This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the game opens, 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.

"You wouldn't have, it's my first day."

She took his left hand with her right and sort of gave it a friendly squeeze as and alternative to shaking, and then left it free to get back to what seemed to be very important... tapping.

She wasn't even going to pretend to have any amount of understanding of what he was doing, much preferring to look at him than trying to get a glimpse on what was happening on his computer screen. Cute boy or flickering screen? Yeah, unless her life depended on staying focused on the screen that was an easily answered question.

Much as she cheated with her jumping around in time, she had somewhere decided on a rule that had been instilled in her even before she developed her power. She didn't talk about people. She didn't mention who she should talk to or hit on or anything like that. So she found herself wondering briefly if the future self who'd given her the run down about the school grounds liked this Alex guy. If they ever even talked.

"Julie, nice to meet you. I just transferred from France."

Which, when she said it out loud, sounded about as crazy impulsive as it had been.
