poketesting | your shoujo is beginning!

[Ah, high school.

A truly wonderful and inspiring time for all. With the school year starting, faceless students mingling about and chatting -- catching up over their summer, or grabbing their friends to congratulate them on getting into the world's top Pokémon Trainer's School -- with the cherry blossoms spinning in the wind from the rows of them lining the school's beautiful golden gates...

Yes, there's truly nothing better!

Except for perhaps the middle school just beside this beautiful campus; there's a small lake between them where the grades intermingle, and the excitement of the day - and maybe even the bell ringing to signify classes, lunch, or break! - is vibrantly in the air!

Just be careful that the principal doesn't see you with your Pokémon out! That would distract the other students, after all...]

[ooc: welcome to the high school au room! also middle school, if your character's not quite aged enough. with uniforms, cheery blossoms, and the exciting promise of an excellent spring for all classes and grades, it's sure to be a blast!

please mingle and thread amongst yourselves, and have a great time! if it's school au, it's free to go!]

[HE'S

SO OFF-PUTTING

BUT AT THE SAME TIME

CUTE BOY

LYRA DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO but speaking of Red Flags this has to be one!! She just knows it! Sure, he's a little on the weird side, but maybe that's exactly what she deserves!]

I'm not always like this, it's just the spring time! I have allergies. I didn't think I'd get so worked up because of cherry blossoms though... Of all the things. [Sigh.]

At least they're beautiful to look at, right? [Smell them, Lyra-chan. Take a big whiff, like him. It's so nice to see them fluttering...]

You're not bad looking either, even if you remind me a lot of an ursaring woman I know!

[No she's going to be sneezing into her handkerchief.]

... An Ursaring woman?

A girl named Koto-kun. She's unbearable.

[Giggle!]

I know a boy just like that! His name's Ethan. Oh, um, I'm Lyra, and this is Sprouty. Sorry we couldn't meet under better circum-- [SNEEZE] -- stances.

It's nice to meet you Lyra-dono, Sprouty-dono! [Heehee.] I'm Hibiki.

[Dono's cute. Let's see, what was it... She has to call him something too...]

It's nice to meet you too, Hibiki! What's your homeroom? Maybe we can walk together~. And get away from these accursed signs of spring.

I'm in 1-B. [HUFF HUFF!!] What's yours?

1-D. I guess I can at least walk you to yours, but you'd have to walk extra if you wanted to walk me to mine... [Like in a true shoujo.]

[Like in one of his visual novels!]

I wouldn't mind walking you extra! I wouldn't mind being late at all!

Wow, and I thought I was forward... Um, sure! I wouldn't mind having a cute boy walk me.

[First flag achieved.]

Sorry, sorry. I'm not used to people actually talking back to me when I talk to them... I was kind of a loner in middle school.

[And he was one of those cool loner boys who was too shy to reach out...!]

That's too bad. Even with your bear girl around?

[No he was the huge geek no one wanted to affiliate themselves with because he has dakimuras at his house hanging on his walls of his favorite anime girls --]

Koto-kun didn't like hanging out with me.

What a rude girl! How long have you known her for? Even I stuck around Ethan... I mean, I don't think he wanted me to be around him so much, and I totally had a ton of friends, but I just didn't want him to be lonely with his bad attitude.

Since we were kids. She liked hanging out with me until I discovered Tsuki-chan and the other Star Scouts and started watching anime in middle school... She likes it too, but she won't admit it anymore.

[What a horrible girl! Hiding what she liked...]

Oh, I'm sorry... I used to watch it all the time when I was younger too. I don't too much anymore, but that's because I've moved onto games. Visual novels! Dating Sims! Things like that. They're fun.

[A common bond... Maybe he wouldn't be so bad to have as a friend! They could talk about things together!]

[A common bond!

This means they can't date. Well, so much for attempting to be normal in high school. 2D forever!!]

Me too. Actually, I've made a few! They're nothing original though, just fan stuff.

[And they're also horrible and no one but him plays them but that's okay. Tsuki-chan is the star (ha) of them all.]
