✭ Interested in finding out what's happened so far? Check out the plot guide and recap post!

To get you started, here are a few optional prompts for you to use if you so wish:

Prompts

1. [Setting: Elevators] Did you know it takes a half hour to get from the top of the dorms down to the cafeteria by elevator? Well you're finding out now! Strike up a conversation with the others stuck in there with you! Maybe play I Spy or something.

2. [Setting: Floor Eighty-Six] What's with all the mushrooms? And why are they in circles? That's weird--but maybe the mushrooms are edible? On the other hand, maybe you know exactly what these are--and you should really stop that idiot who's going to jump right in the middle of one of the fairy rings before he gets everyone on the floor turned to jell-o or something.

3. [Setting: Floor Seventy-Nine] Fancy some deep-sea diving? Grab some scuba gear, hop off the staircase, and explore some ruins! Just be careful you don't run out of air or run into a shark (or run into a shark while you're running low on air). Of course, if you can breathe underwater or just don't need to breathe at all, then the sharks would be your only worry. Try and find some treasure!

4. [Setting: Floor Fifty-Nine] Is this a torture chamber? Yes it is. Maybe you want to get out of here as soon as possible or maybe this floor really speaks to you. Maybe you want to give that iron maiden try on the first person who happens to wander by! On the other hand, maybe you got a bit too close to something and are about to take a spin in the racks yourself. Hopefully someone will come help you.

5. [Setting: Floor Thirty-Three] There's farmland on this floating island, and anything you can grow yourself is bound to be more reliable quality-wise than the cafeteria food. Of course, the recent odd storms have made a mess of this floor. Get to cleaning it up and then get to growing something!

6. [Setting: Floor Two] It's time for your first collar checkup! Go wait in the waiting room for your turn--maybe strike up a conversation and find out what this is all about! Or try to fight the worker units when they call for you, not that fighting them ever ends well.

7. [Setting: Anywhere] Whoops, you've gotten distracted, or lost, or you're still climbing up the stairs when night falls. It's time for the monsters to start prowling--and one's got its eyes (or whatever sensory organs it may have) on you! Time to fight back, or time to run?

Lelouch vi Britannia | Code Geass

A. Floor 3 or Floor 19

[You're most likely to find Lelouch here, looking through books and keeping to himself mostly. There's no history books to look at, but he'll make use of what he can find to try to make sense of why he's here, or how he's here, considering what he could last recall.

Feel free to bother him while he's reading or when he gets up to return a book and grab another one.]


B. Stairs

[It makes sense to investigate a new place when you've arrived there. So that is precisely what Lelouch is doing. Getting a look at his new "home", though it's more like looking for any sort of clue that it was false. He should be, as far as he's concerned, dead at this very moment. If he was still alive, well... Then the plan had gone terribly awry. Had he somehow ended up with C.C.'s code in the end? No, he would know the code then, and he doesn't, but that's the only way this would make sense. It was a problem no matter how he looked at it.

And just how many stairs does this place have, anyway? His climbing slows to a stop as he leans heavily against the railing to catch his breath. As much as he wanted to get a good look at this place, maybe he should have taken the elevator instead.]

[It probably would have benefited Lelouch to take the elevator rather than the stairs. Unfortunately for him, he's going to be happening across John Egbert on his trek up the endless flights of stairs. John himself was likely headed for the music room, or his alternate self's room. It's not really a strange occurrence any longer to see a new person wandering the tower, just a surprise to see them wandering the stairs alone.

This new person came with an added bonus to poke a little fun at them. This is not a thing that happens very often. People usually throw such a shit fit, man.

Winded already? You have such a long way to go. Depended on your destination of course.

[He snickers in Lelouch's direction.]
