Uh, this is getting long. Have some cuts!
Me: [Having just been linked to
this.] That was the saddest show ever, Mia and Jayden.
second_batgirl: yes
Me: But Brittany!
TSB: yes it was
SHE WAS A CHEERLEADER
I possibly need the non-powered AU where she's head cheerleader and Mike is class clown
Me: THAT SOUNDS AWESOME
TSB: MIKE AND SPIKE TOTALLY COMPETE OVER BEING CLASS CLOWN OR WHATEVER
JAYDEN IS SUPER POPULAR AND KEVIN IS ON THE SWIM TEAM
Me: ANTONIO IS THE KING OF THE DRAMA CLUB
TSB:JII IS THE PRINCIPAL
YESSSS
MIA TOTALLY FAILS HOME EC
BECAUSE I AM HORRIBLE
Me: DAYU IS THE "I WISH I WAS HEAD" CHEERLEADER
TSB:YESSSSSSSS
DEKER IS THE BAD BOY
Me: WHO HAD A RUN-IN WITH DEAD-MAN'S CURVE AND NOW DOESN'T REMEMBER EVER DATING DAYU
TSB: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
TSB: so what about the rest of the villains?
Me: Octoroo is like supernerd and is rumored to live in the library like, in the "it's his home" sense.
TSB: heeee
Me: Xandred is a stoner with some major anger management issues when he's sober.
TSB: HAHAHA YES
Me: AND AND. The seniors are starting to realize OH SHIT WE'RE ALL GONNA MOVE APART, so elementary school fads are totally in right now, so the all-purpose insult is that someone "is such a mooger."
TSB: YES
THAT IS AMAZING
Me: GOD WHY AM I BUILDING A HIGH SCHOOL AU?
TSB: BECAUSE IT IS AMAZING
Me: WHO IS BULK? THERE ARE SO MANY EXCELLENT OPTIONS
TSB: HE TOTALLY TEACHES SOMETHING
OH MY GOD, SPIKE SHOULD BE A BAND NERD
ME: (IF SKULL IS PRESENT HE IS TOTALLY THE BAND DIRECTOR)
TSB: YESSSSSSSSS
Me: BULK TEACHES SCIENCE OMG DUH
PARTICULARLY WHATEVER COURSE TEACHES SPACE STUFF IN HS IDK I DIDN'T TAKE THAT ONE
TSB: YESSSSSSSSS
OR HE COULD RUN THE LOCAL HANGOUT OR WHATEVER
Me: WE STILL DON'T HAVE PROOF SAMURAI *ISN'T* IN AG, SO BULKMEIER'S/THE JUICE BAR/WHATEVER
TSB: CLEARLY
IN THAT CASE, KIM AS CHEERLEADING COACH, Y/Y?
Me: MFY
TSB: :DDDDDDDDDDDDD
TSB: So since Jii is the principal, Jayden totally has to deal with being his adopted kid or whatever
and since Antonio is also totally a clown, Principal Jii totally does not approve of them being friends, because Jayden should do better
Me: ...Do they have to secretly date, then? THEY HAVE TO SECRETLY DATE.
TSB: THEY TOTALLY HAVE TO SECRETLY DATE
Me: "JII, TECH REHEARSALS ALWAYS RUN LONG. I HAVE A LOT OF LIGHT CUES."
TSB: JAYDEN AND ANTONIO: MAKE OUT IN PROP CLOSET
Me: MS APPLEBEE: TOTALLY ONTO THEM, WANTS HER REHEARSAL BACK ON TRACK
TSB: EVENTUALLY: JII - I don't care if you're gay, you are my son and I deeply care for you. But don't you think you could do better for your choice of boyfriend? Look at Kevin!
ME: Jayden: Kevin is dating Mia, Jii.
Kevin: IF SHE SAYS IT'S OKAY I CAN TOTALLY DATE YOU TOO *STARRY EYES*
TSB: YESSSSS
And Antonio is just sad that Jayden's dad doesn't like him
Me: He even fixed his broken lobster statuette from that trip to... IDK, Maine?
(Maybe that was a stretch)
TSB: heee
