Boarding School RP
Boink, RP time
So when I joined the CB one of these was happening, and apparently it was a thing. An RP. That took place at a boarding school. Here is what I'm pretty sure is the link to that: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/inkwell/node/464809
Seemed pretty cool to me, so... I'm gonna start one of my own I guess
Here's the general idea:
The RP takes place at a boarding school called Olive Autumn's School for Extraordinary Children. The school is for grades 7-12, with a middle school section (grades 7-8) and a high school section (grades 9-12). It is for children who do not fit in in some way, perhaps because they are not well behaved or are especially smart, and could not be provided with what they needed at a regular school, so were sent to OAS. Olive Autumn, who the school is named for, died many years ago, and some students believe they still haunt the school.
Your character can be a member of the staff (teacher, janitor, cafeteria worker, ect.) or a student. 3 charries or less per person, please!
Here is the form:
Name:
Gender/pronouns:
Age:
If they are a student or teacher, what grade do they teach/what grade are they in?:
Apperance:
Student or staff:
Why were they sent to OAS?:
Personality:
Other:
This'll start on Thursday, but anyone can join anytime. I'll post my characters later. Here's hoping this doesn't die two weeks in :,)

Anyone feel like trying to connect with Kieran?
(November 3, 2022 - 3:09 pm)
Kieran
The kids are loud. Too loud for his sensitive ears. Kieran's hands start to get sweaty. He shakes them to dry, but the sweat clings like a tick to warm skin. The bodies press against him and jostle him to the side, but he shifts his feet so he is immovable. The sights around him blur, and he quickly ducks into an empty classroom.
Out of the hustle and bustle, Kieran finds a spot in the far corner of the room. He presses his back to the wall and slides down, ending up sitting on the floor. He can hear his heart racing, breath coming in short strokes, and the voices in his head.
He masks his face into an expression that he hopes says, "Don't bother me. I don't like anyone.". He rubs his hands on the cold floor and then holds them up to his face. To Kieran, his hands look shaky, but he's been through this so many times to know that really they are still. He sighs.

I'll put Allisters up first tomorrow. @Wildsong is Kieran shipped?
(November 4, 2022 - 5:37 pm)
Kieran is open to shipping with other guys.
(November 5, 2022 - 6:51 am)
Oh :7 okie. I was gunna say we maybe could ship Kamryn and Kieran. I think a converstaion between both of them would go something like this: Kam:Here, take ____. But not because I like you. Kieran: Well I don't like you! Kam: WELL NEITHER DO I!
Allister
Kamryn was sitting next so someone. Nevermore also looking the persons direction. The person next her was stammering some thing, and they looked kinda scared. "Yo! Kamryn!" I called. She looked up, glaring. Her face softened a bit, but not enough to look happy. "Oh, Allister. I didn't know you were going here."
"Oh...well. You know. My..pranks."
She nodded. "Who's this?" I asked, pointing to the person beside her. "Oh, Poe. I use the pronouns They/them". I nodded, bowing. They waved their hands "No no, don't bow". "Oh. Well I 'm Japanese American. So my family consideres it polite." I scratched the back of my head. 'But uh. I'm Allister Carter"...

They could still have that conversation, even if there's no shipping.

-Roxana
Roxana went up to her room. A little flutter of excitement made her feel livelier than ever. She skipped into her room, forgetting that she was sixteen now and maybe too old for skipping.
It was pretty! she thought in surprise A bed stood against the wall, with an eiderdown coverlet and embroidered pillowcases. Over it was a picture - hills and a river winding through them. The floor was wooden and had a bright orange woollen rug over it. Curtains hung at the window. A desk stood in the corner - ooh, a huge desk with lots of drawers! That would be perfect for storing her notebooks and pencils in. Roxana walked over to the window and looked out. The driveway of the school wound away through the trees, and the beautiful front lawn stretched out like a carpet. The gardener was there, pottering around with the roses that grew next to the drive.
"Oh, it's beautiful," Roxana sighed.
Well, whatever OAS was like, her room was perfect.
-Marina
Marina went out to the garden as soon as she had left her bag in her new room. Already she felt anxious and frightened. She was all alone with no one, no one, to take care of her.
Not that anyone had ever taken care of her, she realized with a sudden flash of insight. Her mother had never really been interested in her. Her father had hardly known she existed. Her grandparents? They had considered her a failure from the start.
"Send Marina to OAS if you like, Stella," Grandfather had told Marina's mother. "But it won't do any good. Not with her anxiety and OCD."
Marina lifted her chin. She would show her grandfather that it would do some good.
-Scarlette
A new school year. A new batch of students to deal with, coax along, and play mother to. Scarlette sighed as she sorted the textbooks and put them away in the shelf. Would it really ever help anyone? Or was she just being silly, trying to help a lot of kids who didn't want to be helped anyway?
Well... maybe it would. Maybe this year there would be some better students, who didn't cheat, lie, and generally defy all her attempts. Maybe.
She would wait and see.
---------------------------------------------
Anyone want to have their characters interact with Marina or Scarlette? Marina's open to shipping with boys, as is Roxana, and Marina will probably be in need of a friend as well if anyone's interested! :)
(November 4, 2022 - 8:19 pm)
Charlie can interact with either of them. Also, can anyone tell me if anything important has happened yet? Cause i kinda fell behind.
(November 5, 2022 - 3:38 pm)
hey @Poinsettia,mabye Amity could be friends with Marina,like,mabye roomates?
they meet in the garden?
(November 5, 2022 - 3:44 pm)
Any possible roomates for Kieran?
(November 6, 2022 - 6:55 am)
Would anyone like to be Roommates with Kamryn or Allister. (Warning, Nevermore wakes up early and caws)
(November 6, 2022 - 12:53 pm)
How about Allister and Kieran for roomates?
(November 7, 2022 - 3:10 pm)
Hi everyone!
@Pancake: Okay, I guess he can interact with Marina! And nothing really has happened yet, as far as I know - everyone's just gotten to the school and is getting acquainted with each other.
@Luna: Yes, Marina can be friends with Amira.
@Wildsong: I had kind of planned that Marina and Roxana would have their own rooms, but either one can interact with Kieran.
Also, Scarlette, who as far as I can make out is the only teacher character in the whole RP, can interact with anyone.
(November 6, 2022 - 10:58 am)
Amity not amira,amira is someone else
but yay!
(November 6, 2022 - 8:00 pm)
Oh I'm so sorry, I meant Amity.
I don't have any time to write anything for Marina right now, sadly - would you like to start off the conversation between Marina and Amity? Marina's out in the school gardens at the moment.
