Here is the sign-up: oceanview-royal-academy-sign-and-disscusion-open-t35812.html

The carriage pulled up to the castle. The driver put the break on and opened the door for the two occupants inside. Out stepped a Onyx and Sean. "Well, here we're Onyx," Sean said. "It's bigger than I imagined," Onyx replied. They went up the steps and were greeted by the head mistress at the door. "Hello," the head mistress said. "You must be Sean and Onyx. I'm Mary Lelan, the head mistress." "It is nice to meet you, miss Lelan," Sean and Onyx said. Onyx curtsied and elbowed Sean to bow. He did grudgingly. The head mistress had a maid show Sean and Onyx to their rooms. Sean was shown to his room first, then Onyx was shown to hers. "Wow, this room is beautiful," she said. "Yes, milady," the maid replied. "The head mistress asked me to tell you dinner is a 7:00 PM, breakfast is at 8:30 AM, and lunch is a noon. Oh, and if your ladyship wishes, you can go to the stable or for a walk on the beach while the others arrive." "Thank you," Onyx replied. "I think I might."

Adom walked up and saw the castle for the first time. The carrige that his father had sent him in had beed a bit uncomfortable, but now he felt better. The clothes he had brought were in a pack carried by his driver. Good thing he could speak several other languages, or he'd be lost.

Camille (pronounced Ca-meal)) sat there, as her maid, Lina, ran a brush threw her hair. She sighed, she did not want to go to this boarding school, but daddy insisted. His only heir to the throne had to be ‘fit’ to run a country, after all. The butterflies in Camille’s stomach began to fly faster, though there really was no reason to be nervous. She was ready to go, her gowns packed, already on their way. “Miss,” approached Lina, “Your hair is free of tangles,” she said sweetly.

“You may dress me,” said Camille bearly above a whisper, meaning for Lina to take off her nightgown and into her corset and gown (the one in her picture)
“Yes, miss” replied Lina. She slipped the night gown above Camille’s head, and applied the corset, almost making it too tight for Camille to breathe, in hopes that she’d faint, since fainting was very feminine, like being pale. She then slipped the big and bulky, red, silky fabric over top of the corset.
“You look gorgeous, miss” said Lina. Camille clasped her hands behind her back, admiring herself in the mirror.
“Thank you. I expect breakfast is ready now?” she asked. Lina nodded. Camille walked downstairs and into the dining room to see breakfast was, indeed, ready. She sat down and picked at her oatmeal, which was cold. It must have been sitting for a while. Soon enough, a car horn honked, signaling it was time for Camille to go, on her way to school.

OoC||There ARE cars in the Victorian era...

OOC- there are? okay.

Adom walked to the castle, got the intro, and was shown to his room. He surveyed the room, then frowned. He'd rather be at home, but father had insisted he come here to learn to be proper. Proper, ugh.

Three Days Ago:

Tazia stood with her hands clenched by her sides. She knew she'd been outspoken when she sat in with her father's meeting with his council but he wouldn't send her away....would he? She was still fuming over the repremid she'd received from him despite the fact that her points were valid. "These are not matters for an impudent girl" he'd said. Even though they would be here matters solely as the only air to the throne. Just then a servant approached with a note with her father's seal on it.

Daughter,

Your manner is far to abrasive and upsetting for me to deal with. At this rate you will never find a proper husband to rule my kingdom when I'm gone. With this in mind I will send you to Oceanview Academy. Perhaps they can correct my wrongs in you and you will find a suitable husband there. You leave tomorrow.

Best Wishes,

Father

With angry tears in her eyes she stormed off to the stables.

Present:

As Tazia read the letter from her father again she frowned. Her black gloved fingers folded the letter before tucking it into the bodice of her gown. Like many young women from her country she favored a slightly lower neckline, at the dismay of her father and his council. The gown she wore upon her arrival to the school was a deep burgandy with black lace trimmings that complemented her complexion. As she looked up at her new home a breeze blow, shifting the dark curls that were allowed to hang free from the bun at the nape of her neck. Tazia ignored the help offered her out of the carriage and went up to explore on her own. She looked among the other students for a friendly face as she took a spot by a fountain to gather herself. "I can do this."

"Wow, this place is gorgeous! Right, Mikomi?" Ai asked, looking at the castle. Ai had never been one to stay in one place, but this was almost surreal enough to make her want to stay here for a long while.
"Whatever." Mikomi said. She acted like she didn't care, but inside, she was nostalgic. Her cold exterior was just because of her secret wishes and wants. "I only wonder if my future husband will attend this school." Speaking assorted languages was something the family had taken great care in.
"You have no sense of happiness, do you, sister dear?" Ai said, truely wondering if her third piece was happy. Just then, Kigan popped out of nowhere, like always.
"Are you two okay?" He asked just after Ai yellped slightly at his actions.
"Dear brother, I thought that I had told you to make a sound when you approach me. You gave me a freaking heart attack!" Ai said, coming out of her lady-like mode for a minute of Ai, the crazy cosplay girl.
"My apologies, sister deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeearrrrrrrrrrrrrr." Kigan joked with Ai as they laughed while Mikomi stayed silent, trying to be a lady. They all turned toward the building.
"Let us go, my dear brother," Ai said, turning her head toward Kigan, "And my dear sister." turning toward Mikomi as she said this. They all walked to the palace, where they would now be finishing school.

Camille arrived, after hours of traveling, to see a giant looking, castle-like building. It was, indeed, intimidating to look at, bigger than her caslte back at home, though, probably, not by much. As the car pulled over, she waited for her driver to walk around, and open her door. He held out his hand, which her gloved hand took a hold of as she stepped out, her brand-new red heels coming in contact with the ground. Her free hand held up her dress, so it wouldn't drag. She walked around, ignoring the front doors, where all of the commotion was, and walked around the courtyard, to see another girl, around her age, by a fountain. She was in a burgandy dress, with black lace trim. Camille walked up to the fountain, placing her hands on the edge, focusing on the falling water, "I always look to the water to calm my nerves," she said, not really to anyone in particular, but considering there was only one girl there, mostly to her.

Lulu was waiting for awhile to come to this school. She was excitied because her father said that Charles should be coming here too. That's the only reason she agreed to come to the school. She was fidgeting with the frills on her dress, when the driver of her car said that they were pulliing into the driveway of the school. Lulu had excitedly looked out the window, and stared at the school. It was much bigger than she would have anticapated. She saw a few more carriages before hers and smiled. Maybe she could make friends. But before that, she would have to find Charles. As the car stopped she jumped out, and she almost ran into a tall figure. The figure turned to look at her. it was Charles.
"Ch-charles??" She stuttered. The boy smiled, and scooped his little sister up in his arms. "It's me Charles. I've missed you." He said. He put her down, and she hooked her amr onto his. The headmistress agve them the intro and maids showed them to their rooms. Charles room was across the hall from hers and she fell asleep on her bed. Charles on the other hand, went out into the lobby and took a book from a shelve. He began to read quietly.

"Me, too. Sorry to sneak up on you, my dear brother and sister disappeared inside." Mikomi said from the other side of the fountain, crying into it's gentle blue.

*MEANWHILE*

"Brother, which dress should I wear tonight? I can't wear the blue one I'm wearing now." Ai asked. She really wanted to stand out considering her boyfriend had just moved to another country, and she was sad.
"Sister, why do you ask? You know I'll say the blue silk gown you love." Kigan was talking about the dress she had gotten over their most recent birthday. "I would, however, hope to walk you and our sister down to dinner tonight."
"That sounds most excelent." Ai smiled as she disappeared into her bedroom to put on her favorite dress.

Tazia finally made her way up to the rooms. She looked out of her window pleased to see that it overlooked a deep blue lake nearby the school. Her grey eyes softend and she made a mental note to venture out there before the end of the day. She smiled softly with a confident edge. She wouldn't change while she was here but she would make the best of it and learn what she could. Turning to the mirror she made sure she was fit for dinner before heading down to the lobby. A small gasp of delight escaped her lips as she took note of the poetry books. She brushed reverant fingertips along their spines now lost in her own world.

Camille jumped as another voice was heard, and she felt a new presance upon her. She wanted to curse her off, for scaring the living wits out of her, but then again, she was here to improve herself. And one of her tutor's number one rules was to never admit to beging scared or angry. She looked at the girl, who was quite beautiful. Camille looked around, she felt odd, as there was no announcer to announce her name and status, so she had to take matters into her own hands, "I am Camille Felicity Elizabeth Molly Whitley, Princess of England," she said, giving her full name and title.



OoC||Last post for the night! Gotta go!

((OOC: Just so everyone knows, I will not be posting tomorrow.))

Onyx left her room and went down to the lobby. She saw a guy sitting and reading a book. She went over to the bookshelf and grabbed a book about fashion. Then she sat down in a chair near him and started to read.


Sean headed out to see the gardens. He saw three girls but the pool. "Hello," he said. "I'm Prince Sean of Ireland. You are?"

Camille let out a little giggle as she said her title, again, this time, she left out all the little names that werent important to her, "Camille Whitly, Princess of England, heir to the throne" she added this time, as she thought it was more important than the pointless names. The prince, Sean, was very handsome, maybe daddy will let him court me sometime, she thought, it was time for her to look for a man to be betrothed to. Her father was very overprotective, since she was their only child. She looked to the other girl, still waiting for her title.

OoC||Sorry! I couldnt resist posting again..

"I am Mikomi Kouchou Aki Kurohara, Second Princess and third heir to the throne of Japan, betrothed to a man who is supposed to go to this school." Mikomi said, still somewhat tearing up for the fact that she had accidently mentioned her siblings.
"Mikomi-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! Come up here and put on your dress for dinner!" Ai yelled from her window, looking down at her sister and another princess and prince. "I apologize for my impolite behavior."
"Ai-san, you really should have just come down here to get me. Where is brother?" Mikomi asked.
"Relax. Kigan's in his room putting on his birthday tuxedo. Now get up here and help me with this stupid button!" Ai yelled back to Mikomi.
"My apologies, Princess Camille Whitley, Prince Sean, but my sister, the first heir, has never been one for manners. My brother is probably going to give you more of a fright than I am, what wih his appearing out of nowhere. Ai hates us for scaring her like that. Farewell until tonight." Mikomi said before disappearing up the stairs, her thigh-length pink hair flowing behind her as the matching blue head disappeared behind the window.

(OOC- Good night!!!)
Charles noticed a girl looking at the books he had just picked. She was pretty cute. "I see you like poetry,"He said with a smile. He closed his book, and sat up straight. His manly instcicts would kick in soon, and she would probably fall under his magic skills. Then another girl sat near him him. "It must be my lucky day. I'm blessed with the presecne of 2 lovely ladies." He said smiling to himself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After her 2o minute nap, Lulu quickly got out of bed. She wanted to look especially nice for dinner. She was hoping to find someone to make friends with. She changed into a knee-length white frill dress. She had put white mid-shin high boots on and ran down the stairs. She ran into the lobby and almost tripped on her shoes. She made it down and ignored Charles, and went into the garden. It was beautiful and covered in red roses.

Tazia turned quickly finally aware of the other two in the room. She left her hand on the books as she dipped her head slightly. She noted the confident look on the boy's face and felt her own lips quirk into a small smirk for a moment. "I do enjoy poetry as something of a writer myself, any thought provoking literature will do though." She looked at the books again briefly before dropping her hand to her hip. She smiled at the other girl before continuing with one eyebrow raised. "Just whom do the two of us 'lovely ladies', have the pleasure of blessing?" She knew it was improper to ask the names of males first, but she'd never promised the school her best behaivor.

Charles smiled at her spunky personality. She would probably be more of a challenge than any of the peasant girls he had met when he was with his mother. She was very conifdent and he was pleased by this. "Both of you. If i may introduce myself, I'm Charles Clairoux. Prince of France. And you are, mademoiselle?" he asked, rising to his feet and holding his hand out.
(OOC- Lulu is all alone next post i'll make her do something exciting!! XD)

Ai was now dressed for dinner and wandered into the lobby while Kigan and Mikomi got ready for dinner. She notices a prince and a couple of princesses talking. She gracefully glided over to the fiction section and began reading a book about a girl and a dragon that fell in love. 'Oh, how origional.' She thought happily now that she knew this would be her next inspiration for the book she was currently writing, "Broken Dreams." Mikomi walked downstairs and, with the same grace as Ai, flowed over to her.
"What are you reading, sister dear?" Mikomi asked curiously.
"It's a book about a dragon and a human princess that fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after." Ai explained. "My new book is called 'Broken Dreams,' and I was thinking about making the dragon in the story become a human prince and marry the kitten pricess, who also becomes human."
"Sisters, come now. Let us go to dinner." Kigan said as his sisters turned to him. Ai put the book under her arm before she and her sister glided over to him, long dresses and hair flowing beautifully behind behind them as they walked to dinner.

The girl held her hand out to great Charles. "I am Tazia Garnecia princess of the Italy." She glanced skyward and added under her breath. "The very home of my gentle exile." Shrugging mentally Tazia held her gaze steady and allowed a soft smile to appear. "What brings the two of you to Oceanview?" She was curious as to the reasons the others here had choosen the academy she knew of its reputation but she personally wouldn't have chosen it for another few months.
