Sure, why not, you can have a pamphlet. Mostly it's a map of the school:

Over the course of about the next fifteen minutes or so, the rest of the students file in, and then eventually...

Monokuma takes the stage.

"Welcome, class, to Hope's Peak Academy! Unfortunately, my close personal friend Headmaster Makoto Naegi couldn't be here today. I know you all were hoping to meet him, but I'll be standing in—your lovable mascot, Monokuma!"

Edwin hears these words and it hits him like a truck.

Close personal friend.

Maxwell merely raises an eyebrow. Edwin must be new to this: Meaningful Words pop up constantly if you're looking for them!

Ok, but it is still a bit suspicious, isn't it?

Although, that does mean the presentation was wrong about the orientation speech being delivered by their close personal friend Makoto Naegi, so,

"All of you, except Hubert, have been hand-selected for your stand-out performance in your field of choice! You should be proud of yourselves: no other school has students even a bit as special as you all are."

Who is Hubert??? Why is, uh... Momokuna, maybe? Edwin forgot his name—why is the bear throwing shade at him?

Did the bear write the orientation guide???

Does that mean he's actually dangerous and doesn't want us to know???

Then why would it be so obvious?

Why in a random orientation guide on the internet???

"If you open up your pamphlets..." Monokuma pauses to give the students a chance to do so, "you'll see a map of our lovely campus. My personal favorite location is the Monokuma-themed elevator, right next to the A/V Room! Unfortunately, it cannot fit an entire class at once, so please plan accordingly once you're dismissed."

He looks out at the students. They all seem to be following along with his introduction, just as expected.

"Now," he reaches down and pulls out a clipboard, "I'll read a message for you from Headmaster Naegi."

Dear Class of 2024,

Welcome to Hope's Peak Academy! I deeply regret that I cannot be present today as you delve into a new stage of your lives, but urgent matters at Makoto Naegi Water Bureau unfortunately require my immediate attention. As you step into the spotlight at Hope's Peak Academy, I want each and every one of you to remember that you were chosen not only for your talent, but also for your potential to inspire hope in others. While your talents make you exceptional, it is how you use them that will truly reveal your character. During your stay at Hope's Peak Academy, I encourage you to support and learn from each other, challenge yourselves to grow beyond your current abilities, and remember that hope comes from working together.

The bonds you forge here will become part of your personal narrative long after graduation. While some may see Hope's Peak as merely a setting for academic achievement, I believe it's where you'll discover the themes that will define your future. Monokuma, our lovable mascot, stands ready to help you navigate these waters.

In times of uncertainty, remember that even the smallest seed of hope can blossom into something extraordinary. Your predecessors have left quite a legacy to live up to, but I have no doubt that you'll rise to the occasion. After all, the brightest futures often emerge from the darkest of times – though I sincerely hope your school life will be considerably less dramatic than mine was.

The path ahead may seem daunting, but remember: every mystery has its solution, every puzzle its answer, and every student their moment to shine. Your time at Hope's Peak isn't just about developing your talents – it's about discovering the strength that lies within collaboration, the wisdom found in trust, and yes, the power of hope itself.

While I may, at the moment, not be physically present, my thoughts are, as always, with you, the stars of Hope's Peak Academy, as you begin this exciting new chapter. I look forward to meeting each of you personally upon my return.

With hope for the future,
Headmaster Makoto Naegi
Hope's Peak Academy

P.S. Be careful around the water fountains for the next few days. They should be fixed shortly, but better safe than sorry.

What a touching speech! Eden applauds lightly.

Does the prohibition on water fountains extend to tap water in the dorms? She's fixing to install a water filter, would that be enough?

Permalink

Well, the speech only said anything about water fountains.

The Ultimate Volleyball Player has been sitting to the side, not really paying much attention or interacting with anyone. She's mostly impatient to head over to the gymnasium and practice volleyball.

...Wouldn't you need at least one practice partner to do that?

Permalink

...No, why would she need that?
