SOPHOMORE SEANCE

Micah St. Clair proposes a seance in the woods with his classmates. Despite teachers re-emphasizing the ban on the Grotto only a few days before, sophomore students sneak out after dinner to make their way to the Grotto. Everyone is warned to avoid attracting attention from non-sophomores or getting caught. ALSO BRING YOUR COOLEST SEANCE CLOTHING GUYS WE'VE GOT TO SET THE MOOD!!!!!

In the middle of the Grotto clearing, Micah's thrown down blankets over the snow, and conjured two small tables. One table has lit candles for mood lighting and a bowl of burning herbs (or like, whatever, Micah grabbed something nice-smelling from the greenhouse). The other has a Ouija board and planchette.

Everyone who wants to COMMUNE WITH THE FOREST SPIRIT is asked to gather around the table and lightly place their fingers on the planchette. One person asks a question at a time, so as not to confuse THE SPIRITS. They can stay and ask questions until the prefects (hi Ree!!!!) determine that it's nearing curfew and everyone needs to go back to camp.

THE RULES

SOPHOMORES ONLY. No snitching and no party crashers! :(((

NO JOURNALS. We're setting an atmosphere here!!!! This also means that everyone is FORBIDDEN from discussing the seance with anyone outside of the sophomore class (although of course Micah can't actually enforce this).

TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY or get out of the circle! You're going to ruin the ~~supernatural vibes~~ they've got going here.

DON'T PUSH THE PLANCHETTE. We're supposed to be communing here!!! (That said, if a character is trying to push for a specific answer, just say so, but for the sake of fairness, I'll be limiting how many times anyone can manipulate the planchette.)

YOU CAN ASK ANYTHING YOU WANT. No making fun of anyone's question!!! Everyone's allowed to ask a ghost if there's anyone who wants to kiss them. :(

» ArrivalS: For making plans, sneaking out, or greeting your friends at the Grotto.

» The Ouija Board: WHERE ALL THE ACTION IS!!!!

» Observers: For those of you who are total wusses and don't want to MAYBE get possessed.

» Departures / Did You Get Into Trouble?: Apparently it's against the rules to sneak out to the Grotto????

Ana has gone from 'completely chill' to eyes wide as she looks at the planchette. It's not so much fear, because hello she's a Coppertale, but...well she can't really identify the emotion.

"Who aren't we supposed to trust?" Ana asks, though she's not nearly specific enough in her questioning and is it even really her turn to ask a question? She gives Micah a look. "You know that's not a thing."

	Cole still seems more confused than scared and points out slowly, "Anon...always asks if he's our friend. That's what he asked me. Does this mean don't trust Anon?" It doesn't seem to occur to him to ask this to the board, just his friends gathered around the table. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I mean, we have a lot of friends. We're like the MOST POPULAR kids in school, my dudes." Micah looks between Susana and Cole. "Do either of you want to ask the board a question?" (Reply to this) (Parent)

	"But the board already said what's in the woods is benevolent - don't we all just kind of assume the anon writer lives in the woods or something?" Solomon whispers. "But the anon does say they're our friend a lot." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cole considers this, hesitating and seeming very much like he's jut going to keep his mouth shut. But there's something he's not certain about. He asks, "But....there's more than on entity in the woods, isn't there? How do we know which one it meant?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm certainly in no rush to trust anon," Calvin mutters, huddled under his cloak, probably between Cole and Ree. But he's in this now. In response to Cole's question, he speaks up. "We should ask." By that he means someone else. He hasn't touched the planchette once. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cole looks at Calvin, then nods obediently. He can do that. (Reply to this) (Parent)
