We took your quizzes, and your tests, and your exams, and we won! Now it's our time to enjoy those last few days. One week until graduation; one week until the Senior prom. (No frosh allowed!) Who are you going to bring? What are you going to wear? Who's going to sneak booze into the dance and spike the punch?<br><br>&nbsp;~~~~~~<br><br>This roleplay is revolved around Richmond High School at the end of the school year. Talking and connecting with other RPers in this game is essential in order to make a history with other characters. Your character would have spent at least a large chunk of time in this school, so they would at least know <em>someone</em> by now. This is not a roleplay to just meet everyone for the first time and come in as a fresh face, so I will not be accepting characters that are newly transferring in.<br><br>See the timeline below for an idea of what each day will have in its schedule. Also, see the lists below for the characters currently in the game!<br><br><br><strong>Title:</strong> Everybody Changes (High School Slice of Life)<br><strong>Genre:</strong> Casual High School Cliques Roleplay<br><strong>Requirements:</strong> 400+ words (3+ paragraphs)<br><strong>Owner and Creator:</strong> Shobogun Lover, inspired by Breezy Bree<br><br><strong>Status:</strong> Open (Everyone's in finals so it's slow.

He sat up in bed, leaning back against his headboard. He didn't want to go to school, to face rejection another time but he had to be better than that. Trisha just didn't want to go to the prom, he got that. He just wished she hadn't just thrown it in his face. She could have just said no or she wasn't interested in him in that way, no she just couldn't be bothered to go. Tyler was still determined to have fun at prom, he was sure his friends would still make it a good time.<br><br>Tyler glanced up at the back of his door, his suit was still hanging there. Even with his positive spin on the situation his attitude was still sour. He got up from bed and threw the suit into his closet. He pulled on some dark jeans and a "I Like Pi" t-shirt and went downstairs for breakfast.<br><br>----<br><br>School was bustling as he pushed open the doors from the senior parking lot. He kept his head down as he headed to his locker. Someone rammed into his shoulder causing him to trip a few steps and eventually landed on his butt, good thing he wasn't carrying any books or this would be quite the typical high school nerd situation. Maybe if he had dropped his books he would have found the love of his life, that's how it works right?<br><br>As he got up he heard a ripping noise. He pulled off his backpack and one of the straps had snapped from the bottom of the pack. He grumbled. <em>Of course this would happen</em> He thought as he dragged his feet to their destination of his locker. Maybe he could sew the strap back on? He would have to wait till he got home to actually try it. One day of a one strapped back won't completely kill his spine, right?<br><br>This wasn't going to be a good day, Tyler could feel that.<br><br></span>

Her mom and dad was going on about the move while they were working on packing up their things at the army base house they lived in.<br><br><em>'We should return that dress to Ross. I don't think she's taken the tag off of it yet, has she? She won't be able to use it anyways.'<br><br>'That's her dress for her prom. Let her keep it.'<br><br>'Well, she isn't going to prom anymore, is she?'<br><br>'It's the only memory she'll have of here. She was excited to go.'<br><br>'And now it'll just be collecting dust. When is she going to wear something that ridiculous?'</em><br><br>It kept going on like that, and the words weighed heavily on her. She wasn't sure what she was expecting to come home to after school anymore. She imagined opening her closet door just to find that large void where her prom outfit had been sitting; they probably wouldn't even care for her opinion. They typically didn't. When they had to move, they had to move. That was orders. That was the life of a military brat.<br><br>Now, all she had to look forward to was finals. They were the only thing at school that was left for her now. That felt even more depressing. Her hands curled tight around her backpack straps as she headed into the school, going straight for her locker. It was close to Tyler; close enough for her to see him hit the ground as Brent came towards her. Brent; the big ol' brute from the wrestling team. She still remembered their conversation from last night and it just had her feeling winded right about now.<br><br>He made that beeline for her, but she shimmied past him to Ty;<strong> "hey, you alright? You look like you took a hard spill."<br></strong><br>That conversation didn't last long before an arm was hanging over her. <em>'Hey, babe. Don't bother with this twerp. Alright? Come walk with me to class.'</em>

He yawned and stretched out on the air mattress that had been his bed for the better part of three months. It was quiet in the apartment, which was good. His mom was probably passed out in one of the tiny bedrooms; they were staying with a couple of her friends and they had the other bedroom. Gavin wasn't alone in the living room, though. His 6 year old sister Sadie was sleeping on the couch. Gavin shook her gently mumbling, <strong>"Come on kiddo, it's time for school..."</strong> Sadie whined and protested, but eventually she rose from the dead. "Five more minutes," the little girl whined, pouting from under a nest of bedhead hair.<br><br><strong>"We don't have five more, munchkin," </strong>Gavin responded as he made his way to the bathroom to shower, <strong>"Get dressed so I can brush your hair okay?"</strong> Sadie's hair was almost as long as she was tall and keeping it in order was a chore. Gavin would have gotten it trimmed if he'd had his way but...well, Sadie wanted her hair long and he was a sucker for his baby sister's demands. What Sadie wanted, Sade got, with very few exceptions. Once he had showered and dressed, Gavin got Sadie dressed and put her hair in braided pigtails (the only way to keep it from ending up a tangled mess, it seemed). He had to feed her quickly, before his mother's friends got crabby at them for making noise. Then, Gavin loaded her into the junky old Jeep that the Archers had owned since Gavin was his sister's age. It ran well despite it's age, thanks to Gavin. He always had been mechanically inclined and worked at an auto shop in town.<br><br>After he dropped Sadie off at her elementary school, Gavin headed for his own school a few blocks away. He wasn't surprised to see signs all over the hallway for the upcoming dance. Ugh; what a waste of time and money...

Ugh. Good morning sun; why are you up so early? Why do you hate me?"</strong> Penny lay sprawled out in bed as the sun streamed through her window. It was just her luck that her bedroom window faced east, meaning that when the sun came up, it hit her full in the face. At least the school year was almost over! Then it was summer break and music camp and all sorts of fun! Penny's parents were both classically trained musicians and they'd done everything they could to make sure their daughter followed in their footsteps. While she wasn't much of a singer like her father was, and she couldn't play a woodwind to save her life like her mother could, Penny did have a knack for stringed instruments. The piano had been her first, and then the violin, where her strongest talents were. She was teaching herself the harp these days too, just because it seemed like something neat to know. <br><br>Her parents were out of town; her mother was part of a local orchestra that often travelled out of town for performances, and her father went with for moral support. That left just Penny and the Walker family's many cats, five in total, in their house. She fed the felines first, so that they wouldn't make eyes at her while she was eating her own breakfast. It was foggy and chill out despite being almost summer; that put a bit of a dmaper on her morning. Damp weather always made her hair so frizzy and poofy and hard to control! Penny fought with it for most of the morning before giving up and just tying the entire mass back in a messy bun atop her head. Fighting with her hair had left her with hardly any time for breakfast. Since she was in a crunch for time, Penny ended up being lazy and just stopping at a coffeeshop near the school for food. <br><br>Latte in one hand, cone in the other, and violin case tucked under her arm, Penny pushed the school's main door open with her shoulder.

(https://www.polyvore.com/ross/set?id=237117216)<br>&nbsp; <strong>Event:</strong> I need more sleep =.=<br><hr><hr><strong>"...Jesus <em>fucking</em> Christ..."</strong> Ross muttered as he slowly sat up in bed, rubbing his hands over his eyes. Sunlight was streaming through the window. The dorm was brilliantly lit. He hated it. Why did he live in a place that was so goddamn sunny? He reached over to grab his phone off of his bedside table, catching sight of two little framed picture that sat there next to his lamp. One was a picture of himself and his friend Karlee, at summer camp not too long ago. The other was a picture of his parents, though this one was significanty older - he was in it too, as a toddler sitting on his mother's lap. Right. That was why; his parents fancied themselves hippies and wanted to travel around the world in an RV instead of settling down to raise their son. Thus, Ross lived with his grandparents, so that he could go to school and have a stable life.<br><br>It didn't mean that he was all that thrilled about regularly getting up at an early hour. He'd stayed up far too late the night before and had gotten maybe three hours of sleep. That, though, was normal. Ross rolled out of bed and shuffled over to the minifridge in the corner of hs room, next to his gaming "battlestation". He&nbsp; grabbed one of his favourite energy drinks from inside. Ross popped the top and downed it with skill that would impress any beer-chugging frat boy. Then he tossed the can in the recycing bin nearby and got dressed, bitching under his breath all the while. <br><br>He didn't feel much better by the time that he arrived at school, another can of energy drink in his hand as he zombie-shuffled through the halls. Sometimes he wondered why he bothered showing up; he had the grades to have skipped ahead a few years and graduated by now. His grandmother had insisted he go through the normal way, though, and damn how he wished she hadn't...

I like snapbacks! (https://www.polyvore.com/karlee_comfy/set?id=193470320)<br>&nbsp; <strong>Event:</strong> <br><hr><hr><br>The early mornings were always the same routine for Karlee. She enjoyed her routines, and enjoyed being able to check everything off of her last every day. It helped a good deal with making sure she always kept in shape, not like that was hard with all of the after school programs she had. Her grades were less than to be desired, but she was pretty well known for keeping up with some of the boys in boxing and wrestling. Yeah, they could still deck her with a knock out, and they had a lot more strength on her than she did, but she had some crazy agility that worked in her favor. It took a solid year for them to stop pussyfooting when they were her challenger, and now they were all pretty well and close. Some of them a lot closer. Those rumors weren't all that far off. She wasn't surprised to have one of the boys begging for her attention this morning, but being late for her first period was not longer an option, not when it was a class with your own dad. He wouldn't give her detention; he'd ground her. He already had a couple times this year when her bestie decided to have Karlee play hookie along with her.<br><br>Still, she managed to leave him behind at the locker rooms where she'd stored her uniform for later and escaped with her backpack slung over one shoulder out to the halls. There was still time before first period, which was pretty good seeing as coming her way she'd spotted a familiar disheveled sulky salt mine. Karlee didn't hesitated to leap down the short staircase in the front lobby and run the last shot feet to her friend just to ruffle her hair through his thin hair. It was always so ridiculously soft. Well, almost always. Sometimes he'd surprised her with how greasy it could get when he forgot to shower for a few days. <strong>"Hey, Ross! What's got you so sour today? Common, one week left until you can go back to sleeping in until two PM!"</strong> sure, it was finals week, the week where Karlee ended up figuring out how little she had retained the entire year, but it was summer break that kept her hopes high through it all! She couldn't way to get out, especially with this being her last year here.
