gooseberryhigh | Announcement at Dinner

Multiple prefects at this point have come to the staff about what's been going on in the woods. During dinner, Ms. Vector stands up to make an announcement on the subject.

"Students, we want to let you all know that the recent events in the forest with an unknown magical entity are being looked into. The staff have already had multiple discussions about what has changed and why, but until we have diagnosed the problem, we want to emphasize the importance of school rules. They are for your safety. Do not go out after curfew, do not go to the Grotto, and always stay on the trails."

"And," a voice cuts in. It's Mr. Calderon-Boot. "Stop responding to the anonymous writer. There's strong evidence it has something to do with the woods. Plus, the whole thing is terrible for school morale and encourages bullying. That's not the atmosphere we want here at Gooseberry."

Mr. Merrill looks sceptical about that connection, but no one else speaks up to refute his point. Vector thanks Calderon-Boot, and turns back to the student body. "We've been lenient with you all until now," she says. "The forest has always protected the children of this school. But until we better understand what's happening, the rules will be strictly enforced. Curfew is from 10 PM to 6 AM. No sleepovers and no camping."

Has anyone actually proven that Anony isn't an elaborate student hoax though???

OMG IS IT THE FRESHMEN AGAIN.

OH YEAH! I should probably dropbox this for posterity, but......

lol

I'm the worst

So,

Is there anyway to tell the difference between the Anon writer's text and a student's? Because I'm seriously considering apping a character just to TRoLL THe ANoN PoST.

I KiDNaPPeD WeS CuZ He'S HoT

I KiDNaPPeD WeS CuZ THe RNG ToLD Me Too

iS aLeeNa THe ReaL LiFe CHRiS???

Lmao yes

On the anonymous posts, everyone's writing appears in the same "font" and in the same black ink. Anonymous' writing appears burned into the paper, not inked, and is of a different writing style (blocky, uniform, heavy-handed—more natural than Courier, but we go with Courier because it's a universal font and displays well). So no, a student wouldn't be able to impersonate Anon.

THANK YOU!

damn it i read "WeS CuZ" as "TeD CrUz" and i was like DDD:

TeD CRuZ iS THe THiNG iN THe WooDS

truly nightmarish

that explains so much

Chris is actually torn between that theory

Bc way back when didn't Tess's letter about the journals say that only students have access to the journals

So he's like how did a ghost get it

But then he also knows that on the first anon post the anon explicitly said they weren't a ghost
So he knows damn well this isn't a ghost but he keeps calling them a ghost anyway.

But he and rob have factored that it could be a student really good at herm doing it into their theories

Their main suspect is Jesse tbh

WERE ONTO YOU MCBRIDE

Quinn greatly encourages them to pursue this line of questioning.

I'm pretty sure they elected Tess to keep an eye on McBride

Bc Chris and Robin are both likely to accidentally punch Jesse

And it's difficult to remain incognito when you go around punching your suspects

No no, punching will be fine

Quinn you're supposed to be Chris's defusion expert what the fuck

I think Tess is also supposed to be keeping an eye on Nate, as another senior herm genius.

SOMEONE IN THIS GROUP GOTTA GET SHIT DONE.

NO ITS COOL ROBIN WILL KEEP AN EYE ON NATE. I'LL DO A JOURNAL CONVO WITH ROBIN INTERROGATING NATE AND IT WON'T BE WEIRD AT ALL.
