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?

THANK GOD FOR MY WALLET THAT THERE'S NOT TOO MUCH HUFFLEPUFF MERCH COMPARED TO GRYFFINDOR/SLYTHERIN.

I was three impulse clicks away from buying this Hufflepuff comforter for my bed when I realized that my bed is now our bed and I can't stand the thought of my Ultra-Slytherin boyfriend sleeping under it like a wolf in sheep's clothing. So now I'm seriously considering getting a second bed as a """"guest bed"""" (we never have guests) for my computer room just so I can have this.

	OMFG ALI. Ali. I literally had this same thought about a Gryffindor comforter. IM LITERALLY SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY AND THE ENEMY CANT SLEEP IN GRYFFINDOR STYLE. (Reply to this) (Parent)
