LOCATIONAL |
Dormitory: Midnight Visitor
Your character is awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of one of the students in the dorm sneaking out. The next day, the student acts completely normal, as if nothing happened. Your character is torn between confronting them about it or following them the next time it happens.

Dormitory: The Secret Stash
Your character accidentally stumbles upon a hidden stash of letters, photographs, or other personal items in a shared or common area of the dormitory. The items clearly belong to one of the other students, and reveal something surprising or troubling about them. When the owner realizes the stash has been found, they become frantic and confront your character, leading to a tense discussion about privacy, secrets, and trust.

Dormitory: Mismatched Room Swap
Due to a clerical error, your character has been assigned a dorm room that is already filled. While trying to sort out the mix-up, the two find a mysterious letter under the bed addressed to neither of them. The letter hints at a secret club or a hidden location on campus that they can’t resist investigating.

Dormitory: Locked In Together
Both characters get locked in a common area, like a study room or kitchen, after hours when an automatic door shuts, trapping them inside. They have to find a way to work together to escape before they’re caught breaking curfew or questioned about why they’re out so late.

Bluebell Lake: Lost and Found
Both characters arrive at Bluebell Lake for different reasons—one for a quiet moment of reflection, the other to search for a missing object rumored to have been lost there. They discover an abandoned boat tied to the dock with odd markings, and when they investigate, the boat begins to drift away, leaving them stuck on the lake with only each other for company.

Observatory: Locked In
Both characters independently head to the observatory for different reasons—a class assignment, stargazing, or just curiosity. They find themselves locked in when the observatory’s old security system malfunctions. As they wait for someone to rescue them, they notice a faint light flashing in the distance from the top of the observatory. It could be a signal—or a warning.

Greenhouse: The Plant Thief
Your character catches a student or staff sneaking around the Greenhouse after hours, carefully cutting clippings from some of the more exotic plants. When confronted, they insist it’s for a good cause—perhaps a personal experiment, a secret garden project, or even something more mysterious. Your character must decide whether to help them or report them to the gardening club or Greenhouse supervisor.

CLASSES |
Cooking: Recipe Rivalry

Cooking: Disaster Duo
Your character is paired with someone who seems like a total klutz in the kitchen—burning, spilling, and generally making a mess of things. As the chaos unfolds, your character must either take control to save the dish or embrace the chaos and see where it leads.

Cooking: Lost in Translation
The class is assigned to cook a dish from a foreign cuisine, but your character's partner insists on following their own (possibly flawed) translation of the recipe. As they cook, your character notices that the instructions seem increasingly bizarre, and they must figure out if their partner is pranking them, genuinely confused, or if there’s some deeper meaning behind it.

Drama Theatre: Improvised Emotions
During an improv exercise, your character and their partner are given the prompt to act out a scene where they have to confess a deep secret to each other. As the scene unfolds, your character starts to suspect that their partner's "secret" might be a little too real. The line between acting and reality blurs, making your character question if they should go along with it or confront their partner after the exercise.
