OPEN POST



the high school au meme

 

1. Post with your character with their name and series in the subject line. Optionally: include a small description of what they're like in the AU.

2. Roll 1-19.

or come up with your own scenarios.
3. ???

4. Play out high school AU times.

 

 

1. first day

Catch up with old friends, brave new teachers, fight your way through the sea of students, and hope you're in the right classroom. Oh, you're the new kid. Well, that's okay as long as you've got more than enough summer vacation anecdotes to fill ten pages of Times New Roman size 12, single-spaced.

 

2. first period

You're gonna be late! Or are you already there? Class hasn't started just yet, so chat it up or copy your classmate's homework before the teacher gets here.

 

3. lesson proper

You're probably diligently taking notes, looking out the window daydreaming or reciting in class, much to your teacher's delight - or dismay. Try not to be too obvious when counting down the minutes and pass that note as discreetly as possible.

 

4. faculty

Have a bone to pick with your terror math teacher. A crush on the cute chemistry teacher? There might be something you want to ask your homeroom teacher about. In any case, you plan on seeing a faculty member today. Or maybe they plan on seeing you!

 

5. lunch break

Man, you are starving. Hopefully, today's menu has something good. If the crowded cafeteria's not your thing, try the rooftop.

 

6. hooky

One of you is skipping class. You should try talking them out of it if that's your thing.

 

7. detention

What on earth did you do to get this? Oh well. Detention can't be that bad when you've got all these very nice, approachable model students around to talk to.

 

8. p.e.

Baseball, basketball, dodgeball - no matter the sport, just remember: you are the star. It's you. At least, you hope it is.

 

9. home ec.

Sewing! Cooking! ... Try not to burn the school down!

 

10. lab work

Frog dissections! Explosions!

 

11. school fair/festival

Every school has one of these. What's your class doing this year?

 

12. theater

Oh boy, oh boy, being the star of this play is your dream. It isn't? Oh. You're still helping with the props and costumes, right?

 

13. library

If you need to look something up or just want some peace and quiet, this is the place. Whatever you do, shh, people are trying to read.

 

14. bully

Whether they take the form of Nelson Muntz or Regina George, if you choose to meet them at the gym at four o' clock or else, be ready to face the consequences... or maybe you don't have to. Not when someone's here to help you out. (This can go either way - one of the participants can be the bully or someone helping the victim.)

 

15. tutor

You're having trouble with a class or you're trying to make up for the days you were absent. It's a good thing someone was nice enough to offer their assistance.

 

16. clubs

Assuming that you actually have one. Are you writing for the school paper? Part of the student council? The marching band? Maybe you're a member of one of those weird occult clubs or something...

 

17. prom

Do you have a dress? A date? Who are you voting for prom king? Is being on prom committee is driving you crazy? Do you even care?

 

18. graduation

Well, it was fun while it lasted. It's time to say those last words, settle those scores and get ready to grow up.

 

19. roll again/make your own scenario

[Sorry, were you enjoying your meal? Because suddenly, there's that feeling like someone's watching you. Someone from above.

Someone like the local weirdo, Toska, who is in his senior year and still manages to act like he's 7. At least he's somewhat gifted with making friends with bullies. Today he has somehow managed to get on top of the windowsill above where the tables fold out from, and is watching like a gargoyle.

...Is that a cosplay tail he's wearing.
]

Hey. Hey psssssst. Reynard. [He can't really... whisper from this distance. So he's just talking normally and hoping people don't pay attention. Which they do anyway, because there's a kid 10 feet above ground.] Guess what I'm up to. C'mon. Guess.
smugfox: teenaged! (I'm listening)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-25 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Toska's speaking to the guy who once left a classroom through the window because the teacher wouldn't let him out the door. Reynard leans back and watches Toska with some interest, head tilted to the side.]

Not really sure, but I'd appreciate some impromptu ballet, myself.

[They have an audience, but Reynard never really minds that.]

Or opera. Whichever you fancy.

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-25 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
...That's actually better than what I had in mind.

[Reynard what have you done.]

[Dear god here he goes. Lifting himself up to strike a ballerina pose on the sill and belt out in some random song that he clearly doesn't even know the words to. But at least he's got heart.

It vaguely resembles something from a Disney movie. True Love's Kiss, maybe?

Meanwhile most of the cafeteria is staring and trying to figure out if they should stop him or just enjoy the show. Well, as long as he doesn't hurt himself... thank god the sill is so wide.

smugfox: teenaged! (yeah so)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-25 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm an entertainment genius.

[And he watches him with very visible amusement and a smile on his face as if the entire thing had been his idea. Could very well have been, really, although in general his pranks tended to have a more malicious edge to them.

This certainly makes lunch hour more entertaining though.]


Bravo!
unicorfgmmfff: (Happy)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-25 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[He takes a bow, and proceeds to tip over and flip in the air before landing on his feet. Figures he'd need that gymnastics training for something.]

How was it? Am I a good singer? [He climbs up on the table to grin at Reynard.] Maybe I should join the theater club or something. Do you think so?

[Of course, like every club he's joined, he'll probably get bored in five minutes and move on to find something else. Sticking to one thing just isn't Toska's style.]
smugfox: teenaged! (smug)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-25 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Excellent.

[Reynard takes a piece of candy from his pocket and puts it into his mouth, smirking up at Toska.]

Sure, honey. Follow your heart. Reach for the stars. Believe in your dreams.
unicorfgmmfff: (Confident)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-25 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I definitely will! [He crows and pumps his fists up in the air just in case there weren't enough people giving him odd looks by now.]

Hey, can I have some candy? We're friends, right? Pretty please?
smugfox: teenaged! (looking up)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-25 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure we are. Yeah, have some.

[He takes out the packet and drops some of the candy into his hand, holding it out for his 'friend'.]

I bet you can use some more sugar.
unicorfgmmfff: (Smirk)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-26 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Don't mind if I do. [And he casually helps himself to that whole handful, licking his lips afterward.]

You wouldn't believe how much I get that one. What was that stuff, anyway? It tastes good.
smugfox: teenaged (windy)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-26 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
Dunno for sure, Niall got it for me. Tastes like very artificial raspberry, though. My favorite.

[He puts some more into his own mouth and gets up.]

Let's go, I'm bored of school today.
unicorfgmmfff: (Happy)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-26 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)

Aw, even after my great performance?

[Will this upset him? Of course not.]

Yeah, let's go. It's too stuffy in here, outside is way better.
smugfox: teenaged! (black and white)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-26 06:02 pm (UTC)(link)
That was entertaining, but it's over now.

[He gets a lighter out of his pocket, absentmindedly playing with it as he heads out of the cafeteria.]

I don't even know why I ever go here in the first place. Nothing I'd want to learn being taught here.
unicorfgmmfff: (Happy)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-26 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Hah, I know what you mean. [He slides off the table and follows along a bit behind him.] It'd be really great if they taught stuff like fencing and care of nocturnal lifeforms and torture techniques and something involving blowtorches. Or a beginner's course to cannibalism, that'd spice things up.

[Toska what.]

Especially if all the explosions in the science classes were happening live. Getting naps between classes would be pretty cool too. And you? What'd you look for?
smugfox: teenaged! (looking up)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-31 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Getting laid and getting into trouble, mostly.

[He's just not really made for any system that requires order, feeling as if he stays in school more as a favor to Niall than anything else. He heads for one of the emergency exits, clearly not the first time he uses that method to cut a school day short.]

School's pointless. For me, at least.
unicorfgmmfff: (Smirk)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-31 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I could get behind that.

[And he means that in several ways.]

You could always just get expelled and help Sela and I out with her pawn shop thing until you've got something better to do. We're probably gonna get a good amount of money out of it.

[Not that he particularly cares, since he's fine with sleeping in trees and eating garbage if there's no one around to feed him.]
smugfox: teenaged! (smug)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-31 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah. I'm in school as long as Niall is. Then we'll see.

[Then they're probably likely to just take off on a constant road trip, stealing cars and everything else and somehow always managing to get away.

Sounds like a good plan for the future to him.]


I'm not really a working man, anyway.
unicorfgmmfff: (Wait what.)

[personal profile] unicorfgmmfff 2013-05-31 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Then you've definitely got no place in school. School only teaches workers.

Hell, the only reason I'm still here is that Sela punched me when I told her I didn't want to be.
smugfox: teenaged (windy)

[personal profile] smugfox 2013-05-31 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
's alright, Niall tends to do my homework and it's fun at times.

I'm not sure yet I've got a place anywhere in the world, but I might as well stick around where I'm needed for a while.
