『WEATHER』 SUNNY 94°! ✖ 『DATE & TIME』 6/15/2013 - 4: 43PM ✖ 『DAY』 01[/url] !!x x xxxxxxxxxx The Camp Circle came into view and Noëlle sighed, a gentle flood of memories filling her chest with a reminiscent warmth. The warmth only spread when she laid eyes on Bryan, who stood smiling just a few feet away and making conversation with another counselor (?). Eager not to appear eager, she walked past him and gave him a friendly wave before disappearing into the crowd of students with Jacqui, sitting towards the edge of the wide circle. Yes, the Camp Circle was, quite literally, a giant circle made of the occupants of the camp. They all gathered around, huddling close in the center, right across from the cabins and dining hall / loft. To the left of Noëlle stood tall, thick trees and plants--the border of a much darker, deeper forest. To the right, wide lake shimmered; ripples sparkling in the sunlight. Suddenly, a deep bass came blasting through tall speakers. They had set up a mini stage in the center of the circle, like they sometimes did, right where the campfire would normally be. Jacqui's face looked like a startled rabbit, but those who had been around before simply started to cheer. Noëlle crossed her legs beneath her and scanned the crowd, letting her eyes linger on Bryan for a moment before diverting. A few seconds later, a tall, scruffy looking guy with a baseball cap maneuvered his way to the stage, tapping on a headset to make sure it was working before speaking. ❝WELCOME CAMPERS -- NEW AND REVISITING! ARE YOU GUYS READY FOR THE TIME OF YOUR LIVES?❞ Noëlle shook her head back and forth, slightly embarrassed. It was meant to pump everyone up, but it was a bit cheesy. Still, the younger bunch -- like Jack -- were highly responsive to it. The camp leader on the stage was named Kevin. He was a regular here, around 24 in age. Noëlle wondered what exactly he did as a living. ❝Well you've come to the RIGHT PLACE!❞ He reached behind him, into a basket he had taken up on the stage with him, and hauled up an armful of bags of marshmallows, tossing them out into the crowd and earning more cheers. She didn't bother trying to catch one, but Jack was bending over backwards for one. ❝Alright, be careful now!... It's nice to see you guys here on this beautiful Saturday evening. My name is Kevin and I'm going to be basically filling you in about Camp Fortissimo! Basically, there are a few things that are standard here. The first is meal time. Everyone will be treated to breakfast, lunch AND dinner. Your camp counselor will let you know what times. You must attend all three meal times and all group's will have their attendance taken before and after. Then, there are camp meets like this one. When you hear the chime over the intercoms, you are to meet here at the Camp Circle. These can be random or scheduled. Lastly, there are mandatory camp activities! We won't spoil the fun quite yet, but these are various camp-wide actives that we'll all be participating it at once. Your counselor will lead you to these activities! Don't worry, though, a lot of what you do here will be your choice. We've got tons of stuff. Hiking, karaoke, canoeing, pottery, swimming, archery, horse-back riding, volleyball, fishing, laser tag, painting, gardening, yadda yadda...And, of course, we wouldn't be Camp Fortissimo without MUSIC! Just head on down to the music hall if you would like some practice time. You'll have to sign up for a room in advanced though.❞ ❝Right now we're going to sort you into cabins! Take one of the cards. It will have a letter on it and that letter is the cabin you're in. Once you've gotten your card, you can head on over to your cabin and get settled. We'll be having dinner later, and then we'll have Super Cabin Fun Time! Be safe guys, and look forward to one heck of a summer!❞ Kevin left the stage with high energy as the box circled around.

Ooh, how are you liking it so far? I'm okay. ~ I just started To Aru Kagaku no Railgun. 8)
Yo, just a totally friendly reminder that this is an ADVANCED role play. On average, it would be pretty nice of y'all to try and write posts that are 3+ paragraphs long. It doesn't have to be all of the time, but most of the time. After too many 'non-advanced' sized posts, I may ask you to leave the RP. I don't want to do that though so, haha. If you need 'help', I wrote this up years ago and it may be worth something now. Please give it a look! http://krystelliacross.deviantart.c...1310?q=gallery:krystelliacross/25816600&qo=15
Thank you for your patience. To get all of 'em in there I'd have to make a gif out of 116 frames so that didn't work out, haha. Had to shorten it to around 20. Spoiler
Day ♥ One Spoiler: ❥ 『WEATHER』 SUNNY 94°! ✖ 『DATE & TIME』 6/15/2013 - 4PM ✖ 『DAY』 01[/url] !!x x !!xxxxxxxxxx Much to her disappointment, stepping off of the cramped, humid, travel bus gave her little relief. Her thighs were still sweating under her shorts, and her nose stung with each breath of dusty, dry, hot air. The sun beat down relentlessly, and there was no soothing breeze to be felt. This was not Noëlle's first time here at Camp Fortissimo. Far from it, actually. Yet somehow the heat still managed to shock and irritate her, especially after such a cool, relaxing ferry ride. The only comfort brought was the thought of the sun setting, as when night fell and the day ended, the camp cooled down significantly and a strong breeze from the river swirled through. At least, that's how she remembered it. The gravel beneath her dug slightly into the bottoms of her sneakers as she trudged forward tiredly. Even emitting the heat, the bus ride was ... draining. Noëlle loved music, but she couldn't deny one of the disadvantages of attending an academy for it. During the long, several hour trip, students had sang their lungs out and whipped their instruments out to play without consideration for those of them trying to rest or listen to their own music on one of the many technological devices that would be confiscated after the Camp Circle Meet. It wasn't all bad, though. Soon, Noëlle would get to see Bryan again. What had it been? A whopping three or so days since she last saw him? Her heart beat quickened in her chest, and suddenly the heat wasn't as crippling; allowing her to catch up to the camp leader guiding them through the woods and to the Camp Circle, dragging her suitcase behind her. This year, maybe, she would actually end up in his cabin. One thing she liked about Fortissimo Academy was the lack of severe gender separation. Well... With certain things. Cabins, specifically. The cabins were pretty average, and the girls had one side while the boys had the other. Sometimes, the camp would be split into 'boys' and 'girls', but only to talk about certain issues. That had only happened once in her time of attending, though. ❝Excited?❞ Noëlle gazed over her shoulder curiously. Oh. Jacqui. Her expression softened. A tall, black-haired, rather plain looking NPC girl with glasses stood smiling to the side of her. The girl's fingers were wrapped around the straps of her giant, black backpack so tightly that her knuckles were white. Cute. Jacqui was an energetic, slightly-awkward freshman, and this was her first time at the camp. Noëlle had spoken casually with her during the ferry ride. ❝I guess so, yeah. I've been here so many times before it's lost a bit of it's charm... What about you? This is your first time here, right?❞ The girl's cheeks reddened violently as she shook her head up and down, sending her black curls this way and that. With a laugh, Noëlle perked an eyebrow and leaned slightly closer to her, bumping their shoulders with a skeptical 'hmm?' ❝Doooon't!! It took long enough finding my balance with this backpack ...I-I guess I'm mostly nervous about the treasure hunt. It's not really as s-scary as they make it sound, right?❞ Jacqui's light brown eyes were so wide and innocent that Noëlle decided not to play on her nervousness. On the first night or the second, there was a camp-wide treasure hunt. Whatever you found, you would get to keep during your whole visit. The things may help you in future camp activities, or just make your camp time more conventional. The thing about it, though, was that it was in the dead of the night and there were people in scary costumes who would jump out at you and derail you. You also had to protect your camp counselor. If your counselor was tagged (sprayed with spray paint), your team was out. It was a lot of fun. ❝It's not bad, Jack,❞ Getting used to the taste of the nickname on her tongue, Noëlle paused. Jacqui didn't seem offended. ❝it's a lot of fun. If you don't want to do it, though, you can pretend you have asthma or aren't feeling well and sit out.❞ With a shrug, she continued forward, crossing the short wooden bridge that would lead to the Camp Circle just a few steps behind the quiet camp leader.

Whose music you ask? Why, the students and faculties! Think of the entire school as a large practice ground made just for you! You can go to the small green hills and belt your heart out, or you can go to our little flat grounds, and play any instrument to your heart's content. Want some peace quiet as you compose? Many of our current composition teachers have found themselves out in the cool green trees for inspiration, and even relaxation. Current upperclassmen looking for something to do may sign up to be counselors and other members of staff at our luxurious summer camp! The seasons of study are on hiatus as this sizzling summer of love heats up with our yearly summer camp invitations! From the recently enrolled youngster to the veteran academy adult, all are welcome to take a well deserved break from creating melodies by sunlight, canoeing through tranquil rivers, and enjoy roasting marshmallows by moonlight. ♥♥♥♥C U P I D ' S♥♥B R E W !♥♥♥Word is, at Clayborne High, you just have to make them drink it. At Newman Institute, the rumors say that the recipient will want no one else but you... forever. Somehow, you have finally found the link to the rumored site! Well, 'found' is a bit of a stretch...You notice it in your bookmarks one day. You doubt this site, which when fully loaded is simply a pastel pink background and nothing else, can even do anything for you. Still, your hand drags your mouse up to the address bar to make sure you typed the website in correctly when suddenly white letters in spidery font began to a light themselves on the bright background. ❝Forlorn lover...seek no more, for we, the witches three, have what you want. You believed true love will slip away without a moments haste unless you chase them down with a drink. A brew to be more technical, with our magic words and five ingredients, your chosen mate will want nothing more then to be yours for a lifetime.❞ ❥ Please do not join if you will not be consistently active. I will not harass you about posting. If you drop off of the face of the earth, I am erasing your characters and they will have never existed. I will not talk to you about it or ask you about it. I'm not going to force anyone to be here if they don't really care enough to keep me updated. It is as simple as a talk. No exceptions, minus emergencies or in-advanced requests for short breaks. Right now, 4 Days in-real-life will be equal to 1 Day RP time. There will be a posting requirement. For instance, in 100 Days you have to post once every 48 hours (once every two days or more) or you're kicked out. How often you'll have to post will depend on what everyone's 'availability' is on their OC sheets. Before we start the role play, I will, of course, let you guys know what the posting schedule will look like. This is to ensure we stay consistently active and actually finish the role play. Anyone not okay with this should not sign up. ❥ If you join, please be willing to collaborate with the story line. Contribute. Don't just follow my lead. Throw some plot-twists in there. Have fun with it! This is a collaboration. Thinking of it as writing a story together. To elaborate on this, please be creative. I understand everyone has different creativity levels and I don't expect all of you to be like ... crazy geniuses, but please try. Don't join just to go with the flow.❥ NO MARY-SUES OR STUS. No sugary sweet perfect characters who always try to do the right thing and are pretty much angels with some troubled orphan past that's only made them stronger or given them a hero complex. Please, stray from cliches. Try to make an actually...interesting, dynamic character? ❥ Please do not kill or injure anyone without legitimate reason. Also, on this note, no god-modding. If you fight someone or go to hurt someone, always give them the chance to defend themselves or retaliate. Same on the opposite way. Please don't insta-dodge everything. ❥ You should know your character's bio. I really hate bios in role plays, but if it helps you to figure it out, then I suggest you write it down somewhere.❥ You may have as many characters as you want. Please keep your character sheets SHORT. There is no need at all to write fifty paragraphs. Use all of that creativity and time in the actual role play, not in sign-ups. I want to get to know your character because you showed me, not because you told me in a character sheet. <3❥ Cybering is not allowed, but mature, suggestive scenes ARE. If you write anything highly sexual or highly graphic / disturbing, then please, please, please put a warning at the top of your post. You will never be required to partake in a 'mature' situation, or to read them. So please, for the sake of those who would rather not, warn. ❥ Ages for students must be 12-18. For camp counselors or staff, 18-35. ❥ One liners are allowed, only scarcely (if you have writer's block, or are really, really pressed for time). I am not requiring unnecessarily long posts, but please make an effort.❥ I reserve the right to add or subtract from these rules. I will always alert you all if I do.
