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.

Thank you very much! [He slide next to him and cracked open up his book. He would have stayed quiet oh yes, but he just had to open his mouth again.]

Are you a new student here?

[man_who_would_be_king]

[Of course. No one seemed to be smart in this place. Reading a book generally implied the person wanted to be left alone, not have small talk forced on them.]

Are you going to read or ask me questions?

[airbrain]

O-Oh yes, I just wanted to know if you were new here since I don't remember your face.

[He shuts up after that, going back to reading. He looks a bit like a dog with a tail between his legs.]

[man_who_would_be_king]

[He notices that look and narrows his eyes. How pathetic to see someone react that way immediately, not even a hint of a spine. At least Keith hadn't wasted Dio's time and showed that he was useless quickly.]

Is that your response? You're pathetic, no better than a worthless dog.

[airbrain]

[Dio's response sends chills up his back and he can't help but retort a little.]

H-hey that's not a very nice thing to say.

[man_who_would_be_king]

Being nice doesn't get you anywhere. [He closes his book and sets it aside.] Your sniveling is disgusting.

[airbrain]

[Keith grits his teeth, but keeps his calm.] On the contrary, being a nice person makes everyone around you happy, and that's what I strive for as a staff member of this fine institution.

[man_who_would_be_king]

You let others walk all over you in the name of being nice, don't you? You seem like the type to be a doormat and never stand up for yourself. Pathetic.

[airbrain]

No I don't. I simply like keeping everyone pleased! Whenever everybody is pleased, I feel at ease with myself.

[man_who_would_be_king]

You're still a doormat, then, and more pathetic than I originally thought. [A sneer came to Dio's face. He knew better than to start a physical fight with one of the staff, though, but wouldn't stop him from being verbally cruel.]

[airbrain]

If you continue to insult me, I have no choice but to write you up.

[man_who_would_be_king]

Oh, so someone else will talk to me, then? [A short laugh.] You have me shaking in fear. [Dio stands up and begins to walk away.]
