Who: Everybody smoochin or punchin.
What: wedding festivities and the apocolypse. Wow!
When: January 5-8th
Where: the Clocktower. The moon? The doors!!
Rating: P for Pow

They had to do it now, that's what they had said. Now, in front of everyone, here at the clocktower. The stage was set for a blast of a time, as gorgeous as it could be at the last minute. The festivities were bound to be a fantastic time, even with looming orange moon filling half the sky.

At least, it was a nice time before the nightmare of a face began to open its mouth in silent congratulations for the happy couple. (Or maybe that was a silent scream.)

It was a nice time before the masks rocketed out of their confines, smashing glass and walls and anything in their way. The door was made for them, and that was where they'd stay, nice and cozy as the apocalypse seemed to open above them.

The clock tower rang the time. As the echoes of the chimes rang out through the air, the clock above door began to move. It was counting down, and with it, the door slowly opened.

Three days.

What to do, Smash Academy?

Who: Everyone.
What: Tiny poisonous berry plants gently encourage you to make out.

What: Surprise! It's Blaze's birthday.
Where: Various places.
When: Nov. 15th
Warnings: Mild language, light petting, birthday cake.

"Happy Birthday, Blaze!"

Sonic produced the roses he'd "rescued" from the shattered greenhouse almost immediately upon her opening the door to her room, sporting a huge grin along with them. Maybe one or two of the blossoms were bruised, but all in all they're looking better than his bouquets of the past.

Who: Sonic, Knuckles, Blaze, Rouge, Marine, Rrrrrrrobotnik
What: Scouting Eggman's new digs
Where: Remember that Volcano that no one talks about? We're back there again.
When: The moon hangs low in the sky. It's daytime.
Warnings: Lava, dangerous robots, smartass commentary

"Welp, at least the lava's hardened since last time."

Sonic mused that to himself, as he kicked a fragment of pahoehoe off the cliff and looked up to the rim of the crater.

"I guess ol' Eggolodon couldn't resist the chance to build a base in a volcano."

Who: A Mountain, Campus and You.
What: Watch your heads, cause someone's not watching their steps. There's destruction afoot.
When: October 4th.
Where: All across campus.

As far as Sundays went, this one was pretty typical, despite the lingering blood moon that persisted well into the morning. If you disregarded that, you could certainly call it lovely. The air held the crisp kiss of autumn's chill, the breeze rustling the fire hued foliage of campus. Eventually the sun's golden rays chased away the moon, bringing with it the deep blue of the sky.

It was entirely possible to forget anything bizarre was happening on such a nice day. Monsters, earthquakes, pssht. Those didn't exist today.

At least not until the first rumble echoed off the edge of campus. And then the next. And the next. And the next. Each one closer, stronger, rattling everything that wasn't fixed in place. The more astute in their panic might have noticed that it was far too rhythmic in its shocks. It was like a heartbeat, or a particularly strong footstep down rickety stairs.

Or perhaps they just noticed that a huge foot had come crashing through the roof of whatever building they happened to be in. Probably a striking detail, that.

The mountains, it seemed, were out for a stroll.



The colossal beast was ambling without a care in the world. The school buildings it was walking over (and through) posed no issue for it. Clearly it was just enjoying the fine Sunday like anyone else would. The mountains it had apparently wandered down from must have looked too boring, or maybe that little wolf thing had been making too much of a racket.

Either way, it was here and it was peacefully walking directly through Smash Academy.

Who: ERRYONE
What: SHOPPING!
Where: THE MALL!
When: NOW! (September 20 - 26)
Warnings: S for SHOPPING

Sometimes... Sometimes people just needed things. Basic necessities, food, clothes, video games... Of course, after the big Angry Birds attack a few days ago, it was likely people needed to replace broken things too. (How did that even happen anyway...)

Whatever the reason, the mall was the place to be.

Who: Eggman, Vivian
What: Eggman and Vivian clear the air about his activities
Where: Eggman's office
When: February 20

Dr. Eggman was a terrible person. That much was obvious. To any who knew him, it was amazing that he was still left to his own devices in FDC for the most part. Very few people were able to breach his exterior of grumpiness and dickishness and actually make him polite and downright pleasant. One of those people was Madam Flurrie. The other was Vivian. The former was obvious, as the love of his life As for Vivian, that was more complex. Originally intending to rebuild her and use her gratitude to use her for his own purposes, she had worked her way under his skin, to the point where he legitimately began to care about her. How to juggle that with his desires for world domination and need to crush his enemies under heel, though, was something he always had trouble with.

And it was about to get more complex.

[[Tag around under the different categories; make top levels, separate into groups. Don't stick to tagging order too much, and break away or threadjack where appropriate! Things are sure to get chaotic before long, so don't feel married to one goal per character.

For reference of the Egg Carrier and layout, Jeff has gathered many resources for you. Eggman's robots will largely be player controlled, so go nuts and kick some robot ass!]]

Who: EVERYONE
What: CUPID BOTS ARE BACK TO CAUSE POOR LIFE CHOICES
Where: EVERYWHERE
When: All day February 14th
Warnings: V for VALENTINES LUST. This may get steamy.

Like a plague of Egypt, the swarm returned, as they always had, as they always would. The Cupid Bots were back. The tiny mechanical cherubs whose microchipped arrows caused often unwanted attraction towards the first person you saw, whose very presence caused such pain, misery, and wonderful tragedy to everyone they encountered. They were ever searching. Ever hunting.

They would find you.

And make you make a fool of yourself.

((As always, attraction lasts for 24 hours and will wear off on the 15th. If you didn't sign up for random or make plans in advance, feel free to jump in and do your own thing anyway! Have fun, and let the misery commence!))

Who: Everyone
What: Revenge of the Return of the Cupid Bots!
Where: Everywhere
When: February 14th
Warnings: H for Heartbreak

Every year this happened like clockwork. Those horrific little robot cherubs armed with hormone altering arrows were starting to appear on campus, carrying with them their 24 hour curse. Senior students and faculty knew these things all too well, and knew well enough to stay away from them. Newer students may have been warned about them. But would everyone be able to avoid these horrid little pranksters?

Anyone struck by their arrow would find themselves irresistibly attracted to the first person they saw. The effect was temporary, thankfully, lasting only 24 hours. But still, a lot can happen in 24 hours...

Who: Eggman, Students and Special Guests
What: Eggman's classes are off to an excellent start
Where: Demolitions classroom
When:Wednesday, September 18

He was ruling the city. He almost ruled the school too. But all of that was over now... Was he bitter? Yes. Very yes. Everything was going so perfectly until that cat interfered with everything. Now, back in this dead end teaching gig, Dr. Eggman was ready to take out his frustrations on all of his poor unfortunate students.

"All right, all right, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP," he grumbled irritably as he began to write on the blackboard.

"My name is Dr. Eggman, and welcome to your first day of DEMOLITIONS. I'm going to be teaching you everything from lighting off firecrackers to decimating cities, and you are ALL GOING TO LEARN SOMETHING FROM THIS OR SO HELP ME YOU LITTLE INGRATES--"

He caught himself on his tangent, taking a deep breath. "Let's just jump right in..."

Who: You and the GLORIOUS ROBOTS OF THE EGGMAN EMPIRE!
What: Robot Martial Law!
Where: FDC!
When: May 24 - June 1
Warnings: POSSIBLE VIOLENCE

Well, it finally happened. Things went too far. A mad scientist was in charge of security in the city, and had declared martial law.

And it was... working???

The streets were quiet as curfew approached. The riots had all but stopped. Crime was on the decline. Perhaps things under. the Eggman Empire wouldn't be so bad after all...

Robots were out on patrol across the city. Would you be one of the ones to rub the militia the wrong way? Did you have a crime to report? Did you have objections to how this whole situation was being handled? Your friendly robot militia would be happy to listen.

I think.
