"Report, what's going on over there?!"

[center]You are a child of Man. As such, you know tragedy. 

The tragedy of killing one's child. 
The tragedy of being killed by one's child. 
The tragedy of not knowing one's family. 
The tragedy of abandoning one's family.[/center]

"I can't...something's wrong, the energy's accumulating too fast! We can't contain it!"

[hr]
[center]The tragedy of lamenting treachery. 
The tragedy of living in treachery. 
The tragedy of losing fortune. 
The tragedy of being killed by fortune.[/center]

"Safeguards one through fourteen are down! Even the storage container's starting to approach its limit!"

[center]The tragedy of not knowing of love. 
The tragedy of mocking love. 
The tragedy of seeking success. 
The tragedy of loathing success.

[center]Rebellion, intimidation, adultery, destruction, coercion, theft, desertion, slander, arson, mockery, disrespect, discord, abduction, bribery, abortion, suicide, gambling, mobbing, abandonment, kidnapping, violence, living.  It hurts, it hurts, it hurts. And yet, I cannot help but feel indifferent in its face. As my body rots, as my soul breaks, as that "everything" I hold so dear crumbles to naught, I cannot but help but ask if it mattered to begin with.[/center]

"It's not responding, the process is continuing on its own! Emergency evacuation, now! We need to get out of he-"

[center]Do not curse your enemy, for he would not wish this upon you.
Do not curse yourself, for you were too myopic to realize this truth.
Do not curse your world, for it is merely a mindless system following destiny.
Do not curse your God, for it understands reality in a way you cannot.
Do not curse the Other, for it does not know the meaning of what you call tragedy.
Then, what shall you curse?[/center]
[hr]
"What...What the hell is that?"

[hr]
[center]It is simple. 

Curse the fact that you have nothing to curse. And bellowing this curse until your lungs give out, you will be whisked away into the night.[/center]

[h2][b]Matsushima Mitsuko[/b][/h2]
[i]Classroom 2-A, Yurei High School[/i][/center]

With a raised eyebrow, a steel-faced young girl looked out over the gathered individuals. Frankly, the sheer number of people who had elected to come to this first meeting was...surprising. She had expected no more than three or four prospective members. 

Maybe the promise of free snacks was [i]that[/i] enticing? She'd have to note this for later...

After checking the clock mounted on the classroom wall to confirm the time, the young girl walked over to the propped-open classroom door and slammed it shut with a resounding thud, subsequently clearing her throat firmly to disrupt the chatter of those inside of the classroom as she walked up towards the board at the front of the classroom, where a teacher would be standing during a lecture. Once everyone had quieted themselves, she spoke. 

[color=7ea7d8]"Good afternoon, everyone. For those of you I have not met previously, I am Matsushima Mitsuko. It is my pleasure to welcome all of you to the first meeting of the newly-refounded Occult Club. Feel free to take a brownie and a bottle of water, if you're so inclined."[/color] She stated, gesturing to a corner table on which a sizable tupperware container of brownies and a case of water bottles sat.

Speaking up in a crisp tone, the girl, Mitsuko, addressed her peers with a straight face, though one might notice the trace of a smile playing across the edges of her lips. She had to admit that she was rather satisfied with this turnout, even if the majority of those here were probably present to make a mockery of her organization. 

[color=7ea7d8]"Now then, today's meeting agenda is to become acquainted with one another, to discuss preliminary matters pertaining to the occult, and to discuss the theme of this year's Halloween Extravaganza. I will be distributing waivers for those who are interested in that at the end of the meeting."[/color]

[color=7ea7d8]"Let's begin. Would anyone like to introduce themselves? Name, year, what brought you here. If you'd like to provide a 'fun fact' or something of that ilk, then feel free so long as it doesn't take several minutes to say."[/color]
