SECOND EVENT: THE MILGRAM EXPERIMENT

[birdkeepers]

At exactly 2:00 in the afternoon, an announcement goes off: the intercom clicks on, and the warden reads a list of names. "... If your name has been called, please come to the cafeteria. You're to participate in the next event! If you do not go on your own, a guard will find and escort you

GROUP 1

[birdkeepers]

Madoka Kaname is led into the teachers' half of the room, and Homura Akemi is led into the students' half.

[hopespells]

Madoka sits down and looks across from herself, at the girl sat there. Homura... she's both glad and sad that she's been paired with her. Sad, and scared-- because she doesn't know what's going to happen. But glad because they're together.

"Um, we start now, right?"

[heartovertime]

Homura sits, looking a little down with her hands in her lap. "I guess..."

That statement about this being a more deadly experience was a joke right? They would step in if something actually was dangerous, wouldn't they? It's just a show, isn't it?

She has no clue what the button will do if she gets an answer wrong, but...maybe it would be okay.

[hopespells]

She shuffles the cards on the table and pulls one out, reading before she really recognizes the words.

"Um... Okay. I'll ask... What do you sit on, sleep on, and brush your teeth with?" The answer is tricky, the kind of thing specifically made to fool, and she doesn't like it much. She's scared something bad will happen to Homura when she presses that button.

GROUP 2

[birdkeepers]

Minatsuki Takami is led into the teachers' half of the room, and Kiyomasa Senji is led into the students' half.

[switchmyphrase]

Senji was escorted into a small cubicle- with what looked like a chair waiting for him. Perfect. He would win this event and gain even more CP- this crap was a cinch. Even though, last time he had tried to mess with the math nerd and got made fun of for it.

No fooling around this time! It was his time to shine!

He went and took a seat--...when he saw his 'teacher', "fucking no way-"

[mybroisthebest]

Minatsuki found herself being led into a cubicle for this event. Hopefully this one would involve some actual suffering, since during the last event there wasn't much of that. There was a stack of papers and some kind of switch in front of her--and when she looked up, she noticed a familiar face on the other side of the glass. A sadistic smirk tipped the corners of her lips before it softened into a dangerous smile. This was gonna be fuckin' great.

After hearing the explanation of the game, she began flipping through the stack of cards, picking out the most difficult ones to ask first. Hell, for this guy though, they were all gonna give him some trouble, she figured. She held up a card and glanced over at her student, offering him a dark, twisted grin.

"Let's have some fun, okay? Ready when you are~."

[switchmyphrase]

He growled at her. This girl- he knew he was going to die, there was no way around it. He had hunted her down before and attempted to get some answers outta her, but...but dammit...!!

...Fuck- he didn't even know her name.

"Bring it on girly- I ain't getting any younger here, cheh! These damn questions better be dead center or I'll be pissed."

GROUP 3

[birdkeepers]

The Dark Ace is led into the teachers' half of the room, and Dahlia Hawthorne is led into the students' half.

[coreopsideae]

Dahlia looked around at her surroundings. This room didn't look particularly dangerous...

Primly, she sat down in the metal chair and smoothed out her skirt, then looked through the window at the man there. "Good afternoon," she said with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

[tiaratraitor]

The Dark Ace was, once again, more disappointed than anything else. Still no combat, but at least this time he had been promised blood. Or, he thought disdainfully as he looked down at the list in his hand and the controls in front of him, death, rather than blood. It wasn't ideal, but it would do.

He glanced up at the woman on the other side of the window. She seemed polite, sweet, and everything else that made him want to sneer, but for the moment he kept it to himself. He straightened the paper and eyed the list of questions - ridiculous - before speaking and looking back up at her.

"I assume you're ready." Oh, she was not going to enjoy this, he was sure - unless she was some hidden genius.

[coreopsideae]

"Yes, sir." She nodded hesitantly. "I-I'll do my best! Please go easy on me... I don't know if I'll do very well."

GROUP 4

[birdkeepers]

Fletcher Tringham is led into the teachers' half of the room, and Rosalind is led into the students' half.

[beansprout]

Fletcher looked around once he entered his half of the room. A chair, and a table with a button on it... and a stack of cue cards on the table. This didn't seem too hard...

He looked over at the glass, and the woman who was on the other side.

[unfaded_rose]

Rosalind's lips twitched slightly at the sight of her 'teacher' as she took her seat. The chair wasn't comfortable but she managed to make it look like she was.

"You might as well start," she said, her voice crisp.

A test of knowledge. Rosalind had to admit she wasn't that worried about failing.

[beansprout]

"Um-- y-yes, ma'am." Fletcher nodded to her, and took his seat at the table, then picked up the stack of cue cards and looked at them.

Aha. This top one was simple enough... He cleared his throat, and asked the first question. "Who was the first president of the United States?"

GROUP 5

[birdkeepers]

MOMO Mizrahi is led into the teachers' half of the room, and Oichi Oda is led into the students' half.

[nightmaresound]

Oichi is led into the room, sits down, and carefully stands again. She slowly moves to press her hands against the glass.

"How peculiar," she murmurs. "How perfectly odd... Ichi does not like this room."

[second_sakura]

MOMO supposes that she was well, a coward, for having hidden out in her cell since the last event, but all things considered...

That hadn't been such a bad idea, truly.

She stares at the cards and at the button and at the other girl on the other side of the glass.

"Um," she says, clasping her hands together. "Is there something wrong?"

Other than the fact that they're playing a game that will likely be horrible in some way, though she's not sure how yet.

[nightmaresound]

She looks to MOMO, very interested in the other girl for a moment, before looking to the cards on the table. Yes... a game. She'd been distracted-- the hopeless vibe in this room, the echoes of other people talking next to them. It was easy to forget the reason they're here. "Yes... a horrible room. Let's begin, ok? Let's start..."
