Accel World: Rebel Impulse

OOC Thread

Sometime in 2047,
Kazuraba Junior High School
Neo Tokyo City

The school year has just begun.

All of you are standing just outside the gates of Kazuraba High. It’s relatively old, by Tokyo standards, as a high school; it was founded sometime in the early 1900 and overhauled in the 2020s after the rotting second floor collapsed onto the first floor. Thankfully, there were no casualties, but the school had to be evacuated and eventually demolished; however, the then-incumbent and still current headmaster, a man by the name of Tohru Akiyama who had inherited a small fortune from his family’s zaibatsu, paid and fought to keep the school site away from hungry developers looking to develop more housing after the earthquakes of the early 2000s. Instead, he rebuilt the school, with more modern-looking architecture and including the then-new Neuro Linker technology as part of the site’s new designs.

Indeed, the building is a cutting sight in the ward; several steel and glass buildings, resembling more high-class apartments than a school building. This is not helped by the large green areas on campus, with trees and bushes tastefully placed for aesthetic as well as environmental reasons; after all, in a bustling metropolis like Neo Tokyo, green becomes increasingly rare. Classrooms with new touch-screen interfaces and ports to connect Neuro Linkers installed into the tables can be seen from the outside through massive panes of toughened glass, as well as a new track for athletics and running, a new gymnasium and a separate building for the cafeteria and the first years. The whole place is also walled off from the outside world, with only two ornate black gates, as well as two smaller pedestrian gates opening on either side, permitting access to Kazuraba High from the rest of Neo Tokyo.

All in all, nothing particularly special about it aside from the fact that it looks as if a part of Shibuya ward- a train ride away- got itself lost and stuck far away from home.

You are students at this school. Whether you are new to Neo Tokyo and just starting your first year at Kazuraba High, or have been here for years and finishing your last, you’re standing at the open school gates. Whether talking to your friends in reality, or browsing the Internet on the overlay that Neuro Linkers provide, you’re in a world of your own.

For now.

((RP for now, more or less.))

[SOLDIER First]

A short, frail-looking girl sits by herself at the end of a bench, absorbed in the Internet on her Neuro Linker.

A boy in a white hoodie lays on a grassy patch staring up at the sky

[Twinwolf]

Midori yawns as she approaches the school, her friend Kotaro in tow. She wouldn't usually be this early if he hadn't insisted on trying to stop cutting it so close, but eh, gives her time to set up her avatar and stuff on the school network.

"Why did we have to be so early, anyway... *yawn*"

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Kotaro looks around carefully, his calm and apathetic face belying his wariness at all the people he's never met before.
"Erm....you know, just in case we get stuck on the train..."

[Twinwolf]

"How often does that even happen? I'd rather have gotten some more sleep..."

As she's talking, she's checking if she's switched to the school network yet or if they have to be within the gate.

[Powder Miner]

A boy dressed in a bright red jacket over his uniform, visibly not one hundred percent of Japanese heritage, leans against one section of the gate, a book in Spanish held up in front of his face and apparently capturing all of his attention -- the boy is smiling and engrossed in the book.

[Bluexdog]

Makoto looks around then decides to connect to the school network

[IamanElfCollaborator]

The network extends just out of the gate. It's possible to connect.
"U-uh....it happens a lot....I hear..."

[Twinwolf]

Midori pouts. "But sleeeeeep."

She notices is Kotaro's tone, even as his face remains neutral. "Calm down, I'm sure you'll make friends just fine!"

Once Midori connects, she sets about setting up her profile and avatar on the school network

[Bluexdog]

Makoto being bored on his patch of grass decides to log in to a game, his avatar is a small white dog

[Sl4cker]

A strangely-outfitted boy lies on the edge of a bench, looking at the nearby flora. He seems to be lost in thought.

[Chevaleresse]

A small, silver-haired girl sits down on the edge of the aforementioned bench and quietly sets about getting set up on the school's network along with the others, occasionally looking around somewhat furtively. She's wearing a mostly black outfit with violet accents, which match her eyes. She murmurs a small, nearly inaudible "Hello" to the boy on the bench.

[Sl4cker]

He blinks once, glares at her, and grunts. He then resumes daydreaming.
