A By-Chance Meeting

Q: What is the Twitter Feed? A: The twitter feed is basically Metric’s gossip blog. It’s run by an anonymous user who goes by Campus Sweetheart. No one knows who this person is, but whoever they are, they must be attending Metric at either the High School or College Level. The things said on the Twitter feed vary in terms of authenticity, but everything that is said on the Twitter feed exists to cause drama. Characters may reference the Twitter feed either in the IC cbox or in in-character posts.

Gossip Twitter is run by Kenzie and any gossip requests may be PMed to her. She will add them to the Twitter feed when applicable.

Q: What is the IC Cbox?: A: The IC cbox is basically like the regular cbox, except all posts must be in character on it.

Q: What is the plotbox?: A: The plotbox is like the chatting cbox except reserved for plotting. This way people can plot things among one another while also leaving the chatbox open for regular conversation. Please take plots/gushing about RPs to plotbox if other people pop on the cbox, this way both conversations can carry on and no one will be dwarfed.

Q: What is the Ghost rumor for?: A: The ghost rumor started on the original forum, inspired for Halloween and horror themed roleplays. You may use the legend of the Powell family to your hearts content for spooky type roleplays, though keep in mind writer Pierce has created a character for one of the Powell children .

Please PM Kenzie if you think there’s anything else that should be mentioned in this sidebar.

||Moira's Ourfit||Gabriel's Garb||

It was a good day to be outside in the fresh air! The leaves were turning and the colors were absolutely perfect to get her creativeness flowing! Finding a spot where she could comfortably sit down, Moira fished out her sketchbook from her bag as well as a pencil. It was time to get designing!

Chewing on the end of her utensil, she let her eyes gaze over the grounds and some of the students she could see outside as well. Not far from her there was a boy dancing to music most likely in his head. His graceful movements inspired her and she began to draw furiously, looking up every so often to watch how the fabric of his clothes moved with his body.

The music in his head was peaceful, serene. On days like this it was wonderful to get out and do some dancing in the crisp fall air. Though normally he would have disregarded his suit jacket, the slight chill in the air discouraged Gabriel from doing so, keeping it on to avoid catching cold.
His foot stumbled and he stopped his dancing, catching himself before he could face-plant into the ground.

He didn't notice the girl watching him, he just continued his movements, listening to the music he heard from within. He was going to dance for as long as he could. Though if someone were to approach him he would stop and chat. he was determined not to be a shut-in this year.

Benji stood walking pass Moria. His ukulele sat in his case around his shoulder "Nice sketch?" he said as he looked over her shoulder. "you design clothes?" He asked as he looked at her picture. "You mind if I sit here?"He asked as he took a seat next to her, He was wearing and red and blue cardigan and a pair of jeans with a red shirt under his cardigan.

Luna walked towards the ground with her bag in her arms. She just got out of ballet practice. he pulled out her Gameboy and was playing Pokémon red. She looked up to see a boy dancing in fount of her as she bumped into him. Her bag falling off her shoulder and her ballet outfit falling out "I am so sorry. I need to pay more attention to where I am going." she said picking up her stuff.

Moira jumped slightly when someone spoke to her. She offered a smile to the young man who sat beside her. She was used to compliments on her work from other students, but the always seemed to make her blush and feel giddy inside. It was nice to be appreciated.

"Why, yes, actually I do. Thank you for the compliment." Putting her pencil behind her ear, Moira extended her hand to him in greeting. "I'm Moira. Pleased to meet you."

He fumbled in his step when he was bumped into. A look of surprise came across his face and he spun around, looking at the girl then down to her things on the ground. Gabriel stooped to assist her, noting the ballet shoes inside her bag.

"It's fine, I should be more aware of my surroundings.. You here for ballet? What a coincidence, I am too!" He offered her a small smile. "I'm Gabriel. Though most people call me Gabe."

"Okay Gabe I am Luna and yes I am here for ballet. so."She said with her Russian accent come out as she blushed. "So those where some nice moves can I show you some?"she asked him as she smiled. She started to do some moves moving gracefully,

"I am Benjamin but my friends and family call me Benji?" He said shaking her hand. "so what to hear me my Play?"He said to her as he pulled out his ukulele. He played some where over the rainbow,

Tucking a piece of hair behind her ear, Moira gave Benjamin--Benji-- a small nod. She bit her lip gently as she listened, watching his fingers as he strummed the strings of his ukulele. After a few moments of watching and listening she felt inspired so she grabbed her pencil and began to design an outfit, looking up at Benji from time to time.

When he had finished playing, Moira folded her hands together. "Wow, Benji. You play really well. I admire your stamina to have learned to the point you play so well." She added a smile to the end of her sentence.

He stood there for a moment or two, watching Luna dance. Her moves were practices, studied, but flowing like water. Gabriel watched her closely, picking up on a tempo and he cleared his throat, offering a hand to her, bowing low.

"Would you mind if I joined you?" he asked her permission before making any movements. he wanted to be sure she was okay dancing with him. He felt he could compliment her movements and grace.

"I would be honored to have you as a dance partner." She said bowing as well. She took his hand in hers and waited for him to Lead. "You Lead Gabe?" He said to him smiled at him. "so I will follow your lead." He said to him.

"thanks and can I see what your drawing? Just like your drawings and your designs it takes practice to get good and your good" Benji said as he finished his song. "so your new here?"he asked him as he smiled

A slight pink rose to her cheeks and she let out a small, nervous laugh as she put her pencil back into its place behind her ear. Moira slid her sketchbook over to reveal what she had been drawing: an outfit for Benji. It wasn't colored in just yet, but the design called for some pastels hidden amongst deeper tones. Of course, the part she had been focusing on for the last minute or so was drawing his face. She felt as thought the drawing were incomplete without it.

"Yeah.." She spoke quietly. "I only started coming this year because it took me forever to convince my parents to let me come.."

Gabe smiled softly and nodded, taking a beginning stance for a moment. Gingerly, he placed his free hand to her shoulder blade, spinning her slowly around and beginning to dance with her, moving lightly on the balls of his feet. His movements were precise but gentle, not too overpowering so her own gracefulness was not drowned out.

You are a wonderful dancer," He spoke to her as they began their duet. "How long have you been studying?"

Moira twirled a strand of her hair around her finger. "Well.. If you would like I can make the outfit for you.." She took the sketchbook back and flipped it closed.

At the inquiry he gave her, she shook her head slightly. It was not somethign she liked to share, how her parents belittled her work. Instead she decided to focus on his statement about being taught by his family. "So are your family members all musicians then?"

Moira shifted, turning so her whole body faced him. That way she could focus on him.

Gabriel smiled slightly and lifted her up, surprised at himself as to how little effort it took. He must have built up more strength than the last time he had attempted lifting another person. "Well you've been dancing longer than I have. I've only been studying since I was eight."

He turned around then set her on the ground so she could continue dancing with him. He was focused on the moves, letting himself be whisked away in their duet. It had been a long time since he had done anything as fun as this. It was nice to have a partner for once.

"Well I would be honored if you would make me an outfit. Its hard to explain my father and my mom's dad played in their spare time and taught me. I learned ukulele and bass by practicing. I was home schooled when I was younger so I had a lot of free time. "He said looking down as he don't talk about his parent often.

"well its one of the few things I enjoy." Luna said as he looked down at him smiled as he picked her up. she was a very petite as easy to carry. "so any Plans for today I wanted to get something to eat?"She asked him as they danced together.

Her attention was locked on keeping eye contact, nodding in acknowledgement of his words. At the acceptance of her offer to create an outfit for him, she grinned. She enjoyed making personalized arrangements for others. Most of the time though she had people asking her to make specific things and she couldn't design let alone create when she was uninspired. Which was why she preferred to offer her services rather than accept requests.

"Well you play beautifully, Benji. I take it your music is why you are here?" She asked him, crossing her legs and resting her chin in her hands.

Gabriel pursed his lips together in thought, mirroring some of her movements. "Well, to be quite honest.. No, I didn't have plans for today. I mean, it's not like I know a lot of people here."

He hadn't even met his suitemates yet. but most of that was due to the craziness of moving in. And he had really wanted to spend some time outdoors. The only place like this in New York City was Central Park and no matter what he got lost in there.

"Although," he began. "I was thinking of grabbing something to eat soon. Perhaps we could eat together? I would like to get to know you, if you wouldn't mind."

"You would? I meant sure I would love to get to you as well Gabe." She said as she pulled away from him a little bit. "I know I only really know my teachers and my fellow dance students, So I know the felling." she said smiled as he held her. "So we should dance a lot more together?"She said to her as she smiled.

"yeah but I here for my singing and playing but I also am into the production side of music. so what about you hw did you get into fashion design?" He asked her sitting with her as he smiled. "So need anything from me for the outfit?"he asked her as he smiled.

She smiled and reached into her bag, pulling out her tape measure she always kept handy. "Well, Mr. Benji, I am going to need your measurements. I can't make your clothes fit without them!"

Moira offered him a small laugh. "I suppose the first thing I need from you is your chest circumference. Arms up please!" It was best to get that one out of the way since it was actually one of the most difficult to measure, like waist sizes.

Gabriel nodded in agreement with her when she mentioned only knowing those she had classes with. Wasn't it the way it went around here? Though he supposed friendships came a little later. But that didn't mean he couldn't start that now. Luna seemed decent enough, nice even.

"Sure! I would enjoy that! Besides, we could use each other for practice. I feel like we dance well together. Very hard to find in a dance partner." Stopping and fixing his coat, he rolled his shoulders slightly before politely bowing to her. "Thank you for the dance. I enjoyed it very much."

"Okay but be careful I am ticklish." He said lifting his arms up for Moira as she took his measurements. "okay just be careful around my armpits?" He said to her as he stood still for her. "So Moira can we meet again I had fun just talking to you?" He said as he stood there looking at her. "So I would like to pay for the materials if you want me too?" He said to her.

"Cool yeah its hard to find partner and one you work well with? We did work very well together?" she said bowing back as she smiled. "so Gabe want to come with so I can get a few this from my room?" Luna asked as she wanted to get out of her sweats and into something nicer.
