The dining hall is bustling with students and teachers alike. In the far corner there is a group of students and teachers, seemingly separated from the rest of the hall. If you even notice this collection of outsiders, you probably belong with them. Arriving closer you hear wondrous tales, some true, some false, some blurring the veil of reality. It is here you could learn the truth of the universe, or bust a gut laughing, or hear the worst joke ever and vow to kill the person at a later date. It is here where everything can happen, or nothing can happen. It is, here, where you decide its very existence. What will this place turn out to be? A place of degenerates, a place of rumors, or a place of fantasy.
This topic is basically what the description is. You can share real stories, one you make up, or start role-playing here. Think of it as an actual dining hall where all these things take place at the same time. Where each story and fable starts to merge into one, where the roleplays become a part of your life, and your life parallels in the roleplay.
I would like if you had a roleplay like sign up as a form of introduction. This could be like a RP in itself or just a bunch of people chatting it up. All can exist in harmony in here.
(None of these are really mandatory, kinda gets everyone introduced though)

Guardian: (If you can/want)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting at the table is a single student, staring blankly into space. The only one there and the table already seems to repel peoples gazes and notice. Part of the groupless group, people pay him no mind, unless he wants them to. He suddenly pulls out his computer and starts typing staring into space. His hands move across the keyboard much like a rusted machine, stopping and slipping between keys. Looking down he seems disappointed and clothes his laptop sighing.

Very good idea. Consider this topic stickied.

Description: 5 foot something. I have brown hair, which I tried to dye blue once. It failed so now I have blond tips. I'm trying to grow it out to be long. I'm American Indian, thus naturally tan. Nobody knows what subject I actually teach, but I sit at this table every day for lunch.
Guardian: Jenas is a fae, thus about the length of my arm. She wears a green skirt thingy, which coincidentally looks a lot like Tinkerbell's. She has short sandy blond hair and very sparkly, hypnotic eyes.
Specialty/Focus/Study: Unknown
Stories: WoW stories, stories about meditation or magical practices.
Teacher or Student: (Tim is a teacher for example, I would be a |||_|13C4k3)
Tim walks up and drops next to Chris with a loud thud. "Hey buddy, what's up?" he says, much louder than he probably should (attracting a few starers in the process). "Dudeman, I totally dropped a slice of toast on the ground today, the side with the Miracle Whip landed on the ground. I ate it anyway. Three second rule and all. True story." He then takes a bite of the chocolate cake he apparently bought.

"Oy, you shouldn't do that. Your liable to pick up something else off the ground when you do."
Looking at the cake Tim was eating he sighed and flipped open his laptop.
"You swiped that from the kitchen didn't you," he questioned and then turned back to his laptop, "Whatever, not having much luck contacting my guardian... and where the hell is everyone? We usually have more people around by now."

"Swiped? I'm a teacher. I consider it my right to take things from the kitchen without paying," Tim said, gobbling down the last of the cake and licking his fingers. "But, yeah. No idea where everyone is. They should really come here before I go to them and make them come here. Was that a run-on sentence?" Tim looks confused and begins to peer at Chris' laptop screen.

"Might very well be, doesn't even flow that well. Then again, I am a grammar nazi."
Noticing Tim looking at his laptop screen, he spun the labtop around a full 360 before stopping it.
"No, I am not looking at porn... you have your own comp for that. I'm trying that typing thing again...not going to well."

XIV had been sitting by herself at the table next to the two for some time now. During that period she had managed to make twenty-eight paper cranes. Each of which were folded in the art of origami and were featured in many different assortments of colors. On lookers observed the strange girl who seemed to be caught up in her own world but at peace as she pulled out another piece of paper from the packet and began folding it. XIV smiled as she began the creation of the twenty-ninth crane, which was to be a blue one, when her attention tuned to the chattering of the two beside her. She halted her actions for a moment and turned to glare at them then carelessly shrugged at the strange topics they spoke of, going back to her work, if it could even be called that.

Tim immediately leaps and spins around to face the back of the girl that just looked his direction. "Excuse me, miss. A lot of people were staring just now but...Well, I believe you were checkin' me out, weren't you? Don't lie. My name's Tim, by the way." He thrusts his hand out quite quickly.

Ed appeared behind XIV, observing the paper crane while crouching on the chair/bench (whatever).
"Stop trying to scare people away Tim. She hasn't even been here that long...
So you make paper cranes also? I find it is like a bad habit, kinda like smoking. If I get any stray paper I just start making the things without realizing it, leaving them all over the place. I think people enjoy them...maybe..."
((I actually have started to sit on chairs like L does. I find it quite fun and relaxing for some reason. Also, I do have a habit of suddenly disappearing and reappearing behind people. biggrin ))

XIV jumped out of her peaceful daze, startled by Tim, causing her to crush the crane she was working on with out thinking. "Damn I wrecked it." She thought to herself, opening her palm to see how bad the little origami figure's state was. XIV flashed an annoyed smirk then turned to face Tim. Her first intentions were to yell at him for making her loose her concentration but instead she shook his hand and gave a smile so as not to seem rude. "Nice to meet you. You may call me XIV." She said ignoring the rest of what Tim had said. "Yeah, there kind of...I don't know, calming to make." XIV said to Ed as she began to fix the one she had crushed.
(lol I used to act like L in school but it scared the crap out of everyone then death note shows up and everyone is like "OMG L is so awesome." and I was just like "Wtf?!" XD I have that habit too, it's hilarious the reactions people give you.)

"Haha, oh damn. Shot down. Cool cranes though. Didn't mean to make you mess that one up. So, uhh...You wanna sit over here with us? The table's scary empty." Tim motions for XIV to join him and Chris at their table.

XIV shrugged, careless. "Heh, why not?" She said then gathered up all the cranes she had made and went about stuffing them into her bag. It was a black side bag covered with buttons of various music artist and cartoon characters and she always had in slung over and across one shoulder. "So what brings you both to this odd place?" She asked pulling out a chair and taking a seat with her arms crossed.

"Well, I work here." Tims says, smirking and taking a swig of soda that he didn't seem to have before. "I can only assume you're a student. It's really great to have you at our little table." Tim laughs rather loudly and then drinks more soda.

Silvercanth "Haha, oh damn. Shot down. Cool cranes though. Didn't mean to make you mess that one up. So, uhh...You wanna sit over here with us? The table's scary empty." Tim motions for XIV to join him and Chris at their table. "How many times is that Tim? Three? Six? Hundred?," smirked Ed as he waltzed back to his usual seat. "The name is Chris, but I also go by Ed. It's an online name that just stuck. Partly because the name I usually use is hard to say and the song Special Ed by Steven Lynch," he said talking over his shoulder. Sitting in his usual seat, his head hit the table. The single word of "bored" came out in the form of a groan from his mouth. His hands flopping around the table, he finally found his laptop. Without looking he opened it up and logged on. "I place bets on spontaneous combustion as the reason everyone is not here!"

XIV nodded her head "Ah okay. I usually change names when ever I get board. XIV is the same number as the angel of time and balance." She explained to them. "And what makes you assume I'm a student?" XIV asked Tim, curious. Even though she was a student she was a part time teaching assisant because she seemed to know a bit more then some of the teachers in certain subjects. Everything worked out well in her scedule so she was able to attend and help out in classes at different times.
