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. 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 ( from here ) |

Well that was after Sela threw me at you, it wasn't all me. [Which is actually pretty funny to him in retrospect.]
You're pretty good at it. [He makes a "krrrrr" noise and leans over to return the nuzzling and rub their noses together.] My place is around the bend from here, so I'd better warn you to be quiet while we're inside, at least 'til we get to my apartment. Some of my neighbors are pretty crazy and might try to grab you or something.
no subject
[Colin stares, open mouthed and freezes in place, squeezing Toska's hand. The nose bumps and nuzzling is comforting, but it's not enough to counter the absolute terror Colin feels at the thought of being snatched by strangers and used for god knows what.]
Uh, lets just stay outside, okay? I've heard apartments can be awfully dusty and I'd hate for either of us to get sick.
no subject
[He chuckles at this.] What, you're chickening out already? My apartment's not that dusty, I mean, I haven't died so far. And I'm way scarier than any of my neighbors. Although Pikokai might try to convince you to join his brothel if he sees you.
[He tugs on Colin's hand lightly.] Would you rather someone saw you holding hands with me in public?
no subject
[Some how, he manages to make that sound worse than being kidnapped. Now, all he can think about is poor old Toska, living in terror of being force into prostitution because of this Pikokai person.]
Hm... The lesser of two evils. [He actually can't tell which is worse; his family finding out he was not only skipping school, but holding hands with a guy, or being grabbed by some pimp. After a few moments, he sighs, shoulders sagging and walks forward.]
If that shady Peckingko or whatever his name is tries to sell either of us into prostitution, we're leaving, understand?
no subject
It's Pikokai. And... it's fine, I can talk him out of it, I just didn't want you acting like I didn't warn you. So sure, if you're sure you're about to be forced into prostitution otherwise I will help you escape.
[He leads Colin into the building that's not exactly shabby and not exactly classy, more like a patchwork of both because he really isn't kidding when he says his neighbors are crazy. Pikokai's place is clearly the penthouse, judging from how much gaudiness can be seen - and heard - through the windows, and a few apartments have things like trees, scratching posts and even a live camel inside them. At least the apartments themselves are relatively big.
And he stays completely quiet until they've reached his place a story or two below Pikokai's. Which.. honestly looks like a jungle, made of walkways hung from the ceiling and dirty clothes just kind of dumped on the floor, a few chewtoys left over from the last time Sela brought Fishsticks over, and any interesting object Toska could manage to snatch from Sela's pawn-shop-to-be collection. Especially shiny things.
Most of the place smells pretty earthy for some reasons, but something in here smells distinctly like fish.]
Welcome to Chez Toska, make yourself at home. [He frowns.] I hope it's not too messy for you.
no subject
He really wishes Toska would say something - anything - at this stage. The mass of black feathers that he can hear rustling in the corner is extremely unnerving and the quiet hum of some bass enhaced techno track doesn't do much to hide the faint sounds of something scratching in the walls. It's a relief when the duo finally reach Toska's apartment and Colin smiles as the door is pushed open.
And then the smile fades and the idea of going back into the hall with the strange noises and even stranger figures seems like a brilliant plan.]
Uh-
[He stares at Toska, then at the mess, and finally back at Toska, face pale and nose twitching.]
It's... unique.
no subject
I keep the walkways cleared off, but that just means everything gets dumped onto the floor. It's not like I really ever have visitors anyway. Even Sela hates coming in here. I think right now Fishsticks is the only other person who likes how I decorate. [He can't help preferring high places over anything else. At least he hasn't decided to plant trees in his apartment like some of his neighbors.]
no subject
[Colin scrambles after Toska, frantically jumping at the walkways to console him. He misses every time, much to his embarrassment, but accepts the offer to be pulled up.]
Hey... [He looks down, slightly nervous about being up so high (even though it's really not that bad) and shakily steps over to Toska, gripping his hand as soon as he's close enough.] I'm sorry. I do like it, it's just different for me. Don't be so concerned, okay?
[With an embarrassed smile, Colin leans in, his tongue running over his trembling lips before he pushes them against Toska's.]
no subject
Yeah... [He smirks and lets his tongue slip out to greet Colin's, a hand grasping the back of Colin's neck to tug him a bit closer and holding him in a bit of a possessive grip. This is his now, and he doesn't mind that one bit.]
