your shoujo is beginning!

[shirimasen]

[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!]

{ Man, look at you little miss studious. Trying to be on time and studying.}

Guess it would be kind of wasteful for you to be late then, C'mon.

{ Normally, Red would be against rushing to school, but you look like your about to bolt away anyway. So he'll take off running.

Good save, Red would mock you forever if he knew you liked that terribad stuff.}

So, who are you anyway?

[heroineoftruth]

[Ah, she's right after him! And keeping up well, though she has to restrain herself a little keep up conversation. Track team is so helpful with this.]

Hilda! It's nice to meet you, uh --?

[championfire]

Red, it's nice to meet you.

{ Say you're pretty fast....Alright why not.} Care to race?

[heroineoftruth]

[Oh, boy.]

Only if you don't mind losing.

[championfire]

You're on! { If only he knew you ran track and how stupid this was. But hey he'll go ahead and run faster then.}

[heroineoftruth]

[It's all about pacing! She speeds up too -- it feels so good to go fast.

Hey, she'll pass him if he's not careful. She's mostly saving her energy for the 100 meter dash to the school's gated entrance - that's her specialty after all.]

Is this as fast as you can go? [It's hard to talk while you're running, but an experience runner can do it!]

[championfire]

{ What's pacing? It's all about speed, all the time! ...Which is what will exactly be his losing factor.}

Not at all. { Yeah, he might be lying, and it's a bit harder for him to talk then you while running, but there is pride on the line!...or something.}

[heroineoftruth]

[Oh, Red. She's not gonna go easy on a guy who lies --]

I'll see you at the gates, okay? [Slowly... speeding up... Hmm, even if she dashed now she might could make it...]

[championfire]

{ It's how you impress people right?}

That's what you think. { ...Oh man wait she can go faster? What did I get myself into. He'll speed up a bit, but still going to lack behind. Never should have challenged a track star.}

[heroineoftruth]

[She's not even the best the track team has!

Anyway, she'll be dashing when she gets to her best distance and -- god, she's gonan be late if she waits for him, but he was pretty nice... So she'll wait for him at the gate. With some water, of course.]

[championfire]

{ Could have fooled him.

...How can you even go so fast? Red will attempt to keep up but easily fall behind. Catching up at the gate, He'll quickly try and catch his breath as he laughed faintly.}

Man, you're way faster then I expected.

[heroineoftruth]

I'm on the track team. [She'll offer him the water bottle.] Sorry I didn't warn you before.

[championfire]

That's totally cheating. { But he'll take the water and take a drink anyway.} I would have never challenged you then.
