Kev raised an eyebrow in pure disbelief. He seemed to have some sort of retort ready on his tongue (rather, he pretended he did because Kev had never been great shakes at insults) before he seemed to stop himself, shaking his head slightly in exasperated disbelief at the other's behavior. "No, thank you... Truthfully, Kev is trying to get us into a dorm... But I am rather doubtful if Father will ever agree," he said slowly, tone cool and emotionless. It was as if his earlier showing of humanity had merely been some sort of mirage.
Man, this whole acting-like-Will was hard. But Kev was doubling his efforts!! And so, hopefully, this charade would remain without the other noticing anything further.

Marlow was ready for it, the cold quip from Will, or even that icy stare that he sometimes received for his bad behavior, the one that made it seem that the boy could look right through him. But when neither came, he couldn’t help but be elated, especially when he saw that tiny - if feigned - hesitation, as if he were holding it back. “You’re softening up a bit,” he observed, tucking his thumbs in his pockets as he began to back away, “It’s because you liiiiiiiike meeeeeee......” He actually giggled then, and shook his head. It was too bad that he was so against him coming to meet his father. He’d talk the old coot into letting them stay at the dorms before he even realized what was going on.

Kev shook his head slowly and replied, "...Lack of sleep. I assure you by tomorrow I will have several unpleasant things to say to you...." Whether he was truly serious or it was meant to be a joke was left to the other's imagination, for Kev had finally gotten Will's strange cool disposition of flat, icy words down to pat. He glanced up at the other, his bright blue eyes glittering with a sort of dark humor -- something that would have been rare, had this been the actual Will. In fact, it was made even more "rare" by the fact that it was accompanied by the slight upturning of one corner of his mouth. Perhaps Marlow would get the idea that "Will" thought he was special.

There was definitely a spark of something, and as Marlow had no real reason to suspect that Will was not really Will, he felt his heart pitter patter with delight. “That’s alright,” he teased in a tone that bordered on sensual, “I like it when you’re mean to me.” No one was as cool as Will in Marlow’s book, and he stepped away again, blowing the boy a kiss. “It was fun. Do me a favor and ask Kevin to meet me before class tomorrow? Same meeting place as yesterday.” He had to share the good news about his date, and barter for another one. “Bye bye!” No kiss today, or anything further than that. He had to be careful with Will, wait until he had obvious permission to do whatever he pleased.
((should we skip to tomorrow or?))

((Uhmmmm... Sure... Snorky should be joining in in a bit. Which makes me happy because his char is effing awesome. *giggle* xD ))
It was the same morning as always. The same food selection - which was to say, whatever Kev felt like cooking. This morning it was some sort of omlette with a sallad and soup. Will never really paid attention to exactly what he was eating (or perhaps he did, although he never seemed to take much notice -- he lived on the dangerous side of life by assuming that whatever Kev made was perfectly safe to consume). It was the same in many ways for Will. The same procedure of eating with a book pressed against nearly to his nose, glasses continually sliding down only to be prodded back up, and Kev pressed up against his brain, his usual slew of morning complaints and ecstatics being issued from hurried, pink lips.
The morning, however, was not the same for the younger of the infamous twins. Although it was true that Kev was prone to being in one of two states in the morning (one of them being exceptionally un-morning person and groggy, while the other wa exceedingly hyper) and that the twin had chosen the more eccentric route this morning, there was something more to it. He had been on a date. And not just any date. Oh, no. It had been Marlow. Marlow. The fact that the other boy though Kev was Will was only a minor detail. What really seemed to matter to the boy was that there would (hopefully) be more dates to come and that, hopefully, those dates would be more... eventful than the first one.
All in all, the morning was much as was usual for Will (although he did note a slight deviation from his brother's normal behavior). And so the twins made their way to school, this day walking (as was usual for them). Kev seemed very bubbly and clingy. For one thing, he wouldn't simply let Will walk with him. Oh, no. Kev had his arms tightly wound around Will's neck from behind and every now and then he would accidentally step on his studious sibling's heels. Will didn't seem to mind, though, and continued to read as they walked.
Amazingly enough, they eventually made it to school (and quite early, as well, as was usual).
((Oh how I love them. I had almsot forgotten how much fun they could be when together in the excitement of wronging Marlow. xD;;; ))

((LOL, you guys are making me blush. xd ))
A dramatically swishing black cape.
A vest, the hue of brown autumn leaves, ornamented with five golden buttons down the middle.
Black formal trousers that emphasize the wearer's lithe legs.
A dashing black necktie.
An even more dashing bow to adorn the hair.
An overcoat that reaches down to the thighs.
Obsidian dress shoes that could show a reflection just as well as a mirror could.
Conclusion? ...... Basil Anastas Stokej III was perfection in mortal form- at least, he thought, nay, knew so.
Today, in honor of his first day at the Academy, he had decided to impress the masses with his "Phantom of the Opera"-esque outfit. Never mind that the Academy had already gone through the Orientation for new and transfer (such as him) students, nor that classes had already been started. For Basil, the world began and ended as soon as he entered a room or left it. Therefore, as the first day of school, he wished to ....leave a splash.
All the better if the other students gossiped about him- networking was ever so useful in gaining followers. He cackled maniacally.
"Um....sir? We have arrived at your school," the limosine driver hesitantly announced. The last driver to interrupt the eccentric youth whilst in his thoughts had had to relocate to Turkey in order to escape his wrath.
"You would not open the door for Us, driver?" Basil sneered.
"Ulp! Right away sir!" The door was immediately opened, and Basil began the trek towards the Admissions office without even acknowleding the driver, or the students around him. Chin up, shoulders straight, eyes forward, and......glide.

Not many students, especially the very wealthy ones, stayed at the dorms on campus, despite how luxurious they were. Marlow, however, was not one of those people. He liked how convenient it was. He didn’t have to rush to school because, well, because he was already there - and if people needed to meet with him, they knew his address. When he slept, he had pleasant dreams, as he had just gone out on a romantic date with one of the Riddle Twins, and when he awoke the next morning, he swore that he could hear the sound of birds singing outside his window. That was nice, though soon it seemed more like squawking. Loud, screeching squawking.
“SHUT UP ALREADY!” The American boy shouted as he threw open his window, and the birds dispersed, giving him his first moment of peace for the day as he stared out into the gray, overcast world of England. “God,” he muttered, stepping back into the room, “Why couldn’t there have been a boarding school in Maui?”
His dressing ritual went without complication. Chartreuse pajamas were discarded for a designer tweed suit, the sort that was made to look like something from a thrift store but for a hundred times the price, and he put on a wide blue retro tie that both clashed with and complimented the brown fabric of his outfit. With his hair combed to one side, his somewhat dorky but unmistakably cool look was completed, and he stepped out into the hallway, only to be met by his new “assistant”, a first year boy that he assumed was named Percy.
“Ok Perce,” he greeted the boy by slamming the door behind him and making his way out into the general campus. “What’s on the agenda today?” The younger boy opened his mouth to speak, but Marlow was too quick for him, snatching the handwritten paper he was about to read out loud and skimming it quickly. “Boring boring boring... Gym class? How did that happen?” Obviously there was a mistake somewhere, as he wasn’t about to let himself get injured playing those made up games like lacrosse and rugby. “Never mind.” Stopping, he gave the schedule back to Percy and adjusted his tie, spotting a particularly nice looking pair of twins across the way. “I’ll just wing it today.” Well, he did that most every day.

((This is official. I love Basil. xD I seriously do. And, of course, I love Seamus and Leif and Marlow, too. Geez... how do you two do it, seriously? *tackles Snorky and Cammy* 8D Love! <33
And as a side note... the new Gaia set came out just for Basil. xDDD;;; ))
Kev poked his head out momentarilly from the midst of Will's hair as he caught sight of something... someone... who was quite out of place. It was quite amusing, really, and Kev could hardly keep from laughing. Now, that was an actor. He just had to be. "Hey... hey, Will. Lookie, it's Siegfried ((he's refurring to a prince from a fairytail))."
Will glanced up for a sparce moment before his attention returned to the book planted before himself. After a moment of silence, he replied, "...Looks more like an immitater to me." Of course, the older of the twins hardly ever had anything positive or remarkable to say about anyone... His opninions were, for the most part, quite harsh. And yet, somehow, people still flocked to him.
((Pleh... that was utter crap. D: ))

((I love your guyses characters too! It's a love fest in here! heart I didnt even see that post until now! Its great, sorry if my thoughts are disjointed, my teeth hurt. sad ))
Marlow had been doing his best “dapper lad” walk - a little bounce in his step and a little swagger in his hips-in a beeline towards Will and Kev when he found himself distracted. Distracted was perhaps too small a word for it. After all, the presence of a man in a full, rather flamboyant costume such as Basil was enough to make him stop in his tracks, completely dumbfounded for several moments. Was it spirit day or something? He didn’t remember them even -having- a spirit day last year, but he was a freshman then, and there was that rather mesmerizing senior who had spent quite a bit of time “tutoring” him in the art room....
He cleared his throat. Now was obviously not the time to be thinking about things like that. Not when he was in a very serious, steady relationship with the boy of his dreams. Of course, Will probably didn’t realize that they were going steady, but Marlow was confident that he would decide so soon. He waited on the other side of the path, deciding it was best for the crazy guy in the weird get up to walk past him before he approached Will - as to avoid catching his attention.

((Yeah, I know. It's a total luv fest in here.... who will jump who? LOL
I was just checking out those outfits and you're right Mie, they WERE made for Basil. XD But they're ridiculously expensive- 50k on average for a shirt! O.O))
Out of the corner of his eyes (his very noble and distinguished eyes, if he did say so himself), he noticed that he was garnering alot of attention. Most of the peasants (in comparision to a future king this lot was all doomed for failure as mere replacements for their CEO fathers) seemed to be awed, and were twittering about with their cohorts.
All but three.
Basil hypothesized (the Stokej family did not assume, for doing so made an "a**" out of "u" and "me") that the one in the tacky pinstripes was merely a fool. A blind fool. A blind fool that did not raise up his face to gaze upon the visage of the most holy of holy creatures that had, or ever would, grace his presence.
And the other two. Twins. How....quaint. He wondered if that they seemed to be able to converse with eachother; for all that they draped themselves on eachother, he might have believed they were a case of Siamese twins sharing a brain.
However, where there were some obvious sources of rebellion in his future (those three did not seem like the type to easily succumb to his inevitable rule), there grew the seeds for more. Drastic times called for drastic measures.
"Students, Faculty, Passerby! LEND ME YOUR EARS!" It was this speech opener that he used to garner the attention of the masses- although, standing on the pedestal of the statue of the Founder of the School would help considerably with allowing himself to be viewed.

[[Edited]]
As Kev's eyes trailed along with the gliding, elaborate figure of the man he had now dubbed as "Siegfried," he caught sight of Marlow. A broad grin swept across his lips, which was accompanied with a faint (and barely noticeable) flush. However, it would likely be mistaken for Kev's usual excitement (for the younger of the twins was quite adamantly excited about nearly everything). He detatched an arm from around Will's neck to wave at the bleach-haired American. "Ooooooi. Hey, hey~~!" he called, his pearly whites shining in the morning light. "Maaaarlooooooooooooow," he chorused, drawing the syllables out for as long as his breath would hold. "How's everything?" he asked, in his usual cheery fashion.
His calls, however, cut through those of the supposed Prince, who was currently attempting to adress all those around him. As per usual, Kev paid next to no attention to any sort of authoritative figure. After all, Kev's idea of status was... nill. He knew he should look down on those with less status that him... but he didn't. He had quite a few "normal" friends. He wasn't conceited, but, then again, he never really thought about that sort of thing, either, so it was understandable.
((G'night, guys. Le father is kicking me off. D: //3 ))

“Ooohhh...” the young man crooned to himself. It -was- Spirit day, as evidenced by the fact that there was about to be some sort of speech or proclamation. He couldn’t do much but scratch the back of his head and stare at the guy who was speaking. Was that costume a rental, or did he have it custom made for this event? Neither would surprise him. Part of him wanted to speak, but he held his tongue. He at least had to figure out what was going on before he became obnoxious - he didn’t want to put on a bad show in front of the twins, after all.
“Hey Kevin,” Marlow responded with a bright smile, then looked past him to wiggle his fingers in a sultry hello to Will. He kept his voice down as he spoke to Kev (who was the least likely of the two to roll his eyes at him and ignore his question), since he didn’t want to be rude if there was something special going on, and he gestured at the new guy. “So what’s up with this, huh? Spirit week or what?” He was really stuck on that issue.
(good night Mie!))

((G'night Mie, G'night Daanish! I need get off too, I should probably start my homework. >.< I wish it were the weekend already! *pouts*))
He supposed he had enough attention in order to begin his speech. Tapping his hand under his chin with a dramatic flair, he cleared his throat, as if to begin singing an opera.
"You have all been gathered here to begin your educations, in which you shall, in the future, reap your benefits from. However, there are those of us that are destined for great things- myself, for example. Especially myself." He paused for a moment to smirk at the audience.
"Should there by any of you that wish to .....expand your horizons, gain more....contacts, and widen your social circle, I bid you welcome to accompany me. We are schoolmates here- united, we are bound to suceed in our unique goals.
I am Basil Anastas Stokej III, of the twelfth grade. Should you wish to contact me, I bid you approach me, through person or through correspondance, and we shall work out an agreement. Thank you, and have a prosperous day!"
Basil bowed to the crowd with a flair (doing so upon a statue was of no difficulty for him- he was graceful in ALL mediums, be it land, air, or sea), lightly stepped off of the makeshift podium, and began to glide off to where he knew the Principal's office was- he would assign him a secretary, and he would recieve his schedule there.

Kaori woke the next morning. He stretched and gave a cute yawn as he rubbed at his eyes. Yesterday had gone rather well even though he had only gone for half the day. With another yawn, Kaori climbed out of bed and took a shower, brushed his teeth, and combed and dried his long hair. It was always a long task, but it was worth it.
“Hmm, now what to wear?” Kaori asked as he stood in front of his closet. He had a few dresses and skirts that were nice, but he finally decided on a Chinese dress. He figured that since he showed of his Japanese heritage on the first day, today he would show his Chinese side. He put on the green and silver embroidered dress and fashioned his hair in a simple upward style, a few dark waves framing his face and eyes. A bit of pink lip gloss and he was ready to go.
Just like the day before, Kaori received odd glances, but of course he was used to that after cross dressing for three years. He tilted his head to the side as he saw a senior making a speech to the students. Intrigued, Kaori went to listen in just as the boy jumped down from where he was standing.
“Aww, I didn’t get to hear what he said.” Kaori pouted and went to go get some breakfast before classes started.
