I was told to post something here about me. So:

I'm Clarice Ferguson. I'm 15. I'm purple. I also hate my fucking parents for dumping me here on 4 hours notice. I also hate them for making me stay in the house for nearly three months!!

For my own protection they said. Well, bah! Fuck that! Then they send me here! Which, I suppose is better, at least there seem to be grounds and whatnot. But still, online shopping is LAME.

Please tell me there is something salvagable here? swords maybe? I fence foil and sabre. A dance team (not that I expect to compete, but anyways) - SOMETHING?

also, where are my roommates? I see 2 beds and no people...

okay, we'll give it a try. just remember, I like stay vertical!

[x-sanfuaiyaa.livejournal.com]

I look forward to it.

Oh, cool. They're great. :) Rahne's from Scotland, and Marie-Ange is from France, and they're pretty much two of the nicest people here.

Oh come on, you're warning people now? Where's the fun in that?

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

you must be Sarah. why is she warning me about you?

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

Sorry, Sarah.

You get the next one, kay?

One previously absent roommate reporting in....

We'd been out shopping for the semiformal, actually. If we hadn't left already by the time you got here, we could have asked about an image inducer, if you wanted.... We can do that next time?

...Speaking of matching clothes to skin (as you did to Shinobi), I think I saw a dress that might go with yours. here (http://www.vintageous.com/v2005.htm)'s a picture that looks quite like it, though the one we saw wasn't nearly so expensive. It shows the color pretty well though.

And it does sound very sudden, their bringing you here, but from some of the things I've heard, depending on where you were, your parents might have had reason to hide you. :/ But I don't suppose 'tis any of my business.

Thank you, Jamie. *smiles*

[x-marrow.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm Sarah. And I have no idea why she's warning you about me. Ask her, I guess.

[x-marrow.livejournal.com]

I'm hurt. I really am.

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

No, not the hurt!Sarah!

No one can resist (not like that) the hurt!Sarah...

hi Rahne! That's a pretty dress, I think I will have to take you up on teh offer to get it for the semi-formal!

My parents are well meaning, but strange. I think now, they did the right thing, but I still don't like HOW they did it. Ah well.

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

I'm asking, Paige.

Re: One previously absent roommate reporting in....

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

We might be able to go and get it Friday morning. I understand it might even be marked down more the day after Christmas. I'll ask.

I think now, they did the right thing, but I still don't like HOW they did it. Ah well.

Well, it does sound as if that would be hard to like.

I need an image thing. this could be interesting. or very very scary.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Image inducer. It's a gadget Dr. McCoy (I think) came up with, that Kitty can explain better than I can, but basically what it does is it covers you in a hologram. Sort of. I'm not sure if it's an actual hologram or not, because it looks real, not all rainbow-colored like holograms on comic book covers. Anyway, it makes you look different. Alison uses them because she's famous, and Kurt and Dr. McCoy use them because they're blue, and it saves on all the inconvenient questions. They're probably kind of expensive, but I bet they'll lend you one if you're careful with it.

Sarah, naughty thing that she is, is trying to make "newbie intimidation" a professional sport.

She trains at the mansion.

I swear, she's... nice after. No, really!

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

oh that would be all kinds of goodness!! I'll be extra special good with a cherry on top!

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

so far she hasn't been intimidating. I think maybe she's feeling nice because it's Christmas. or else she just like purple.

Hi, Clarice. I'm Doug. I room with Jamie, Artie, and Miles. Sorry to hear about your parents sucking, excited to hear that there's another video game addict on campus, and more in the vein of generic greetings. Like Paige said, there's plenty of friendly people who can double as tour guides. Like me. :) Feel free to drop by any time to ask questions, talk, whatever.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Well, Ms. Blaire has used them, so at least I know they can do a female image....

[x-marrow.livejournal.com]

I'm an equal-opportunity intimidator. I don't play favorites.

[x-marrow.livejournal.com]

I'll let you in on a little secret. I don't like Christmas.
