<LanceLynel>: The mid-morning shone through the windows of Buck's Academy, as the clock ticked slowly toward lunch break. The students, eager to get the lesson over and done with, have all made their way toward the top floor,where their next class awaited.
2
Wrong_Way holds his stomach as he waits outside the classroom
3
<Wrong_Way>: "Man...."
4
<Gwyd>: "Are you alright?"
5
*** Amos is now known as Clara
6
<Wrong_Way>: "I want it to be lunch already..."
7
Clara is also hungry, moreso because she hasn't eaten last night as she was in the middle of a breakthrough that went... nowhere. She tiredly floats over to the classroom. 
8
<Wrong_Way>: "Man, I'm just gonna summon a pizza if this is going to be a boring class..."
9
<Gwyd>: Man that sucks but lunch isnt fa-oh hey clara"
10
<Clara>: "Hey Gwydion, hey Mark" she says with a yawn, she hasn't bothered landing on the ground so she just thoughtlessly floats in the air
11
Wrong_Way 's stomach grumbles and Wrong_Way moans in frustratiion
12
<LanceLynel>: The teacher opened the door to the classroom, and immediately you could see one thing; he was the same age as the students. He is dressed smartly, though his hair is ruffled and shirt untucked.
13
<LanceLynel>: "Oh, right, forgot about the class. Well, c'mon in already."
14
Wrong_Way tries to exchange a glance of confusion with Gwyd
15
Gwyd heads into class and takes a seat near clara, and wrong way.
16
Clara heads on into class, wondering if it would be wrong of her to bring up the fact the teacher is a teenager 
17
Wrong_Way sits down and raises his hand instantly
18
<LanceLynel>: The room looks pretty standard: A selection of shelves sat near the far wall, on them a wide selection of books. Various other books were strewn messily around the room, mostly dictionaries and thesauruses.
19
<LanceLynel>: "Oh, uh, right... you there, got a question?" the teacher points at Mark as he asks.
20
<Wrong_Way>: "Would you mind if I summon a pizza here?"
21
Clara looks over to mark confused
22
<Clara>: ["There better be pepperoni on that"]
23
Wrong_Way manages an embarrassed smile as he's holding his very hungry stomach
24
<LanceLynel>: "A pizza...? Oh, sure thing." he said with a smile, spinning his chair around before sitting on it.
25
<Wrong_Way>: "..Really? Sweet."
26
Clara looks at the teacher and back to mark, confused that worked 
27
<Gwyd>: huh..
28
Clara finally conquers the mountain of social pressure and raises her hand
29
Wrong_Way spends a minute trying to word this properly and think of his order
30
<Wrong_Way>: "Alright...there /isn't/ a freshly cooked anchovy pizza on my desk."
31
<LanceLynel>: "Ah yeah, you there young lady, what's troublin' you?"
32
Wrong_Way leans back in his seat as a pizza just appears on the desk
33
Wrong_Way goes to grab a slice but it's too hot to touch now
34
<Wrong_Way>: "Ouch!"
35
<Clara>: "Well.... sorry Mr. Lynel, was it?" she says sheepishly "Aren't you a bit... young to be a teacher?"
36
Wrong_Way nurses his hand from the burn
37
<LanceLynel>: "Well, Mr. Lynel? Too formal, just call me Lance, y'hear?" he said, looking at the class. "Yeah, I guess I am kinda young, but I got the degrees I need to teach."
38
Wrong_Way shrugs as he grabs the same slice of pizza
39
Wrong_Way sighs to his relief that it's not setting his hand on fire
40
<Clara>: "Oh, okay" she says, sounding to accept it while still kinda weirded out
41
Gwyd has his stuff out, is drawing in his red book, and has notes out to the side ready.
42
Wrong_Way eats his slice of pizza quickly, so hungry.
43
<LanceLynel>: "I know, it is kinda weird, but don'tcha worry, I know what I'm doin'"
44
Clara prepares her things
45-
<LanceLynel>: "Right, so, I wanna learn a bit more about you folks. So let's go around and introduce ourselves, startin' with pizza boy over there."
45+
<LanceLynel>: "Right, so, I wanna learn a bit more about you folks. So let's go around and introduce ourselves, startin' with pizza boy over there."

Sol Retconing me out ]
53
Wrong_Way [aw, why?]
54
Wrong_Way [...nevermind then]
55
LanceLynel [I think he still need a while to get home proper]
56
Wrong_Way [probably]
57
Trick [am I allowed in this, or?]
58
Wrong_Way [you'd be the oldest guy in the room]
59
Wrong_Way [so, you can show up late if you want]
60
Wrong_Way [barely started class]
61
Trick [that's what I figured]
62
 
63
Trick wanders into class, yawning as he slumps into a seat
64
LanceLynel "Oh, late arrival? Got a name, pal?"
65
Wrong_Way is eating his slice of pizza as he sees Trick enter in
66
Trick "John."
67
Wrong_Way looks back to his pizza
68
LanceLynel "Just John, huh? Well, alrighty, there ain't many folks here, so take a seat at the center table with the others."
69
Trick "Oh, okay."
70
 
71
Wrong_Way wonders why his classes are generally empty
72
 
73
Trick gets up, takes his backpack and sets it down at the table with Clara and Wrong_Way
74
Wrong_Way "Eyy, Tricko. Wanna slice of pizza?" he says as he gestures to the pizza that's just laying on his desk.
75
LanceLynel "Hey, pizza, you haven't introduced yourself yet. So, c'mon then."
76
Trick "Hey there" he pauses for a second to remember wrong_way's name "Mark! Sure."
77
Trick takes a slice and leans back in his seat to eat comfortably
78
 
79
Clara "Hello John.." she does her usual sheepish greeting
80
Wrong_Way "You know Clara, you can grab a slice of pizza if you want."
81
Wrong_Way "I doubt I'll finish the whole thing" he says, finishing a slice
82
 
83
Clara waits a second, then takes a piece once she is sure he actually means it.
84
 
85
Trick looks over to Clara and swallows his pizza before talking
86
 
87
Wrong_Way looks back to the teacher
88
Trick "Hey there... -wrong_way talks- Clara."
89
Wrong_Way "Oh right! Class."
90
 
91
Clara eats pizza
92
LanceLynel "Hey, just 'cause I'm a lil' looser compared to other teachers doesn't make this any less of a legit class."
93
Clara "Oh, sorry!" she looks back up to the teacher
94
Wrong_Way "Sorry sir. Lunch is next period..."
95
 
96
Trick looks back to Lance
97
LanceLynel "So, a quick introduction. Name, age, favorite book, go wild, what you think is important knowledge.
98
Wrong_Way looks back to the other two, hoping that one of them will go first
99
Trick looks back at the group
100
Wrong_Way "..Nose goes."
101
Wrong_Way puts his finger on his nose
102
 
103
Trick puts his finger on his nose
104
Wrong_Way "Ohhhhh!"
105
Wrong_Way "Ahaha Clara, you go first..."
106
LanceLynel "You know the rules of nose goes. Clara, is it?"
107
Clara "Yeah..." she regrets being slow on the draw
108
LanceLynel "Judging by your tone you ain't exactly fond of chattin' to people, huh?"
109
LanceLynel "What do they call it? Not being a "social butterfly" or whatever."
110
Clara "Just... shy a bit. Sorry, new here"
111
 
112
Trick looks to Lance with a "what are you doing, man" expression
113
 
114
Wrong_Way throws pennies at the freshmeat]
115
Clara "So, I'm Clara Walsh. Sixteen. Spend a lot of time working with machines"
116
LanceLynel "Machines, huh? Interestin'. Ever considered it as a career?"
117
Clara "Kind of my powers" she taps the scouter, indicating she made it "And once I graduate, sure"
118
LanceLynel "Hmm, I see. Anything else ya wanna add? Hobbies, favorite book, movie, TV show?"
119
Clara "Weeeeeell, I've always been partial to listening to big long boring scientific
120
lectures rather than TV, but I with the earpiece I've gotten myself into
121
music"
122
 
123
Clara eats pizza
124
LanceLynel "I see. Well, that's all good, you sound like a nice enough person."
125
 
126
Trick nods approvingly
127
LanceLynel "Now, who's next...?"
128
 
129
Trick looks to wrong_way
130
Wrong_Way "Nose goes."
131
 
132
Wrong_Way touches his nose
133
 
134
Trick puts giner on nose
135
Wrong_Way "Ahahah!"
136
Trick "Damnit."
137
LanceLynel [what's a giner?]
138
Trick [a hastily misspelled finger]
139
Clara [giner pls]
140
 
141
Wrong_Way grabs another slice of pizza for his victorious reflexes
142
LanceLynel "Ah, I see. Mark, yes?"
143
LanceLynel "It's your turn."
144
 
145
Trick looks at Wrong_way, slightly confused.
146
Wrong_Way "...What?"
147
LanceLynel "You won the round."
148
LanceLynel "Your prize is getting to introduce yourself first."
149
Trick "Yeah, you get the privilege of going first!"
150
19:54
151
Wrong_Way puts down his slice and sighs
152
Wrong_Way "Fine, Mark Rossi, 15, I have a turtle."
153
 
154
Wrong_Way goes back to his pizza
155
 
156
Trick smiles, he has a catlike face whenever he does this.
157
LanceLynel "Hmm, and nothing else?"
158
 
159
Wrong_Way puts down his pizza again
160
 
161
Clara looks at mark with a "you won't get out of it that easily" expression
162
Wrong_Way "Yes, that's all there really is about me."
163
 
164
Trick takes more pizza
165
Clara "C'mon, I know there's more about ya" she says to mark, half chewing
166
19:57 LanceLynel "Nah, people are a lot more complex than they ever give themselves credit for."
167
19:57 LanceLynel "Interests, for instance."
168
19:57 LanceLynel "Little habits."
169
19:58 Wrong_Way "Fine, my interests are flying the S-jet."
170
 
171
Clara [so you like fantasy then]
172
Clara [ #iceburn ]
173
Wrong_Way [shut up]]
174
LanceLynel [oh shit is that a burn[
175
Trick [apply cream]
176
 
177
Wrong_Way takes a bite out of his pizza slice as if that will end this conversation

Clara [mutha fucc[
182
Trick haw haw]
183
 
184
LanceLynel "You're not getting out of it that easily."
185
LanceLynel "Put some passion, some thought into it."
186
 
187
Trick looks at Clara with a concerned expression
188
 
189
Clara raises an eyebrow
190
 
191
Trick gestures to wrong_way with his head and raises his shoulders
192
 
193
Clara shrugs
194
 
195
Trick goes back to eating pizza
196
LanceLynel "...well then, if this is how he'll play the game, we'll just move on. John, your turn."
197
 
198
Trick slowly chews his bite of pizza, swallows, pushes his chair out with his foot on the side of the table, rests his hands on his knees, and lifts himself to a standing position. He leans backwards to crack his back, and sighs.
199
Trick "Okaaaaaaay."
200
Trick "So, I'm John Depascale. 18 years old. Male. Used to play a lot of football, but I was kicked off the team when my mutant powers activated. Y'know, since superpowers aren't fair and all. Moved here with my cousin to stop
201
getting shit from half the folks at my old school. I worked most of the time since and I guess I haven't had any room for hobbies."
202
 
203
Trick slumps back down and continues eating pizza.
204
LanceLynel "Quite the story. If you don't mind me asking, were you good at football?"
205
Trick "The best."
206
 
207
Clara nods as he tells the story, eats pizza
208
 LanceLynel "Huh, I see. Well, darn shame you got kicked off."
209
 
210
Trick continues eating.
211
 
212
Wrong_Way finishes his slice, having listened to Trick's tragic past
213
<LanceLynel>: "Well, now that we're all acquainted, I suppose we should get started, no?"
214
<Wrong_Way>: "I guess."
215
Trick shrugs. "Sure."
216
<Wrong_Way>: [i have no idea how many slices are left of this pizza]
217
<Wrong_Way>: [i had like 2]
218
<Clara>: [when nobody was looking, clara ate 40 slices]
219
<Wrong_Way>: [damn it clara]
220
<Clara>: [she ate 40 slices. thats as many as four tens]
221
<Clara>: [and that's terrible]
222
<LanceLynel>: "Okay, so, since we're all new, I'd rather avoid ramming you folks into some book you don't know or care about."
223
<Trick>: >every female amos makes is a thieving gluttonous whore]
224
<Wrong_Way>: [that's mean trick.]
225
<Trick>: [but muh pizza]
226
<Clara>: [I blame the women prominent in my childhood]
227
Wrong_Way can't remember the last book he read
228
<Wrong_Way>: "...Thank you."
229
<LanceLynel>: "So instead, I decided that it's time for more questions."
230
LanceLynel takes a notebook from his bag, and a pen from his pocket.
231
Wrong_Way slaps himself on the head
232
Clara thinks this could turn out better than she previously expected
233
Trick reaches over for more pizza without looking, and feels nothing but cardboard. Damnit.
234
<LanceLynel>: "Okay, so a book tells a story, right? And the idea behind the story is to give an experience, make the reader feel something."
235
<LanceLynel>: "Whether it's... Joy." he scrawls the word down in his notebook.
236
<LanceLynel>: In an instant, he is swarmed by brightly-colored butterflies, and once they disperse, a strange creature is left behind.
237
<LanceLynel>: Brightly-colored and human in shape, made from what appeared to be sweet treats, toys, and various other trinkets.
238
Wrong_Way looks to the pizza box, worried it was laced with marijuana
239
Trick blankly stares at the creature
240
<Trick>: [I did a marijuana and saw butterflies, man.]
241
Clara looks on quizzically
242
<LanceLynel>: When the creature speaks, the voice remains the same, although somewhat softer. "Or perhaps Sadness."
243
<LanceLynel>: Again he writes the word in, bringing in a group of dark clouds.
244
<LanceLynel>: They remain, and the creature's colors become muted and grey.
245
Trick looks to Clara and Wrong_way with a confused expression
246
Wrong_Way looks back interested
247
Wrong_Way wonders if he should be taking notes on this
248
Clara waits to see more
249
<LanceLynel>: The creature crosses the words from his notebook, and slowly things return to normal. The creature's body seems to shed off, leaving Lance standing there.
250
Trick returns to looking at what's going on
251
<LanceLynel>: "Which is why I want to ask you all, what do you want out of a story?"
252
<LanceLynel>: "What do you want to see and feel?"
253
<LanceLynel>: "Just throw words out, no fear."
254
Wrong_Way raises his hand
255
<LanceLynel>: "Yes, Mark."
256
<Wrong_Way>: "Uh...I want the hero to go somewhere. Like, learn something new and start to change.."
257
<LanceLynel>: "Change, Growth, Learning! All very good."
258
<Clara>: "I always look for some kind of commentary or message on something greater than the story itself"
259
Clara shrugs
260
<LanceLynel>: Lance writes the words in, and from his notebook hop out three figures; a young boy swinging a stick like a sword, a teenager training with a proper sword, and an adult man in knights' armor.
261
<LanceLynel>: "Commentary, Message, eh? Interesting."
262
<LanceLynel>: Lance starts to write the words in, and a miniature city seems to pop up from the floor.
263
<Trick>: "It could also use a hook. A unique and interesting set of circumstances."
264
<LanceLynel>: "Circumstance, Dilemmas and Events."
265
<Wrong_Way>: ["Yeah! And Vampires! And True Love! Like Twilight!"]
266
<LanceLynel>: As Lance continues to write, it seems hundreds of events show up; from families on the beach to dragons kidnapping princesses.
267
Wrong_Way looks at all these constructs filling up the room
268
<Wrong_Way>: "Uh...you sure we have enough room for all of them?
269
Clara watches lance's creations
270
<LanceLynel>: "Of course we do. All I need is to flip the page, and boom, they just go to sleep."
271
<LanceLynel>: "Or cross out the word and it goes."
272
Trick turns on his enhanced external awareness to simply see everything that's happening around the room.
273
<Wrong_Way>: "Huh. That's pretty cool."
274
<LanceLynel>: Lance sidesteps a rogue miniature helicopter, chuckling. "Yeah, it can be fun."
275
Wrong_Way tries to think of any other ascept
276
<LanceLynel>: "C'mon, it can be anything."
277
<Clara>: "Emotion, a feeling being evoked?"
278
<LanceLynel>: "Emotions, yes."
279
Trick turns to look at the clara and wrong_way
280
<LanceLynel>: "Now, seriously, just say anything. What do you like seeing in stories?"
281
<Trick>: "So what kinda story do you think this should be?"
282
<Clara>: "Well, if I remember, things usually fall into tragedy, irony, comedy, or romance"
283
<Clara>: "think we should start from there"
284
<LanceLynel>: "Okay, we have a foundation."
285
<Trick>: "...Can we make it a character drama?"
286
<Wrong_Way>: "Sure, if we have a villain."
287
<Clara>: "Good end or bad end? Best to decide early"
288
<LanceLynel>: "Not necessarily, Clara."
289
<LanceLynel>: "It's all about what works for you. For some, it's better to build as they go along."
290
<LanceLynel>: "Others like to plan in advance, be it for one book, a trilogy or even more."
291
<Trick>: "Let's do one of those stories where the antagonist was right all along, but you only realize like 3/4ths through the book and it's too late to fix what the main characters have done."
292
<Wrong_Way>: "...That sounds really mean to our main characters."
293
<LanceLynel>: "And in some ways, that's good."
294
<LanceLynel>: "People like to see what the main character is made of."
295
<LanceLynel>: "Beat him down, and watch him get back up."
296
<LanceLynel>: "A little sadistic, but eh, people have a mean streak."
297
<Clara>: "Or, we can build it up as to have the main character come to losing as they do because of their own decisions. A classic tragedy"
298
<Wrong_Way>: "Then why would anyone read that? Constantly getting beat up?"
299
<Clara>: "Well, the point usually is to sympathize while understanding what the main character has done wrong."
300
<Trick>: ["Iunno, but I've been reading Spiderman for however long now so..."]
301
<LanceLynel>: "It's not about getting beaten up. Well, it kind of is."
302
<Clara>: "Doesn't work for long running stories, but for a self contained story tragedy has made some of the most popular stories out there"
303
<LanceLynel>: "But it's about seeing them get up. No matter what life has thrown at them, they don't let up."
304
<Trick>: "The term is, uh... catharsis. You get the negative emotions out of your system empathetically through the stories you read."
305
<Clara>: "Greek tragedies and Shakespearean ones, big old obvious being Romeo and Juliet"
306
<Trick>: "So if you're angry, and you read an angry book, it helps you blow it all off and be done with it. Y'know?"
307
Clara has clearly spent a lot of time reading outside of the school curriculum
308
<Wrong_Way>: "I guess..."
309
Trick always surfs around on wikipedia on his phone whenever he's bored at work.
310
<Clara>: "Gatsby, Macbeth, Oedipus..." she lists a few
311
<LanceLynel>: "Okay now, let's start small Clara."
312
<LanceLynel>: "Now, one big thing in a story; things happen. I'm pretty sure we all agree on that?"
313
<Wrong_Way>: "Yeah, of course."
314
<Clara>: "Ahuh"
315
<LanceLynel>: "Right, so our main character, they'll have a goal."
316
<Wrong_Way>: "yep."
317
<LanceLynel>: "Let's start from there then. Who is our character, and what is their goal?"
318
Trick contemplates
319
Clara scratches her chin, thinking
320
<Wrong_Way>: "Uh.."
321
<Wrong_Way>: "Vampire. He's a vampire, but he wants to use his vampire powers for good and to get the girl."
322
Wrong_Way is visibly proud of his original character
323
<Clara>: ["We'll call him.... donut steel"]
324
<LanceLynel>: [I think you mean Iron Bagel]
325
<Clara>: "How about we make him a nosferatu looking vampire, horribly disfigured to the point of being a monster." she tries to salvage mark's idea
326
<Wrong_Way>: "That's boring..."
327
<Wrong_Way>: "He's already got the blood sucking part about him"
328
<Wrong_Way>: "He doesn't have to look too ugly."
329
<Clara>: bitch I'm stylin]
330
<Wrong_Way>: [blind]
331
<Clara>: http: //www.dvdbeaver.com/film/dvdcompare/nosferatu-1/Nosferatu%20Kino%204.jpg for you blind folk]
332
<LanceLynel>: [umm, sorry fellas, but is it okay if we leave it for now?]
333
<LanceLynel>: [It's around 2am, and, y'know...]
334
<Clara>: [sure]
335
<Wrong_Way>: [that's cool]
336
<Trick>: [alright]
