People have been asking for the fic's RSA dorm names since I am still using the names I gave them before Book 8 gave us the official ones... SO HERE THEY ARE!
1. Wonderlust: Our beautiful, chaotic and creative beyond compare Wonderlust! Full of wondering minds and people who TRIVE in chaos, or are able to find calm and order in it. Despite popular belief, Wonderlust DOES have rules, but they are not written, and no one knows exactly what they are! Oh! Also, the dorm is alive and sentient. Don't ask why, don't ask how... it just is! The last bit of the original Wonderland that's left...
2. Lightpride: Proud, determined and brave. The people in this dorm don't back down from a challenge; they keep pushing forward, no matter what! If they have a reason to fight or someone to protect, they go for it. But they also know when to take a break and relax for a bit, life is not a constant battle, and you need to enjoy the things you fight for. The dorm is full of born leaders, nature lovers and a surprising amount of artists.
3. Mermelody: For the yearners, the dreamers and those who don't know exactly where they belong but want to see what's just beyond the horizon. They don't know who they will be tomorrow, and they can't wait to meet themselves!
4. Simmeringrough: You know them, you love them, our RSA protagonists go here! The dorm is actually inspired by both Jasmine and Aladdin, represented by the fact that it houses both the "Brightests Jewels" and the "Diamonds in the rough" People in this dorm tend to be people who have been understimated, put in one box and expected to stay there... But they never do. They are sharper than people give them credit for. Fast thinkers and usually quite fast in general. They may not always follow tradition, but they get things done! (They also tend to catch up acrobatics somewhere in the 3 years in the dorm, the dorm is pretty much designed for free movement)
5. Pommeschonste: The fullest Dorm in RSA. People here are Often kind and sweet and always willing to help everyone (and struggling to accept help) They are the reason the Goodie-two-shoes stereotype exists in the first place. But they can be very fun to have around, they will join any hangout idea (Mostly to get out of the dorm, there are so many people there, and it is so tiny, it's suffocating) They often get to be the team mom, assigned driver or healer of the team, and they'd be happy to. (Think Druid) But also... don't mess with their friends, for your own good... (Again, think Druid)
6. Heroheart: It's a bit as if Hero complex and Hubris were a dorm... They are well-intended, don't get me wrong! And many of them are amazing strategists! The problem is that not everyone listens... They are also pretty competitive.
7. Faedream: The most traditional of the dorms, and the one people know the least about, some say it is as chaotic as Wonderlust, others that it is pure order and harmony... Faes, Knights, some inventors, even, no one really knows what goes on in that dorm, well, besides the people from there, but they are not going to tell!
8. Hoppingswamps: YEAH. YOU READ THAT CORRECTLY. 8. Originally, the dorm was made as their version of Ramchackles, only that it is actually used as an actual dorm because that's what it is! Full of some of the most loyal people and best friends you will ever meet, hard workers with drive and determination. They have a dream and they will go for it, no matter what gets in their way. Also, very music-oriented people! most of the music club goes here! Now THIS is the party-throwing Dorm! (Sorry Kalim, I am sure they will let you help) But you have to do the work first before you can party.
So, yeah, that's pretty much it! It is a bit rough and unpollished, but I think it makes sense, right? If anyone has questions, I'll be happy to answer them!
