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...

Welcome Ms. Ferguson!

I am Elisabeth Braddock and will be one of your teachers this upcoming term. I cannot excuse your family's behavior, but it is in the past and one must move forward from such things.

Now, if memory serves me correctly, your roommates are Marie-Ange and Rahne. Both lovely girls and I'm sure you'll enjoy their company.

I do apologize for the nature of the school. Everyone has been running around with last minute preparations for Christmas and the semi-formal.

Oh yes, and we do have a fencing room. Though, you'll need someone to assess your level before letting you romp around in there on your own.

From this moment on, Xavier's will be your home away from home, Clarice. Here's to new beginnings.

Ms Braddock,

there's a fencing room!? Where????

...and there's a semi-formal? is it mandatory?

[x-psylocke.livejournal.com]

As much work has been put into it, I would personally like for you to attend. And no, it isn't mandatory. Though it may give you an idea of what you've gotten into. Especially, who you're classmates will be, at least most of them.

Fencing room, hmmm. Now where did I see it last?

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

is it at the school or somewhere else?
also, do I have to wear a dress? I don't think I have one, but I can probably find something.

[x-psylocke.livejournal.com]

It is within the school and I'll show you where when you've gotten settled.

Nevermind me, I do enjoy teasing the newcomers.

Oh, and we can arrange for you to wear something. Since you might not have had the time to claim your dress clothes from home.

okay! :) I'm sure I can come up with something!

If I am guessing right, from the interesting piles of luggage - and the picture, maybe an emergency trip to the mall would be in order, if Doctor McCoy can find one of the spare image inducers?

The mall has Hot Topic, and another store that is similar. And corndogs on sticks, which is not one of its high points, unless you ask Jubilee

I don't know about you, but I can skip corndog on a stick and head straight to hot topic. I need the nightmare before christmas stuff.

hell, I need to not shop online.

Jubilee is obsessed with making me eat one.

Hot Topic is not usually my store for shopping, although I like some of the less risque things.

it is not the place for semi-formals, but if you haven't already noticed, most of my wardrobe is from there.

I like plaid. They have great stuff.

Re: ...

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

I am sure that on short notice, we could find something close to semi-formal.

Or at least, a skirt and top.

Re: ...

[x-blink.livejournal.com]

I have skirts in every conceivable plaid possible. and many that shouldn't've been conceived. like some people (not you. just thinking).

Re: ...

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

.. Hrm.

I think.. maybe, if you have a purple-and-black, then a black silk shirt might work.

Then, you get plaid and looking almost semi-formal!

we shall see what we find on Friday, getting out to anywhere if I can would be the best XMas prezzie ever.
