Felicity said, with a frosty yet playful glance at her friend
Lol was that pun intentional? XD Idk if I’ve told you that her full name is Felicity Frost.

@loopylin oh yea triggering is totally going to be intentional. You’ll see. They do it in their own special way.
Soooo about my folk dance: I haven’t choreographed the whole thing, I just have a general idea.
There are three parts: the swirly part, the line dance-ish part, and the other swirly part. The swirly part get’s it all started at the beginning. There’s a short intro of hype mandolin-fiddle music, and then the whole music group, with drums, bagpipes, more fiddles/mandolins, and so forth, comes in to signal the start. Everyone swings their partner around once or twice, then changes with someone immediately afterwards. This keeps going for an undeterminable amount of time, until the music changes. It gets more like a beat, with less flowy music and more foot-stomping. At this point, whoever everyone’s matched up with, even if it’s not their original partner (especially if it’s not their original partner), that’s who they do this next part with. The couples hold both hands, (lady on the right, because the lady is always right) and step back, right, forward, left, spin once, repeat, until the normal music comes back in. Then they twirl with each other around the dancefloor until the fiddle does a solo. That’s the signal for everyone to stop when they’re ready. The music continues for a minute or two, and then the dance is officially over. What Kate and Brian did on their first dance was they didn’t remember the signal, and then danced up until the very end. Eke, it was very romantic. I know, you can judge me, but this is the stuff that goes on in my mind.
Like I said, it’s not completely worked out, so it likely won’t work. But it’s a good dance that mixes the whole dance floor, unlike waltzes, line dances, anything like that.
Have you listened to any electro-swing? You should listen to Caravan Palace. They’re one of my favorite bands. :]
I’m literally SO into electro swing right now it’s INSANE!! It’s so energetic and quirky and addicting!! I was going to share some of my favorites on the character playlist strand! I’ve only listened to a bit of Caravan Palace but I want to try more of their songs.
Dance practice is probably a good idea after shopping. It will give us extra time for GodlyFantasy to come back.
Good idea 😛

Yep, that was 100% intentional XDD
Sounds cool! Very loose, if that makes sense. I can imagine totally forgetting the next part if my partner was interesting enough XD I’ve line-danced, and sometimes me and my partner will get into an over invested conversation and forget everything around us XD

@people
What do the shops/outside of the school look like? I wanna do an rp for the twins but I have no idea what the rest of the town looks like. Is this a modern city/town?
Oh I love mixers! Cuz if I’m too awkward trying to talk to one partner, I can just try again with the next one. XD That sounds like a fun dance.

Oh I’m not judging. That sounds like a cool scene. Nothing wrong with a little romance. 🙂
Yesssss I love electro swing so much, but I try to share it with people and they just find it weird. I think it totally fits Seb’s aesthetic too.

Okay sorry XD Um… yeah I could see Marek and Eleanor getting into a fight, but like Loopy they would have to be tempted a lot
But Eleanor would have to be tempted less, Marek you’d have to punch him or hurt somebody else before he’ll get involved
Eleanor it would have to be hurting someone else or trying to touch her in a violent way (If that makes sense, she’s a little more rough)
Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it
-ThorneAnd I don’t think all three of them at once would make a lot of sense since they don’t know each other or anything

@whom-it-may-concern
Time for the Sans brothers
Sansfoy
The tall Saracen strode triumphantly through the halls, a nervous, short, brown-haired girl in tow. Sansfoy stopped when Sansloy approached him. Loy had two black eyes, a ripped sleeve, and a bloody nose.
“Brother Sansloy, what ill has befallen you that you take on this monstrous visage?” Foy asked, concerned.
“If by that, you mean ‘why am I all beat up’, it’s quite simple. I challenged an anglo-saxon to single combat for his lady fair. I won.”
Foy was still confused. “And why are you like this? Where is your lady?”
“She clobbered me and ran.”
“How terrible. But if you allowed yourself to be ‘clobbered’ by a girl, then I suppose you deserve it. As you can see, I was much more successful.”
“With what?” Loy asked.
“With a lady, of course! Do you not see–” Foy looked around. The brown-haired girl was gone. Foy slapped his face with his hand and grimaced.
“By the way,” inquired Loy, as he rubbed his sore back, “where’s Joy?”
From a closet next to the two came some unitigible noises. Thump thump. “Mmmph! Mm mm pphh!”
Foy opened the door. In the back sat Sansjoy, trussed up like a chicken with a gag over his mouth. “Mmmph!”
As Foy untied him, Loy asked, “What happened to you?”
Joy spat out dust bunnies and replied. “I challenged a winged guy to a fight. I didn’t account for him flying. He and his whole rabid family descended upon me, literally, and here I am. I heard what happened you both of you. I think that splitting up doesn’t work.”
“Well, seeing as the last time we split up, Foy got killed, I had to go the underworld to heal from injuries, and you got attacked by satyrs, I’d say we need to work together more,” concluded Sansloy.
Foy snorted. “This time, it was the reverse. I got left, Joy got the worst of it, and you got the middle of the spectrum. Again.” The three began making their way down the hall. There was not a soul in sight. All gone shopping, Foy thought. “Well, let’s bide our time, and not get into any trouble, until Brian shows up. And this time, we show no mercy.”
Joy sighed. “We showed no mercy last time, and see how that went.”
“Fine, we show mercy. But until then–”
He didn’t get to finish. For at that moment, an hand of enormous proportions reached out of a dark doorway, and silently snatched all three brothers away. No one heard their yells.
* * *
Sorry if that was a bit dark, but they’re all ok and the thing that got them is a good guy. So yeah, that’s the Saracen Siblings. They’ll be back, don’t worry.

@everyone
I’m going to introduce them
Eleanor
Her brown hair was styled in delicate curls that were pinned to the side of her head. She wore a knee-length floral patterned dress and a brown bag of all her belongings.
She glanced around the busy and crowded school, she could feel her back tense up. She ached with nervousness, but she hid it all with a clever yet pretty smile.
Her black high heels made a tapping noise as she walked down the school hall, she looked at her papers to see what room she was in, and with a deep breath, she opened it.
(Y’all I don’t know where Lena and Eleanor are staying so if anyone has an open room then they can do the next RP)
Lena
Lena glanced at her brother, his tall structure made her feel somewhat safe in the giant school. But there was still a lot of doubt.
“I suppose we split up now and find our rooms,” Lena stated.
Marek nodded and then gave a smile to his sister. “You’ll be fine, how bad can a boarding school be?”
“From what I hear, a nightmare,”
Marek chuckled. “You should go meet your roommates,”
“Fine,” Lena gave a sigh as she grabbed her suit case and walked off, finding her room in a matter of minutes.
she opened the door to see a girl, she had a floral dress and brown curled hair, very pretty.
“Hi,” Lena manged a small smile, but nothing more. She was never one for making conversation.

-ThorneWait a sec. Who did Loy attack? I can’t tell because it’s just referenced.

@smiley i don’t think my character Ellie ever got roommates…they can room with her! <3
@freedomwriter76
Perfect thank you
Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it
-Thorne@calyhuge yep!
My raptor, Beta, is based off the one of the same name who appeared in the third Jurassic World movie. So no feathers on her, whether she should have had them or not. She is supposed to hunt alongside her mother, who is not here right now, so I’m thinking her “pack” would end up being her friends. And yes, I do remember the toe claw.
I’d love if you still did a study on my dragons–like what you think of how they’d fly, breathe ice (because these ones are ice dragons, not fire ones), etc.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
@smiley Skylar and Loki are too funny. (It doesn’t help I’ve been watching Loki’s TV show lately and have been getting a semi-weekly dose of his personality.) ooh, and i love the names Lena and Marek.
@calyhuge lol I don’t like boys staring at me either. I can take it if they’re obviously fictional though. Like, cartoony guys or someone I know is fictional, let’s say a Marvel character like the ones that constantly show up on moodboards around here, I can tolerate.Where'd I get ya this time? The liver?
