4th Floor Idiots

Summary:

Vox Machina happen to live on the same floor in the same dorm for college. What could possibly go wrong?

Notes:

Inspired by those two college au chatfics :p

A lot is happening here, but things won't get dark until Percy starts opening up. Until then, they're all just idiots

[8/19/24 5am]
[4th floor]

 

Percy: Good morning.

 

[8am]

 

Vex: And I thought my class was early holy shit

Pike: I wasn’t even up then and I have to pray, shower, and get breakfast before my 8am

Percy: I wasn’t up for a class. I simply went on a walk. I thought 5 was a more respectable time than 3, which was when I woke up at my desk.

Vex: Academic weapon type shit

Percy: What does that mean?

Vex: Nvm. Enjoy your walk!

Percy: Oh, okay.

 

[10am]

 

Scanlan: hey Percy
Scanlan: wtf

Vax: mfer was up @ 1 to
Vax: he woke me up

Vex: You were asleep at 1?

Vax: i have class

Vex: You have no plans on going to class

Vax: shhhh

Percy: You should attend classes you pay for, Vax’ildan.

Vax: fucking jumpscare
Vax: hey percy

Percy: I am returning to the dorm, if you don’t wish to see me.

Vax: im at gilmores

Percy: Who?

Vax: friend of mine
Vax: NOOOOOO

Vex: What

Vax: gilmore is kicking me out :(

Vex: HA
Vex: Why

Vax: because he needs to go to work
Vax: and i cant come :(

Vex: I forgot Gilmore works now

Vax: im coming over to your dorm :p

Vex: What if I dont want you too

Percy: *to

Vax: you dont have a choice
Vax: fuck off Percy!!

Percy: *don’t

 

[8/19/24 10am]
[Kiki — Vex]

 

Vex: Hey can Vax come over

Kiki: Oh, why does he want to?

Vex: Gilmore kicked him out

Kiki: I don't know…

Vex: I can banish him to his dorm
Vex: He can deal with the autocorrector

Kiki: Hey, Percy is actually really nice!!
Kiki: He's just bad at social interaction

Vex: Why are you talking to him

Kiki: He was helping me study for an early exam

Vex: Thats weird
Vex: So banish the annoying brother?

Kiki: Yeah thanks

Vex: Ofc!

 

[8/19/24 10am]
[4th floor]

 

Vax: BITCH STOP CORRECTING ME
Vax: I SPELL JUST FIEN OKAY

Percy: *FINE

Vax: BITCH

Vex: You cant come over

Percy: *can’t
Percy: Oh hello Vex’ahlia. I was annoying your brother.

Vex: Im glad someone is doing that while im gone

Percy: *I’m

Vex: Dont you autocorrect me De Rolo

Percy: The statement “Don’t you auto-correct me” doesn’t make sense. Auto-correct is an automated system, hence the “auto” in the word. I am not an automated system. I am a person who is correcting you. Therefore, my technical title should be “corrector” rather than “auto-correct.”

Vax: this mfer typed a whole essay damn

 

[Vax changed one name(s)]

 

The Corrector: Why.

Vax: you said your the corrector

The Corrector: *you’re

Vax: proving my point

The Corrector: Your lack of punctuation bothers me.

Vax: your correcshon bothers me

The Corrector: *correction
The Corrector: How do you even manage to spell that wrong?

Vex: Hes stupid

Vax: NUH UH I JUST DONT LIKE CLASS

The Corrector: You pay for college. You should enjoy your classes.

Vax: i dont pay for my college

Pike: Hey guys! Please create your own group chat for personal conversations. This was supposed to be for important things like noise complaints or guests, not for personal matters! Thank you.

Vax: oh wait is pike our RA

The Corrector: Did you not realize that?

Vax: no???

Pike: Guys. Stop using the groupchat. Create your own.

Vax: fine damn

 

[8/19/24 11am]
[Vax’ildan Vessar created Annoyers]
[Vax’ildan Vessar added Vex’ahlia Vessar and Percival Fredrickstein von Musel Klossowski De Rolo III]
[Vax’ildan changes three name(s)]

 

Best Twin: so pike wont get mad

Worst Twin: I am not the worst twin!!

Freddie: Why is my name Freddie?

Best Twin: fredrickstein

Freddie: Well, I can't argue with that logic.

 

[Worst Twin changed two name(s)]

 

Vex: I am not the worse twin

Ugly: Yuh-huh
Ugly: THE FUCK VEX IM NOT UGLY

Vex: Have you looked in the mirror

Ugly: IM THE HOTTEST GUY EVER

Vex: Percy? Care to chime in?

Freddie: I don't feel I have a right to comment on this topic.

 

[Ugly changed one name(s)]

 

Vax: i hate having a sister

Vex: >:p

Freddie: Siblings are a gift, Vax’ildan.

Vax: nuh-uh

Freddie: They are.

Vex: Why is the chat called Annoyers

Vax: idk what to call it
Vax: change it if it bothers you so fucking much

 

[Vex changed the name of chat to “The Hot Ones”]

 

Vax: i can get behind that

Freddie: The Hot Ones?

Vex: Trust

Freddie: You two confuse me.

Vex: We tend to have that effect

 

[8/19/24 2pm]
[4th floor]

 

Keyleth: Did we ever share our majors?

Vex: I dont think so

Keyleth: Let’s do icebreakers!
Keyleth: First question. What is your major?

Grog: bizniss

Pike: He means Business. I’m a Biology major with a nursing minor

Keyleth: I’m an Environmental Science major with a minor in Toxicology :)

Vex: Animal Science
Vex: Vet stuff

Vax: criminology and poli sci

The Corrector: Shocking.

 

[The Corrector changed one name(s)]

 

Vax: was that sarcatsuc

Percy: *sarcastic
Percy: No, it was not.

Vax: then whys it shocking

Percy: I didn’t strike you as someone who would major in something so lawful. You seem like you would get high in your mother’s basement for the rest of your life.

Vax: damn
Vax: percy hates me

Vex: You act like you werent high 90% of highschool

Vax: sshhhhh
Vax: anyways i didnt pick my major

Percy: That doesn’t make sense. Who did?

Vax: my father
Vax: so i can do something “respectable” with my life

Percy: Oh.
Percy: Sorry.

Vax: nah its fine

Scanlan: Im a music major and theater minor 😎

Percy: So Scanlan never wants to be able to get a job.

Vax: HAHAHAHAHAH

Vex: Third degree burns damn

Scanlan: So mean!!
Scanlan: Whats your major fancy pants

Percy: I’m a double major.

Scanlan: Fucking nerd

Keyleth: In what?

Percy: I’m going to get called a nerd again.

Vax: tell us fancy pants your name is embarrassing enough

Percy: You managed to spell embarrassing correctly, congratulations.

Vax: vex lets kill him

Vex: Percy what do you major in!

Percy: I don’t want to say.

Vax: tell us!!

Percy: Mechanical Engineering and Mathematics.

Scanlan: EWWWWWWWW

Vax: im roommates with a nerd

Percy: And now I’m being bullied again.

Keyleth: I think that’s cool, Percy!!’

Percy: I feel like you’re making fun of me.

Vax: i am
Vax: who tf double majors
Vax: and double majors in math and engineering

Percy: Mechanical engineering.

Vax: like it makes a difference

Percy: It
Percy: It does make a difference.

Vex: When the comment was so insulting you have to stutter over text lmao

Percy: Mechanical engineering, computer engineering, industrial engineering, and chemical engineering are all separate, different majors. They have very few things in common, especially with their field of study. They are united under the word of engineering, but engineering is an umbrella term with a large scope.
Percy: Mechanical. Engineering. Is. Not. Like. Every. Other. Engineering.

Vex: You really awoke the beast Vax

Vax: i didnt mean to lmao

Pike: Percy, how high was your GPA at your high school? Just out of curiosity.

Percy: 4.0. Possibly higher. I was valedictorian.

Vax: whyd you choose to come to this school???

Percy: Personal reasons.

Keyleth: Do you guys want to come out partying with me?

Vex: Kiki…

Vax: your gonna party?

Keyleth: Yeah?

Vex: Not to be rude or anything but
Vex: You cant exactly hold your liquor darling

Keyleth: I'll be fine! We have to enjoy college life, right?

Vax: im always up to party

Vex: Yeah Ill come too

Scanlan: Sounds like fun!

Pike: Do you need a designated driver?

Keyleth: Probably

Vax: thanks pike

Pike: Ofc!!

Grog: i come

Pike: That just leaves Percy

Percy: No thank you. I don't like parties.
Percy: Or most alcohol.

Vax: let loose dude
Vax: take the stick out of your ass

Percy: Why such a vulgar and rude statement?
Percy: I have work to do anyways. Personal matters to attend to.
Percy: I also, once again, don’t like parties, since it seems you all didn’t read what I said the first time.

Keyleth: Aw okay :(
Keyleth: Are you still good to come help me study before?

Percy: Of course.

Vax: weve known each other for less than a week
Vax: kiki is already better friends with my roommate than i am

Percy: Keyleth is far more civilized than the rest of you.
Percy: Besides Pike.

Scanlan: We just have fun

Percy: Your fun is childish and reckless.

Vax: yeah the best kind

Percy: That is where we disagree.
Percy: Do you want me to pick you up?
Percy: Ignore that.

Vax: who you texting
Vax: girlfriend?
