Rating: A+



[As mentioned here, it's the start of a fresh term!

For some sense of guidelines, the morning of the 17th (Wed!) will be filled with testing and review, for new students and returning students alike, until the lunch break. (And if anyone misses the initial testing, they can always take it at another time! Very handwaveable, that.)

Students can chat before they begin or after they finish, but they will be penalized for during. There will be baked goods and lemonade as a treat during the lunch period and after school. (If they need more time for the tests, they won't be allowed to leave the room with the others, though snacks will be made available for them as well.) Newer students can request a tour (if they hadn't received one already).

The playground is always open for after school or lunch break interactions.

The other classes - Art/Music, Magic, and World Sharing - will continue on as usual, and will be similar through the week. Magic will start off with questions about progress during the break for those pursuing interest in the spirits, and demonstrations, as well as a chance to compare the concept between worlds for the newer arrivals. World Sharing will allow students to show off locations in the battle dome, either ones previously viewed or new ones they want to introduce.

The other days will follow the usual schedule!

You're not limited to the headers! Just do what you want--these are just some suggestions as to what's going on, but they aren't the be-all-and-end-all of what can be played with! Chat with each other, set up things! And by all means play with the current ongoing shifts! It's meant to be for CR!]


As always, please add your character to the roster here and update if there are any changes!

[She frowns.]

What kinda cookies are there?

[Because Gee Girl does make pretty good cookies (when she doesn't forget and leave them in the oven too long). Maybe she doesn't want to trade.]

[wise_maiden]

There are many kinds... hmm. [And as luck would have it, they're entering the lunchroom.] It'll be easier just to show you.

[And she'll be able to see the trays, varying from chocolate chip, lemon, sugar, oatmeal, some of varying shape and possibly edibleness, but that depends on which tray she chooses from.]

[lostlegacy]

[Well, they can rule out the oatmeal cookies right away. Only adults like oatmeal cookies. But huh, she's never seen that kind of cookie before.]

What's that? [She points at the lemon cookie.]

[wise_maiden]

Those are lemon flavored! [She looks a little too excited by the interest in them. Surely Sophie's tasted some before, during one of Raine's winter gifting years.] They can sometimes look similar to sugar cookies, so I thought I'd make them look a little more unique to stand out more.

If this isn't okay, lemme know!

[lostlegacy]

[... After the first time she got a gift from Raine, she's proceeded to feed any food she gets to Gee Girl.]

...Why're they yellow?

oh boy |D

[wise_maiden]

[Give her some slack, after six years and some working with Sanji they're more hit or miss these days, unless she's feeling particularly adventurous...]

Because ordinary lemons are yellow. I thought about trying another color to change things up, but I couldn't decide on what.

[lostlegacy]

[Hey, maybe Grune's been getting good meals, then!]

Blue.

[Blue is the best colour, okay.]

[wise_maiden]

... Oh? Any reason for that?

[No, now is not the time for those gears to be turning.]

[lostlegacy]

Blue's better than yellow.

[Sophie no stop.]

[wise_maiden]

So you're more likely to eat something blue than something yellow?

[lostlegacy]

[And suddenly, she realises she's in dangerous territory.]

...Maybe.

[wise_maiden]

There are plenty of things we could try out that idea on...

[fortunesgun]

I see. It would probably be best to hold off on contacting the spirits of light and darkness for now, then.

[She pauses, thinking.]

Given how dangerous Luceti seems, healing seems like it would be a very helpful skill to have. Wind magic, too, seems like it might be good for distracting and disorienting opponents; do you know where these two spirits reside?

[fortunesgun]

[And, as she should have expected initially, it seemed like her ninja friend was at as much a loss as she was.]

So, you're unsure how to solve this problem as well.

[wise_maiden]

You don't have to travel for Nala, though I recommend finding a place you feel comfortable to meditate in. She's very friendly, so as long as you keep at it she'll be more likely to gravitate toward you. They're invisible, but she has a... warm sort of presence. You'll know her once she's there. Though Twila may attempt to sneak in as well... just be careful about that.

As for Kipinn, most people seem to have had luck with him in the mountain areas, unless we've had particularly windy days in the village proper. Do you know how to get over to the hot springs? That may be the easiest way.

[Music]

[lordhotman]

No, nothing this big. We have stringed instruments, horns, flutes, and drums.

[Really all they have are instruments that are small enough to carry around. Nothing nearly this massive.]

[lordhotman]

That's a lot better. See? You're getting the hang of it.

[Like with anything, practice makes perfect.]

If you keep practicing you should get better.

[lordhotman]

No, I don't think so. Only people from my world who are born with the ability, can firebend.

But I could help you connect with Efrit.

[Not quite the same, but it's still fire magic.]

[rashness]

No I ain't! Like... I've got some stuff I've been handling but I'm still doing work here...

[wipesfaith]

Who knows, maybe... [Somehow, he doesn't think it's that kind of convenient story.] Hey, maybe I could just write about that, what everybody does when it's over.

[wipesfaith]

How about I draw, and you sit, and then we'll trade.

[That's the gentlemanly thing to do, right? Letting her relax first? Maybe? Although he's not sure why he should be thinking about something like that now. But he's setting off to find some spare seats for them.]

[revolutionarygirl]

Ah, okay. Sure, that sounds like a plan.

[She does appreciate being able to relax first despite the fact that at least Jean wouldn't ask to draw her naked, but that's the wrong continuity for this Utena anyway, so she's definitely not complaining. She'll follow Jean in his search to find seats for them, all while trying to search for words to say.

Those shifts were a pain in the neck with all the weird stuff they make people pull!]

[lostlegacy]

What kinds of things?

[They're all doomed.]

[lostlegacy]

[A big smile appears on her face. Then--well, I hope you really like the sound she made, Zuko, because she's going to be making a lot of it. Over and over and over....]

[Music]

[of_sablier]

Well, I suppose there are advantages to smaller instruments. As nice as pianos are, they aren't exactly the most portable. If you want to perform a piece that involves one, you'll need to be in a place that has a piano already.
