Holiday Glitch / Change of plans!

[taxonmods]

Hey Taxonians! After some late-night mumbling amongst ourselves, and after some amusing-as-all-get-out talk in group chat about glitch ideas, the original plan to do a 'past or future' glitch for the characters is being put on hold until the holiday busy-ness is past for people.
Instead, we're planning some gratuitous silliness for this holiday season: Taxon's going High School.

Starting December 15, characters will turn into silly high school versions of themselves. This does not necessarily mean 'what my character was actually like at age 14-18', it's more a 'stick them into an over-the-top American High School setting and role'. (As an example, Jason Blood's going to be turning into that gothy kid with the eyeliner and the bad poetry who tells people he worships Satan, rather than the earnest would-be knight he probably was as a young man.)

We encourage you to be a student but if you absolutely cannot think of a way that can go, faculty is an option too! Participation is optional, but we really hope everyone plays and has some wacky fun.

The glitch will go until the end of the month, returning everyone to normal in time to ring in the new year. At Taxon High, there's a holiday dance planned and attendance is mandatory...

AND NOW, DISCUSS YOUR PLANS TO INFLICT HIGH SCHOOL SHENANS ON YOUR CHARACTERS AND GIVE THEM EMBARRASSMENT FOR AGES AFTER. Yes good.

* As mentioned in chat, Scott will find himself the proud leader of a slightly creepy troll bad boy stalker type guy. Because Mick likes rattling cages and snapping people out of their Very Narrow Boxes.

* Bagoas will try to foist all sorts of complimentary stuff, because a) social awareness, b) anti-bullying and c) cute boys get free cookies

* Cain will bear his keratoconus in mind during PE, but not give any special favors. Wouldn't wanna single out anyone, after all, especially not a good kid.

* Scott will not really know how to handle this.

* He will always politely decline because he doesn't need free stuff, he comes from a well off family.

* He would be horrified if he did get special treatment. He wears glasses, that's all.

Exactly. There's a line to how PC Cain'll want to be at any given time despite (or because of) overly conscionable parents. It's just an eye condition, he's got his glasses, 'nuff said.
