A wide open space designed as a place to test and build the physical prowess of the Midnight Pack. Off to one side is the weights sections with a variety of machines, while the other side is open for a wide variety of activities.

A small and cozy room filled with books, comfortable sofas and pillows. It also has a great view of Pine Forest, and even contains a fireplace, candles, and a variety of other miscellaneous things. There's also a speaker system built into it.

The stone kitchen is large in its own right, having two deep freezers and two regular coolers, it is normally stocked and packed full of meats, vegetables, and other goodies. Due the packs obvious appetite, it must be halfway stocked if not mostly or fully

A dining room built more like a wide restaurant. It has fragrant trees planted around it and of course is decorated beautifully

The rustic aesthetic of the Midnight Mansion can date back to the 17th century. The Foyer is the entrance of the mansion, and is used for a variety of things such as events abd announcements thanks to its massive size.

Ranging from the very start of the gates to the front lawn of the mansion, the Yards practically encompass the entire outside of the mansion itself. Having a large indoor pool separate from the mansion and an outdoor court converted for whatever sports, the Yards are tending to with care.

//Lol, experimenting with bouncing back and further between scenes here, hope it don't confuse you// "I can sense a couple Sensitives out here. Surprised there aren't more, but I can hold some comfort that there are a few at least." Takamo said to Toshiro as the two walked together. Exhaling that breath of annoyance, Toshiro responded quietly, "Yeah, I know, I also know that it's supposed to be an off day for you. Not a chance to scout out recruits." Everyone at this graduation seemed... Normal. Teru and Kyouka were off in their graduate attire, everyone else wore simple dresses or regular clothes and Toshiro? In an expensive ass business suit. Black and sleek, deep red and dark orange striped tie, polished black shoes... Yeah, he really wanted to not stand out from the crowd. But enough bitching about him, on to the event! Family members of the graduates were being seated in one section of the stands with Toshiro and Takamo taking their places toward the front. Meanwhile, Kyouka and Teru had already gotten their gown and caps on and started toward the group of other graduates who were ready. The former was busy with trying to get something untied to- Oh. The gown was a little looser now, showcasing less of the blondes rather large cleavage and giving some leeway to not standing out too much. _ Teru grinned toward the taller of the pair, "You know, if you'd quit snacking on candy and dairy you wouldn't have those things to carry around." Huffing, Kyouka replied, "You know, you'd grow a couple more inches taller if you'd let your balls drop." _ "And so it is indeed my day off. I'm actually glad to have it to see my niece and youngest brother graduate," Takamo said quietly placing what looked like a tobacco pouch in his mouth, he eases into his seat and bites down on it oddly enough, "But Toshiro I also gotta look out for any kind of recruit." _ Teru felt a little choked up of embarrassment but was able to step back and assess his attitude. Shit, what would Toshiro say? Shrugging like he didn't care, Teru said, "Hey, I'm proud of my acorns, unlike you who looks like every guy on the football team runs a train on." _ "Is it really that important?" Toshiro asked his older brother. He understood that yes, it was important to know that others who potentially could be sensitive to magic; let them be potential Knights or Magic-Gals or, "Sorceresses," As he called them, wasn't it better off to let them be and live normal lives? While Toshiro knew it that his family were far from normal he still didn't understand why Takamo had an interest in such things. Without knowledge of his little brother, the eldest had already placed the pair in a bubble of magic invisible to the Human eye. This would otherwise prevent outsiders from hearing their conversation but also made it look like they were just waiting for the ceremony to start. Takamo looked up at the sky and couldn't help but give a softer response, knowing Toshiro's blunt and to the point mindset, "Yes... It is important. It's not about trying to recruit anyone let alone getting know like minded people. Think of it this way: we're in a modern world where everything is uncertain, war, civil strife, politics, religious battles, those of us who are gifted have not only that to worry about but also the evils of the paranormal. Demons, daemons, otherworldly entities, the undead, monsters and what have you. But those aren't the biggest threats..." _ "Take it back, you little shit!!" Kyouka said with gritted teeth as she had Teru in a ravenous chokehold and was pounding on his head. "Oh boy, there she goes beating up another boy..." One girl said exhausted. Another responded, "C'mon, it's not the first time, didn't she beat up your ex? Coulda swore the guy was stalking you, yeah?" "Yeah, true that, but it's graduation day, she could go one day without being pissed off .." _ "Magic is not so much dying but being blanketed over, Toshiro. Not quick or even the theory that it'll just stop all at once one day. As time goes on, magic wanes in bloodlines and even in the spirit, save for bloodlines like ours which is still very strong. " Takamo had continued in a solemn tone, spitting out some contents onto the grass. Toshiro looked perplexed. To hear his brother say something as negative as that was... Disheartening? Toshiro then looked up at the sky as well asking, "So how's it "dying" or being suppressed? And what does any of this have to do with today?" "Well... Today is tied into magic because I think Teru is sterile. Of magic I mean! But what I mean is that the body, mind, and soul have become diluted overtime by the material world. We have to keep our powers concealed most of the time, we can't use it openly in public; can't showcase it, people would get scared, governments would get involved and it can become twisted. But with how much technology there is and how much you have to work, schooling, and online media too, some people who had used magic really lose touch with it after some time because of how much they go without using it. It goes dormant or in a few rare cases, it just vanished." Toshiro was trying to gauge the words of Takamo, weighing them and adjusting everything into specified order. He had no clue someone could lose their powers like that, and he replied, "And with the rising number of monsters popping up, I can see why it's scary." "Yeah. Slowly but surely I'm seeing magic altogether starting to just fade, I mean sure we have thousands of not a few million Knights and Sorceresses, but give it a hundred years? That number gets cut in half. Look I know it doesn't matter to you, but all I ask is you constantly practice it, yes keep your powers a secret from the general public but continue to train with it." Toshiro was silent for a solid minute before conclusively answering with, "Yeah... Alright, you got it, man. But uhh... God what the hell is taking them so long? You figured-" "Welcome everyone to the graduation ceremony for the Class of 2026!" A woman announced over a microphone on a large wooden stage ahead.

Will get images up and going soon, should've had it sooner but have been with family. If y'all wanna go ahead and make your characters be my guest. I'm also allowing room for an additional coven and wolf pack, so if you wanna make one, please get with me first so we can establish where they will be placed and all, lore, etc.. Only gonna have a two character limit for myself, however if need be I can potentially make one or two additional to that roster, just not wanting to flood a club with a shit ton of player characters from my end.

Name: Nasago Kabiki Age: 113 Species: Vampire Sex/Gender: Male Sexuality: Straight Role (Vampire or Thrall): Vampire Rank: Corpse-Sower, Grave Warden Master (For thralls only, list which vampire is your master): N/A Personality: His appearance describes it all: nonchalant, uncaring about what happens mostly, and thinks almost everything including life, Werewolves, Humans, and Vampires are a drag. The guy has insomnia and unfortunately has to take special medication for it, however it only works half of the time as his magic tends to keep him awake. Although he has a tired appearance, Kabiki is well approachable and can talk about any subject. He is extremely smart given his role as Blackthorne's head doctor, and is just as physically powerful just as his magic is. He is also witty, though his voice sounds very uncharacteristic and devoid of emotion. Kabiki was personally trained in a variety of fighting styles and magic arts by Ito Toshiro and had developed hos own style of fighting, paying respect to the Butler but also following a life debt he owes the Vampire. Appearance Details: Kabiki is defined by his casual look of a gray shirt, or any loose shirt fir that matter, baggy pants held on by a belt, and of course a white lab coat. He looks drained of energy but is... While not quite the opposite, he just looks tired. There are shades of dark under his eyes, he also always wears reading glasses that is lazily placed on his nose, or a pair of sunglasses... Inside a building. Other Details (optional): Kabiki uses a powerful blood magic, manipulating blood and capable of summoning weapons through the magic as well. He also uses fire magic as a primary, however is well versed in using smoke magic which is when be uses that to his advantage. Kabiki is all about the manipulation of the mind, illusions and using psychedelic effects from his smoke, his uses of these three elements are extremely extensive and is unmatched in his unorthodox methods of fighting. While Kabiki is a ranged fighter no doubt, he can also go hand to hand but prefers poisoning a foe than simply beating them to death. He is an extremely quick thinker, always five steps ahead of everyone usually.

Werewolf Information Werewolves live and act based on more instinct and tradition. In the wolf pack there is a strict order of leadership. This starts with either The Alpha or Luna being the leader (Alpha is for males, Luna for females), followed by the Beta which acts as a second leader, the doctor who acts as a Gamma and would occasionally overrule the leader in medical matters, then the Delta who is in charge of the warriors, followed by the queens (pregnant females), and then omegas. When a werewolf transforms into a wolf form, typically the wolf form is larger than that of their human for. So if a werewolf transforms while wearing their clothes it typically would tear their clothes. So it is recommended they remove their clothing before transforming. There are a variety of wolves by breed, however there are two distinct transformations where one is more natural and happens fluidly, whilst the other is painful and is rather forced. Lycans are a type of werewolf that tend to be more violent and feral, and in many cases a Lycan has to be trained vigorously or otherwise be put down for being too much a liability/threat to the pack. Werewolves tend to mark their territory using urine, this helps outside packs and Omegas identify borders, but in many cases they use blood or carving laced with wolfsbane extract as it's extremely potent in smell to wolves. Once a month there pack goes into a mating season. During this period hormones and pheromones' run high, it increases the sex drive of werewolves dramatically. This heightened sex drive either dies down after mating or at the end of the period. If a pack member wishes not to mate they can help resist the urge to mate and temporarily calm themselves through masturbation, or they can see the Gamma for something that helps with resistance. Male werewolves can not become pregnant (should not need to say this but this is a common thing I have seen.). Due to their nature of commonly transforming, nudity is not as frowned upon as it is in human society. In fact it is primarily viewed as just natural. This does not mean that werewolves never wear clothes, it's simply that nudity is not alien/foreign to them. When an alpha takes a mate that mate gains the title of Luna (if female). Same with the Luna, if a Luna took on a male mate that mate is called Alpha, in more "formal" cases the main leader is referred to as a Maius while the mate is a Luminare. Protecting Queens and their children is one of the most important rules of the warriors of the pack. If an Alpha or Luna dies the Beta becomes the new Alpha or Luna, whether it is permanent or temporary, should they die as well the Gamma, and then the Delta would step in. Should a (ex.) Warrior become an Alpha/Luna by becoming a mate, it is merely honorary and when that primary leader dies or steps down that same mate loses that title. While silver won't harm a werewolf normally, if consumed or if it enters the body by some means it can be lethal. __________________ Vampire Information Vampires are mostly nocturnal as direct sunlight can harm them. And if they remain in sunlight for too long they could die. It can start with blisters which then leads to combustion, silver can have this effect on them too. They can however bundle up clothes and cover their body to go out during the day. Vampires have the ability to charm humans using a magic spell. Charming is temporary and can only last an hour at most. Vampires can transform into a bat for faster traveling, however there are cases of vampires turning into a small swarm of locusts or even a crow, this shapeshifting ability is limited to the ability of the vampire; however they can only transform into that one avian-like creature. Vampires are visible in mirrors even of silver, however if they are near mirrors with iron their powers are dampened. Silver has a toxic reaction to vampires, touching it burns them. Vampires can touch garlic and even eat it, however if around even uncut garlic their senses are blocked from smell to hearing. Vampires need to feed daily, they can not feed off of each other, but they can feed off of animals and humans. A human can become a thrall or life long servant of a vampire either through curse or contract. A vampire does not die unless through an outside force or by not being able to feed, however, if starved a vampire will turn ravenous and will consume any living or even dead creature it finds, even other vampires.

Alpha/Luna (Leader/Maius): The Alpha and Luna is the leader of the Midnight Pack, making important decisions to ensure the safety and progress of the pack. They can take council from the Beta and Delta, or even their mates for strategy in the pack itself and against foes. But in the end it is the leaders fin decision that truly matters. If the leader is Male, they are Alpha, whereas a Female is Luna. If the leader is in a same sex relationship, they are referred to as an Alpha or Luna Maius. (ie. Alpha "Jake" Maius or Luna "Dana" Maius) Alpha/Luna (Mate/Luminare): The mate of the Alpha/Luna is called a Luminare, as they hold the titles of the head roles, they are primarily the mate of the leaders. An Alpha/Luna Luminare can give council and aid to their mate/other half, however they also help the tribe with a variety of responsibilities just as the Maius does as they represent the other half of them as well, so a Luminare is carefully picked by the Alpha/Luna. A Luminare DOES NOT become Maius/head of the pack if the lead Alpha/Luna die or step down, instead being reverted to their original roles. (ie. Alpha "John" Luminare or Luna "Hannah" Luminare) Beta: Second in Command of the pack, the Betas main role is council and advisor to the Alpha/Luna, even acting as an envoy in certain cases. The advisor can provide details and information from certain viewpoints to aid in the decision-making of the leader, and should the Alpha/Luna be away, fall ill or die, the Beta can take their place for a time being. When there are multiple Betas, the one to take the leadership role of the Alpha/Luna is referred to as the Beta Major. When a Beta dies, the Alpha/Luna appoints a new one. The main/head Beta is called a Major, while all others are Minor. Gamma: Considered as the third in command and as the medical expert or doctor, it is the Gamma who tends to the wounded and ill. They are capable of growing herbs and unique flora, while also making medicines and elixirs. The Gama is capable of communing with the dead, specifically the Midnight Ancestors, as well as being able to utilize premonitions and spiritual healing. Hey xan also be the final say in decisions regardkng .edical practice, capable of overriding the Alpha/Luna in this field. However communication with the Ancestors is only if the pack leader deemed it necessary. The Gamma is considered a last resort leader of the tribe should the Alphas/Lunas, Betas, and Deltas all be dead or unfit for leading, and will lead until a suitable Warrior or Delta can take the helm of the Midnight Pack. The head Gamma is called a Major, while the others and trainees are called Minor. Delta: Recognized as veteran warriors, they are granted authority to organize patrol routes, scouting and reconnaissance, and even give tactical aid when needed; war strategies and such. These are seasoned warriors and are far more skilled than most of the Warrior ranks. The head Delta is called a Major, while others are called Minor, however should there be multiple Majors the one to lead them all is called an Ultra; a rare rank not seen in many generations, many have been older Wolves who are considered best of the best and are hand picked by the Alpha/Luna. The head Delta reports only to the Alpha/Luna. The Major is picked by the Alpha/Luna to lead the forces. And oftentimes, these ranks are used in special operations. Ultra > Major > Minor Warriors: The common type of Wolf that is of fighting age to serve the pack properly. They are used in protecting the pack and utilized for a variety of tasks. Warriors are given no real ranks, but that doesn't mean a few individuals can't shine through as well. Omega: Either unfit to be aby if the roles including Warrior or not in standing. An Omega is generally an outsider taken in, an elder wolf of the pack, a Newblood, a disabled individual, or even a pup are essentially considered Omegas in that regard. Additional Terms: Queen: A female wolf that is either pregnant or is nursing their pups, once the young are weenie off the Queen goes back to their original role. Queens are heavily protected by the pack. Pup: A child of the pack, they are referred as Pups until they are old enough to mate, in which they are trained for combat and hunting until they are ready to be an Omega or take on an official role as Warrior. Scion: A direct descendant of the original werewolves, or close enough, these aren't held in ranks but can w used to reference others that have more Wolfblood than other pack members and can be traced back as such. Oftentimes they are Scions are rare, and are widely sought out to help breed to bring more powerful wolves to the pack. Disclaimer: If you desire for your character to be a Scion, please hit me up first. Not a whole lot of characters will have that chance.

Below is the terms/examples for the roles that currently exist. Night Master/Mistress is the head of the Blackthorne Family, lord of all vampires in the clan and taught to be the leader for the future of the clan. Under normal circumstances, only those with the Blackthorne Blood can truly be a Night Master/Mistress, however should they be defeated or die, the Butler takes over for a temporary time until another of the bloodline is found, for better or worse. The lord vampire is overall the strongest if not oldest and most skilled in combat and knowledge, however this has proven to be false before on rare occasions. Nightstalker, a secondary leader acting as overall commander of the other ranks. The Nightstalker can be older or younger than the Night Master/Mistress, however they must have great knowledge of warfare, magic, and of the enemy. There can only ever be two of these ranks, as they are extremely important and given to handpicked individuals, referred to as a Prime and Second. Mistwalker ranks are generalized as moderately powerful, above the "common" vampire, the Mistwalker acts as spies, assassins, and considered elite soldier's above others. While anyone could potentially obtain this rank, they would have to prove their loyalties, skills and strengths to become such. Corpse-Sowers are the doctors of the Family, having both basic, advanced, and magical knowledge in the medical fields for their Vampires and Humans. They have magic primarily based around medical care, as well as having the requirements to be actual doctors. The head of the Corpse-Sowers is called a Doctor or rather the Grave Warden in professional terms in the Vampiric world, while all others are Nurses or Assistants. Blooded are the generalized soldiers of the Blackthorne Estate, the common vampire, both strong and weak, are used for any application in combat; between assault to defense, scouting and recovery operations, Vampires that follow understand the role take orders from the Nightstalker, Night Master/Mistress, and oddly enough the Butler. New Bloods or Fledgelings are the newly turned Vampires or Strays brought into the Blackthorne Estate. They vary in power, as New Bloods are new born Vampires with weak powers, and Strays are often a wildcard. That being said they are weaker than seasoned/older vampires for obvious reasons. Thralls are the life slaves or servant's of any given Vampire, as they are bonded so too do they receive the gift of endless aging. Thralls are varied as well, as normally the Blackthorne Family take Humans indebted to them or those willingly, however it's not uncommon to see a Thrall be bonded against their will. They can be personal servant's, blood bags, and whatever else a Vampire might want. In some cases few Thrall's have become personal guards for their master's, and as such, they can freely ignore psychological/psychic commands from other vampires depending on bond and how powerful the bond between master and such are. _____________ The Butler, while not in charge of combat, is an advisor and council to the Blackthorne Family as a whole. They can give commands of defense to the Vampiric and common ranks, but can even send then on their own behalf of it is truly important. The Butler, or Head of the Estate, makes sure operations,preparations, and chores are done on the grounds on the regular, truly never a break in sight. There can be several Butlers, but only the "Head" can call the shots, and is entrusted by the Night Master/Mistress Maid is a common worker, normally doing chores and delivering items such as food or clothes to their masters. They are not Thralls, and are to be treated in respect. They follow direct orders from only the Butler and the head of the Family, however they tend to also do favors for everyone else as well if they have the time. Not only are they not to be fed on, but any Maid (even of they are Human or Vampire) abused by any Vampiric ranks will answer to the Butler and the Night Master/Mistress, punishment will follow swiftly and just. Detective and Guards are two main bodies of security, let them be Human or Vampires, or any undead for that matter. While the Detective is only given to one individual, they are responsible for seeking out intruders, murders, and anything that could harm or be illegal toward the Family. Guards are just that, a main body of defense for keeping out the riffraff and undesirables, they have useful tools to help then do the job, but other than that keep patrols and a watchful eye over the Estate.

Will be getting more done tomorrow

(Before I get back to work) Yes, this is a revamp of the club itself .

Here is a general rule that is obvious: 1. We do not control other's characters, meta game, or commit asspull moves. You're not a Mary/Gary Sue, you don't dodge every single attack let alone know what your opponent is about to do instantly. I want to make this fun, however it's no fun when peeps are godmodding. When there's a huge gap in skill obviously it'll be a lopsided fight. Don't go crazy.. 2. There can only be up to four characters a player controls, one for each faction (2 for Midnight, 2 for Blackthorne) as to not overwhelm the club with too many characters. Recommend just sticking with two characters overall. 3. In accordance with the terms of EcchiDreams, all character sexualized MUST BE 18+ of age! It's fine to have children/minors in a normal setting, however we under no circumstance allow for wiggle room for sexualizing minors. Continuing with Vampire Rules 1. Vampires in Pine Heath have a limited age up to 2,000 years. If you want an explanation, send me a text as I am still working on lore for this. If you have a Vampires at max age, of course they will continue to go up in years. 2. Vampires are weak to obviously sunlight, holy water (yes Jesus Juice exists), silver, holy magics and iron can weaken their magic. No, Vampires can be seen in mirrors that are even lined with silver, and they can eat garlic, however garlic actually blocks their sense of smell and too much can cause them to break out in hives... 3. Vampires do get stronger with age as well as abilities, however Werewolves can also get stronger with age as well, hence why Vamps have magic to counter their furry hounds on steroids. A Vampire's magic does not have to be strong, it can be something they are still learning, however the magic itself does not grow stronger based on age, that stuff takes training and maintaining. 4. Vampires can only have up to three types of magic: Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Ice, Lightning, Blood, Dark, Enchantment, Rune, and Illusion. There are also subclasses of these magics that are also limited in the same regard, so if I know fire and smoke magic, that takes up 2 out of 3 slots. The subclasses are: Smoke, Mud, Wood, Plant, Sound, Bone, Ash. In time more variants may be added. 5. Vampires can get Vampires pregnant, however Human's can't unless certain conditions are met such as if the Human becomes a Thrall or a Human bears a Fertility Mark by their master. __________ Now for the Werewolves: 1. Werewolves can live up to 150 to 200 years. It's a stretch, however if a wolf somehow survives the years they can die at 150 (or more) of old age. While wolves do quickly mature, they are slow at aging once hitting that adult status, however because of how frequently Werewolves have died it's hard to keep living that long. 2. Werewolves don't possess magic, instead they have supernatural physique which means they are naturally superior to vampires physically, even by senses. Werewolves cannot utilize magic, their supernatural power counters whatever allows them to do so. 3. Werewolves can touch silver, however if they are cut with silver it can be deadly to them. They are not impervious to illness or disease, meaning that even though they have the power of a freight train their immune system don't. 4. Werewolves can only be between (in transformation) 5ft to 12ft in height. Don't need no 20 foot monsters roaming around.

Now that I'm back to work and the hangover is semi-settled, I'll be getting posts up and will be looking to get more active now. As good as the money is, I'm grateful the overtime is done at my job site. But I'll get ya hwhat, I feel beat worse than a porn addicts penis.

Fuuuck I got a lotta work to do

Pretty where lore drops for the club happen. Anything from the Blackthorne Coven to the Midnight Pack, NPCs, important characters and locations, etc. etc. Players can also come here to drop ideas and suggestions for the club as well, ask questions and thereof.

Where you come to talk about just about anything. Please be considerate of other's opinions.

Got a topic up. It'll be under "Blossoming Flowers." If I need to edit anything or add more to the initial post, lemme know.

Graduation day... Joy... The car ride to the highschool was one of complete chatter for most. Between a mix of boys and girls it was safe to say there was excitement in the air, energies excited, which further led of jokes and happier attitudes. It was a pretty good day in the city too with cool to slowly colder weather but the cloudless sunny skies made for a warmer feel. Of course, for one individual, it was already annoying to all hell... Toshiro East in the passenger seat of a small fucking Hummer Limousine of all things, and for what reason?! Kyouka and Teru's graduation. The eldest brother of the family, Takamo, was a wealthy enough man to easily afford the fancy black and silver trimmed vehicle for a good day or two, and for such a simple occasion. However it was the two aforementioned individuals he was going out of his way to celebrate. With Teru and Kyouka they were graduating with honors and had their foot in the door to get into any college program, between sports, class rep programs, fundraising, and a variety of other shenanigans a high schooler would need for jobs that paid well. And unfortunately, Toshiro had to be in the middle of it, he didn't like the attention drawn to him and while the man could've stayed home he chose not to. It'd be a dick move to miss out of his youngest brother's and family friend's graduation. He sighed, tightening and loosening the tie to his black suit with a single hand out of both boredom and annoyance. Finally as they were just a mile out from the school, he gave a side glancing glare at Takamo who was also wearing a suit. The eldest returned a side glance from the driver's seat, his smirk turning into a mischievous smile. "You really had to go all out... Why on God's green Earth you did this I'll never understand..." Toshiro mutters leaning his head against his fist. Takamo responded on a chipper tone, "C'mon! Brighten up there, sport! After all you shouldn't have made that bet-" "From ten years ago, Takamo?! Dude, you hold onto bets and grudges like an old lady with a coupon." Toshiro interjected as the vehicle now entered the confines of the bustling school parking lot. And already, Toshiro could feel the attention the group was gaining from other kids and adults that were headed toward the main yard. His third eye definitely didn't help matters given that he could read people, which blows. Sighing, once the vehicle was parked off to the side in the grass, he opened the passenger door with little patience. The man's always been like this, with Toshiro being more no-nonsense and Takamo being a smooth and cheeky dick waffle he was, older of the two always made things more interesting. By interesting, he always seemed to show off or invest in luxury goods, such as the limousine and the suits. As the duo exited the vehicle, they opened a door on either side with eleven individuals stepping out in caps and gowns, two of which was Teru who seemed relaxed as ever and Kyouka who was fired up... God please let it be a normal day. Toshiro closed the door after the last Kyouka's friends exited the vehicle and turned to Teru to see the young man already getting impatient. The eldest brother jerked his head signalling for him to go, and of course, off he went quickly with his friends. "Lock the car?" Toshiro asked Takamo as the rest of the group went onto join the rest of the graduates. Takamo scoffed sarcastically saying, "Me? Lock the car? In this neighborhood?! Why, I never! Yes, I locked it." And like that, the pair would start making their way toward the crowd of people and chairs...
