SICK. Again. Throat is on fire. Resting in bed for most of the day.
Thank you. ; u ;
❝LUCKY, LUCKY.❞ The school rumbled once...then once more. A few seconds after, lightning flashed above Bellhurst High and the school was rocked with a minor Earthquake that everyone inside could feel...Except it wasn't an Earthquake; it was something else entirely. Something shifted, and from inside of the auditorium you could hear a series of loud crashes. It was as if pieces of the building were literally being torn away. If you were to try to exit the auditorium, from any exit, you would be greeted by a literal brick wall. Anyone outside of the auditorium but still in the school might as well not exist. There is no way to contact those inside from the outside, or vice versa. For now, try not to waste your time finding a way out. Try instead to figure out why you're here.
3WATER'S RISING!! 【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪ !!】 She was so close. So close...Thomas was right in front of her...and then something stopped her--no, something YANKED her back. Pain shot up her spine as she landed with a groan. The door slammed shut with a wet gust of wind, and Thomas was gone. Why? ...No, WHO? WHO had stopped her?! She was so fucking close, she didn't give a shit she didn't want any of this, she just wanted it all to END. She pulled herself up onto her knees, ready to violently attack the one who had prevented her from leaving. " DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DIE SO MUCH THAT - that . . . " Madeline's eyes softened. Oh. Quin. Oh. She was...She was actually...crying. She actually... The blonde-haired girl's own heart thumped wildly. She felt nothing but guilt and shame now. It nearly consumed her. Her cheeks were wet with tears, and she didn't think they would be dry any time soon. She felt extremely...tender right now. She just wanted to apologize--most likely in a hysterical fashion. When she finally found the courage to speak, though, Quin's sobs had died down into nothing. "Quin?" Her voice was small and shaky. Quintus did not reply to her. Fear seized her for a moment, but then turned to relief as she noticed the fall and rise of the unconscious girl's chest. Her cheeks burned and she turned away with a sniffle. "Aah..." Madeline was small, not very muscular, and still achey from whatever had happened with Yuna, but she somehow found the strength to hoist Quin up in her arms bridal style and carry her back through the first set of double doors and into the school because why the fuck not. She had no idea where to go, but the water was rising quickly and the floors were wet. She nearly slipped a few times as she wandered the halls and eventually came to the doors of the auditorium. Maybe...the three who were in there could help her. She stared down at Quin and felt her heart beat again. Her bottom lip quivered once. What is even happening to me? She stared at the door and kicked it a few times, hoping to get someone's attention. The door opened after a few seconds and M came face to face with Abby. She probably looked ridiculous. She and Quin were both soaking and the expression on her own face was one of immense distress. She muttered a thank you and entered. Wow. It was an orgy in here. Her stamina was running out so she knelt down on the steps leading down to the stage. "Do we have any blankets or anything in here?...She's unconscious, I'm not sure what to do."
16 WATER'S RISING!! 【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪ !!】 "...It's you, right?" Her heart just about stopped. Where was his voice coming from? It was muffled somehow. Was he behind her? Outside the door? She should look--No! She shouldn't turn around. He was...dead. He was gone. He wasn't...But why? She couldn't bare it. Turning around would just...Seeing him again would just tear her apart inside. Why was this happening? Was this Crestatia? It...It had been Thomas who was crushed, hadn't it? Yes, it had to be. The school even did the whole assembly thing. (She was still wondering why there hadn't been ones for the other two). What would happen if she turned around? "Tho...Thomas?" Her voice was a whisper. Her throat felt closed off and her hunger cramps were worse now than they had ever been. Her eyes burned again, this time with tears. She could feel her face contorting into an expression of pure disbelief. This was too much. This was too much for her. She couldn't do it anymore. Her stomach ached, her body trembled. She was so tired. She just wanted to sleep, but even the time she got to do so didn't feel like much. These emotions...they were so taxing on her. So terribly taxing. "I'm done..." There was a bit of silence, and then a boom of thunder. "Come here, Maddy..It's alright, now." His voice was as gentle and calm as ever. It didn't nauseate her anymore. She could vividly imagine him now. Thick, wild hair...Neat glasses that slid down his nose every once and a while. Those deep eyes...She imagined him holding his arms out to her without judgement. Her heart was pounding so hard it hurt. She felt as though she would drop dead of a heart attack at any moment. Slowly, she turned around. Her chest heaved with uneven breaths. Thomas. He stood right outside of the door, smiling softly. Somewhere, deep down in some abyss within her, she knew what this meant. Thomas. He had been guiding her and warning her, hadn't he? She felt him. He was dead, there was no way he couldn't be, so to follow him...Where would she be going? There was only one logical conclusion. She would be following him to Death, wouldn't she? "I'm scared." She continued moving towards him until her forehead was pressed up against the glass door of the building. The vent in the small waiting area buzzed and glitched. It was getting hotter in here, but the glass was cool. The thunder was so loud now that the building vibrated a bit with the sound. Thomas tilted his head for a moment, then moved forward with his usual amount of confidence and energy. He kissed the spot on the glass where her forehead was and before she knew it she was sobbing. Heart ripping, stomach twisting sobs. She pushed the door open without another moment of hesitation.
21【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪ !!】 It was dark. She already knew that, but it was beginning to frighten her again. Thunder growled overhead and lightening flashed every once and a while. School had never been more terrifying. Shrouded in darkness, everything felt so much larger than before...Every little shift and step from afar sounded so much louder and closer than it should have. She was scared. Though, the closer she got to the exit the less paranoid she felt. It was actually quite dark outside as well. The sky was lit with lightning from time to time, and otherwise a pale dark rose hue. Madeline didn't know what time it was, but she assumed it was very late. Her body felt heavy and her eyes were still burning from earlier. She pushed open the front entrance doors to Bellhurst High and stepped out into the much chillier waiting area. The vent on the right wall buzzed softly, blowing stale air into her hair. She grimaced and trudged on the thick carper to the second and final set of doors. Rain plummeted down in a way much too aggressive to be natural. It was almost as though someone was simply sifting the ocean somewhere up above the thick, endless clouds hovering over the city. It was so loud and so dark. She was scared. Her fingers trembled. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. There were no cars outside. No people, either. No bikes...No indication of life. She didn't see any planes or helicopters flying above...Though that was understandable. She wondered how many innocent people died because of them. She had started thinking of that since the incident at Lacey's. How many people would Crestatia kill just to get to them? Her palms rested on the wide handle of the first door. What would happen if she stepped outside? Her heart was pounding and her head was spinning. She was so conflicted. Part of her wanted to try it. What if stepping out would take her back home? What if she could actually find help, and there was a reasonable reason for everyone's disappearance? ...What if she died, though? It would be so sudden. She would have no control over it. No, this wasn't worth it. How silly. Why was she trying to be the hero? No one cared about her. No one gave a shit. Probably not even Quin. No one in this building was worth dying for. Madeline turned away from the door and back towards the first set. This was stupid, she shouldn't have -- "Maddy...?"
Spoiler: hey im the shark
25 【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪】 " I just had a little scare in the auditorium. It was a most . . . unexpected surprise, but I am fine, now. " Okay, good. ...These feelings were exhausting. Especially the decent ones. " What do you think we should do, now? " Oh, man, why was she asking her? ...She didn't know anything. She kind of wanted to go outside into the rain and just drown herself in a puddle. Crestatia wouldn't like that. Crestatia. She wondered...Could they go outside? It would be pretty pointless to make everyone else disappear if they could just leave. Unless this wasn't Crestatia's doing and something else was going on. "I'll...I'll be back, Quin. There's something I want to check." She didn't really want to leave Quin there, but she also had a very bad feeling about taking Quin with her. It was one of the same feelings she had gotten after her night at the church. A feeling that reminded her of Thomas...A warning. Oh, great. Altair appeared out of no where. First time she was happy to see him. "I think you should stay together." She nodded, sure of herself now. Quin wouldn't be alone and she would go check. Without giving either of them the chance to follow, Madeline strode off and disappeared in the darkness.
【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪】 She stepped closer to Quin, glad she was okay. When she realized it had been Altair she had ran into, her face burned with anger. What was with this guy and intrusions? He was the most clumsy, invasive person she had ever met. How irritating. She was tempted to kick him while he was down in an attempt to ease her anger, but she resisted. He already had a cane. Before she knew it, he was gone again. She almost called out for him--still wanting to stay together--but it was too late. " Please forgive me, I just - I just had to leave the auditorium - I should have - have done it in a more subtle manner . . . " Jeeze, what was wrong with her? She gazed around them and took a deep breath. Now it was just them again. It seemed no one had decided to follow, which was great and all, except for not. This rain wasn't ending. There had to be something they could do...It didn't matter if Bellhurst was the highest point in Coy City. If this rain wouldn't end, eventually...Everything would be flooded. 30 Why was she being so shy? They were alone now, right? Something was obviously wrong, so why was M so afraid to ask what? " Are you okay? " Quin asked her that twice...Was she really that concerned? Or... "I'm fine..." Madeline was, for the most part. "...Are you...Um. Well, I mean...You seem...uh. Are you...Are you okay?" How invasive. How pathetic. How genuine. How horrifying. How terrible. She really cared.
http://kh-vids.net/threads/chorus-carolling-2012.135182/ Whoa, new project up. Boop.
Sorry I'm sort of late, but HAPPY DECEMBER! I know everyone who hates this month or doesn't celebrate Christmas probably wants to kill me, but I'm in the holiday spirit and I want to share this ~December Magic~ with you all. Welcome to Chorus Carolling 2012 (thanks for the name What?)! If you come up with a better name for this project then BLESS YOU. Basically, Winter Break should be coming up for most of you who are in school currently, which gives us a bit of an activity boost. For anyone who has extra time to put forth, this project is actually pretty simple! All you have to do is sign up like you do for Duet Roulette and, well, like always, sing! Unlike DR, though, the singers aren't randomized, there won't be a video, and there are no (or very few) solo lines depending on how many people sign up. Instead it will work like this; Sign up here if you want to be a singer. People can request songs (either publicly or privately for a surprise) for us to sing for a specific member or group of people. (such as a forum family or members in a specific thread) Kind of like a sing-a-gram. For instance; Then from the members on the singer list, I'll select how many I think should sing that song (moving down the list linearly). Afterwards, I'll send those involved a PM with the original song, instrumental and lyrics (who sings what), deadline, you guys sing it and send like always, then I'll mix it and send it off to Misty or whoever. Along with just sending a song to someone, you can include a special holiday message! (you're a supah fly mama is...not a good example of this). Yes, you can send a song to someone if you are a singer. As for what type of songs you can request to be sung, they are limited to holiday songs. ...But there are A LOT OF THEM. You can specify how you'd like the song to be sung ("Be silly / sing badly"), and how many people you want to sing that song if you care (though not who, mind you). You can also ask for us to sing a parody version of a song (keep it simple). These songs we do I'll try to put on the next KN radio. Our Christmas Edition. * u * RULES ❅ Please request a song to be sung for active members only, and link to their profile when you request it. ❅ Nothing malicious, please. For example, if you've just recently broken up with someone and you want us to sing Last Christmas to them ... no. Lol. No drama pls. ❅ Please find the instrumental and the original version on YT or buy it on iTunes/Amazon before you request it. ❅ Deadlines will be significantly shorter than KN or KHVC ones. They'll be around DR length. Just a few days. ❅ That being said, if you can't sing when you're called on, I'll just move down the list. SO SAY SOMETHING. Don't just message me like three days later all "JAYN GOMEN NE I CNT" say something when you get the message. There are NO drops outs or extensions allowed. It's literally just like DR, haha. If you can't do it, I'll move on. Don't say you can if you can't or you're going to procrastinate. ❅ To add to that, please only sign up if you're an active member. If you're planning on disappearing or something from KHV, don't sign up. It's fine to sign up later on and to get your name taken off of the singer's list later if you suddenly get busy. Please ask me any questions you may have either here or elsewhere and I'll answer them ASAP. Read before you ask though because if you ask me something I've already answered, I swear. >:L SINGERS Spoiler: Form Absolutely Cannot Sing: (Any genres/languages/tempos/ranges that you won't be able to do.)

EH YO EH YO 100 DAYS ALL NIGHTER TIME. This is the last day of this day, but you can keep posting--if you want and will actually be active. We'll go into the next day, and some of our characters will pull all-nighters and not sleep to keep the story moving. If you are NOT going to be posting actively, then today is the day to have your character sleep or something. Please DO NOT keep your character awake and 'involved' if you're just going to...disappear. lol tnx bbyz
【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC | ♪】"What are you doing now? I get the feeling being alone isn't a great idea right now" "If anything, you could stay here with us." She was about to reluctantly agree and then Quin freaked out for some reason. She followed her gaze back to the stage, but she saw nothing. This was...Unlike her. Madeline stood up and turned her back to the other's. She parted her lips to say something and then; " Itisintheorchestraroomand Ineedtogetitnow Madelinewouldyouliketocomewithme?! Quin left the auditorium. What was...that? She completely ignored the other's at first but then remembered that she may need them. She wanted to go after Quin, but...She wondered if it would be more or less awkward going as a group. Still, she had this nagging suspicion that splitting up again would only result in more drama. This was a good opportunity to start moving together. Her legs shook as she navigated out of the row she sat in and back onto the steps leading down to the stage. This was all beginning to be way too much for her. Too much was happening and changing. She didn't understand anything and she hated it. The lack of control. Her stomach tied together in knots. How much more of this could she take? She wondered where Thomas was. Madeline's eyes burned terribly as she turned towards the trio again. "Follow if you want...I don't think we should all be split up but I don't know." Her voice wavered as she shrugged in defeat. "I really don't know." She wasn't sure they'd even be able to hear her, but she pulled the doors back open and walked quickly on wobbly legs in the direction of the Orchestra Hall. It was still terribly dark (with a small bit of light coming from outside) and the halls were basically empty. She felt a little frightened, actually. She didn't usually mind the darkness, but it was just eerie. She felt as though someone could sneak up behind her through the darkness and slit her throat. Dear God. ...Someone could be following her right now. Spoiler "EHH QU-QUIN-" Madeline shrieked, loudly, and swiveled around to stare wide-eyed behind her and into the darkness. Then it occurred to her that Quin could be in danger, and she felt horribly, disgustingly conflicted with what to do. Part of her wanted to run back to the auditorium, but the other--somehow more dominate part--was pushing her forward in the direction of the sound. She was trembling when she reached them. She couldn't see a damn thing. Just shadows illuminated slightly by a lone flickering light. "Q-Quin? Are you...Are you okay?" Are you dead? Who was the other person? She needed a weapon. She didn't have one. She could kill with her hands, if she needed to. She had experience, after all.
Pfff. Mmkay. I'll look forward to it tomorrow!~
Spoiler I'm leaving this locked for a bit. Already said this, but Nutheadbros you can send your request elsewhere. Too many at once and that's...annoying and stressful to say the least.
Busy with family matters when you've posted in CC four times today? HMMMM... Okay.
I wouldn't know because you haven't postedddd~
【WEARING | LATEST TUMBLR UPDATE | OOC: Day 2/3 | ♪】Madeline took a few more steps, inching closer to the trio. She could feel the tension swirling around the auditorium, but she didn't care. It actually gave her a bit of a confidence boost. Madeline was most uncomfortable around those who seemed to genuinely like her. She was most uncomfortable with loyalty and kindness. Tension was okay. "Fine..." She answered for herself, leaving out that blackout and pain aching throughout her. "It's too quiet around here. I haven't seen anyone not on the list since I woke up..." She murmured, taking a seat in the middle of the back row. Her legs thanked her. "Have you seen...Yunalia today?" She never bothered learning her full name. She was bad with names, but she knew Brian's and Chase's. Then there was Aileen...? ...Whatever.
Thank you! Thank you! I tried to throw some more males up in da mix. Thank you! <3 I'm a fan of BIG BRIGHT VIVID COLORS AND SHARPNESS so I'm trying to... experiment. I threw down some an exclusion layer on most of them that gives off the sepia tone. Mmm. Thank you. ; u ; That makes me happy. <3
That's weird. It's most likely because of the symbols in my name. Looks like you figured it out though! I'll read over the fanfiction in a bit. 8)
