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.

[Ib, you are cool. Unlike a certain pyromaniac who shall remain anonymous.

As Kid is fixing up his portion of the room, he hears someone else moving furniture around. Immediately, he assumes someone is messing up his work AGAIN, but it turns out this girl appears to be...helping him? What?

...could it be that they are kindred spirits? Eh, probably not, but either way he appreciates the help. Giving her a small smile and a thumbs up, Kid continues to work on his own section first. After that, then he can help her with hers.]

[She returns the thumbs up and continues working in her own section.

... Maybe trying to move the heavy things first wasn't her brightest idea. But she'll continue anyway for the sake of helping others!]
almostsymmetrical: (That's some nice symmetry right there)

[Annnnnnd done!

Now that that's out of the way, Kid will be walking over toward Ib, with the tiniest of smiles.]


Not bad. Sure it needs a bit of work, but I think you've got the hang of this...more or less.

[That's enough talk, though. He's got to help her move these heavier items. TEAMWORK, AW YEAH!!!]

Thank you. My mother always said symmetry was very appealing to the eye... And I like helping other people!

[Ib, no, don't encourage him-- But! Now that the heavier items are getting moved, the task is going significantly quicker.]

Your mother certainly wasn't wrong. Symmetry is key; nothing is more beautiful than things in life being perfectly balanced.

[Alright, that's one piece of heavy furniture down. Now on to the next one!]

By the way, I don't believe I caught your name, Miss...?
