Dorm Log: Scorching Summer Edition

[butterbelieveamanspromise]

Who: Who else.
What: Dorm log!
Where: Student and Teacher dorms, and quite possibly beyond campus. Frankly? I don't care where. Go have fun, kids.
When: The span of June 14 - June 28th. Pick a date.
Warnings: Yeah, it got pretty naughty in here.

Ripped off the last one and all its friends: Basically, here's how this works. We all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good venue 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. It's easy!

Feel free to begin in any way you please! Plan with (a) fellow player(s) if you'd like! Or, set up a thread and wait for characters to bite! Whatever you want. It can all be yours if you make a thread. Stay up all night watching reruns of Teenage Mutant Ninja Squirtles? Break out the ice cream and industrial fans to beat the heat? Get a bad suntan while you're asleep with the help of your friends? Whatever you get your bad self up to. Your good self is welcome, too. Now put your copy of Animal Crossing: New Leaf down for one second and tag this thing!

"I knew it!" Her face lit up proudly, though the excitement at meeting a real life princess was quickly stamped out as she realized that it meant that everything Eirika said about the royal life probably came from experience after all.

"Oh, wait... so everything you said was the real truth, huh..."

Eirika didn't reply immediately. Not because she didn't have the intention to, but mostly because she was trying to figure out how she wanted to say things.

"Every princess is different, Mary," she began with a kinder look. "It is true that I have my obligations I must see to. It is also true that I would agree the prosperity of my people comes before mine. And yes, sometimes I must put my feelings aside for the sake of others."

She smiled a little, mostly as she thought of Innes. "Yet the same holds for banquets and soirees. Princes compliment and ride their steeds. Jousting matches occur. Courtships ensue. The stories are not particularly inaccurate, just more romanticised than what they may actually be."

"I didn't know it would all be so complicated..."

She let her head droop a bit, staring down at the ground. Even if not everything she'd read had been untrue, it sure made it seem a lot more daunting. Definitely not the kind of life she was dreaming of having anymore. There was probably something else fun and care-free she could do out there, right?

Eirika felt her heart sink a bit. For all she'd tried in keeping some romance with nonfiction thrown in, she'd not done well at all. Was she so jaded about her position? She felt as if she seemed to be.

Reaching over, she smoothed Mary's hair, as if to catch her attention.

"All things in life require effort and hard work," she coaxed the younger girl. "It is only through our own strength that we can truly feel alive. Commoner or nobility, at our very cores, we are all the same. If you believe yourself to be a princess, Mary, then you are."
