[OH GOD OH GOD SCARY SKELETONS EVERYWHERE

[Alessa (in projection mode) has fled the terrifying and noisy dress-up corpse parade by hiding in the Concert Hall. Having calmed down slightly, she's been exploring and encountered one of the numerous pianos in a practice room.

[She plinks a note experimentally, then spends a moment trying to recall her (sadly brief) lessons.]

plink plinkety plink plink

[A very simple melody echoes faintly down the hall. It's inexpert, but the player has a little smile on her face.]

[It is a cold morning, and most people would be bundled up. One girl is not though. Kanako is walking through the gardens in just her summer uniform, which is all wrinkled and doesn't look washed. She herself looks like she has not eaten in days, and is going on auto pilot.

When she reaches a lake she stops, and stares at the anyone that is walking by. For a moment a smile appears on her face... but it is quickly replaced by one of fear and self disgust. She grabs a rock on the ground and starts to hit herself on the head. Blood starts to roll down her face as she starts to scream.]

GET OUT OF MY HEAD! YOU PERVERTED THOUGHTS!! GET OUT!!!!!!!!!!

[The Vine opens up to reveal the inside of Utena's dormitory, the Tower Room in particular. It's spacious and lacking in decoration and furniture, except for a strangely shaped bed that Anthy is sitting on, her legs together and her hands in her lap as she faces the screen with a serene smile. She'd like to address the residents of the Gardens for the first time, formally.]

Hello. [For the most part she's been keeping to herself. A hideous spattering of nightmares and the strange incidents of the past month have kept her from revealing herself too soon. Among other reasons. It hasn't been a pleasant arrival for her, but she doesn't appear disturbed or distressed in the least.] Ah, how to begin? I'm quite new, you see, so you may not recognize me.

Then again. [Her voice switches key, imperceptibly. Lower, a bit darker.] This room here is a place I do recognize. [Anthy brightens up her tone and her smile before she speaks again.] I was wondering...

If anybody knew the person who used to live here?

[OOC: first post ahhhh she's trying to find out more about Utena obviously but please feel free to bug this antisocial loser so she can maybe make some friends god.]
