[punkpoemprose]

Mariposa Academy, a secret academy for supernatural students, is hidden away in the countryside of Scotland. The school itself is a castle from the thirteen hundreds, rebuilt and fixed in the eighteen hundreds. The school has been in operation since 1807 and though much has changed in the time of over 200 years, the school still holds strong roots in the supernatural community. From birth your attendance to the academy has been fated and from this moment on the history of the castle lay in your hands. Will you show your talents, learn and become a stronger being, or will you attribute to the castle's darker history. The choice is yours and yours alone as another new year begins.

Elizabeth

Location: Front Walk / With: No one/ OOC: None

Elizabeth sighed as she pulled her suitcase down the long front walk of the academy. Four years she had spent at the place, excluding of course summers, and as much as she was sick of the place she was glad to be back. There was something about her last first day that made her smile. As she listened to the suitcase thud along the path she chided herself for forgetting that she could have simple levitated the thing behind her. "I don't make much of a witch do I?" She asked herself aloud, to which Grendel mewled in agreement.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"You, celestial being,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxhave been created to be an angel of the Lord."

It was the first of September yet again, summer was over and autumn was taking over the land. Luckily enough it was still sunny, but knowing the weather around this time of year, it wouldn't stay that way for long. Cole had been looking forward to this day, ever since he left the Academy earlier this year, at the end of his first year at this school. He'd finally found a place where he felt entirely at ease, where he didn't have to hide who he was. It was refreshing.

He slowly walked the path from the station to the Academy itself, his suitcase rolling behind him. He could fly there, of course, but this was the perfect opportunity to just enjoy the sun for a little longer. To everyone around he looked human, his wings hidden from sight. He looked as human as the older students walking in front of him, some talking loudly while others preferred to just silently walk on. A couple of feet before him he couldn't help but recognise one of the students he knew was in her last year. For as far as he'd gathered, she was a witch and hardly ever seen without her adorable cat.

Cole couldn't help but overhear what she said to the cat, however much he tried. It wasn't his fault that she was right there in front of him. "If you still don't make much of a witch after years here," He started with a smile, taking a couple of long steps to catch up with her. "Then perhaps you should have done things differently. But from what I've seen last year, you're not so bad at all." He smiled kindly at the girl, tilting his head a tiny bit to the side.

Elizabeth

Location: Front Walk / With: Cole / OOC: None

Elizabeth chuckled, embarrassed to be overheard. She looked back over her shoulder to see a student, obviously a couple years younger than her, but not a freshman. She had seen him before though she didn't know him very well. "I suppose I'm not quite so bad at being a witch as I am remembering that I'm a witch." She pointed at her luggage with her hand, snapped, and it began to levitate behind her. "Can I help you with that?" She asked pointing to the young man's bag. She may not know him well, but at the very least she could be courteous.

Location: Mariposa Academy, Front Gate | Company: Elizabeth | OOC: -

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"You, celestial being,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxhave been created to be an angel of the Lord."

He chuckled softly at her remark, she may have a point there. Not remembering to use magic or cast spells was certainly not the same as not properly being able to do so. He shook his head when she offered her help, rejecting it. "No, thank you, I'm fine. I have easier ways of getting to school, but I prefer the old-fashioned way of doing it like this. The more human way, I suppose."

With that he lifted his hand in a small wave, before lengthening his steps again, creating distance between them. "See, my legs are just fine. Perhaps I'll see you around throughout the year." With that he stopped paying attention to her and focussed on the castle up ahead. He couldn't wait to get to his dorm again, to enjoy the familiar environment. He'd missed it all, the feeling of staying in an nearly ancient place. It did something to him, something good, it made him happy. And he wanted to see it as much as possible while he was still able to do so.

It was a whole other year, and he was thrilled to think of what it would bring. It would be amazing, he was sure of it. Cole could feel it in his bones.

Elizabeth

Location: Front Walk / With: Cole/ OOC:

Elizabeth smiled, "Understandable I suppose." She said as she walked on ahead. "See you around." Grendel was at her heels as she walked towards the front of the castle. She walked faster than most of the younger students, not only because she was levitating her bag but also because she was walking along with purpose. There was a certain grace one gained by being an older student. There was no nook or cranny of the castle she did not know and that lead her to stride towards it with confidence. She simply could not wait to get to her room. She had been lucky enough to get it for the fourth year in a row and it had become very much her home away from home. She wondered how many people she would run into that she knew before she got there. She was also curious as to how many new friends she would meet this year. It was a rather exciting thought.

[Consulting Cumbercookie]

I am with: Nobody
I am here: Dorm 3B and the hallway
OOC: Elves in the Tolkien verse have the date of conception as their birthday, are pregnant for a year, and then elves can walk, talk and dance when they're 1 year old. This is why 53 years old equals to 51 years of experience.


Imra had arrived early at Mariposa Academy, earlier than most of the other students. Not only did she detest crowds and making her way through them, she also hated being late. Besides, it gave her enough time to unpack her belongings, hanging her clothes up in the grand closet. Luckily enough, they didn't have to wear uniforms, allowing her to wear her own clothes. She couldn't stand the clothing that were made by humans, they mostly were very itchy to her skin. The clothes she had were loose fitting, yet very feminine and very much to Imra's liking.

Putting her books away on the shelves and having cleared out her suitcase, the young elf then took her seat on her bed, looking up at the ceiling. This would be the start of her third year at the Academy, and would hopefully be more eventful than the previous years. Certainly, her first year had been exciting, but the excitement had soon gone away after two or three months. It stayed school, after all, and it didn't help that she was mentally more advanced than many of the other students. Then again, she was 53 years old and, thus, had 51 years of experience, while all the others had only 10 to 14 years, given that they only started to properly talk and walk when they were five or so. Of course, these were all supernatural beings as well, but they mostly seemed to follow the same ageing process as those of human kind.

Letting out a soft sigh, the elf rose from her seat and made her way to the vanity that was present in her room, checking on her hair and make up, before deciding to go outside. The sun was shining, after all, and she hadn't been here for almost two months. Grabbing one of her brown purses and stuffing a notebook and pen inside it, along with a bottle of water, before slipping back into her slippers and making her way out of her dorm. Turning around, she made sure to lock the door behind her, before making her way down the hallway.

Cole didn't waste too much time after he'd entered the castle, after his lazy walk to the front doors. His dorm waited, and he was getting sick and tired of his luggage. Perhaps he should have allowed the witch to help him out after all.. He sighed softly. He would just drop his suitcase off in his room, and then go see if he could find some of his friends. He'd missed them over the summer.

He whistled softly as he walked the halls, counting the doors in his head. He always seemed to count doors and hallways, wherever he went, it was a good way to remember where he had to go. He knew the way to his dorm by now, but that didn't mean that he could stop himself from counting. In a way it was a useful exercise, it was very relaxing.

After 3 staircases, 18 doors and a couple of hallways, he was close to dorm 3A, the place he'd been calling home since last year. He hadn't expected to see one of the other students there, though. She didn't stay in 3A as well, but it was close enough, 3B to be exact. He saw the girl step out of the door and making sure it was indeed locked, stopping right in his tracks. She was beautiful, as always... They'd talked a couple of times, last year, but he still hardly knew anything about her except her name: Imra. He wasn't even sure what it meant.. But surely it was something fitting for a queen. That was something that all Elvish names seemed to have in common, they were fitting for royalty.

"Hello. How's your summer been?" Cole eventually was able to get out, smiling cheaply. How long had he been standing there? Probably not too long, she hadn't had time to look at him weird.. He would just have to act like he always did, like he just saw her as a possible friend who he hardly talked to. She was just another person, he would just have to keep that up. So far she hadn't suspected anything... Right?

Jack Taylor, Janitor

It was one of Jack's favorite times of the year, the time where all the old students would return, and the new students would join in, all filling the castle with their chatter and teenage problems. It always reminded him of his own time in school. He decided to walk down to greet the new students, as well as his old favorites.

With his hand in his pockets, he leisurely walked down to the front gate. He knew he was supposed to gather the freshmen and go over school rules with them, but he also knew that could wait until later. He rubbed his eyes as he left the school. He leaned against the door post of the front gate, casual smile on his face, greeting the entering students. Everything seemed just as usual.

Location: Front entrance | Company: no one | OOC: IDK, feel free to approach him, I guess.

Ambriel

Ambriel hovered above the school, her large white wings pumping lazily to keep her afloat as she watched the students as they arrived. She had only just arrived herself, having returned to heaven during the school's vacation period. She was relieved when the time came around for her to return to Mariposa. She loved her brethren, but they hardly respected her compared to how the students here listened to her. And when she was here she had more time to herself to focus on training and harnessing her less advanced powers.

This year was going to be slightly different from her previous ones, because she was going to be teaching all of the age groups instead of the higher leveled students as she had before. She was looking forward to it, actually. She liked teaching the history courses here; she had lived through most of it, after all.

With a small smile she began her descent from the clouds, landing softly on the ground near the gates. Her wings disappeared as soon as her feet touched earth, years of practice making the process quick. Her armor settled in place just as quickly, and she brushed back a stray strand of hair from her face. Several students had arrived already, and she was glad to see returning faces as well as new ones. Even a majority of the staff had returned and was lazing around the yard. Perhaps this year would be one more exciting than the last two hundred.

And so she made her way towards her living quarters, taking her time as the day was nice. It was a medium sized room she had been staying in since she came to teach here. It was modernized as time went on, but it had been hers for as long as she could remember. The large windows were the best part of it for her, as it allowed her easy access should she want to go for a fly.

Elizabeth

Location: Front Walk / With: No one/ OOC: None

Elizabeth tried to make her way to her room amidst the droves of students moving along the halls, swapping stories and comparing fall fashion. She smiled as she approached the front gate of the school, here was her first truly familiar face. "Jack!" She shouted over the bustle, waving her hand at him while watching the young students around her dodge her suitcase as it flew overhead. She knew the school janitor quite well and in the past couple years had gotten to know him decently well. He always put up with her mischief making and was quite kind in the fact that he had seen her have a panic attack at the opening ball the year before, and had remained quiet about it. He was a good man and she felt as if it were a godsend that he would be there for her final year.

Gardner J. Faulkner
Literature Teacher Extraordinaire

The things I want to know are in books;
my best friend is the man
who'll get me a book I ain't read.
-- Abraham Lincoln

It might have been the first day of school, but looking at one certain teacher, one might never have known. Gard was sleeping like a dead man, buried beneath a pile of blankets and snoring quite loudly. He had gotten into the habit of sleeping in during the summer and hadn't quite gotten around to breaking it. Luckily for him, someone else in the household was an early riser. Beau had been sleeping in front of the fireplace that took up one corner of her master's bedroom but she had awoken as soon as the sun began to peek over the horizon. She waited patiently for Gard to wake up and to rise from the pile of blankets. When he didn't, she decided to take matters into her own hands...er, paws. Beau stood and stretched herself out before turning and leaping up onto the bed. She trotted around, trying to figure out just where in the blanket pile Gard was hiding. When she found him, the dog grabbed the blankets in her teeth and dragged them off of the sleeping man. It took a few minutes and dragging off several blankets, but soon Gard was discovered. He groaned as the sun streaming through the windows hit him and the face and rolled over, trying to hide from the sunlight. He couldn't hide from Beau, however, and the determined doggie licked the mans' face and barked, an attempt to get Gard to wake up. It was time for school and more importantly, it was time to feed her!

"Alright, alright, I'm up!" Gard mumbled as he sat up and scratched the persistent pup behind the ears, "You happy now shoushou?" Beau barked - she was indeed happy - and jumped down off of the bed. She pranced around impatiently as Gard showered, then got dressed, then finally got his boots on and picked up his bag so that they could go and find food. The dog took off as soon as the door opened, leaving Gard to catch up with her. She ran for the school's dining hall with her master following behind. Beau was a little spoiled and she was fed human food as often as she was given dog food. After a hearty breakfast to fill both dog and werewolf, then two headed outside. It was the first day of school, time to see the students that would be arriving. Both Beau and Gard took a deep breath of the air once they emerged outdoors. The two of them shared a canine nature and a sharp sense of smell; Gard had discovered it was a rather handy way to find things and to find things out. Quite a few new and familiar smells mingled on the breeze. It was nothing less than Gard expected from a new school year. "Let's head out, m'lady," he said, smiling at the dog at his side. Beau barked and as Gard set off down the front walk, she trotted along at his side.
