    And nobody ate dinner that night.

    Get drunk and then sleep on the stairs?

    {*hurts self for not posting sooner*}

    Tale stumbled from a plot hole into his dorm room, which he noticed was already occupied by two other people, TV and laptops running.

    "Um...hi?" he ventured, double-checking the room assignment in his hand. "Droid and Nemesis?" He walked in slowly. Groups of new people, he seemed to be able to manage just fine. When it was just a few...he could already feel the armpits of his shirt starting to soak through. Gross.

    "Uh, which beds are taken?" he queried, trying to sound casual, but aware of his slightly strained voice and damp forehead. He couldn't wait to just get to bed...

    ....PLOT! *rimshot*

    Plot hole? You entered the dorm via a physical manifestation of a gap in the story? What is this, the Anti-Cliche And Mary-Sue Elimination Society?

    So yeah, I won't be putting "OOC" on my posts until Plums moves the plot to morning. Or maybe Nightmare Moon tookover and is making the NIGHT. LAST. FOREVER!. Mostly because my character is sleeping.
     
  4. He was saveing it for the first party of the year, since the only thing he knows how to eat is pizza...he was abandoned as a small child and ended up eating lots of pizza to the point it was the only thing he could eat really...

    That's the hope...

    In any case, Plums has got himself a little bit of a work load. He has to update the first post to put in the new people who joined, update the rooming post and, most importantly, move the plot along.

    You all fall asleep peacefully in your beds, impatiently awaiting the first day of school..

    MORNING


    THE SCHOOL GYM...


    Professor Mish enters stage left. She wears a lab coat, a design of the Death Star running across the torso. Beneath it lies a gray short sleeve, turtle neck sweater, resting idly above a pair of jeans and brown leather boots. Her footsteps sound like thoughts, the sound of her lumber inaudible.


    MISH: Hello all, and welcome to KHV Academy! My name is Professor Mish, and I shall be teaching all those in 9th Grade and under. Fortunately for you lot, I am very skilled in a wde variety of subjects, and have a P.h.D in Professional Professorology...and lots of almost!Dotorates in a lot of other shit. Anyway, today we are here to introduce ourselves, so i feel I should give a little background info about myself. I am --


    (MISH is interrupted as a WOMAN bursts through the curtains. She is wearing an OERBA YUN FANG cosplay, a staff gripped in her right hand. Her eyes look around the crowd wildly.)


    MISH: Dr. Kitty, i am afraid you're late to the party. Again. :I


    KITTY: Aye, but that's what happens when you are busy working to achieve the rank of Forum Helper.


    MISH: Kitty, you do remember that position was dissolved, right?


    KITTY: But what is to say Reporter can't be dissolved? Or Coder or Sectional Mod? If such positions can exist, there is a damn strong chance I will become a Forum Helper someday.


    MISH: ...Anyway, this is Dr. Kitty. For everyone between the ages of 16 and 21, meet your instructr.


    KITY: Aye, I'm Kitty. In my classes, you will be learning about the importance of the various layers of meaning within FF-XIII. How is Lightning so hot? What does she use to keep her bum that round? How does she keep her hair as wavy and sexily pink and curly as it is? Oh, and before I forget, I also give bonus credit to anyone who shows u in Lightning cosplay. Especially the men. ;D


    MISH: Anyway, I believe we have learned quite a bit about our ever loveable Kit-Kat here. My name is Mish, and I will cover the extensive history of KHV. Just how was this city founded? Who were the funders, who were the members that had the most influence, how was that influence spread? By the end of my course, you shall understand the past, and thus be better equipped for the present.


    KITTY: And I believe this is all for now.


    MISH: Yeah, especially since we ran into Lunchtime, since a certain someone was too busy under the sheets with her Lightning pillow again. :I


    KITTY: AYE I THOUGHT WE WOULD NOT DISCUSS THAT IN PUBLIC


    MISH: Anyway, you may all proceed to lunch. feel free to eat with your friends if you wish.





    [​IMG] - [​IMG] - [​IMG]




    For tonight, you may feel free to communicate with one another in casual conversation. You may choose to rest if you like, but you never know what bonds you will forge...



    OOC: Updating room assignments now and fixing the first post up. Sorry again for the wait everyone! :x

    Saxima's night with her new roommates wasn't all bad, they were pretty nice girls and she enjoyed their company. Still, she longed for some solitude.

    The next day, Saxima grabbed her violin case and headed out early in the morning to get to the gym for the assembly, where they were introduced to Dr. Mish and Dr. Kitty - who was a crazy woman, and obsessed with Final Fantasy XIII, especially Lightning Farron. Saxima didn't blame her, she guessed - she would never say this out loud, but Lightning was a hot piece of ass. They were free to go after the assembly to lunch, but she wasn't very hungry and headed towards a quiet courtyard she had found the day before. It was a nice place to sit and play out.

    In the small yard, alone, she dragged out her violin and began to play a soft tune.

    Excasr didn't know with how he would talk to. Hum...
    *hungry*
    He decided to go buy something to eat, for sure he would meet someone in the queue.

    OOC: ...Anyone? c:

    Dorms

    BIU was first of his roommates to wake up. Getting out of his bed he stretched and yawned. He had to admit, his roommates seemed like cool people though he didn't know them enough to say that was a good judge of character on his part. BIU also kept a "hope for the best, but expect the worst" apporch to things, including interacting with people.

    He over to his things. Having not unpacked them last he decided he'd do it when he gets back from school. After getting dressed he pulled from his suitcase a black fedora hat, a black leather jacket and a pair of sunglasses. Placing them on he smiled to himself.

    Yes, he thought. Let the good times roll.

    Walking out of his dorm room he closed the door behind him and began walking to the stairs. As he walked he began to whisle a tune to himself and sortly after begining whistling he start to more or less dance out of the dorm to the tune.

    Acadamy

    In the gym, BIU sat in his chair listening to the introduction of Dr. Mish and Dr. Kitty. That Kitty woman was his teacher apparently, she had an odd fixation for Lightning from FFXIII. He didn't care much for the game, though he probably won't say that infront of Kitty. BIU got the impression she wouldn't take kindly to his opition on the game.

    After the assembly he was free to go to lunch, not that he cared. BIU usally just ate once a day and that was pretty much all he needed as far as he was concern. Walking through the halls of the acadamy he spotted Excasr, he never did talk to his roommates much yesterday.

    "Yo, Ex." he called over to him waving.

    Keyblade Spirit, having arrived in town late, rushed to the dorm and quickly took up residence in starseeker3's room, as was dictated by his room assignment form. Immediately, he plotted an unnecessarily complicated route to the top bunk of the bed. After much planning, he made his move, consisting of a jump onto the shared dresser and a wall run from there, onto the back wall of the room from which he pushed off to finally land on the mattress and fall asleep near instantly. It wouldn't be until much later that he would remember his bags were still on the train.
    * * *
    The next day, he went to school where he met the two rather...eccentric teachers that would apparently be teaching him before being dismissed for lunch.

    Thank god I have the weird one, he thought, I don't know how I'd deal with a sane teacher like I had last year.

    Being the sort to keep to himself, Keyblade Spirit went to the roof and sat behind the stairway enclosure after buying his lunch.

    The staff meeting in the morning had...quite frankly, confused Tale quite a bit. This "Dr. Kitty" was a truly terrifying woman.

    He fought back a wave of revulsion at the memory as he ambled through a hallway. His head suddenly cocked as he started to hear a violin over the sound of the Kingdom Hearts music on his MP3 player. He removed his headphones and glanced around, searching for the source.

    Eventually, he located a small courtyard, where one of his new classmates sat with a violin, a quiet melody filling the air. As much as he would have loved to stay and listen, he knew musicians liked their alone time (he would know, being one), and he was kind of hungry anyway.

    Ah, where was the cafeteria again...?

    He wandered for a bit, starting to fret (he was already lost? Seriously?), until he remembered that there was a map of the school in his backpack. "Well, now I just feel stupid," he murmured to himself as he extricated the map from the jumble of half-started stories and sketches in his bag. "I wonder what there is to eat?"

    Entering the room, Tale's eyes were quick to recognize Excasr--he'd seen him around in a few parts of town and had thought him rather nice, although he hadn't expected to ever meet him again, let alone at school. He figured the least he could do was go say hi.

    Fire eventually got tired of waiting for her roommates who didn't seem to show up at the moment. So she just decided to screw it and go to sleep as she was already tired. Forget manners. Sleep was important. Though try as she might, she couldn't sleep soundly in a new place, not to mention when she wasn't in REM sleep, she had semi-sensitive hearing. Regardless of the night of "rest", Fire looked forward to the first day and seeing how Dr. Kitty would be like. She was shocked and surprised at her behavior. Mortified that she had a teacher she couldn't take seriously. Oh god, I wish I was a year younger to be taught be Professor Mish. At least she seems like she could teach some relevant information...god damn my luck... cursed Fire mentally. At last, it was lunchtime, and Fire was relieved that "class" was over. Even if Dr. Kitty wasn't the least bit embarrassed by her behavior, Fire felt embarrassed for her. Yawning, she walked to the end of the line for school lunch not really paying attention to much at all, her eyes droopy and apathetic.

    As I was walking down to the lunch hall, I was thinking about the 'meeting' we had with the teachers. Both teachers seem so nice. Plus Dr. Mish, my teacher, is really attractive... I then let out a slight chuckle. After that, I finally made it into the lunch hall. Hm... let's see if I can try and make some new friends... or maybe find my roommates. After taking a few steps, I stumbled on my feet, looking like a complete fool. Oh damn... I hope no one noticed... I started to blush.

    OC: Well, it was a beautiful summer's day and I was sitting on the steps, reading. The sun was shining throught the front door and making me rather sleepy. So I put down my book and took a nap. It also helps that the stairs were carpeted at the time.

    IC: Loxare looked around the lunch hall. Most of the tables were full to bursting, but she had noticed one in the corner that was largely unoccupied. Hoisting her lunch bag over her shoulder (it was heavier than all of her new textbooks combined), she made her way towards the table. The rise and fall of sounds in the hall - the chatter, forks scraping plates, footfalls, both gentle and heavy - was strangely comforting. She put her bag down on the table with a satisfying thump and started unpacking. She wondered if anyone would sit with her.
