezri remarked. "So who is your roommate?", he asked Jan careful not to interrupt the conversation with Sammy.
"Hi there Sammy..I don't think we've met yet? I'm Ezri. Ezri Kuznetsov", he introduced himself.

Maya
"Of course. I'm quite peckish. Haven't eaten for a while", Maya responded following Isabella outside.
