Also, I'm pretty sure my husband is willing to help my RL average whenever I am.

I'm... not sure how to think about this one. I mean... what? why?
GasBandit

Because he's... pissed.. off. (When I make comments about somebody being mad or sad, I'm not embellishing. The soundtrack of the game changes to clue me in to how people around the person I'm controlling feel - and when nobody's close, how my puppet feels. At that moment, it let me know you were really mad).
Anyway, tune in here in an hour or so for Day 19: Cheesy's on the Rebound

DAY 19: CHEESY ONE
Cheesy's been a fixture this semester, in that everybody's seen him but he doesn't stand out, other than the long relationship he had with Dirona, the Team Cleric, which recently came crashing to a halt when she broke it off. It broke Cheesy's heart and he can't even bear to look at her any more. But he's got friends in Jay and Justine (ironic considering THEY are also ex-lovers who can't stand each other, not to mention Jay used to bully him at the beginning of the semester), and most of the class considers him at least cordially, other than one or two assholes.
First person he runs into upon arriving at school is Frank. He says hello to him, and the two strike up a wide-ranging conversation.
In the classroom, he finds Jay.
He also sees the new guy, Joe, and has a brief conversation with him.
It's too early for class, so he puts his stuff in his homeroom desk and then heads out. Right out in the hallway, he witnesses Frank and Dei's argument devolve into another brawl. Cheesy's too timid to get involved and leaves quickly.
Back at the front gate, he's approached by Jay, who offers to let him copy his homework. Cheesy is grateful. They head for the library.
But looking at them, Cheesy's pretty sure Jay got most of these answers wrong.
He's approached by Dei, who offers him encouraging words about his sports efforts. He feels like a heel for running from her confrontation with Frank - but he likes them both the same and doesn't want to pick sides.
While he's talking to Dei, he's approached by the last person he thought would be talking to him - Dirona. Cheesy's still super mad at her, but he's too meek to do anything overtly hostile. He mumbles and flees the library.
Jay catches up to him (easily) and tells him to forget about it, cheer up and calm down. Cheesy becomes less upset.
He heads back inside, and is caught by Dirona in the breezeway again. She wants to talk to him about behaving properly in public. Cheesy's in no mood for this and tells her to leave him alone! After which he flees again.
Jay catches him again, and tells him if he wants to avoid Dirona he knows a good place. Cheesy follows him.. it's the Boy's Kendo changing room. Cheesy's not as sure as Jay about this, he knows as well as anyone that Dirona's not exactly shy about invading men's rooms.
Nevertheless, Cheesy stays there until it's time for homeroom to begin.
Morning classes go well enough. Lunch rolls around and Cheesy's ready for some grub. He sees Justine is really feeling down, so he tries to cheer her up and asks her to go to lunch. Dirona looks like she's about to object but they get away from her.
Over lunch, they have a really long talk. Justine is surprisingly easy to talk to. They become very relaxed in each other's presence.
Gusto tries to butt in, but she brushes him off.
Next thing he knows, Justine's giggling and hugging him.
Cheesy's not the kind of guy to press his luck when things are going well, so he's careful not to let his mind (or hands) wander too far into dangerous territory. When they finish lunch and head back downstairs, Tin Whistler's got scholastic encouragement for him.
They keep walking together, and pass behind the Gym where Justine stops to chat with Lana Karron. Frank gets into another fight, this time with Klew.
The result is predictable.
Cheesy and Justine stop and chat some more in the courtyard. He asks her about Jay, and she says they're not as hostile as they used to be. They're just classmates though, nothing more, nothing less.
They stop for a bathroom break, and of course, separate into their respective doors (though he almost accidentally goes in the wrong one).
Justine takes way longer than him in the can, so he goes for a walk around on his own, and soon runs into Ashburner X in the hallway. She's pretty nice so he says hello to her.
Turns out Ash is super pissed about something. Cheesy tries to calm her down, and has some success.
He sees Dirona headed his way, with some warning this time. To evade her, he ducks into the gym, then realizes that's as good as hiding in the open, so he ducks into the storage room.
It's only a couple minutes, and Justine finds him there, and tells him not to get so worked up.
She then proceeds to give him a reason to get worked up. Cheesy's ability to access, interpret and express information takes a temporary sabbatical.
Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately depending on your perspective), Cheesy is rescued by the bell signalling the end of lunch.
Afternoon classes also proceed well. Cheesy's feeling pretty good.
When classes come to an end, there's some kind of confrontation involving Dei but Joe won't get his enormous bulk out of the way in time for me to see what's going on.
Justine asks Cheesy to keep her company during practice. What's he gonna do, say no?
It's very hard for him to keep up with her, though. She's skinny and energetic, and he's... well, not. But it does give them some time together.
As usual, Cheesy's performance is probably the worst on the team. It gets him down.
After practice, Tin Whistler's also distressed about something. Cheesy bolsters his resolve.
As he leaves, he meets Dei in the hall and waves hello. She's got an odd look in her eye. Probably looking for Bones.
Almost immediately, Justine shows up too, but she's acting out about something.
She tells him to meet her at the classroom. What could she want there, so late in the day? But he agrees.
As expected, the place is empty when he arrives.
But he's not there long before Justine gets there too.
She approaches him and, to his (and my) great surprise, asks Cheesy to be her boyfriend. He nods in a manner somewhere between panic and eagerness. It pleases Justine.
She leads him out of the classroom, back down to the gym, and back into the supplies room.
There she puts a death grip on his neck and kisses him half to death.
Then her hands are going under his clothes. Cheesy's not home right now, please leave a message after the strangled whimper.
But just as things are getting mindblowing - Eve Stienman walks in and chastises them both. "Not in public." "Duh!" says Justine, "That's why we're in a STORAGE ROOM you little.."
Cheesy finally pipes up "Uhm.. there.. there's nobody home at my.. house?" So glad you could contribute Cheesy!
And it's off to the races.
Some time later, Justine Me is spotted leaving Cheesy's house, pausing for a goodnight kiss as she goes.
END OF DAY 19
Epilogue: Who's the most popular guy in school? Cheesy, that's who. Who knew he had it in him? Clean living and a forthright heart. In addition to the official romance and gittin' bizay with Justine, Cheesy's now regarded at 12 or above with Dei, Jay, Frank, Tin and Ash. It's been a heck of a day for him. There's trouble in paradise though, as Frank's regard for Tin is suddenly sinking inexplicably. Frank better be careful about his violent tendencies, Justine apparently found focus and drive after her defeat at Tin's hand, and she's back at the top of the athletics ranking again. The only person Raven Poe can even barely tolerate now is Kags - everybody else is 6 or below in her eyes now, even though Kags, Mind and Gusto are all actually very fond of her. Oh, and I corrected the erroneous sex count for Bubble and Shawn.

Well, it's only natural to get a big population bump when you snag the school's most eligible bachelor for your squeeze toy.And yay, climbing up the popularity ladder again.
She doesn't want to bump the population, girl just want to have fun!

The way things are looking, this will be the last week of updates for the semester, with about 5 or so characters left to have their "day." Once that is over, I'm thinking there will be a brief hiatus that will allow me to send certain characters to "therapy" to address their self hate/hate everybody issues. Also I may adjust some characters to reduce asocial behaviors, since all this time will have gone by that people should be familiar enough with their classmates. It'll be a large undertaking though that will require a few days without updates probably, because the self-hate fix will basically make me transfer out a character, transfer it back in, then re-key all the relationship data for them by hand.

Indeed, and more often girls than not. I don't think there's anything I can do to adjust that, either. Hell, I can't even really say whether he's picking the fights or just defending himself.
He's just mad because I beat Justine up and he couldn't. Now he's all "See? I do too hit harder than a girl."
I bet that bedroom at the end of the day is absolutely WRECKED.

DAY 20: LANA KARRON
Lana's a bit of a polarizing figure in school life. With her rough tomboyishness, forceful personality and control issues, there's many people who both get along with her very well, and not at all. She's in a declared relationship with Lord Rendar, and they're completely ga-ga over each other - often spurring the PDAs for which she previously so often chastised her classmates. Additionally she's great friends with Justine, Kags and Frank, and bitter rivals with Dei, Jay, Shawn, Film Fanatic and Bones - and she doesn't much care for Dirona either, lately.
She meets her boyfriend LR on the way to school. Like so many people these days, he seems depressed. Something's going around in the school that is depressing the kids - it seems contagious. Anyway, she convinces him to buck up.
Justine is there too - at least she's cheerful. Even moreso than usual. I WONDER WHY.
She and LR pass Tinwhistler and Frank on the way in to class. The musk of barely restrained yaoi passion is nearly stifling.
Speaking of which, all Justine seems to want to talk about this morning is sex.
Lana and Rendar hang out on the roof for a while yakking about this and that.
After a bit they go walking. As they pass through the Breezeway, Jay confronts her, telling her to stay the fuck away from him. Lana's about to teach him some manners when Frank intervenes and ices down the situation. That's a first - Frank STOPPING a fight.
For some reason, this morning the Kendo hall seems the place to be... until Lana looks around and realizes that besides Lord Rendar, almost everybody there doesn't like her.
She tells Lord Rendar she'd rather not be here right now, and he agrees. They walk to the courtyard.
There, the atmosphere becomes too much for LR, and he pulls Lana to him... but Klew is there too, and she seems... a little too intent on watching. And making comments. It kills the mood.
They meet Kags by the front gate, and have a friendly chat.
Justine catches Lana again, asks her to go with her to the bathroom... ohhh kay...
No funny business. Just girl chat.
When they're finished, they head to class, just in time to catch the tail end of some kind of confrontation between Frank, Kags, and Lord Rendar. Lana's pointedly interested to know what that's all about, but nobody's talking. But Rendar's down in the dumps again.
The bell rings, and morning classes begin. Nothing out of the ordinary, Lana performs well.
At lunch, she, Lord Rendar, Justine, Frank, Klew and Raven Poe group up for lunch on the roof. A good social group, though Klew and Raven kind of surprise her - she didn't think they were particularly fond of her.
As they finish and drift off to their own pursuits, LR bashfully tells Lana that he loves her. He seems kind of a sentimentalist, this sort of thing is common for him.
Lana rewards him with a visit to Marshmallow Hell.
Lord Rendar looks around and notes they're alone. "Hey.. nobody's here... you wanna do it?" "Not here, you boob!" Lana huffs. Then squirms a bit.. "Come with me!"
She takes him by the arm and pulls him down the hall, to the unused classroom.
Yyyyyep.
When it's all over, she's thinking, she's not sure but she thinks Justine and Cheesy walked into the room, then abruptly left. Maybe Frank, too, later. It's good to have understanding friends.
Of course, that doesn't stop them from cracking wise next time she sees them.
As they walk behind the Gym, LR pauses to talk to Shawn Acy (who isn't particuarly one of Lana's favorite people) but then along comes Bubble who just can't seem to stand anybody talking to his boyfriend.
With that behind them, the rest of lunch is spent walking together, occasionally stopping to find an excuse to act besotted.
Afternoon classes are a bore. When they're over, Frank asks the whole class to be nice to Cheesy - like everybody's already not nice to Cheesy.
Suddenly Dirona and Bubble are trading blows in the front of the room! Dirona's just been in a horrible mood lately, and Bubble's already known for his ability to grate on people to begin with. He probably said something to her about Cheesy.
Eventually Dirona can't hold her own against Bubble any longer, and she hits the tile.
Justine wants to go practice. So off they go, though Lana's sure warming up for Kendo won't do much for her in Volleyball practice.
And while she's there, Frank joins in as well.
Turns out Lord Rendar's been watching her, and has been getting... ideas. Jeez, the boy's insatiable. She takes him by the hand...
And leads him off to the gym to help HER warm up for Volleyball! What were YOU thinking, eh? EH?
She ducks her head out to check the commotion outside - Girls are approaching Cheesy one after another to talk to him, and Justine has her hands full trying to fend all the other birds away from her catch.
She's the only girl on the volleyball team, but she does her best, and as far as one-person practices go, this one was pretty good.
Frank finds her in the Gymnasium and warns her about Dei Skates. She's dangerous, according to Frank. Well, Lana's not friends with her anyway.
After a brief chat, they split up, and Lana has barely taken a turn around the gym when Lord Rendar finds her and says "Come with me!"
He takes her to their classroom. Cute boy. Gets a kiss. He has to stand on his tiptoes lest she lift him completely off the ground, being a full head taller than him.
Rendar keeps wooing her with sweet words...
...until his hands start getting frisky, too. Next thing you know...
When they're finally exhausted, Lana has Lord Rendar walk her home.
END OF DAY 20
Epilogue: Well, what can I say. Most of today had not-for-camera content. These two are freakin' horny toads trying to go at it every moment they can. Guess they're trying to break into the top 3 leaderboard! In other relationship news today, Frank and Tin Whistler apparently had a major falling out today and called it quits. They're enemies now. I wonder if on a long enough timeline, this is the fate of the whole class - 20 to 25 kids who've all swapped baby batter but now hate each others' guts. No other breakups or declarations, but Film Fanatic's obviously doing something wrong with Klew - he's crazy about her, but her opinion of him just keeps getting lower and lower. Maybe his first and only to date girlfriend skewed his expectations for how girls act in these situations - Klew's a lot more reserved than Dei, and probably FF is coming on too strong. Also, I wasn't quick enough on the screenshot button as Lana ran past the entry lockers dragging LR (and she's almost as fast as Frank), but I am pretty sure I saw Justine Me blowing Cheesy One between the lockers. She's so freaky. Also I still don't get how this self hate thing keeps accumulating - despite getting ridden more than Seattle Slew, Lord Rendar's self-hate went up another notch to 8 today.

Well, apart from 'girls just wanna have fun' this one may also be a theme song for her.
Also, likes climbing her mountain of a man!
I'm just jealous 'cause I love you baby!
...and because I'm permanently PMSing. But love!
If he stabs me... I'm holding you accountable.

DAY 21: BUBBLE 181
Ever since Bubble got into a relationship with Shawn Acy, he's been making enemies left and right. Oh, he gets along well with Ashburner X, but who doesn't? And for the moment he's friendly with Frank the Tank, but now that Frank's back on the market who knows how long that will last. Meanwhile, Bubble has locked horns with Lord Rendar, Little Kagsin, Dei Skates, Shakey the Well Known, and is damn near in a blood feud with Dirona the Team Cleric.
Bubble and Shawn link up on the way to school. Exchanging greatings and affectionate pleasantries, they continue on slowly towards school together.
The school's already pretty lively. In the entrance hall they pass Mind Detective and Gusto, running quickly in the other direction.
They're the first to arrive at the classroom.
Bubble heads off to the restroom for a minute, and when he gets back Shawn isn't in the classroom any more. His lips press into a line and he sets off to find him.
Shawn apparently went to the pool locker room for some reason. Bubble's relieved - he didn't pass anyone leaving on the way here, so his paranoia was unfounded. This time.
Shawn, for his part, takes advantage of the momentary solitude.
They leave and go wandering again - stopping to say hello to Mind Detective as they pass.
Bubble sees Film Fanatic moping around in the gym, and feels sorry for him, so he goes and cheers him up.
Jay comes in too, and talks to Bubble about Sports.
Happy as he is to wander campus with Shawn, he suggests maybe they ought to do a little studying this morning, too. Turns out they have the library to themselves. They study until the morning bell rings.
Morning classes go OK. When it's time for lunch, Bubble, Shawn, Jay, Frank and Cheesy all head to the roof and eat in a pack.
After that, it's back to roaming the grounds with Shawn.
Shawn Acy seems to have a favorite patrol route that goes back and forth between their classroom and the swimming pool.
They run into Raven, Frank and Ashburner along the way back from the pool. Mostly friendly chat, Raven seems to be deliberately contrary sometimes.
In the hallway, that harpy Dirona tries to talk to Shawn. Bubble forces a confrontation. Dirona is sent packing.
They hang out for a while, then start to leave, but suddenly just as Shawn turns a corner, Shakey yanks Bubble aside and with barely a word beats the ever living shit out of him.
That bitch. Bubble swears revenge - and his friends Frank and Jay might be able to help him get it.
He finds Frank and Jay, and trash talks Shakey to them both. Frank takes it to heart, but Jay indicates he already can't stand her. Hopefully this precipitates some bruises on her person.
And just for good measure, he sweet-talks Justine Me a little bit too, then whispers poison in her ear about Shakey.
His mischief made, he sets off to go find and rejoin Shawn, before somebody else gets their hooks in him.
He find him talking to that Kags girl - Bubble doesn't like her either. He makes sure to interrupt THAT little exchange.
Afterwards, Shawn tells Bubble to come with him.
The path leads to the Men's room. At first Bubble is intrigued, but it seems to just be a pit stop.
As they leave the bathroom Kags comes up to talk to Shawn again. That's it, confrontation time! Shawn must choose between Kags and Bubbble.
Shawn chooses Bubble again. Kags is flabbergasted, and Shawn looks like he's starting to have had enough of Bubble's behavior himself.
Cheesy catches bubble's attention, and keeps him distracted. Bubble doesn't know what's going on until he looks around and sees Shawn and Dirona hugging. He thought that was settled! What is this?!
The two separate before he can navigate around Cheesy's monstrous bulk. Then the hall erupts into chaos as Shakey and Raven Poe break out into fisticuffs. Bubble loses track of Shawn and everyone else. Though, he is eager to see someone beat on Shakey...
But it's not to be. Of course Raven can't beat her.
He catches up with Shawn who is in the middle of a knot of people, and he's pissed off about something. Bubble talks him down, getting him to relax.
Lunch is over. Afternoon classes go pretty well! When Bubble and Shawn head for the pool to get ready for swim team practice, Justine decides to follow along and watch. Guess she likes watching guys swimming. Is it just Bubbles' imagination, or is she watching him really intently?
When practice is over, the fellas decide to take one more turn around the school to socialize. No sooner do they leave the pool than they find Frank and Shakey fighting in the courtyard. Bubble mentally pumps an imaginary fist in triumph. Now she'll get hers!
Bubble's satisfaction knows no bounds when Shakey takes one too many hits to the stomach and doubles over in pain. He makes sure to congratulate Frank before Shakey is beyond earshot, so she knows the architect of her misfortune.
In fact he can't help telling her so to her face shortly after Frank leaves.
In all the commotion, Shawn disappeared as well. Bubble heads off to go find him.
His suspicions confirmed, he finds Shawn talking to Kags again. Bubble is livid. Can't take his eyes off that boy for a moment! He breaks them apart again.
Shawn sees Bubble's pulse is doing double time. He suggests to Bubble that they leave and walk home. That appeases Bubble, for now.
END OF DAY 21
Epilogue - Busy day for Bubble. Making friends, arranging for the pummeling of enemies, all while watching Shawn like a hawk. Shakey's reputation is all but destroyed, but Frank's starting to have serious problems with self hate - it's up to 9 now. In fact the only student still untouched by self-hate is Ashburner X, though for most it isn't at problem levels yet. Joe is slowly getting to know Gusto and Kags, but something Dirona has done has turned him right off to her, though she's still chasing him, but it doesn't look like she'll succeed with the new kid. No break ups or declarations today. Justine's still with Cheesy, but this girl never seems content with what she has - and her wandering gaze is starting to fall on Bubble.
Ever since Bubble got into a relationship with Shawn Acy, he's been making enemies left and right. Oh, he gets along well with Ashburner X, but who doesn't? And for the moment he's friendly with Frank the Tank, but now that Frank's back on the market who knows how long that will last. Meanwhile, Bubble has locked horns with Lord Rendar, Little Kagsin, Dei Skates, Shakey the Well Known, and is damn near in a blood feud with Dirona the Team Cleric.
