Title: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on February 10, 2007, 03:11:00 PM Monday October 22nd - Friday October 26th, 2007 In the News Disaster was narrowly averted Saturday when a flag pole toppled over at a high school football game. No one was injured due to the timely intervention of what some people reported as a dragon. the creatured appeared out of thin air and rammed into the falling pole, sending it flying into the air and over the bleachers to the parking lot. The mysterious dragon vanished as quickly as it arrived. Authorities believe the pole's collapse was no accident and think it may be connected to the collapse of some bleachers a few days before. Both incidents are still under investigation. School News Only three weeks left until Homecoming. Get your tickets now, on sale in the student store. This is Principal Landis speaking. I have been notified by the Oak Park Police that the person responsible for the photographs of the girls shower has been arrested. He's been expelled and will not be permitted to attend Oak Park High in the future. That is all. School Talk Elrod Janush is dating a Freshman, some girl from the band. Megan Howell has already dug her claws into the new Quaterback. That girl goes through boys so fast they ought to call her racecar. It's getting to the point that almost everyone at school knows Sylvia on site. They associate her with the school paper, and it seems like lots of people say "Hi" to her in the halls for some reason. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on February 10, 2007, 03:15:41 PM By lunch time has Megan heard from Darala about how her meeting with her attorney went? Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on February 10, 2007, 03:23:59 PM During home room Sarah asks Megan to get her in touch with Lisa sometime today if possible. Either in person or over the phone. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on February 10, 2007, 04:20:17 PM Megan will tell Sarah she will arrange what she can, pointing out that any in person meeting would have to be after school as Lisa now attends Fenwick. She'll offer the idea of maybe trying to have Lisa come over to her parents later that evening (after cheerleading and the Con Debate team meeting). Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on February 10, 2007, 04:23:26 PM "That would be great!" Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: cassbackward on February 10, 2007, 05:45:47 PM People are saying hi to Sylvia? This, of course, makes her more paranoid. She'll try to parlay her newfound celebrity into getting to know Logan a little. If there's ever an opening to do so, she'll make some conversation, try to get a personal sense of what he's like. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Gaea on February 10, 2007, 06:21:57 PM Seth has a gig on tuesday, He's going to extend an invitation to the scooby gang. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on February 10, 2007, 07:51:02 PM Probably unnecessary reminder: Colin at the game saw something that hasn't been disclosed yet. If Logan Darklighter happens around the Usual Suspects table, Colin has been wanting to give him a nice look with the ghost light for quite some time. On sunday, if the public library was open, Colin went there to make some research. - He checked the yearbooks for the other four rapists, especially for the odd one. - He looked through the phonebook to find their addresses. - He got a lot of change and, from a public phone, he tried calling those with the same surname of the people he's looking for, each time saying "Hello, I'm a classmate of XXX's. Is he home?", excusing himself when it was the wrong number, and quickly hanging up when it was the right one. Of course, if the library was closed, he'll do that on monday just after school. Both Sammy's photos and Sarah's costume sketches will be ready some time this week, but not on monday. He'll also try to keep an eye on Sylvia. She worries him.

Someday, in a senior yearbook, Sylvia will be voted "Most Likely To Go Over To The Dark Side." And Colin will be "Most Likely To Go After Her." Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on February 10, 2007, 08:54:29 PM I'm trying to find out how much Colin can overstretch himself before snapping. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on February 10, 2007, 11:00:56 PM Quote from: thevshi on February 10, 2007, 03:15:41 PM By lunch time has Megan heard from Darala about how her meeting with her attorney went? She left you a voice mail saying the meeting went well and that they talked to the police. It looks like everything will work out okay.

You can do this in the halls if you like, you're bound to be able to find him for this. His aura looks pretty much like everyone else's, nothing special.

All the boys are in the Fenwick Year books, except the baseball player since this is his first year there. They are seniors; Leo Johnson James Hurley Leland Palmer (the creepy one) Hank Jennings Ted Williams(?) OOC: I forget if this is his last name? You can make your prank calls and find the right addresses without too much trouble.

Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: BaboonBill on February 12, 2007, 12:22:59 PM Are guys flirting with Sylvia, or is it just a general hello by everyone she passes by?

Just a general hello from most people. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: BaboonBill on February 12, 2007, 12:26:25 PM Thanks! :) Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on February 12, 2007, 12:34:24 PM We've narrowly avoided a "dragons go on a killing spree in a high school in downtown Chicago" in the 6 o'clock news. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: BaboonBill on February 12, 2007, 01:15:11 PM Who me? :angel: Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on February 12, 2007, 02:06:23 PM I think once Pip ate one whole student he'd be pretty full. And sick. You know what these kids are eating. It's enough to turn a dragon green... or some color that is unhealthy for dragons. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: cassbackward on February 12, 2007, 02:10:21 PM Puce. Puce is unhealthy for everyone. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Gaea on February 12, 2007, 07:12:05 PM Or Mauve....Mauve seems like a good sick color. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on February 12, 2007, 10:14:45 PM Monday night, after Cheerleading and any Con Debate meeting and dinner and doing some homework (about 40 minutes, ie six hours woth of homework :)), Megan is going to suit up and go out. She wants to call Kevin and see what the PCD has on Spark, if he has been suspected of any crimes or not. Then she will run around for a bit looking for people to help.

She wants to call Kevin and see what the PCD has on Spark, if he has been suspected of any crimes or not. Then she will run around for a bit looking for people to help. Kevin tells her that Spark has been out of sight since your last little run-in with him. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on February 15, 2007, 09:33:25 AM Sarah texts Donnie Monday evening: `I've got some fingerprints to check out. Laticia's. 1 of the oddball tryouts for cheer. Don't think she did it but at least we can remove her from suspect list. See you tomorrow.` Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Kat on February 15, 2007, 10:38:43 AM Sammy sends a message to the scooby gang very late on Monday night. She woke up with an idea. `Hey, I might have a way to approach Candace about the cheerleading thing. Sarah and I interviewed Laticia about the overcoming disabilities thing. We can say we want to talk to Candace about Laticia's tryout -- was it fair, etc? We just make it seem like we want to talk about somebody else, not her. If she is Pinky, she might slip. If nothing else, maybe we can get a pen or something else with her prints on it. Colin, can you come along and check her out with your Sight? Sammy` Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: cassbackward on February 15, 2007, 12:37:56 PM Quote from: Kat on February 15, 2007, 10:38:43 AM `Hey, I might have a way to approach Candace about the cheerleading thing.

Syl.` Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on February 15, 2007, 12:52:31 PM `If ne1 has ? then txt them. Sammy & I can ask them tomorrow.` Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Gaea on February 18, 2007, 05:43:39 PM `I don't have Text on this thing. My Rent's won't pay 4 it. And I didn't want 2. I do take calls though. Seth.` J/K he has text messages. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on February 18, 2007, 07:57:53 PM Colin won't answer any message on monday evening. I'm not sure he will be at school on tuesday either. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on February 22, 2007, 01:59:58 PM Sometime early this week, Colin will call a newspaper, probably the Tribune, to offer Uther's pic. I don't need it needs a thread. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Kat on February 24, 2007, 09:31:31 AM After school on Wednesday, Sammy goes straight home, up the stairs, and into her room. Her bag and coat dumped unceremoniously into a pile by her desk, she kicks off her shoes, climbs into bed, and pulls the blankets way over her head. Last time I checked, sleep doesn't require a thread. :laugh: Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Kat on March 02, 2007, 08:12:56 AM Sammy and Elrod went out on Thursday night. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on March 02, 2007, 08:40:55 AM Thrusday after cheerleading (just before going to the training session with Jack) Megan will go over to see Lisa and help her look for her hoodie (if its still missing). That can be in a thread, or just summerized here, which ever you prefer SO :) Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 02, 2007, 09:30:21 AM Well, it's totally missing, and she has no idea where it got to. That's about it. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on March 02, 2007, 09:34:28 AM That like totally bites. ;D Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 02, 2007, 09:38:37 AM Quote from: thevshi on March 02, 2007, 09:34:28 AM That like totally bites. ;D Totally! Also of not, Thevsi reminded me that I had said Homecoming was the 10th, which means next week wouldn't be homecoming week. If this is true (I need to check my calendar) then I'll update the post accordingly.

Very relaxed time. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Kat on March 02, 2007, 10:09:45 AM Quote from: secretoracle on March 02, 2007, 09:41:25 AM Quote from: Kat on March 02, 2007, 08:12:56 AM Sammy and Elrod went out on Thursday night. Dinner and a movie went well. Very relaxed time. Sammy gave Elrod a truthful but also very detail-light version of what made her zoom out of the coffee house. Two of her friends who were dating got into a fight and probably broke up, she was asked to go after one of them, and it took her a while to find him and let him talk. By the time things were settled down, it was way too late to do anything but go home. One point / question was put on the table: the fight was about lying, and about badly communicated expectations. Sammy's going to lay it flat out: does he think of them as being exclusive or more open ended than that? She just wants to make sure she understands whatever rules he thinks might be in place, if there are any at all. For herself, she has decided to enjoy whatever they've got going "right now" and not worry a hell of a lot about the future. If things change, she can worry about it then.

He's on the same page as she is. Let's do now and let tomorrow worry about itself. No rules, no expectations. enjoy our time and each other's company. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Doc on March 04, 2007, 07:26:42 PM Has any newspaper bought Colin's photo of Uther saving the cheerleaders? Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 04, 2007, 07:35:54 PM Quote from: Doc on March 04, 2007, 07:26:42 PM Has any newspaper bought Colin's photo of Uther saving the cheerleaders? The Tribune would have bought it. A good front page shot like that would probably net you $300.00 Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Gaea on March 04, 2007, 07:39:47 PM JJ didn't buy it and berate you...? Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 04, 2007, 07:41:11 PM Quote from: Gaea on March 04, 2007, 07:39:47 PM JJ didn't buy it and berate you...? Sorry, wrong city. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: Kat on March 05, 2007, 08:29:33 PM Friday afternoon, Sammy goes back to the Science Club meeting. Two weeks in a row! Omigosh! She doesn't have anything to show and tell herself, but she is at a minimum politely interested in what the others are doing. No agenda, no fact gathering, this is just about being around interesting stuff and smart people. She's happy to be around them because, to the best of her knowledge, none of them are paranormals or setting themselves up to be heroes (or villains). Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: thevshi on March 06, 2007, 07:52:28 AM Is this week's football game Friday or Saturday? Which ever it is, Megan is going to organize a shopping trip/going to the moives for the girls on the squad for the other day. She is sure to invite Sylvia and do her best to try to convince her to come along. :) Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 06, 2007, 08:26:01 AM Game is Saturday this week. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: opensesame on March 06, 2007, 09:15:14 AM Is it an away game? I didn't know if they alternate or if it's got some sort of wacky schedule. Title: Re: Chapter 30 Post by: secretoracle on March 06, 2007, 10:31:12 AM I think it's an away, but I'd need to check my calendar for that. Powered by SMF 1.1.4 | SMF © 2006-2007, Simple Machines LLC
