The Tiberius J. Swann Education Facility

Who: Karaoke peoples!
When: Friday, later in the evening AFTER DRESS REHEARSAL.
Where: The bar Astrid and Keagan's karaoke party is at.
What: THE MUSHIEST MOST AWESOME THREAD EVER IN THE CREATION OF THREADS. WHAT.

"Hey, everybody," Astrid giggled as she sidled up to the mic, tapping it for everyone's attention. She was a little tipsy. Okay, no, way more than tipsy, but she'd been doing a really good job of being social over the last hour since karaoke had started. The thing had started while Duncan still had his kids in dress rehearsal, so imagine her surprise when he showed and Adora hadn't seen him yet. "So, okay, next up..." She giggled a little more, as if to a secret only she knew. "We have my favorite Il Profesore to siiiing. Mister Boyaaard..." She said with flare as she moved off the stage and went to go plop down in the first seat she could find, which was next to Summer.

Who: Rae and Robbie
Where: Rae's room
When: Evening
What: Rae invited Robbie over for movie watching, after a week of public lunches and dinners scattered throughout.
Rating: PG-13 at best.

Rae was nervous. Which sucked, because generally she was too apathetic to care about anything enough to be nervous. Robbie, though, was slowly chipping away at her apathy with his good humor, optimistic attitude, and his smile. Mostly his smile. It was infectious, and Rae was pretty much a victim. She admitted it willingly to herself because there was no absolute harm in doing so.

In fact, there was no visible "harm" to Robbie at all. One date, 3 lunch dates, and an in-cafeteria dinner later and he hadn't even tried to kiss her. There had been hand holding in the halls, sure, some playful shoulder nudges and pinches and a hug-slash-arm-around-shoulders embrace, but he was pretty darn....harmless.

Which was why she had invited him over tonight, where she knew she would be alone all night, to watch crap on DVDs in her room. There was no where to sit but her bed, really -- or her computer chair (uncomfy!). Cassie's bed was a no go; it had far too much crap on it to serve as a bed, much less a sitting area. So they would sit on her bed. Next to each other. And... see what happened. Would he attempt it? Did she want him to? How harmless was too harmless?

Then there was a knock, and she realized thinking more on the matter was out of the question, because he was here.

Ushering him inside she was red-earred, her eyeliner a dark contrast to the paleness of her skin. She was dressed as she usually did: tights here, frilly skirt there, but was wearing a black and white star-patterned hoodie over a tank top decorated in hand-created paint splatters. "Hey," she mumbled, watching him come in. "What's up."

Who: Cassie and Rae
When: Late 11pm +
Where: Their Room
What: Rae gets back from her weekend with Keagan.

Considerably past curfew Rae lumbered through their door with a duffel bag, weekender bag, and a purse. She blinked as soon as she got a good look at the place. It was a shithole. What the hell had Cassie done? She couldn't even FIND Cassie in all this mess!

When she heard keyboard clicking she angled her head over. "Cassie!" Her face split into a grin, and she dumped all her bags onto her bed before gliding over to her friend. "What's up."

Who: Keagan & Rae
Where: Foxwoods Casino in CT
When: Saturday and Sunday
What: Escaping the school to gambol, have fun, and escape issues of the moment

( Huh. You're like a character from Anne Rice but less gross and pedophilic. STILL IN PROGRESS! )

Who: Robbie and Rae.
What: Bumping into each other.
Where: Cafeteria.
When: Monday lunchtime.

So today was that legendary first day at a new school. It had been quite a while since he was in this situation, and it was the first time he'd ever been that weird new kid entering part way through the year. To make it worse he really didn't know his way around at all! He'd arrived yesterday and he had this morning off as well but he hadn't got around to exploring, getting distracted by his laptop instead.

The cafeteria he knew though, vaguely, so with his first class coming up he went to go grab some lunch. Messenger bag slung across his chest with laptop, paper, pens etc in, he walked through the cafeteria with a sandwich, chips and drink balanced in his hands. Across the room he spotted a girl with the back ripped out of her t-shirt to reveal amazing red dragonfly wings, which must have been the reason he wasn't really paying attention to what was infront of him until he banged into someone. "Ack! Sorry!" He apologised in his pretty thick Tennessee accent as he turned his attention back to the girl he'd knocked.

Who: Xander and Rae
Where: Girls Dorm
When: Late Saturday Night
What: Random drunken Rae run-in
Rating: PG-13 tops more than likely.

( Please don't eat me! I'm not a meal! )

Who: Any students!
What: Cassie's pyjama party!
Where: Taking over a fair amount of the student housing.
When: Saturday night, just sort of gradually taking hold from about 5pm onwards? Pizza ordered about 8.
((OOC: Yes this is an awful start. I'm soooooorry!))

Arc had decided to add a more party feel to the student areas in honour of Cassie's birthday and so there were a lot of streamers all over the place and there were various munchies and drinks spread through the student lounge. The alcohol seemed to be around, some of it in the fridge, some hidden in rooms just incase a staff member appeared. From about 6pm a bottle of ready made cosmo was to be found next to the chaos demon at almost all times, whether she was watching a film, wandering around talking to people, dancing, playing video games, whatever. For her part the birthday girl was walking around in short shorts, a grey long sleeved top and thigh high socks which admittedly was sort of what she wore for pyjamas really.

Bad supernatural films were playing in the girl's common room. In the student lounge the large screen tv was being used for the games console which contained Guitar Hero III for most of the night since it was Cassie's favourite game although there seemed to be Wii stuff around for things like Mario Kart and other games as well.

Who: Fox and Rae
When: Tuesday, April 15, 2008, dinner time
Where: Fox's room
What: Fox comes back all mopey and finds...Rae?


( Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun )

Who: Everyone!
What: Astrid's Birthday Party
Where: Tunnels under the Rec Center
When: Starting 9pm
Rating: Z for Zaniness!


Lyle was not new to this. He had thrown many a bash, and hopefully he would throw many more in the future. It was his firm belief that nothing drew together a community like a party, and it seemed he was right. They had a dj (and some "borrowed" equipment from the music room, hopefully Professor Witt would not notice or mind), decorations, cake, and enough liquor to sedate a herd of zebras. This was going to be a great party simply because Lyle demanded it to be so. He needed this distraction, a lot of people did. Lately things had been sucking like whoa.

He'd told Astrid to come somewhat early so she could scope out her party room, and also to kind of play hostess since, regardless of Lyle organizing everything, it was her event. He was glad when he saw her, smiling at her outfit. His own was a ridiculous geeky nightmare. "Hey, Astrid," he said pleasantly. "Happy birthday. Liquor's over there, food's there, aaaaaaannnnddddd..." He pulled her present from under the drink table. "I didn't wrap it," he shrugged apologetically. "It would look pretty awful if I did. Anyway. There's a couple rolls of Smarties in there too." Slipping behind the bar (which was just a table with coolers of liquor behind it), Lyle looked at her expectantly. "What's your poison?"

Who: Rae and Keagan
Where: Halls
When: Early afternoon, before Duncan's play rehearsal
What: Rae runs into Keagan, post breakup w/ Astrid


Rae wasn't doing much this Saturday. Her weekends were generally up to her; she hadn't joined any clubs since arriving at TJS. She wanted to bug Jack, but she knew Jack was probably not even going to wake up until after 1.00pm. She had gone down to the cafeteria to acquire brunch, or something like it. On her way back out, as she was piling all the crap she'd bought into her purse, she caught sight of Keagan approaching.

Oh, awkward! Rae had heard most if not all of their fight the night before! She knew why they had broken up. Keagan was some fucking creatures that lived to be thousands of years old. He was older than anyone at the school. Ugh, odd. That meant he probably knew everything about everyone on a less personal level. How did someone like that entertain themselves by being at a school filled with troubled young people? Keagan didn't seem like the sort of person to take pleasure out of others pain; Rae was pretty certain of that. Even if he had lied to Astrid, it wasn't because he secretly enjoyed doing so. She had met fake bastards before -- she didn't believe Keagan was one of them.

So because of this Rae stopped and looked up at him, her generally blank expression now full of confusion and pity. He looked kinda messed up. "Hey, man."

Who: Matt and Rae
When: Around 4pm on Thursday
Where: Supernatural History classroom
What: Matt decides that Supernatural History is never gonna be a normal class.

Matt's week had been pretty laid back so far. Well, with the exception of helping out Summer on Tuesday. He hadn't felt like he was of much help there since she was only sleeping, but apparently she and the two other girls who were with her had thought differently. That was definitely an interesting way to start things off at a new school.

He was trying not to think of any of that though because right now, he was trying to concentrate on taking notes of Professor Witt's lecture. It had been a while since he had been in a classroom, but he seemed to be picking back up on it quickly.

Looking back up from his notes to the board, he caught sight of a brunette who was facing in his direction. Was she staring at him?

Who: Rae and Fox
When: 12:45
Where: Rae's room, cafeteria?
What: Fox gets stuff smeared on his tat and lunch!


Fox was happy that his tattoo no longer stung when he showered, but it was scabbing over and looking gross. Not much like the cool design that Rae had drawn, but it'd get there. Eventually. Heading to Rae's with the jar of salve in hand, he knocked on her door. It was just past quarter after and he figured he'd given her enough time to walk over from class and set her books down. Besides, she wanted to have lunch and he didn't want to hold her up any more than he already was.

His stomach growled ferociously, a reminder than he hadn't eaten for several hours. Since breakfast, but that was a given. It was lunchtime and he was hungry. A growing man needed his pizza. As the door finally opened, Fox grinned. "Hey there, Slim."

 'Who: Cassie and Rae
Where:  Their room
When: Late 11pm+
What: Rae gets a weird phonecall.


After she hung up with Fox, Rae braced herself and looked over at Cassie. Part of her wanted to reach over and pinch the grin off her roommate's face while the other part of her wanted to smile to.

"Uhhhh, so like, I tell Fox T-T-Y-L online, and sign off, and he just called and is like ' You signed off without saying goodnight.' What the fuck?" She screwed up one upper lip. "Then I tell him I said talk to you later, and he's like 'I know. But I wanted to say goodnight. So good night...Rae.' AND HE HANGS UP."

She rolled her eyes. "What a psycho."

Who: Jack, Fox, Rae
Where: Living Room
When: Early afternoon
What: Guy Talk, before Rae joins. Awkwardness!

Jack was chowing down on a slice of pizza when Fox returned from getting a tattoo. He had texted Rae a nonchalant "where are you two?" earlier in the day and gotten a response. Jack was in the loop.
