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

( from here )

Threaded | Flat

[straight-a student, on the karate team, abnormally stronger than she looks. bit of a know-it-all. might fuck you up if you piss her off. is the hair natural? who the hell knows.]

[That one athletic girl girl on just about every sports team and club there is, including karate. Keeps to herself more often than not, but she's not shy at all if you wanna talk to her. Also totally a closet nerd.]

[As the school's gym teacher and football coach Armstrong takes his job very seriously. He does whatever it takes to INSPIRE his students to do well.

...also he kinda has trouble keeping his shirts on. Little too much flexing and riiiiiiip.]

[Know how they say cafeteria food sucks? That's totally not the case when it comes to this lunch lady. Only problem is that she's so creepy most people assume she puts something in the food. Hopefully not poison.

Also rumored to have family members in the mafia, though this might not be accurate.]

[Despite having a pretty tough past, Bolin is an all around nice and well-liked guy. He's put life on the streets behind him in favor of working his way up to being a star player on the soccer team. And maybe if he put as much effort into school as he did into sports, his grades might get the improvement that they need.]

( Quiet and thoughtful. Surprisingly good grades considering how much he sleeps in class. Attends the track team, photography club, and student council. Has a black hole for a stomach.

Minato's a pretty normal kid, alright! )

[ the kid that stays away from everyone in order to hide his actual gender. he also ditches. a lot. ]

[OOC: Two options!

First: Teenage Harry. A kid growing up in the foster care system after his father died when he was six. Not easy to make friends with but his heart's in the right place. Tons of authority problems so he doesn't have many fans among faculty, he doesn't get very good grades but clearly isn't trying as hard as he could. Hates bullies and isn't afraid to throw the first punch whether he's the victim or somebody else is, scrappy as hell and isn't afraid to take a beating.

Second: Faculty Harry. Probably English, theater or some other artsy class as a teacher. He might also work as a guidance counselor spending time with troubled kids thanks to his background.

Your choice!]

[Seto Kousuke is a poorer student, living without a guardian with two other teenagers. He spends a lot of time doing part time jobs but is still always able to be a friendly presence in the school]

[You guys know that one nerd who's into really into dorky shit, RPs online, LARPs once or twice or...more often than that, is destined to join the anime club the second he gets into college, has a webcomic, will at some point get the Mark of the Exalt as a tattoo because he thinks it looks cool, and is just a nerd?

Yeah.

Also tends to, when he ditches classes (because who doesn't once or twice?) come back with REALLY. WEIRD. stories which...may or may not be true.]

[Brigitte is that girl at the back of the class room or tucked away in a corner of the library that is the poster girl for "it's always the quiet ones". She skipped a grade and she gets straight A's but she doesn't talk to anyone and dresses in layers and layers of clothing even in the warmer seasons. They say her family moved after her sister committed suicide but it's all rumors, nothing's been confirmed. Brigitte is certainly morbid enough though, which only fuels the rumors.]

[ oooooookay um drug dealing, foul mouthed senior that’s in a gang, breaks all the pretty girls’ hearts, molests the juniors and bullies you because it’s f u n. have at it, folks, it's canon! o7 ]

[Atticus is that history teacher that actually makes the subject fun. Flipping tables over to build trenches in the classroom, balls of paper as bombs, visits from re-enactors, and more. His class is mostly lecture but it's still interesting because he's just that good at story telling. He also teaches the mythology class and is the fencing coach. He even helps out the drama students with stage fighting techniques and is probably the biggest and coolest nerd in the school.]

[Bone Cold is supposedly "troubled", but all you know is that he's a chain-smoking asshole with the gift of the gab. He's made at least three teachers cry, has been through more counselors than most people have pairs of socks and will gladly lay a hurt on anyone for the right price.

Also a huge attention-seeker. Of course.]

[ooc: Posting him here for nostalgic reasons, the last high school AU was EPIC.

So, yeah, bully, bad boy, flirt, all you don't want your parents to see you with.]

[ooc: very popular jock type, rich and emotionally abusive family, bully tendencies, hell, it's pretty much canon just with less magic]

[1 | Student
He's hard to get to know but those who are familiar with Booker know him for a few things. He gets the job done when he can, and violence is usually his last resort if he can't get something done the first time. Sent to the office a couple of times, he's passing with a B- average while science is his weak point. There's also a rumour that his girlfriend is pregnant, but no one can confirm or deny that, considering she hasn't been to class for the past year due to illness.

So maybe catch him in the library? That's where he's been spending most of his days, recently. If anyone knows why, good for them.

2 | Teacher
Stuck with a choice, DeWitt couldn't make up his mind and is not only the American History teacher, he's also in charge of the Anatomy class when enough students sign up for it. Helpful as much as he can be, he's rough on the students who try to get close, but prone to having those same people crawl under his skin. Great.

Something else | your choice
Have at it. Juvenile delinquents, visiting school, anything else? ]

[Giant nerd, A student, president of the physics club, vice president of the photography club and by extension of that a member of the year book committee. Surprisingly agile as she used to do gymnastics.]

[Hey, its that weirdly quiet foreign exchange kid, who is chilling off to the side by himself in the cafeteria. Perhaps you should finally go up and say hi?]

[That chick that seems to be on all the sports teams. Average student who absolutely hates bullies.]

[That kid who does her best to fly under the radar but for one reason or another utterly fails at it. Possibly because she's one of the track team's star runners.]

i. sansa: is a freshman, the kind you can easily spot in the halls because they always look a little lost. she comes from a rich family, which makes her sometimes unwittingly snobby. a "girly-girl" who is obssessed with teen romance novels and those magazine articles who teach you how to dress your hair to get boys to like you ( though she only has eyes for joffrey )

ii. alayne: she's the quiet girl at the back of the class, always polite but ultimately mysterious. nobody really knows anything about her, except for the fact that her father is petyr baelish, a local councillor for the city.
