This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the applications open, see what clicks. Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun! Feel free to consult the institute tour and dorm guide for setting info. We also encourage you to check out the "!!event" tag on the IC comms to brush up on the story so far.

"I'd like that," he said, offering his arm. Of the many possible words that might be used to describe him, shy was nowhere to be found in that list. And while he'd gotten a campus tour already, Lorna might emphasize different areas of the school on her tour. A refresher didn't hurt.

All thoughts of getting to math class on time were already right out the window, but he reasoned that it was all in the name of learning his way around and starting off open to making new friends, just like his therapist encouraged him to be.

(ooc: Want to wrap it up here? We can assume they were both horribly late for class that day)

He was offering her his arm, like a gentleman. Lorna did not have the heart to tell him that she meant for the tour to be later. She had to get to class, after all, and...

And...

She could feel her heart start to race right before she took his arm, resting her hand against his bicep. He was just so warm. Oh, and he smelled nice, too. Well, if her teacher was cross with her, Lorna was just doing her duty to show a new student around the school. This was making him feel more welcome, right?

"Well, on the left we have a science lab, and to your right is a very good likeness of a Monet..."

(ooc: Sounds perfect!)
