Week One

[stagemanagers]

[Yesterday, everyone woke up in a strange place and realized that they'd been kidnapped, and also that everyone else around them may or may not be kinnies? Wow, what a weird escalation of kin drama! Given what some people have seen of Spongebob's freaky arm thing, though, maybe it's not that at all?

Your Assistant Director, Hester, showed off her stuff and immediately had her life threatened by Lumpy Space Princess, who got her life threatened right back. Maybe you should keep that in mind if you decide to pay Hester any more visits! She won't be making another public appearance this week, but as promised, she'll be available for visits and consultation in the Principal's Office during business hours.

If you don't want to chat with Hester, there's always the school to explore! Some of you might also be receiving mysterious coins next to your bedside this week - those must be useful for something, right? There's lots to do, and you all seem like a group who can make your own fun, so enjoy your first week of school!]


Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday


(( OOC: This will be the last mod post for this week! Feel free to start submitting regains for any threads that aren't with Hester. Remember, song threads mean an extra coin! This is a peace week, so get all that CR while you can! ))

I would think it would be far too dangerous to live among such an unruly people. The land south of Fife is one full of vicious kings, beasts, and terrible magic.

Except Cymru. It remains a pleasant place despite its neighbor.

mild period-typical colonialism

That's the seat of the British Empire you're talking about. Not liking London, I can understand; half the people who live there don't like it. But we aren't lawless savages.

[A beat.]

And we also don't have magic. Terrible or otherwise.

[mcfife]

[Angus can't decide what is more shocking - another dimension without magic or the idea of London as the seat of an Empire.]

This is all - very strange. And I've come across a dimension where an evil wizard ruled Fife. [That made sense! It was alternate history with few details changed!] Never would I have thought that the people of Engle-land would manage to ever expand their borders.

Forgive me, Barker, but it is something I must get used to. Just how many universes see this development?

[barberic]

[The question throws him off.]

I'm... not sure, Your Highness. I took it as the standard, but I admit this is the first it's come up.

[Unlike the other poor historical mfers who've had to learn about World Wars and the collapse of Empires]

[mcfife]

Would I be correct to assume that magic is unfamiliar to your planet?

[barberic]

Outside of stories, it is. It's not real to me, certainly.

[mcfife]

If it appears in stories...could it be that it had once existing in your universe?

[barberic]

Many people believe it did. Or still does. But mostly children and superstitious old women.

[And Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.]

[mcfife]

I would trust the wisdom of the old women. Many times have their words guided me on my journey.

[barberic]

That is true. And most superstitions are harmless, too. I can tell when the moon's waxing, I get more business because it's supposed to be good luck to get a haircut.

[mcfife]

I would say that is the opposite of harmless!

[barberic]

Well, it's good for business, that's for sure.

Anyway, Your Highness, I've distracted you long enough - would you like me to keep spotting you?

[mcfife]

You do not have to remain. There are plenty of other training exercises I must go through as well.
