This is a retired RP journal for the now-closed avoria_academy.

The mun can be contacted at suzumiesque and at toastytangerine. Please feel free to friend me at either of those places =)♥

And MUCH LOVE for all you Avorians♥

The new pastel baby-themed decor is cute, although I do have to wonder how long it's going to last. Maybe I should start collecting stuffed animals in addition to lamps-- I've stopped bothering to count how many times I nearly trip over stuffed animals or find them in unexpected places.

And late though I may be, congratulations to the new parents~

And-- Maria? Sorry I haven't been around much. Looks like someone did come by and help you out, which is good, so, yeah. Sorry about that, and hope you're feeling at least a little bit better!

Bastet's growing up quite beautifully, and she's completely adorable except for the way she always seems to lie down on my books and cover up more of the page than a kitten really should be able to. But she really is the sweetest kitten~

That... was interesting. Um. Sorry if I was a bit annoying or bothersome to anyone.

It's good to be back to myself. I do wonder about the damage to the city, though... And the number of dead people. It-- was a little worrisome to see the sort of chaos that erupted when people turned into completely different beings.

But repairs will be made, and feelings will mellow, and hopefully all will be well-- as well as things can be in Avoria, anyway.

Oh-- I completely forgot about all my schoolwork!! Looks like this is going to be another late night...

U-um, um, hi everyone~!!

If, um, if, if anyone needs help I will do my best! Um, I'm only practicing still so-- so I'm really really sorry if I mess up!! But I'm trying very very hard, so, so um, please help me practice and if you need anything I'll do it for you!

[[Some sort of generic cute fairy-thing XD And no memories~ ;3]]

So, given that most of the kids seem to have grown up suddenly, I think I can attribute this sudden increase in my ability to play the violin to the same event. Oh well, I'll enjoy it while I can~ It's really helping on the Mendelssohn I'm working on. I guess it's comforting to know that in a few years-- however long it takes me to reach whatever age I seem to have grown to-- I'll be getting better.

So, anyway, anyone know how people get to college in Avoria~? Do high school seniors automatically advance to the college here, or is there some application process? I was wondering about it back in November, when applications probably would have started, but I guess I sort of... let go of that thought.

Umm... c-can someone show me how to get home?

I'm Hotaru an' I live on, um, [*insertaddresshere because I'm uncreative*], an' I have two mamas and a papa an' if you know the violinist Michiru that's my mama, an' um my papa Haruka drives really good, an' my mama Setsuna's a fashion designer, an' if, if you know them can you please take me home?

I wasn' s'posed to go out alone but it was only the backyard!! I didn't mean to get lost! I only wanted to go look under the tree and when I turned around everything was different!

[[GUH. Meant to post this yesterday, but brain has been a bit fried XD So Hotaru only gets to go chibi for a day, ohwell~ This is a... four or five-ish year old Hotaru, I think? *again, the bad at estimating ages thing*]]

Mmm, I really ought to get up and work on things...
The constant sunlight is really weird, it's disrupting my circadian rhythm-- which you'd think wouldn't even really be there that much anymore, except that it is. Didn't sleep so well last "night", if you can call it that, and I've been taking sporadic little naps during the day, between reading, listening to music, and eating snacks.

... Oh, well. It's a Sunday, I've done all my homework, it won't hurt to be lazy just this once~

This-- this is frustrating. I can't help wanting to be out there fighting and maybe helping that way, but judging by the current state of things, I'm probably more useful here in the hospital.

The good news, of course, is that like everyone else, I seem to have gotten my powers back.
I suppose it's good practice, but... well. I'd probably better go see if there's anyone else coming in.

[[Is it all right to have Hotaru helping out at the hospital? :D;;]]

She's... gone.

I've waited, but... It's been a week and no signs of her returning. She's just. Gone.

And-- and Minako too--

Maybe you could say I should have been expecting this, but I haven't, and. It was so unexpected--

... I want to go back

Happy Belated Valentine's Day, everyone.

[[Yay, I'm back early! XD If... anyone's wondering. ^^; Really, it's more of me not having that one thing-- what's it called? Oh, right, willpower~]]

Ha, looks like this thing is going around again~

1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your journal with the answers to the questions.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

( Questions from Fye )

Yarn is so much fun~ Why didn't anyone ever tell me how fun yarn is~? It's all colorful and stringy and rolly and batting it around is so fun~ ^_^ So are those old boxes over there, too. And I'd never realized before how comfy it is to nap in those sunny spots in the afternoon.

I've been obsessively cleaning myself and hacked up several hairballs, though. And been trying very hard to resist the urge to pounce on any small rodents I see running around. ._.; It'd be rather nice to go back to being human sometime soon.

... So. Er. This is new. And kind of unexpected. I seem to've turned into a gray cat-- kitten-- outwardly, but it's still me in here.

I have this unbelievable urge to clean myself now, is this normal? Actually, scratch that, never mind. Nothing's ever normal in Avoria.

Not to mention how much I want some milk right now. I don't even like milk, normally usually. Although, I wonder if I could find some fish... hm. There's an idea. Some nice juicy fish, fresh and cold and sweet and-- WHAT.

Chibiusa-chan is back~! ♥ ... I was lon-- worried.

Well, it's a bit late for it now, but Happy Belated New Year, everyone~

As interesting as the recent King and Queen event was, I thought it'd be best if I just lay low for a while, after seeing the "rules" ^^;;;

That and I didn't really feel like going through the trouble of writing Hundinnuigurumicakepissoireineiigezwillingenakadashite all the time.

[[DDDX; I missed Hotaru's birthday OMG DDDDDX
... Er. Anyway. First strike semi-ishly-kindasorta-legible, second one more so~]]

So, my 27th entry comes on the 27th of December-- And no, I didn't engineer this, it just happened.

Thanks for your presents, everyone, and I hope your Christmas was as good as mine! ^_^

Minako-chan is here now; she got here just in time for Christmas~

Hmm, I did end up entering the Tournament... I mean, it's not like there's much of a downside to entering, if I understood the rules correctly. My opponent is a... Shaoran Li?

[[YES I AM STILL USING THE ICON. I LIKE IT OKAY. XD;;;]]

Mm, normally I'm not such a sweets-obsessed person, but there's just something special about homemade cookies~

...Yes, even at 12 AM while I realize I haven't written for over a week now. ^^;;;

That Year Tournament looks interesting~ I'm not sure if I'll enter, though... Still, it'd be a good experience, I guess. Even if I don't enter, I'll definitely watch~ And the whole thing about NION Avoria is pretty fascinating as well.

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat~ ... and the coursework is increasing a bit, too ^^;;;

Three days ago Makoto had her birthday... And I really miss everyone.

I'm just a bit tired, I guess. ^^ It's getting pretty cold outside... so cold, actually, that there's still quite a bit of snow on the ground~ It's nice to look at, though.

School is... school~ Apparently midterm exams are coming up soon, but I'm not sure if they're before or after New Year's Day. Wonder if Avoria's going to do some sort of strange event for Christmas... I mean, at Halloween there was the masque and everyone turned into their costumes. They had a party for the Day of Play, but nothing too weird there. Er. Well. On the magnitude of supernatural phenomena, that is. I don't know, can you count the Hitachiin twins as supernatural phenomena? If anything happens, I just hope it's something good~

One more thing-- Minase-san? I was exploring in town and I found a music store. I could swear it wasn't there two days before I looked, it just seems to have popped up out of nowhere. Though, honestly, it wouldn't be that surprising if it did. Anyway, it's called Consonare Music~

Looks like Avoria has once again become dangerously unstable ^^;;; It's pretty shocking to wake up in the morning and find someone you've never seen before in your dorm room. It's an entirely different thing altogether to find out that that's actually your best friend... or their personality, at least, trapped in someone else's body~

I imagine it's something else still, to wake up and find yourself in someone else's body, but for now I'll just be glad that I'm not affected this time~

But the meals today changed significantly. They served some sort of mystery meat (who knows what it is~?) and mushy peas, in contrast to their usual variety of foods. And that mystery-meat-and-peas combination seems to be the only food any of the stores here seem to have. ...I miss the soba already.

Nice to see that the weather's back to some semblance of being normal or as normal as things ever get in Avoria. I do rather like having seasons, after all, even if the winter's low humidity does make my violin a bit temperamental.

Christmas in about a month~ I'm hoping for snow. Oh yes, definitely hoping for snow.

Ah, Shin-kun, are you all right? How are your knees? Don't forget to change the bandaids and put on ointment so that the germs will stay away, okay? ^^

[[*issobackithurts~! :D except not really! ...the hurting part I mean~* ♥
Might still be a bit scarce for a little while, but I'm trying to make it work~
So yeah. My characters' excuse for the past few days of their absence-- Shin got lost in the forest. Look for the extended edition coming to a Shin's journal near you~ ^_~]]

... You know, when I was hoping for a change in the weather, I didn't mean a sudden upswing in temperature. Oh well... hopefully it doesn't last too long; the rain lasted about a week, didn't it?

We didn't really accomplish all that much in school today as a result of the heat... I suppose I'm glad for that, it's harder to concentrate in this weather.

Hmm... look on the bright side (no pun intended~), at least the sun's shining again~? ^^;

It's been raining nonstop for several days now. Must be another Avoria thing; previously there was no end to the sunshine-y bright days.

To be honest, I'm getting rather tired of it. I'd rather have a little variation day-to-day.

So um! I noticed a lot of kids jumping in puddles the other day~ ^^;

And. Yeah, I turned into a fairy for Halloween... it wasn't so bad, actually. Just a little odd with the wings... it was nice to be able to fly, though.

Schoolwork is letting up a little... and now I'd better go knock on wood~ ^_~

[[My memory must be going or something, I could swear I posted as Hotaru after the Halloween event, but, apparently not ^^;;]]
