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 said that I was prepa-
Ok never mind, that was the beginning of an excuse, wasn't it.
AHEM. Thank you for the reminder, lemme finish my Last Exam Version Spanish test today and I should be able to finish that post of mine. It's not a long one anyway.

About 3/4 of my post done. You should have it by tomorrow, or at least by the end of this weekend.
And this time, no exams are in the way (last 2 ones on te 30th and 31st in my case), so more free time for me.

EDIT: @Lumi posted. Evo didn't reach the building in which Cage's in yet, so I'll need one other post to write the loss, unless someone from Team B does it before me.
I'm not reserving a post, just saying that I'm not writing the loss yet, assuming that I end up doin' it.
And if I didn't knock the Mary Sue out of Evoltrick with that one, or at least a part of it, then I'm really, really doing a terrible job

Up next should be @AriaAdams for Team B.

@Auxiira is still up to bat for Team A.

Aria, try to wrap up the B-story.

B-Bear, have your post eventually bring us back to campus to say goodbye to Tanya.

@Tortwag, your post was delicious. Thank you. <3

After the two stories resolve together, I have the final entry for Episode One written in which we set up a future episode and bring us into the plot of Episode Two. A major player in Ep 2, though, is Brianna, so I'm wondering if @Lauren2010 would be up for an entry or two. If not, that's fine - Bri will be used appropriately either way. I'll post the synopsis once we get further towards closing Ep. 1.

I'll have to check the real threads again, but I'm pretty sure that this will be the shortest-lived Academy in the entire series.

So with that in mind, how about a post, @Auxiira? Anyone?

I can't go until next Monday at the earliest. I'm stretched thin enough as it is with my 4-H fair coming up this weekend.

That said, Lumi and I aren't the only people on our team.

Yaaaaaaaaay, this thing still exists.

And yeah still surprised no one from Team A responded yet. Is it because of Last Man Standing challenge...?

Also, those Team Four Star references area killing me, lol. And @Chibibo, to answer your tag, I don't know about the others, but I don't think you did anything wrong while portraying Evoltrick, soooo...
*the stamp of glory*
That's Evo Approved!
