(( Wait so we're doing...
1.) Match Banquet (like tonight or what?)
2.) Tiny country, or at least tiny enough that it's easy to get around n meet other chars
3.) Rebellion few days (probs like 1/2?) after Banquet
Y/N?
))
(( I think that's what it is.
Tonight as in rp tonight right? ))
(( yes RP's tonight, haha. ))
(1. Yes
2. No but it's okay because of rebellion -- We're gonna meet anyways
3. Yes)
(( Wait wait, no tiny country? Then how are we going to meet? ))
(( but what abt the match banquet meeting wut. ))
(( Also I don't get why we'd all be using air trains if we're not going to one meeting place. Unless we are meeting at one place and I'm just slow ))
(Ok so the Match Banquets are not held necessarily on the same night for every province but it is possible, it could happen- in this case it did. Also, the people from their own provinces attend their own Match Banquets in City Hall (different province, different people, different city hall but same concept). We will meet by the rebellion (refer to the post on page 2.)) ~
--(After the Match Banquets are over, they all go home and go to sleep or whatever. Half a day later, they are taking the air train to get home (from school/work) and it stops suddenly because the Rising has taken over. OR there are separate trains and they ALL stop working and the Rising officers come and take a select group of people (our characters) on an air ship to the rebellion and THAT is how we meet. Second suggestion makes more sense.))

((So...Like will there be like actual matches going on? Or do we just say the character went home after knowing what their match was or...? I think I'm understanding everything else, it's just the banquet itself that I'm a little confuzzled about handling.))
(( Also, why would the rising take a select group and what would happen during that phase? Is it just like keeping people hostage because some of the people aren't for the rising.
We could also do a rebellion type thing that gradually comes up rather than have it at once. Especially since we should get to know our setting as none of us have read the book
We have a lot of characters so they could all still be in different provinces and some would be in the same ones. ))

(If you want. I think it would be a good idea to actually like RP the Banquets.)

(( i feel like it'd be good for the chars to meet up at the banquet tho, because it's like one of the few times they will get to interact without Society weighing them down? Especially if Rebellion comes then a whole lotta chiz is 'bout to go down. omg this is so confusing. ))
((GUYS ?!Geez why don't you just change the characters province so they all come from the same place?! AND after the banquet which will be attended by all because they are all in the same city we go on with Subway's plan with the rising and trains. And after we get this started with those characters from the same province you can make other ones from ...other places ... but if we wanna start this we should all be in the same place at least for a few hours ))

(( Lol ruki to save the day :D I would say we should all be near the outer province though since Isaac's coming to bash the party and he's supposed to be in that area -see map-
So that would be:
Keya, Grandia, Camas, or Acadia. Also the Carving but I don't know what that is.))

(( yeah, we could just all be in the same province unless your planning ur backstory on the province?????? AH. LETS JUST BE IN THE SAME PROVINCe N GET STARTED UNLESS UR CHAR'S PROVINCE IS IMPORTANT TO UR DEVELOPMENT?? *flails ahhh we're filling up like 2 pages talking bout this*))
((I don't care what province we're in. Just get started!))
((Okay then, I'll just start with getting ready for the Banquet? Okay here goes))
Gabriel:
I grin when I find a proper blazer, this'll definitely help me blend in, I think to myself as I put them on to see if they fit. I nod, satisfied and look in the mirror. Well, as much as I love the pink in my hair that isn't exactly Model Citizen material. I ruffle my hair to get the brown to cover it up and pull on a beanie. Better strange fashion choices than outright, "Here I am, an Abberation."
(just imagine him with a beanie :)) )
(And then they all screamed " OOOO Thanks Ruki but we don't actually need those"
And then Ruki said " I know I only did those because I am a no lifer with nothing else to do")

(( more like, squeeea thanks ruki now I can see Alex/Gabe's face on every RP post :3 ))
I took a look at the window as I poured the fresh coffee in my favorite mug. I took it and rushed to the garage. It was already afternoon but I just woke up ... ah typical me. I took out of my large sweater a small electronic pad and plugged it into the wall . In the blink of an eye an elevator door opened and I went in pressing the only button inside. As the doors opened again I saw the automatic lights turning on inside my little secret lab. I placed my mug on my working table and as I touched it with my hand a tool box went up from the ground. Weapon manufacturing...what a strange hobby for a cute, innocent girl like me.

Navain:
I put on my dress for the third time that day and took it off once more. It was a blue with silver work on the top a black waist, and white lace sleeves. Mom came in my room. "You know, you don't have to if you don't want to." She whispered so that no one but I could hear. I looked at her shocked. "Never mind. Put the dress on. You look absolutely stunning with it on than off."
I smiled as she left and put the dress on again for the last time. Mom came back and fixed my hair so that half of it was tied and the rest was down over my shoulders. "Ready?"
I nodded and went down to the car, ready to be taken to my match.
((Actually, Thanks Ruki, could actually use those xD))
Kendra:
"Mom, can't I please not wear a dress? Can't I wear this?" I said holding up a white shirt and tie. "You know, with like a jacket and pants?" I hated skirts, they made me feel so exposed. Mom didn't see it like that.
"Kendra, you know how your father feels about this hobby of yours." She whispered. I wasn't sure why she called it a hobby. "Could you just put the dress on? Because I cannot let you leave this house until you have that dress on."
I groaned. "But Mom! Isn't that like false advertising?" She just gave me a look that said she wasn't in the mood for it. I sighed and changed into it. Had to be the girliest garment in existence. Mom didn't let me look in the mirror until she did my hair up in a bun.
"Mom, you know this isn't a wedding, right?" I asked. She didn't give me an answer, just a stern look.

(Gah! Thanks Ruki! I love 'em! Also we could all be in Central... ?)
I walk home and mom and dad are at the table, eating their dinners. Mom looks up when I come in. She smiles. "Hi, honey. Your dress arrived a few minutes ago. It's looking fabulous!" This was mom's first time seeing the dress, since she wasn't there when I picked it. Her eyes dart up to the tiara on my head. "Mackenzie," she asks cautiously, "Where did you get that ?" I see a hint of worry in her eyes. I look to dad, still smiling, his face without a trace of worry. "I found it," I say. "On the beach. I'm wearing it to the Match Banquet." Even though we're only allowed one artifact. Who cares ? This isn't an artifact, anyways. It's an accessory. I look at myself in my compact mirror. Another artifact. Also illegal."It's beautiful. It's rare. It's fit for a queen." I say, and mom smiles once again. "I suppose you can. Come now, let's eat and get you ready!"
Once we're finished eating, we don't even bother to throw the foilware into the recycling tube. We hurry to my room to get the dress. I glow when I see it. "It's beautiful," I breathe. "It's just as perfect as the first time." I reach out and touch its fabric, soft and light. I slip it on and put my hair up high on my head and look into the mirror. I place the tiara carefully on my head. "Now, don't I look like a queen ?"
(Gonna create another character soon. Also, Angel, no cars, air trains. Just to clear things up.)

((YAaaay! Thanks, Ruki!!))
Felicia:
After lunch, I headed upstairs to get ready. After taking a quick shower, I stood for a minute staring at the purple dress on my bed. Grandma had chosen it for me. It was beautiful and I honestly loved it...The only problem is ... it felt different...She wasn't here to see me in it.
After getting into it, I heard a knock on the door before mom opened it slowly. She peeked in and seeing me in the dress, smiled. "You look beautiful."
I smiled a little at her, "Will you help me with my hair?"
She nodded and started putting it up in a half-up style with beautiful small rose jewels here and there. I only put on very little makeup. Just enough to give an effect.
Looking at my reflection, I saw dad standing in the doorway. He had tears in his eyes as he said, "Felicia...Fel...You look gorgeous, princess."
I turned around to face him and mom.
He came over to me and opened a small velvet box he had been holding and took out a necklace that had a purple stone in the form of a heart and put it around my neck. Mom held back tears and said with a sad smile, "Your...grandma wanted you to have this today...She left you a note."
I took the note from mom and read it:
Felicia, my sweetie, I know you're going to be the jewel of the ceremony. Elegant, beautiful, kind and soft. I don't think they'll allow me to see you, but you must know I'll always be there for you. Especially tonight. When I attended my ceremony, I didn't believe in love. And yes, I met your grandpa and knew we were meant to be. This was the necklace I wore on that night.
Now I give it to you. Wear it tonight and maybe you will find your soulmate, too. Just make sure to look around.
Love you.
