15 Griffin Way, Friday afternoon, PARTY

2007-09-07T14:49:19Z

The ground floor had been arranged for the party. The colour scheme was, of course, black and white. It couldn't be anything else really. To go with the theme the food and drinks had something of the same colours - black pasta, white wine, licorice, white chocolate, black drinks, white drinks and various white and black foods.

Emma had made checkered muffins. They might be safe for eating.

Music was playing in one area for the people who wanted to dance, and sofas and chairs had been set up for those who wanted to lounge.

Emma had dressed up in a white dress that covered more of her than her usual outfits and her hair was tied up. She regarded it all and saw it it was good. People could arrive whenever they wanted.

ooc: ~~Wait for OCD!~~ OCD is up! Come party!

2007-08-07T14:40:06Z

Tomorrow and Thursday I'm going to be visiting my sister, who is 'net-less. I'll be back again at some point on Friday. *hopes net will work on Friday*

I'm moving back to the flat next Friday, which shall be a joyous occasion filled with joy and happy things and intarwebs that don't randomly crap out!

...It'll also be filled with washing up, but am looking on bright side.

15 Griffin Way, Tuesday afternoon

2007-07-17T15:52:57Z

Emma had invited Gabriel, Aly and Constable Fraser for dinner. This did not mean that she would cook the dinner, as that would probably make people run screaming, and that was just not good for her hostess rep.

So she'd ordered a meal from Ching Tai. At some point she really had to check if Cafe Fina did takeaway, but for now, Chinese food and drinks. She finished setting the table, and went to throw out the takeaway boxes.

ooc: for those invited, and the housemate if he has a chinese food craving. And there is no OCD! None!

ooc: Access

2007-07-13T14:20:01Z

My access is currently dependent on the whims of the Goddess of Internets it seems. Apologizing in advance for any dropped threads that might happen as a result. Or already have. Sigh.

Soon there be uni tiem, yes, and my world will be high speed and not randomly disappeary again.

15 Griffin Way, Sunday Evening

2007-07-08T16:19:08Z

When the evening came, Emma surveyed her queendom and thought it was good. The food had arrived from Ching Tai, her muffins were done and decorated and might even be edible this time around, and the bar was fully stocked - Both with alcohol and weetiny umbrellas.

All that was needed now were the guests.

Emma smoothed down her dress and went to make herself a Cosmo while waiting.

(ooc: All teachers and townies invited! ~~Wait for~~ OCD is up!)

15 Griffin Way, Saturday Afternoon

2007-07-07T22:43:43Z

After a short talk with Ares, Emma made a recording of an invite for a party tomorrow and set her computer to call everyone tagged with Fandom in her Address Book and leave the message. The party would be to welcome the new teachers to town (and possibly traumatize them with stories of their new students), and because Emma really wanted a party, damnit.

She was sitting in the kitchen, leaned back in a chair and reading menus from every take out place in town to try and decide what to serve when Steve called her back.

ooc: Establishy! But you can use this post to RSVP if you want.

15 Griffin Way, Friday afternoon

2007-06-15T18:35:58Z

Emma came home from a very confusing lunch to find her voicemail blinking.

There was one from Fraser! Which she returned after a moments thought. She wasn't sure who Roy Mustang was, but dinner sounded nice. So she called to say so. When she got to the next message, she laughed for five minutes straight and saved the message. Best news ever! She hoped it was true.

She had no idea who the following message was from, so she had to call back to find out.

OOC: Info post

2007-05-11T18:22:39Z

I take the easy way out and link to the fhwiki entries.

Buffy Summers. Cliffnotes: She's tiny, enthusiastic about cheerleading and sharp weaponry, doesn't yet know Angel or much of her future (except that at some point she'll get a sister - she thinks Dawn is adopted) and is spending the second summer term in Sunnydale which she'll be seeing for the first time.

She is from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Guess which one she is.

Important note for cabin-mates: She's bringing Berthold with her, but he'll mostly stay under her bed so they needn't even know he's there unless they want to.

Emma Frost. Cliffnotes: She wears white, it's probably skimpy and shows off her boobs, she's very much in love with Scott Summers, but that doesn't keep her from flirting and she's a telepathic living diamond.

She is from the world of the X-Men.

Sabriel. Cliffnotes: She's just arrived! She's a reverse Necromancer; she puts dead things back to death instead of bringing them back. She's determined, unused to being around boys and responsible. She's also kind of impatient and doesn't like it when people pretend to be something they're not. She is a magic user.

She is from the Abhorsen trilogy, which you should so read.

Questions? Comments? Coffee?

Office hours: Emma Frost, Monday

2007-04-30T16:15:49Z

After having put up the grades Emma was cleaning out her office for the summer vacation, since she'd always want to be just like other teachers and have one. She wouldn't miss any of the students. At all. Which was why she was carefully putting the photos from the home ec final into her purse.

The door is open.

15 Griffin Way, Monday Morning

2007-04-16T14:41:35Z

Emma was in the kitchen happily making herself breakfast - a fruit salad and a cup of tea - and having quite a good morning altogether. She even had the Daily Bugle to read. This was going to be a good day, she could tell.

ooc:open!

Office hours: Emma Frost, Friday

2007-04-06T12:31:16Z

For the first time in a couple of weeks, Emma remembered about office hours and her minions. She grabbed a bunch of interior decorating magazines, brewed herself a cup of tea and settled in behind her desk with both.

ooc: open!

Monday morning, 15 Griffin Way

2007-03-26T10:56:53Z

There was always a background hum of voices in her head, even when she wasn't consciously listening in. It was just there, the same way she smelled or heard or saw. She was talking to Negasonic Teenage Warhead who was telling her about her nightmares when every voice in her head screamed out at the same time in terror, fear and pain and then she blacked out.

When she woke up, everyone was dead.

The silence was deafening.

She held up a hand and watched her diamond skin with detached curiousity. She wasn't sure how long she sat there in the darkness, with only Negasonic Teenage Warhead's body for company.

Then there were noises...

Scraping against rock, voices and bells ringing.

Bells ringing?

Emma jerked awake. "What? What?" Oh. Doorbell. She got up and pulled on a robe before going downstairs to answer the door. Outside a big ceramic thing stood holding a package.

"Delivery For Emma Frost," it rumbled at her. "Sign Here, Please."

Slightly confused, Emma signed the proffered piece of paper and received the brightly coloured box.

The ceramic postman looked at her and said, solemnly, "Have A Good Day."

"Likewise," Emma said politely and closed the door.

The box contained five Hawaiian t-shirts, a bright green neon handbag, post-its in a variety of colours and a tin of tea. Emma stared, baffled. After some searching, she finally located a note inside the handbag.

ooc: Gladys modded with permission!

Office hours: Emma Frost: Thursday, after lunch

2007-03-22T13:16:56Z

Emma settled down behind her desk with a copy of Wall Street Journal and a cup of coffee. Today's outfit was a blouse and hotpants combined with very high boots. Shockingly, it was all in white.

ooc: Open, especially for people who need mentoring. *coughs*

15 Griffin Way, Saturday Noon

2007-03-10T19:52:07Z

Emma knew it had been raining for a while and that the water levels had been going up, but she still hadn't expected to walked down the stairs and half way down step into water. "What the hell?" she exclaimed staring down at her wet slippers.

She poked her head down and stared at the living room. A pillow floated merrily by. A crab was sitting on it. "What the hell?" Emma repeated.

The crab waved a claw at her.

Emma glared. She was hungry, and now her feet were wet, and her carpet was probably completely destroyed. She disapproved of this state of affairs.

Office hours: Emma Frost: Thursday, after lunch

2007-03-08T15:04:37Z

Thankfully, Emma didn't arrive at the school until noon. Which meant that most of the changed students had already woken up, and she wasn't stuck with high pitched shrieks in her head.

Instead she was sitting behind her desk with a long white scarf wrapped around her neck, downing cup upon cup of hot tea, and having no idea anything was wrong.

ooc: open!

15 Griffin Way: No mail today (Sunday afternoon)

2007-02-25T20:30:41Z

Emma didn't expect mail on Sundays. She did however expect mail the rest of the week, and there hadn't been anything. Not a bill, not a newspaper, not her new Victoria's Secret catalogue ~~and not a letter from Scott begging her to come back~~. Emma did not approve. She wanted her mail, and she wanted it now. She hmphed, stared out of her window and wondered who she could complain to about this.

establishy, but open if you want.

Office hours: Emma Frost: Thursday, all school hours

2007-02-22T20:53:20Z

Emma started drinking when she heard Jamie's morning announcement. Jamie as principal was high up on her list of nightmare inducing senarios. The fact that this was real just added to the nightmare factor.

ooc: open for mentored students and any others!

Office hours, Emma Frost, Thursday, all day

2007-02-15T21:47:31Z

The roses she'd received yesterday had been put in a vase and were currently brightening up her desk. Emma was sitting behind the desk, trying very hard not to stare suspiciously at the roses and focus on grouping people up for the midterm.

ooc: Open, especially for Shawn and Bridge!

OOC: Home Economics MidTerm

2007-02-06T18:13:03Z

Midterm: Week 7: Feb 19-23 - Lunch with the Chef. Students will participate in the making of lunch and handing it out.

What I have in mind is that the students are split into four groups of four and one of five and handwavily
participate in cooking the food -- oocly they help decide the menu -- and sign in to the Lunch post
to play cafeteria people, handing out the food, cleaning up, etc.

One group per day starting with Monday 19th.

Because the chef puts up the Lunch post the night before, you need to get your meal suggestion in to him the day before.

All students in each group get to decide one meal.

I.E: Alec = Cake, Peter = Pudding, Layla = Hamburgers, etc.

Please sign up in OCD thread under the date/day you want.

There will not be a class on Tuesday that week.

Office hours: Emma Frost, Monday, 3nd period until end of classes

2007-02-05T14:20:09Z

After meeting the school board at the brunch, Emma walked up to the school and settled in in her office in case anyone wanted to give her stuff to hide. She'd also be happy to refer anyone with questions to Hades. Very, very happy. She might even helpfully suggest questions to ask if you don't have any already.

ooc: open!

15 Griffin Way, after classes, Party!

2007-01-20T01:04:51Z

The doors were open and welcoming teachers and any dates they might have managed to get to the cocktail party to celebrate another week of surviving teaching.

The party area was set up with a mixture of very comfortable black or white furniture. What belonged to who of the inhabitants was pretty obvious from the design. There was a bar set up with some of Ares' handmaidens behind, ready to hand out whatever drinks needed. There were other handmaidens walking around with serving trays with fancy foods on. There was also one carrying a tray of muffins. Emma wasn't giving up yet.

There was room for dancing, and many dark corners to do unseen things in.

ooc: ~~wait for~~ ocd is up! Come party!

OOC: another lemming leaps gleefully off the cliff Emma Frost, Jake Gavin jr, Buffy Summers

2007-01-05T14:37:36Z

I am linking to canon information so you can have a look at that if you're interested. This is probably the shortest OOC character information post ever, so feel free to ask questions.

If you really want to know about Emma in canon, the wiki entry on her is a good source of information.

What you need to know about her is that she's a bitch and prides herself on it. She's always dressed in white, usually in a way that flatters her figure. She's telepathic and will casually read your mind if it's possible.

Her greatest telepathic skill is the ability to enter your mind and manipulate specific parts of it, which means that she can literally stop you from moving, give you an orgasm or blind you (etc). She will only do this if necessary - if students are fighting each other for instance.

She can also turn into diamond all the way through, and she does not feel anything in that shape. She's as strong as diamond. The only way to hurt her in that shape would be to shatter her with, say, a diamond bullet. I'd rather no one did that, since that would also kill her and there are no Beast and Phoenix to put her back together again. You can still kick her across the room or something though!

Jake has appeared in the Deadpool: Circle Chase mini-series and the first on-going Gambit comicbook. Gambit summaries, Jake's girl shape and Jake's powers.

In Fandom, Jake loves coffee, draws, changes shape every once in a while (though he tends to keep the black hair and the blue eyes), avoids fighting as much as he can, whines and is generally lazy. He's been trying to convince his dad to let him join the family business Infonet International Inc as a courier, and seems to have finally managed it. His loyalty will always lie first and foremost with Infonet.

He's friendly and approachable (unless you're trying to steal his coffee or his Krycek).

Due to his power of complete control over his cells, he can heal from everything up to a gun shot though the head, and poisons and gases don't affect him at all.

Buffy's Wiki entry.

Buffy is the head Cheerleader in Fandom and the driving force of getting a squad started in the first place. The fact that she's a Slayer is known since a lot of people have known a version of her, but since there is a lack of random vampires and evil things that need killing on a nightly basis, that part of her hasn't gotten much of a showing (yet). This Buffy has never been Sunnydale. She came to Fandom instead.

She's bouncy and outgoing. She loves shopping. She also loves the fact that here she is not the "only girl in all the world". She used to date Sam Winchester, and she's a proud member of the Meerkat cabin.

Buffy shares a room with River Tam, and she has a tentacled monster named Berthold living under her bed.

ETA: I am in Norway, and I try to be in bed at 17:00 PST at the latest. On the other hand, I'm usually online from 07:00 PST, so.

OOC: Home Economics

2007-01-01T01:54:49Z

Emma Grace Frost (Miss Frost to you) will be teaching Home Economics. Since her main experience with this is to hire a chauffeur, a cook, a maid and giving orders to tailors and various other hired staff, she'll probably be teaching it badly.

She will try, mind you, but it might not always go so well. *points to icon*

Home Economics will cover some basic things like cooking (truffles and frog-legs, anyone?), cleaning (how to vacuum, how to use a washer), childcare (and this kid will be screaming, oh yes), family planning and budgets*. It will be fun! And educational!

~~Anyone want to take the chance to TA this class?~~ I guarantee you plenty of facepalming and/or ogling the teacher moments!

Apply in comments with your brilliant qualifications. Comments screened.

*Other things might pop up too. Not literally. Probably.

PS:
Happy New Years from the future!

ETA:
Class requirements: Signing in. Interaction with other students encouraged and appreciated (gossiping with your neighbour counts), but not necessary. Big happy from me if you actually do the assignment.

Detention: 3 missed classes without IC/OOC explanation. Otherwise, whenever you particularly annoy Emma, or want a detention. If you're being particularly rude or disruptive I'll give detention no matter what, but the rest of the time I'll be checking OOC that it's okay.

TA: Will be expected to assist Emma during classes, and teach the class if I can't for whatever reason. Possibly also playing NPCs during class.

TA acquired!
