Welcome back, Pachman!




Academy of the Arts: Dalia’s Group

"Did you hear that?"

"Huh? Hear wha--"


“Hmm?” Dalia asked, spinning around to figure out what had gotten their attention. Then she heard it, a faint clicking noise. Nothing that would normally bother her but there were no cameras amongst the crowd. This could only mean one thing. “Simon!”

"C'mere you little-!"

“Oh no!” Dalia clapped her hand over her mouth to cover her squeal as the large woman Dylan travelled with - Moira was it? - tumbled out the window with the excitable man following her down.


Next to her, Dylan smacked his hand to his forehead. “Oh Aislin! I can’t even...10 minutes!”



Academy of the Arts: Keeva’s Group

Keeva stood back, smiling at the group as they ran wild through the prop room. She couldn’t really blame them, she had been just as infatuated when she had first discovered the place. “Just remember where you got everything!” she called out over their ruckus. “If we don’t put it back then I’m going to be in so much trouble.”

Soon enough they returned, dressed as knights and superheroes. "It is I, Trixie the Pixie! And this Fuwafuwa is my loyal minion!"

Keeva gave the girl the reaction she was looking for, oohing and ahhing. “A real superhero! Why, I never thought I’d meet one in person!”

"This is how you guys do plays, right? I've never seen one before."

“You’ve never seen a play before?” Keeva was stunned. “It’s just like a telling story, except all the people...well, act it out. Like playing pretend, but you already have the script so you know what to say and when to say it. Oh, if you’ve never seen one before you’re in for a treat. Some of the seniors are doing short scenes. What about the rest of you? Have you guys seen plays before?”
Hello all!

So it looks like we didn't get Estelle, Marcus, and Aria today. I know the site's being a little shit lately, so I'm assuming that's why y'all didn't post. I'm considering skipping tonight so everyone has a chance to post, but that will bump us to a once every two day schedule and I know Pach doesn't like that…maybe just for tonight so that everyone can get caught up? (And hopefully the site starts to work again >.> )

I…just don't quite know what to do here…

EDIT: So I just threw up a couple of quick reactions - thanks so much Buns for giving me such a great set up, I was struggling with that scene - so feel free to react around my posts when you get the chance.
Just a heads up guys, I won't be posting tomorrow till like…7:30/8ish EST. Sorry :(




Academy of the Arts: Dalia’s Group

"I heard they battled a giant mutated bear and defeated a demon, it's amazing stuff, and I'm sure they've done a lot more."

“Defeated a demon?!?!” Dalia squeaked, spinning around to stare her brother with new eyes. He grinned sheepishly, his whole aura flushing a light pink. “Really?”

“Yeah, but it was mostly them,” he gestured vaguely in the direction of the rest of the Pride. “All Lucy and I did really was fight off some children...”



“Wait, you fought children?”

“Demon children!” Dylan exclaimed, suddenly waving his hands around as he flushed furiously. “They were demonic - one had like...a chainsaw and the other was a frickin’ werewolf.”

Dalia had to fight to keep the giggles down, Dylan’s aura was flaring into a full on rose bloom, the embarrassment seeping through. “Oh, my brave brother, fighting off two wee little children.”

“Hey, Dylan. I don’t think I ever actually got to learn before,” Estelle suddenly blinked in realization. “What made you want to become a Guilder? Coming from a place like this, being a Guilder is so much more different…”

Dalia arched an eyebrow at Dylan - she wasn’t that surprised that he hadn’t spoke of why he left Aliquam, but she was curious to hear how he fell in the with group. “Yes, Dyl, tell us. I thought you had just planned to roam.”

Dylan’s aura was starting to fade at the mere thought of it all, the pinks being replaced by a soft, melancholy shade of blue. “It is different,” he finally muttered. “I just needed a change, I guess. I had planned to...wander a bit, clear my head after what happened.” The blues shifted a shade darker, the blues becoming so deep they were nearly black. “But you guys...it’ was infectious, you know? I felt happy and alive and the missions are exhilarating. Besides, now I can use my skills to help people.” He locked eyes with his sister. “And that’s better than parlor tricks, right?”

“Yeah, Dyl, yeah it is.” She hugged him tightly. “I’m glad you’re back. We’ve missed you.” Turning back to the members of the Pride there, she offered them a smile. “And I’m glad you brought friends. How long are you guys planning on staying here? Do you all have some kind of job here?”



Academy of the Arts: Keeva’s Group

"Can we look at the stage stuff?" Trixie asked. “Please please please?" The others chimed in, also sounding eager to join in on the prop room - though there was a request for the sound room as well - and there should be just enough time for that before the performances start.

“Alright then!” She spun around and pointed forward. “To the prop room!” She dashed forward, practically bouncing down the stairs and towards the stage. “This is the quickest way!” Leading the group up onto the stage and through the wings, she danced through the throngs of students who were preparing for their performances. Her steps were light and nimble, and moved with a practiced ease, uncaring of any struggles any of her tour group might be having, and only pausing if she felt she was in danger of losing them completely.

Arriving at the prop room, she turned and faced them with a deep bow, gesturing for them to enter. The room was grand, filled with shelves upon shelves of props - covering everything from weapons to tea kettles. Along one side of the room were rows of costumes, from ball gowns to fake armor, swimsuits to tuxedos. “Welcome, everyone, to the fabled treasure trove. Everything here was made on site by students and staff. And best of all,” she paused to wink at Trixie, “we can play with it all.”
Yeah I'm at work now so I can't post - doing this from my phone - but I'm praying the site will still be up when I get home orz
OMG Moira, don't ever change XD XD XD

Just an update - I've got work today (boo!!!) and the rest of the week so expect my posts to come around 5 or so EST.

Happy Monday! *hangs myself*
POSTED! Sorry for the wall of text guys. ORZ


Academy of the Arts: Keeva’s Group

Dalia beamed at the Pride as the quickly separated into different groups. Turning to Angel and Keeva, she gave them some last minute instructions. “Remember, you don’t have to stick to your assigned areas - when they’re done you can show them around the rest of the academy. Thank you so much for this!”

Keeva returned the smile, bouncing from foot to foot in excitement. “It’s fine, Dalia. Besides, this way I know at least someone’s gonna see my performance.” The musician gave an exaggerated wink. “Alright, who’s with me!”

"Hiii," the young girl cooed. Her eyes flitted back and forth between the musician and Dalia. "You're really pretty too."

Keeva grinned at her, taking a moment to dramatically flip her hair over her shoulder and pose. “Thanks kid, I do try. It’s such hard work,” she joked, “but worth it.”

Soon enough her group filled up, attracting another women and two boys, one of whom simply begged to come along and threw himself into the group. “Easy boys, no need to hurry.”

Turning, she gestured at them to follow her into the Academy. “So you guys are interested in the theater and music departments? Excellent choice.” She dropped her voice to a low and conspiratorial volume. “Don’t tell Dalia this, but honestly music and theater are just more interesting. They’re alive, you know? Vibrant and ever changing, no two performances are the identical.”

Coming to a large set of doors, she paused. “Ahh, here we are. There’s gonna be some performances starting soon, but we should have some time to look around first.” Throwing the door open, she revealed a beautiful theater hall, the seating sweeping downwards towards the orchestra pit creeping just below the stage. The stage was gorgeous as well, with thick beautiful curtains and hardwood floors. Students were scurrying about, some carrying instruments, others props, and a few were just wandering the stage with scripts in hand. “Welcome to our main performance hall.”

Turning to face the group, she gestured grandly. “So what do you want to see? The sound room? The prop room? Some practice rooms? We have it all.”





Academy of the Arts: Dalia’s Group

Dalia waved as Keeva and Angel led the other groups away, and then turned to face the group with her. “So you’re names are...” She fumbled for a moment, but Dylan stepped up, coming to her rescue.

“Estelle, Amy, and Xan,” he said, pointing them out as they went.

“Right. So I’m sure you’re interested in the Academy,” she said as she started weaving them through the courtyard, taking care to pause whenever one of them showed interest in a particular painting or floral arrangement. “We have a fascinating history, if you ask me. We were founded centuries ago in dedication to the Goddess Aislin. I’m not sure if Dylan’s spoken much about her...”

“I may have mentioned her once or twice,” Dylan said with a blush.


“Ah, well, I guess you know all about her then.” Dalia smiled. “This school takes in an interested youth at the age of 15 and offers them training in a variety of art fields. All students take classes in every discipline. If they prove themselves as talented and devoted by the end of the first year, they become eligible to stay one for the next three years, where the study becomes focused. Most students graduate with specialized talents in one field, though we do have over achievers.”


“Dalia’s one of the teachers here,” Dylan added. “Many of the Priests and Priestesses of Aislin are. But she’s the best of them all.”

The priestess blushed, her cheeks turning a brilliant shade of red. “But enough of that. Why don’t you tell me about yourselves. Guilders always have the best stories!”
