[ Opening Mingle ]
[Everyone will wake up suddenly, as if having drifted off -- while sitting upright in an uncomfortable office chair. In one hand they're holding the communicator, and in their lap is propped a clipboard with a job application (standard, looking something like this; it requests up to ten years of job history, ) and a pen. The waiting room is also fairly standard, except for being empty.]
[The communicator's lock screen reads, Complete the job application. Time limit, twenty-four hours.]
[There are magazines, fake plants, and computers. There's a staff lounge with food -- tupperware that might have belonged to some of these nonexistent workers, popcorn and cocoa packets, vending machines -- and restrooms. There are exits, but characters will be unable to use them... or make their own, or escape in any way.]

[So the characters are stuck here, until tomorrow morning. Set up a comment telling everyone what your character is doing, and thinking, whether they're obeying the task or not, at any time during the day. Then tag other people! Be sure to check back later in the week, when people are encouraged make threads for the evening as well as the day! Characters that have been claimed are also welcome at this point to join the community, and will be able to make their own posts, which can be tagged by anyone taking part in the event.]

The kind that could end up hurting people.

[well that's depressing. bart falls silent and resumes chewing his gum, eyes shifting so that he's back to staring - this time awkwardly - at the vending machine.
after a second:]
Sorry.
no subject
That's okay, you--you don't have to apologize.
no subject
Nah, everyone keeps telling me I need to learn to keep my mouth shut, but I guess that hasn't happened yet.
[also wow he just realized he never introduced himself oops. so much for good manners.]
I'm Bart. [sheepish headscratch.] Forgot to say that earlier too.
no subject
[small smile] It's nice to meet you, Bart. [holds out his hand for a shake all formal and gentlemanly like]
no subject
shut up scott's totally a friend now. bart's totally reaching out to give that hand a firmshake, even if he's way more comfortable with brofists and high fives.also now that the awkward has been broken again, bart feels comfortable returning to his chatterbox ways.]
So you think anyone's actually gonna come for us tomorrow? Or are we gonna be stuck here for the rest of eternity and forced into cannibalism like they show on those TV shows?
no subject
[also what an imagination] We'll be fine. Someone will have to check up on us after the twenty-four hour time limit.
no subject
How do you know? What if it's all some really big trap and we're being lied to?
