Sin smiled, leaning forward closer to her. "Nope. We've all day free. That is, of course, unless one of our annoying instructors forces us to do practice. But I guess we'll see, uh? Care to come swimming?" he nearly begged her.
---
Bray, upon realizing the lack of thought he put into his words and the conentation of them, blushed. "I mean your fighting skills, is all. Caught my eye," he quickly corrected. But what did he really mean?
---
"Boo," an all to familiar voice sounded directly behind Roxy. Rowan. He was smirking, something it was becoming all to clear he did often. "Mind if I join you?" he requested but didn't bother to wait for an answer, plopping into the seat just beside her.
(Star I'm so sorry. You don't deserve that. She's wrong, and from her texting you saying those things it's clear even she knows it's not true. She's bitter and hurting and is acting like a child to get back at you. Just remember you have people that are grown up enough to live you the right way, like your father, your friends, and even us!)

"oh, ok," Zo said, "um, why? I don't have any fighting skills. I'm so clumsy,"

Bray grabbed her hand, unsteady as he pulled her to a stop, making her face him. "Maybe in your regular everyday. But, Zo, when you're doing what you were born to do- fighting, protecting? It's a different story entirely. Doesn't even exist on the same plane." He paused, thinking back, trying to get her to understand what he saw as he looking directly into her eyes. "Remember last year when you were at Maroon Safehouse, continuing your studies? In England?" he offered. Sure, she had been many places over a short period of time, but she would remember. "I had just arrived to oversee the new Keeper, those younger than you with basic training, that hadn't even been a Keeper for a year? You were reading some textbook and I overlooked you- it's what I do. Have to, in order to pay attention to the new Keepers and see who were good options to bring here. But the next day, when you were battle practicing with Old Man MacKay? All the experience in the world, age not a deferment for him, and yet, despite it all, you beat him. Now THAT gained my attention. You were near perfection out there," he admitted to her. Compliments were not something he gave, hardly ever.

Yuri twiddled a strand of her blonde hair with her fingers, "I'm not the biggest fan of swimming..." She wouldn't admit that she can't swim very well. Yuri did learn how to swim, but she wasn't the best swimming, let alone like swimming too much.

"Well," Sin began to offer, "you could just sit on the side of the pool, stick your feet in and eye this gorgeous body of mine," he teased with a bright, flashing grin. "Or I could teach you what swimming is all about. In which case you'll love it for the rest of time," the boy told her in a friendly tone, face light.

Thanks Turtle. I know she'll turn around soon. Just have to ignore her for awhile. I'm glad to have mature people in my life like my father, bf, and you guys! (Most of my friends aren't too mature lol.) )

"I...I had forgotten all about that," Zo said softly. "I just thought he was older and couldn't keep up or something.." She looked at Bray and sighed. "Thank you, that..that made me feel better.."

(lol true. But I'm sure most love you u conditionally, and that's all that matters! I know how you feel, though I go through the same crap with my mother. I'm fortunate to have my grandparents in my life ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/6575102/images/lNtnPuxeCzkaKMNYVXVv.gif) ) Bray chuckled. "Don't let him learn you said that. He might force you to fight him again and really give it to you this time," he laughed in amusement. "Word travels, you know. Of course you're safe for now. No information gets off this island," he assured, letting go of her hand and continuing forward in the direction of the battlefield.

"I don't really need to learn how to swim, I'll just sit by the edge of the pool and count the clouds that you probbaly won't be able to see because of the mist," Yuri giggled at the Hydro's way of humour and rolled her eyes, she put her hands together and waited for Sin to lead the way out. "Or I could just practice out my powers for a little bit..."

"Oh boo! Don't be such a bore," Sin requested of Yuri with a wink. "Trust me. You did yesterday and it turned out pretty fun, right? And you hardly knew me then," he said taking her hand. "Just let yourself be free and do things. Heck, with all the Hunters out there, you never know at what moment you may die. Time to live it up, dear."

Bray gave a half smile. "Not enough of them to make a difference even if they could," he added with a smirk.

Yuri sighed, knowing that Sin was probably going to end up dragging her to the pool. "I'm not swimming. I prefer to live life in different ways than swimming," She stated stubbornly though her ocean blue eyes glimmered with amusement. "And that was only riding horses! No swimming involved, and to be honest it was pretty nerveracking riding those horses,"

Zo snorted in amusement as she looked around the clearing, or at least what she could see from the fog around them.

I don't feel like quoting, but here's the reply for you, Turtle. x) )
Xhai pulled back, glancing around at the now dark sky. "Yeah. Another time." He shook her hand, even though he was annoyed at her for threatening his daughter. He put the staff up and grabbed his bow and arrow before walking to his dorm room where Achlys was(I assume? If not, I can change this.). He grinned as she ran up to him and jumped on him, giving him a huge hug while squealing,"Daddy!" Xhai chuckled, easily catching the 8 year old girl and spinning around as he hugged her back. "Hey, sweetie. How was your day?" With that, Xhai spent the rest of the night listening to Achlys telling him about her day before he told her to get ready for bed. After she was all ready and tucked in, he got ready and fell asleep as well.

•Roxy w/ Rowan Roxy knew all too well who that voice belonged to. She didn't look behind her, however and the mixture of anger and fear within made her face turn ghost white. Seconds seemed as long as minutes while she waited for him to leave her alone, but he didn't which angered her even more. As soon as Rowan sat next to her, Roxy shot him a 'I-will-kill-you' glare with her purple gaze. "And what are you doing?" She asked with bitter sarcasm as she struggled to fight the urge to punch Rowan right in his rougishly handsome face. It was clear that she was still upset over yesterday.

(Hello and welcome! We'd love to have you, if you're interested in joining! As Music (Sum) has said, we're good in terms of our layout, banners and headers and what not. But we are still in need of Helpers! A Helper is someone who will help us with plot and all the fun drama and roleplaying, as well as offer help and get any new members involved and roleplaying regularly. Won't have to do too much, but you'll be a big part of our main plots! You also get to have as many Head Masters and Instructors as you would like, and can roleplay two Keeper Students, rather than just one as regular members will have. So it's up to you if you would like to join as a Helper, or a regular member!
Won't be replying yet, was just popping in. Gotta do my certification stuff, guys. Got three more days and then the first portion is supposed to be done and I'm just doing course review until my exam)

I can also add "School of the Gifted" in there if you want I tried something else with it but it didn't look right and then I tried black and white but it still didn't look right so it sort of looks like the one you made but with a slightly different color and different font. I liked how the border looked sort of like waves but also sort of like spikes) ![](http://orig03.deviantart.net/6f2b/f/2017/203/2/7/evermore_by_gingerfl0wer-dbh9jg4.png)

Ok, um, so i did a little writing piece on Yuri. The door behind her bedroom XD i was bored Xd. It's actually interesting writing quite creepy and unsettling pieces like i tried with this one. I put it in spoilers just in case some of you didn't really want to read it. If you want, i guess you could assume it as fan writing ^^ I assumed we probably wont rp the summer breaks really so there was no other way i could get to write this other than here
"Don't do anything crazy and don't go looking for trouble please," Yuri had said before walking off.
...
Everyone paused for a moment as the chandelier light that lit up Yuri's bedroom flickered. Yuri wouldn't be back for a while, she had gone off to help the butler prepare the Banquet. Meanwhile, a group of the guests or her friends had snuck into her room.
In the Photon's room there was a white, silk curtain that was randomly spread over a wall. But there was something behind it. A door. A white door with odd gold lining. Strange. Yuri wouldn't have wanted anyone to see it.
The Group walked forward and they swung open the door just behind the curtain. Beyond the door was a dark room. Quite large to not have been seen for a while. Despite the darkness that grasped the room, the white walls and flooring had the same unnerving and unsettling cleanliness to it. Not even a speck of dirt or dust was visible. But it seemed as though the room was untouched for a very long time...
It was some sort of playroom, for a toddler or some sort perhaps. Toy blocks scattered the room with toy soldiers littered across the floor. Over in one corner was a small train set, which seemed to have not been touched in a while. Dolls were piled together near a dollhouse which was half open. What was creepy however, the dolls in the dollhouse were organised strangely. One was slung over the kitchen floor with it's head half stuck in the door. Another was tied to some sort of post by a small rope while the third was disembodied and scattered in the lounge.
As the group all gathered in the centre of the room, the door had slammed shut, leaving them in darkness surrounded by the unmoving toys.
On the other side of the room was a jack in the box.
A moment passed and silence enveloped the room. Until...
A strange music started to play, an unsettling, abnormal type of music. It was from the music box. The jack-in-the-box toppled and fell over on the side.
The group of the gifted and keepers huddled together in the middle.
"Perhaps we shouldn't of gone in here..." They would whisper to each other.
Something snapped and everyone looked around each other. In the corner, the train had begun to move... slowly, stopped every so often just to keep moving. No one in the group had touched it though.
The soldiers that were once lying across the floor were all standing, facing the group with their miniature weapons held in their hands that were pointing towards the group.
Everyone was too frightened to move, let alone speak. It wasn't the toy soldiers or the Train set or the music box that scared them. No.
...
It was the figure of a small young girl staring at them in the corner of the room...

Rowan raised an eyebrow, upon realizing her attitude, gave a curt nod. "Ah. You're still mad at me, I'm guessing? What, for taking my property back?" He let out a short snort. "Fine. I'm sorry," he apologized. "And if it makes you feel any better-" he drug out the insulting dagger from his back waistband- "you can have it. As a sign of my acceptance of mistake. I've snatched another that will suffice," he remarked as he sat it on the table in front of her. The item was sharp, shining steel, and the handle had a strange engravement on it, made up of very fine, tiny detail.
---
"We'll see," Sin said with a grin; he could be very, persistently convincing, and would do everything in his power to get her to join him, not falling short of pulling or pushing her in. Besides it was just a swimming pool, what could possibly scare her about that? But he agreed to meet her there after changing, so he made his way to his own dorm room.
---
Bray was glad to see many of the Keeper students had already arrived at the battle field for their first group practice this year- and first entirely for many of them, those that hadn't attended the school before, and may have only had a bit of training if kept at a safehouse before coming. It was nearing time, though, and he recognized one face missing; Rowan the boy who knocked out Namika the night previous. The one he wasn't quite sure what to think about.
Kylie stood near her friend, Namika, now, interested in hearing from her about the rumored event of the night before. Gossip was great here, and even the new kid knew something was up.

(Hey Mid! No worries!
I wouldn't do that. Any contest that requires payment is a scam. Contests that require a purchase are sometimes ok, but if it's a payment and you don't automatically receive something, everyone says don't do it, and I would have to agree)

Post by ❤~Midnight~❤ on Jul 24, 2017 15:50:51 GMT -5
(Oh. It isn't a normal contest. It's like a scavenger hunt thing and it's been around a few years. It's called gishwhes. You basically sign up and get placed into a group of fourteen other people from all around the world and have a week to complete a huge list of items that either ask you to create something crazy, do something crazy, or do a random act of kindness. You either film it or take a picture of it and send it in and you're rewarded points. Winning group gets to go on an all expenses paid trip with the actor.)

Post by Turtleshell on Jul 24, 2017 16:05:27 GMT -5
(Eh I wouldn't do it. Spending money for something you likely won't win. The actor could offer it free as charity, then the contest doesn't have to cost money.
But obviously up to you it just sounded like you wanted advice lol.
Want to jump in our Keeper battle practice w/ Ava?)

(Most of the money does go to charity. But true, I wont win. Points accumulate over the years so there's no possible way for me to win) (Sure I can jump in. I'm a little lost as to where everything is at the moment but I can read up.)

(Ok! Well basically nothing has happened except everyone who has arrived- like 90% of students im pretending- have got their roommates. Gossip about one of the Keeper students getting knocked out by other. Keeper instructors gathered their students to get a battle practice even though classes haven't started- they have a higher standing to uphold.)
Kylie looked over at Ava, who was joining her. "Well...how do you feel after the night?" she wondered. She knew the girl was roomed with another Keeper, so it just not be too bad, right? Being with a human...almost normal.
