RULES AND MEMES
Over the last week, a few things have been established about how detention and mail work at school! Here's that information for everyone:

Detention is served Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. It's not served on Fridays because Fridays are often irregular with monthly bonding. The staff is aware that some characters (cough cough Casper and Quinn cough) would probably rather serve detention than go to monthly bonding.

Detention takes place for 1-2 hours after dinner. What it entails depends on the teacher that gave it to you. If it's a sweeping detention assignment, such as with sledding, you default to your Head of House as the teacher overseeing what you serve and how.

Packages are magically screened when they arrive. There's a charm in place that detects alcohol, drugs, weapons, explosives, and other illegal materials. There is no way around this charm; it's exceptionally thorough. If the spell is set off, your character will be called into the lodge by their Head of House to open the package and see what caused the trouble. If it's something within the rules that just got caught in the wide net (cough medicine as alcohol, a new bow for Archery Club as a weapon), it'll pass. If it is contraband, it'll be returned to the sender. Kids will only get in trouble if it's blatantly obvious they're trying to sneak in contraband. Ms. Vector is harder than any of the others about this.

Letters without anything but paper in them can be dropped off straight to the tables by owls and ravens a la Hogwarts.

MINI MEME:
We did these a while ago, but we have so many new characters and players now! Let's re-introduce ourselves by answering some quick questions for fun~

Which Gooseberry house would you be in?
Which Hogwarts and Ilvermorny houses would your character(s) be sorted into?

At first I thought Ebonhide but I think the reality is that I'm a floppy fish. Ribbonfin for me, with a side of emotional perfectionist. :( Aaaaand I'm a Ravenclaw.

Diego would be Huffepuff/Pukwudgie
Reid would be Ravenclaw/Thunderbird
Calvin would be Slytherin(SHOCK)/ Horned Serpent
Rafael would be... a toss up between Gryffindor and Slytherin, but I'm going to say Slytherin/Horned Serpent

Bonus: Rafael was mere minutes away from making another ridiculous two page rules post after sledding, but then he spent the evening with Leo instead. Everyone thank Leo for making Rafael so much less obnoxious.

	I REALIZED THE OTHER DAY 3/4 OF MY CHARACTERS COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN SLYTHERIN, does this say something about us? IS THERE ANYTHING WRONG WITH WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT US? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	IT SAYS WE GET STUFF DONE, ALEX. IT SAYS NOTHING CAN STOP OUR CHARACTERS FROM ACHIEVING THEIR GOALS. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	except riley, flashing a shiny object at riley would stop her from achieving her goals (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Riley would fight you for saying that but she saw her reflection in the mirror and forgot about you (Reply to this) (Parent)

	As a Hufflepuff with Slytherin tendencies it says AWESOMENESS AND NOTHING ELSE. SHUSH. <3 (Reply to this) (Parent)

	But if Leo would also not discourage a two page rule post even a little, HOW MUCH IS HE HELPING, REALLY... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When Rafael realized Leo loved rules and regulations, too, and was supportive of him being a hardass, he had a serious oh no I really* like this guy* moment. It was romantic, okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Chris wants to make fun of both of them but he's too busy seducing Rosy with organized notes and binders (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rosmarinus 2016-12-09 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	Rosy asks Chris if he prefers college ruled or wide ruled paper. Then they both laugh bc who the fuck even uses wide ruled paper? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doyouevenlift 2016-12-09 05:39 pm UTC (link)
	Lmao I laughed ridiculously loud at this in front of people. Somebody needs to make fun of these dorks before Chris destroys his own reputation (Reply to this) (Parent)

	half of me is like "why are all of these characters mega nerds" and the other half of me is like "wait... do i only make spreadsheets to seduce people??????" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doyouevenlift 2016-12-10 09:33 am UTC (link)
	Idk but I am very seduced by your spreadsheets (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	oh good phew (Reply to this) (Parent)

	adorbs 2016-12-09 04:48 pm UTC (link)
	Aaah that is adorable :( Leo just thinks he wouldn't be able to judge himself or work as effectively without rules (figures) and that Rafael having the confidence/strength to enforce them like he does is so attractive. And he wants to support it. This should stop coming from addy I guess oops (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leoooooo ♥ Rafael's used to people being a little put off by him, or otherwise telling him to ease up, even if they like him. Whether or not it's strictly good ~~for the rest of their peers~~ that they encourage one another's more intense traits, Rafael is smitten. I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT MY FEELINGS HERE BUT I'M GONNA STOP MYSELF FROM GUSHING TOO MUCH. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	sunsoutgunsout 2016-12-10 09:34 am UTC (link)
	leo deserves an award but also i wish i'd seen that list of rules. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	firstposition 2016-12-10 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	it would have taken me all night to compose. rafael's mindset was NO ONE WILL EVER HAVE AN EXCUSE TO FEEL CONFUSED ABOUT THE RULES AGAIN BECAUSE I'M GOING TO WRITE ALL OF THEM DOWN (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rosy wants one of the rules to just be no more fucking crying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
