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.

[Mortal peril, pfffft. That shit ain't nothin' to a girl like this.]

Yeesh, you foreigners sure do have weird-ass names. But fuck it, Feliks it is. At least until I come up with a nickname I like better. Maybe "Fee-Fee" or "Flicks".

[He shrugs, drumming on a nearby notebook with two of his paluszki; they briefly turn into drumsticks, while he's thinking of them that way, then back again when he gets bored of that and eats them after all.]

Pfft, whatever works? Fee-Fee's a little weird, though, it's kinda more a 'fay' sound or whatever.

Yeah, it doesn't really have a nice ring to it anyway. I'll probably stick with Flicks--

[Wait a bloody second...okay, that was pretty damn interesting. Actually fuck that, she's really never seen anything like it before. Bad Girl's face lights up, a sly smirk crawling up her face.]

Holy shit! Now there's something you don't see everyday!

[He grins, obviously pleased with the reaction. Yes, feed his ego! Feeed iiit!]

Totally badass, right?

[He picks up a stuffed animal, and turns it into a very small, very purple, but nonetheless otherwise real or real-seeming bear. Then puts a stick of paluszki that he turned into a sword in its tiny, clawed hand... and his cell phone holder on its head, where it becomes a little bitty badass pirate hat. PERFECT. It struts around his bed, sort of aimlessly, and Feliks thinks it looks a little sad without a ship, so obviously he has to make his bed into a very small ship for his pirate-bear.]

[...This calls for a wardrobe change, too, he thinks. His shirt turns into a ruffly blouse and waistcoat, and his pajama bottoms to a fluffy, vaguely steampunk-y skirt.]


Like, there you go, Wojtek! [He might have... forgotten he had an audience. He appears to be talking to the bear.]

[You know, most people would would inform Feliks that he was making a complete ass of himself in front of an audience. Specifically, his soon-to-be teacher. However, Bad Girl is not most people. If her little Flicks wants to make an ass out of himself she's going to let him.

Actually, she's going to do one better. She's going to grab another beer, get comfortable, and watch this shit like it was the world series of baseball. Eventually though, it does start to get boring.]


Hey Captain Ahab, you done sailing the seven seas?
