Dorm Log!

Who: It's OPEN. (Anyone)
What: Dorm hijinks and etc. Whatever you want.
Where: Student and Teacher dorms, and quite possibly beyond.
When: January 20-31
Warnings: Not even gonna.

Remembuh me? The roomie log turned out to be a success, and a lot of really awesome interactions took place. Because of this, I've decided it was about time to post round two. The name has been changed a little because I think it reflects the premise slightly better.

Basically, here's what this is: we all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good portal for those kinds of miscellaneous dorm-shenanigans to take place. Not only does it give your characters the easy chance to meet new people in a laid-back environment but it's a good mechanism for strengthening CR and the like. Some examples can be seen in the link I provided if you fight through the buttload of comments in case I'm sort of unclear.

So how do we start? It's up to you, really. Don't have any plans with anyone else but want your character bugged? Start a thread. It helps to staple dates and times, but you can keep that completely ambiguous if you really don't care/it doesn't matter. So disembark and wreak havoc amongst yourselves! Set up karaoke and sing loudly to further improve relations with dorm neighbors! Jack cylindrical fluorescent light bulbs from the supply closet and fight like Jedi Masters! Build couch forts with other people's laundry! (...ew?) Hold a "study session" with that special someone of yours! Harass teachers and students alike with your inane questions! What bountiful possibilities await you.

Erika chuckled. "She never means harm, but she can certainly be... surprising, as you say. I'll remind her later that there are better ways to escort someone through the greenhouse."

She made a motion for him to follow her, and they could have a nice walk. "Classes and things? How does your semester look this time around?"

Mac shrugged, he seemed to drop the issue already. Pretty forgiving, he is.

And as Erika gestured, Mac followed. Idle talk about classes seemed fine. "It's lookin' good. I got a good set of classes. Plenty to keep me busy."

AND THEN SHE ASKED ALL ABOUT GIOVANNI'S SECRET LIFE wait we already did that.

She nodded along. "That's good. I hope not too busy. It's good to have a break now and again," said the pot to the kettle. "And how has the boxing been?" Erika admittedly was not very in the know about the sport Mac participated in. Was this a busy time of year for it? A slow spurt? "... Does it work in seasons like other games or..."

And then Mac talked so much about boxing, Erika's ear fell off.

Mac perked when boxing was brought up, as always. "Great! It's been goin' great! If I ain't in the ring, I trainin' for it everyday like always." Mac replied happily. Hmm, and a question was asked. "Well, the league I'm in is year round. Matches are scheduled all the time. Boxin' takes no season breaks at the WVBA. Heck, my next match is around the corner."

Well that sounded all very busy. Erika imagined it must have been a tougher lifestyle than Mac let on, but as long as it was something that made him happy. She smiled. "I see! That must be very exciting then."

"It is! You know me, I feel like I'm livin' when I box!" Mac said. "I know it's all alot of work, but it's all worth it, y'know?"

She gave a soft laugh. "I can understand that sentiment perfectly well," she said with a knowing smile. They were not the same thing by any degrees, but every passion could be very satisfying. Erika gave a fond glance around her at the greenhouse. Yes, they could be incredibly worth it.
