Same here! My first post is normally pretty stellar and then, why, well then it varies. Good to be RPing with you again, @McHaggis.

The muffled bass of electronic music ebbed through the floorboards of the studio apartment above The Asylum. Therese was taking this relatively quiet moment to gather her thoughts and freshen up before a video chat meeting with a potential business partner from LA.

Pale, graceful fingers swept her bangs to the side in a swoop and secured them with a spritz of hairspray. Therese wore the rest of her hair in a tight bun, and she saw to it that not a single strand was out of place. “Perfect.” She said quietly to herself as she sat before the mirrored vanity. A reflection with mismatched blue and green eyes stared back at Therese and, ironically enough, this imperfection never really bothered her. Jeanette had the same condition since becoming a vampire, and Therese assumed it was just some supernatural genetic thing.

“Wow, look at that!” Jeanette’s chirpy voice cut through the tranquility. Therese turned to see her sister in bed, staring intently at a laptop screen, laying on her stomach with her ankles crossed and swinging up above her.

“Must you always be so intrusive.” Therese practically hissed. Jeanette rolled her eyes and replied: “Must you always be such a stiff?” Her voice was mocking, but she wasn’t really irritated, and thus she continued with the explanation of her exciting discovery. “It’s this movie that’s coming out… there’s a character named Harley Quinn. She totally jacked my style, but I guess she wears it well.”

It was Therese’s turn to roll her eyes. She stood up from the seat in front of the vanity and smoothed down her freshly pressed charcoal grey skirt suit before slipping her feet into a pair of Christian Louboutin ruby red pumps. Feminine, professional, powerful.

“I have an important meeting in 10 minutes. I know that you won’t behave yourself, but I insist that you do so elsewhere.” Therese's words held an edge sharper than the finest of blades.

“Whatever you say, Queen Victoria.” Jeanette muttered under her breath as she clicked the laptop shut and hopped off of her bed. Therese’s eyes followed after Jeanette as her dangerously short plaid skirt fluffed out in time her ridiculous pigtails whilst she waltzed out of the apartment. Only once Therese was certain that Jeanette was really gone did she login to her own computer to await the business call.

Perspehone flitted up from her palm and perched on Kiki's shoulder before she turned around to greet her new roommate. She'd never shared a room with someone before, being the only child of a highborn faerie. At the moment, her guard was down, and so was her rather undependable glamour. When Kiara turned to see Laurel, she was shocked at how human she looked. Cat-like, but human - the only real tell that she was supernatural was her soundless movement. Wanting to make a show of solidarity, Kiki put up her spotty glamour, managing to mask her wings and ghoulish grey skin, but her sharp teeth remained.

"Hello Laurel, I'm Kiara, or KiKi, whichever you like better. And this --" she gestured to the bat on her shoulder, "is my companion Persephone. I named her after one of the cool sounding humanfolk goddesses of the underworld." Kiki balled her fists up in front of her chest excitedly "How delightfully spooky!" Despite her dark, unseelie appearance, Kiara had an endearing youthful spunk to her.

"Speaking of humanfolk, are you a cat-person?" Kiki took a shot in the dark at guessing Laurel's race, it might be considered rude, but Unseelie faes have never been known for their politeness. Kiara then turned her relatively short attention span to the hyena, cocking her head curiously at it. Hyena's didn't exist in the faerie realm, and Kiara wasn't yet allowed to travel to Earth to discover other animals. "And what are you, dear Güzel? Where are you from?" Kiki squatted down and addressed the hyena directly with a bright smile, hoping that the faerie ability to communicate with all living creatures spanned across realms.

Alright my beautiful RPing people!! I think we have everyone that was interested. If you posted a CS and I have neither approved nor disapproved it let me know :) Other than that we are good to start posting in the IC :)

@Theodora_21

Are we allowed to just go for it, or should we wait for your intro post first?

Yes!

Ooh, sure! :D

Is it just like, a fancy font that you download and make the background transparent in an image or something? Or do you use code on this site?

@MissCapnCrunch How do you do the fancy font and the thingamajig at the bottom?!

Kiki made her way to the courtyard, where the greatest density of new students stood, and looked around curiously. The wide doors to the building swung open, and out walked a tall, slender woman dressed in silver robes. Her hair was blonde and streaked with lavender, and her face and words were equally warm and kind. She seemed to be giving instructions to the new students. Kiki was a new student herself, entering the school as a fourth year because of her age. Madame P informed them to find the nearest teacher to get their room assignments before she disappeared in a puff of smoke and purple light. Kiki looked at the empty space where Madame P had stood, a little bit starstruck. Of course, faeries like herself could possess magic, but Kiara hadn't come to master something as simple as a glamour yet, let alone any fancy tricks. Hopefully, this school would help her learn to control her powers, and maybe even discover that she has magic like some of her relatives do.

Kiara made her way to the nearest teacher-like supernatural. Many of the cryptids here were so beautiful and youthful, it was hard to tell who was a teenager and who was hundreds of years old. Kiki received her dorm assignment, she was in the girls dormitory with a roommate named Laurel. That was something she hadn't really thought about until now, having a roommate. A girl roommate, too. Females normally didn't like her much, and Kiki was torn between whether she wanted this Laurel to like her, or not. Having a roommate dislike her would make for some good emotional sustenance, but she also kind of wanted to have at least one friend in this strange new realm. Either way, it was time to meet fate, so she headed to room number she was assigned.

The dorm room was just as lovely as the rest of the campus. There were live plants and the windows were open, allowing a natural air flow to pass through. Kiki guessed that her side of the room was the one with a bed covered in a blanket made of magically preserved leaves and flowers, so she set her bags down there. Laurel was nowhere to be seen, yet, so Kiki waited around to meet her. The familiar flap of leathery wings was the next thing to catch Kiki's attention. A small, red-eyed, black bat landed on the open window sill on Kiki's side of the room.

"Persy, there you are!" Kiara said as she rushed over to her little companion, holding out her palm to the bat. Persephone flitted onto her palm and Kiara brought the bat up to face level and kissed it on it's head.
