Please don't talk about classes starting soon. Right now in Israel it's the final night of summer vacation... *sigh*, tomorrow morning, school once again.
Oh well.
Anyway, I got you. Do you want me to handle it or do you people think you can organize this yourselves? You have been doing great with far more complex things until now.

Oh, poor Oneirius.

I'd be okay with doing it myself, but everyone probably has different ideas of what they want to do as subjects and it would just be a good idea to post up a list of available subjects again so that people can actually see them to get a decent idea of what subjects they want to do.

I know what you mean, here in Britain they start on Friday though.

Friday? Are you sure? I have until the 21st. =P

Maybe, just in case her spell went wrong, she should have someone on hand to give the counterspell? It wouldn't hurt to have someone adept, but the people she knew (and was willing to talk to) weren't magical at all. Rochelle was learning, but wouldn't be close to being able to cast magic with any level of confidence for a while yet, and Sven's race didn't seem all that fussed with magic either. Even a relatively simple counterspell would be too tricky for them...

Trying to cast the spell without a possible counterspell would be really bad. Manipulation always was a tricky blighter of a magical subcategory: Let it catch you unprepared and you could wind up half-and-half.[footnote]Half girl half boy is the very kindest version of a failed hybridising manipulation. Lillith had unwillingly laid witness to a manipulation of a wizard from a young boy to an Amorphous/Chimera hybrid. Even after the counterspell was applied, he was never quite the same ever again...[/footnote] Unless she could think of a decent counter-caster she might have to settle for an illusionary spell rather than a manipulative one.

These were all thoughts she had on her way to the library, just trying to distract herself from thinking about him. To her credit, she was doing pretty well thus far.

She spent a last couple of minutes slithering hither and tither before finding a plaque next to an ornately decorated door. "Library - Sonimancy[footnote]A little-known magical subcategory specialising solely in the creation and manipulation of sound. In this context it was meant as librarian's humour.[/footnote] forbidden beyond this point."

Lillith slithered inside, remembering to keep as quiet as possible, before she slithered off down one of the seemingly endless aisles of books. She assumed alphabetical order of categories would be the order, with A-F up at the front, so she just had to search for M...

I still have Rochelle's class timetable written up. If I remember correctly, there's a list of example subjects posted in the RP's user-group... which could probably use a remake, now that I think about it. Because Alotak's no longer in the RP, and he owns the group, we can't exactly get new people in to check out what we've been discussing and suchlike. But I digress. I can post the lists here if you want me to.

Got it. Also, any ideas to get my character to interact with any others?

...Uh... Magic? Run into them, literally or otherwise? Transform into a mouse and try to find one of the other players to mess with? You should probably ask someone who didn't have to make up their own NPC to have something to post. =P

I decided that for you... however many of you there are who don't have subjects picked out yet, that you should get a list of subjects. Here they are. Pick out, say, 5 to 7 of them. I guess it wouldn't hurt for J1 and CA to remind me what their subjects are again so I don't have to searching through the pages to find out too.

And thanks for offering CA. It would just be nice if you could post up your own subjects though so I can attempt to find a way to correlate them with everyone else's.

Tomorrow though. Brain hurts... [small]Going to sleep now...[/small] [sub]Nighty-night...[/sub]

I'd post the timetable in both table form and list form, but I can't figure out how to create tables on the Escapist. Could someone please help me with that? I've seen revolver do it, and I've got one in my Word document, so I figured it would be easiest to do both forms.

Classes haven't actually started yet, so it could be any day of the week unless Oneirius says otherwise. The gaps are probably breaks in the timetable; I would know, there are plenty in my own.

Jeffery leaned back in his chair staring up at the far off ceiling off the library trying out of sheer boredom to make out the mural on the ceiling.

"what am I still doing here?, might just get back to my room" Jeffery leaned forward on his chair noticing that there was now a sealed envelope on the reading table, Jeffery looked from side to side and picked up the envelope opening it to find two slips of paper: one of them Jeffery `s timetable and the other the list of books he would need.

"hooray I got into demonology" Jeffery said quietly to himself raising his hand into the air for a small fist pump before taking a look at the books he would need.

"there is no way in hell I`m going to, or could for that matter search around this library for these books, maybe someone at the front desk could actually help" Jeffery thought getting to his feet and looking down one of the long rows of shelves for a second before finally advancing inwards heading towards the front lobby and sitting down at a desk, looking up to see Rochelle sitting across from him, Jeffery glanced at her for a second before taking out his iPod and putting on 'diamond eyes' by Shinedown.

Rochelle looked around at the stranger sitting down opposite her. He looked familiar... he was the guy who had run into her, and the same guy who she believed to be connected to the explosion. She leaned over and said quietly, "I recognise you... we met earlier - a few times, actually - but you never introduced yourself." She stopped at the sight of the guy's earbuds. The music he was listening to was most likely drowning out her voice. He probably didn't want to be disturbed.

Either that or he just didn't want to talk to her. So rude, the angel thought as she got up and moved to another table, purposefully sitting with her back to the guy. If you're gonna sit down with someone, at least have the decency to talk to them.

Jeffery heard a small whisper of a voice interrupting his music, he took out his iPod and paused what was currently playing and looked around to see Rochelle had moved to a different table, sitting with her back to him.

"what the hell is her problem?, I did`nt even talk to her" Jeffery thought staring at the back of Rochelle`s head, confused and slightly annoyed for a few seconds before shrugging it off and facing back to the front, staring at the desk intensely as if it could speed up whoever was supposed to be there's return not bothering to put his music back on.

Think from Gabriella's perspective. Which classes would she be likely to take based on her race, personality and background? Judging by your sheet - if it were me - I would choose a fair few of the more mundane subjects because she's used to them, on account of being raised in a similar manner to human upbringing, but a couple of the supernatural classes as well. Personally, I think Manipulation magic, Alchemy, and Shapeshifting would be suitable for your character.

But this is just what I think. It's up to you, really.

Edit: Of course, I realise this might not be news to you.

I'm going to change my timetable a bit to work in sync with the rest of the timetables and to replace a lesson or two with something I think Lillith would be more likely to enjoy/make use of. I don't see any reason why anyone would have any problem with that.

I'll type up the list later.

Unless I am mistaken, it's Wednesday in the RP, probably some time between 11:00 and 12:00 judging from how we haven't had dinner yet, but that's just an educated guess. I'm probably on my own watch here rather than anyone else's but who else is sad enough to keep track of all these little things but me, eh?

Schedule coming as soon as possible (most likely tomorrow morning).

Also, I kinda have us on Tuesday, since I had Sven visiting his shrink "yesterday," which I remember stating he always does on Mondays.
