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.

Around. ( He doesn't bother to look at the other boy as he starts sorting out his pile. Amidst the junk are some shiny wrappers, a zippo lighter, some spoons, someone's glasses, and some shiny rocks. )

The glasses, too?

[Going over there to crouch down next to the pile.]

No one was wearing them. ( Thus making them fair game.]

Maybe they were taking a shower.

[Picking the glasses up and putting them on his nose.] How do I look?

The glasses weren't in a bathroom. ( He says that like that makes it all right that he took them.

He stares at the other boy for a moment before shrugging.
) Like a scholarly son of a bitch? Like a man that can just walk into a lecture hall and drone on about boring things and put everyone in the room to sleep.
