The Sixth Academy For Heroes-In-Training [DT]

Lumi · 2015-04-28T20:11:24Z

Academy #1 Academy #2 Academy #3 Academy #4 Academy #5 Why Are You Here? This is the discussion thread for The Sixth Academy For Heroes-In-Training. Those who have pre-applied will be tagged, but as of today, the storybook is open to new applicants. To prevent cast bloating, there is a limit of 8 student slots and 8 faculty slots. To qualify for a faculty slot, you must have participated in an Academy in or before 2012. Those who qualify for staff positions are: @Lauren2010, @StellaThomas, @Rosendorn, @Jolt, @chibibo, @Nutty, @Isha, @Skins, @Shearwater, @LowKey, @Holofernes, @Hannah, @Jagged, @Octave, @Aet%20Lindling, @JabberHut, @Kyllorac, @ScarlettFire. Students Students in The Sixth Academy (henceforth known as 6c6) are in their SECOND year of education at The Academy, so even if you are a 'new' student, you have undergone a term over the summer - or have some exception that allows you to enter your second year. This allows that there may be other Academies For Heroes-In-Training elsewhere in different universes. In fact, while 4c4 and 5c5 took place in an Academy on its own planet, 6c6 will take place on Earth, nestled south of Albany, New York. Of course, it's very difficult for normal people to find The Academy. Some may even say it's impossible. You can thank the Headmistress for the new tech. You will not be held to a visible class schedule, but instead will be graded on your performance during missions. Classes are still taken, but are more background than the previous year. To apply to be a student, please fill out our Student Application. We will begin accepting applications begging May 1st at 00:00 EDT.

Rachel "Dove" L'Roth (Professor of Magic Studies) 6. Lucas Brooks (Self-Defense) 7. 8. Memos From The Headmaster's Office 1. Due to budget cuts, the Headmaster's office has been hired by Subway to incorporate product placement into the Hero Documentary. Eat Fresh! 2. Due to a clerical error, the owner of the on-campus restaurant will be Mr. Eugene Crab, who does not speak English, and also is just a crab. 3. Students may notice a repetitive cycle of music at the end of every school day. This is an executive playlist requested by our janitorial staff . 4. Because of issues with the Missions Director, we request that all bones be discarded in the trash after each meal. Any bones found in the dormitories must be brought to the incinerator to be incinerated. Not that kind of bone, stop laughing, it's not funny anymore, Professor West. 5. Due to an elevated level of on-campus shenanigans, Professor L'Roth has been requested to roam the halls and report all findings to the Headmaster's Office. In addition, Professor L'Roth has requested that students refrain from referring to her as "Professor Buzzkill." That includes you, Professor West. 6. The Headmaster's Office has received a formal petition from the Organization for Lalafell Justice that all potatoes must remain in the cafeteria at all times. That means dormitories, gym floors, and science labs are off-limits. That includes your lab, Professor West. Your "potato-based research" can wait another year. 7. Due to an influx of Tumblr comments, any likeness of Loki is banned from campus. 8. Due to the massive reduction in student population over the summer, we would like to remind all students that if you see your former classmates roaming the halls to report them to campus security. 9. All rare Pepe is to be given to the Professor of Meme Studies, AT. This includes Professor West.

I forgot to respond to this. @StellaThomas (i hate that I can't ping you as stellabear) Team B will eventually be going on a mission. But Evatt's team is at your mercy.

@AriaAdams - they can worry about the flying trapeze.

Someone post. I'm learning about lysosomal storage disorders including the mucopolysaccharidoses and peroxisomal enzyme defects like X-linked adrenoleucodystrophy. Aka THIS IS A CRY FOR HELP/distraction.

Jeez you guys clearly read my mind with two whole DT posts in between. Sounds good! I just didn't know what the Day 1 plan was so went with it.

Ok so posts can teleport now, or at leas they can get past my Notification Security System.
I CALL HAX.

I'mma read them. Additionally I can't post either (yet) because let's just say that my school week's kinda... Uhh... Hellish, this time.

@Lumi If you can wait for long enough I can read/post as Dove you can bring in the bone joke because Dove might be Professor Buzzkill but she is still a huge troll.

xD I'll pause what I was writing. It wasn't very lolzy anyway.

I'm realising Astral might have a bit of trouble finding that dragon if he doesn't hurry up and catch it while it's just one page behind whoops.

...Soooooooo, we have a Saiyan in the SB, and I'm a DBZ fan. First a Disgaea character, then a Moogle, and now a Saiyan. And to top it all off, related to Nappa.
My life is complete. (And Evoltrick is going to flood her with TFS references.)
Also, funny posts! What's a a flying trapeze? I am slightly scared.

I wonder if @Omni and @QueenAnne remember being in this. Most profiles were in in the first 12 hours. And we're only missing one staff profile, which is for West, who is really easy to capture.

I mean really easy.

@AriaAdams --> What if we flag the dragon so she shows up in the MCP? We'd just have to trust that...every single other mod...would not check the MCP tonight.

xD We can do that. And take bets on whether he'd first check the MCP or go through my latest posts, aye?

In other news, headache is killing me, but I do have a piece of a post written and would love some RPing/whatever in like two-three hours when I finally get home <.<

Oh and if someone feels like making a fancy intro banner for Dyre, be my guest. Socialisation had left me utterly uninspired, I'm afraid.

@Auxiira And my computer doesn't allow me to click the spoiler, for so odd reason, so I googled it and discovered that it was that thing I saw in circus shows, except in English.
We learn every day.
Yes, my group's not up for it yet, but that's still part of the training sessions they might have later. We... should be fine, I hope :/
