Cheers Scotsman! I always worry when I'm typing out the first IC post for an RP whether I've completely misinterpreted the plot... but you painted a great picture so it was fairly easy to visualise! I love a nice, dramatic opening!

I liked my first paragraph, trying to set the scene and all which took a while to write, but after that I lost the writing techniques and resorted to 'Let's just get this thing out quick'. Since we've got this thing going though, I'm going to try and be more consistent. You're post was great though, kept the same high quality throughout.

I know what you mean - long posts often mean more time for ideas/enthusiasm to fizzle out slightly......but that's some nice vocabulary, even in the last paragraph!

But, anyways, I may be a little out of practise, as I've not written anything for ages...A Levels tend to get in the way of any kind of hobby, but I've been determined to resurrect at least something creative before the exams start!...(probably not the best tactic but, oh well!...)

I haven't written anything since I did English last year (almost a year exactly now), but I know exactly how you feel. Higher exams are swelling and all I'm doing is writing. Thanks for the nice words though.

Thanks man! I also have to give you praise for your colourful descriptions, they do a good job of painting the atmosphere.

I hope you understand that if Cecil says nasty things about your characters, it's him talking, not me xD

Thank you! I completely understand, I have this abusive dickhead character in another story and one person in particular keeps getting offended when I (my character) says anything. It's just about playing the character. Anyway, I'm really enjoying it.

Sorry I was at music festival. I'll be posting shortly.


It's fine. Anyone good playing?

OH.
No. Lol. It's for the high school bands in this area. I'm a clarinetist for a teeny tiny school (We have literally thirty kids in the band, and that's like 5th through 12th grade...) I should be first chair going by playing ability but seniority wise I'm the new girl so I'm stuck with the third and fourth parts that no one else wants. D:

I've seen Whiplash, I can now understand what 'first chair' means. That sucks though, if you deserve the spot you should get the spot. Pain in the ass when I used to swim as well.

I was a sprint breastroker. I don't know how you distance swimmers exist, I cringe when I hear about swimming at that speed for 20 minutes. I was a 1:20~1:15 though. I wasn't particularly any good at swimming, but we don't live in a big region...

@The Scotsman Sweet! I live in a smallish town too; I'm the best five hundreder on our team by like a minute.
As far as how I exist, lots and lots of yardage. I went into high school when I was eleven and the only race I actually had a chance to make states in was the five hundred... I qualified, got thirteenth (missed finals by .03 freaking seconds) and my coaches have been grooming me to be a five-hundred-er since then. My high school coach is an idiot, however; she thinks that forcing me to do 7800 yards in less than two hours is going to be conducive to my ability to swim. (For the record the one time she gave me that workout I managed 7300 in an hour and a half and then she called me out and I did another 500 sprint off the blocks. And afterwards I was so dizzy my teammates had to drag me out of the water and literally carry me to the locker room.)

I've always butted heads with my coaches because I have the build for a distance swimmer but I get bored and lazy so I can't do anything over 400 before I lose track and kinda just paddle along. That's super shitty, that .03 seconds thing. I missed Nationals by about 2 seconds (so, y'know, a long ass time), but it still hurts. Out of curiosity, what's your 100m free time?

LOL I suck at sprinting. I swim yards not meters, but my 100y time is like a 1:02.78 or something. Which converts to like a 1:09.81 for SCM. I'm only fourteen, but there're girls my age going 57 flat or better.

Girl, you are speaking my language. I was still competing with the little kids when everyone else my age was storming the 59 in training. I legitimately know someone who can go a 1.00 for 100 breast. It's the craziest thing you've ever seen, almost magical.
