Picked this gorgeous girl up from the TGA Pet Fair last night, and we have been bonding ever since! I have named her Priscilla, Prissy for short, and she is the most amazing companion I could have asked for!

I’m already behind, Miss, I know. I’ll be out and about more often, I’m working with the clubs list. You know I’ll be in soccer, swimming, and track.
PM: I’m making it. I’m glad to be here. How are you, Miss?
Polo, darling, that isn’t what I meant. It is my fault for not being clearer. You shouldn’t feel as though you are behind- you have only just arrived, there is a grace period for these things I’m sure. I’m glad to see and hear that you’re working on getting involved, but that wasn’t a comment made to pressure you. Only to indicate that you are wanted and welcome. Those are incredible choices, however. You always have been quite the athelete.
DM: Simply making it? I’m glad you’re glad. Know that your presence is something to celebrate, despite your apparent belief otherwise. I’m well, darling, thank you for asking. I am looking forward to the retreat this weekend, I believe it shall bring a great deal of much needed relaxation.

OOC: Gifts left outside of everyone’s doors on Valentine’s Day. Artie did his research- those who needed sugar free cookies got them, those with gluten intolerances got gluten free, and those who are vegan got vegan cookies! Each card had a short, personalized message included, saying something nice about the recipient and wishing them a Happy Valentine’s Day.
@tgaimportant
Artie, darling, thank you for putting this together. Your kindness is recognized and adored. The cookies were to die for, and the card could not have been more perfect. I do hope you had a wonderful holiday yourself!
switchedpolito:
I’ve been asking for a transfer for years, I didn’t think this was how I’d get it. Still on the fence about being this far away. My name is Polo, I’m a Submissive, and it’s good to finally have a fresh start. I came in last night but I didn’t feel like being social so I settled in and charged my new phone that the school gave me. …How is everyone?
@tgaimportant
Polo, darling, lovely to see that you’ve been able to join us. Are you getting yourself settled, and finding your way alright? If you find yourself needing assistance, please remember to reach out immediately. I hope we can count on seeing you around campus soon, once you feel up to it!
DM: Truly, how are you doing, Polo?
dom-patrick:
When I first got here it looked that much bigger, maybe because there weren’t so many people around. With how crowded it is the perpective changes. That would be a great idea, us putting our heads together to see what we can come up with. I meant no disrespect to you, Sofia, and even less so I was implying that you couldn’t handle anything that may come your way. And I’m aware this is how things had been way before the rebellion, but things- people this time around feels like so much more on an edge. That’s all I was referring to, not your own way into taking these matters head on. Also, the slight touch of sarcasm there? Really not necessary. It was merely a comment.
Perspective does often change with time, that is very true. Yes, well, lucky for both of us several people are doing their best to make sure that happens, myself included. Right, of course. Because, it would simply be tacky to imply something of the sort. Initially, however, that was not my assumption, nor is it now. I was simply stating those facts as supporting indicators that I do, in fact, know how to handle myself and my communication on matters such as these. The bottom line for me, Patrick, was that you seemed to have an air of...Oh, what might the best way to say this be? Superiority. As if I, in some way, required your direction when it comes to how I choose to handle things. Granted, tone and text most certainly do not mix well. I do always welcome the perspectives of others. I take no offense to that. But again, that is not the way in which the tone of your comment read. Not necessary? Right. Because the “slight touch” of snark within your own was most certainly called for. I suppose that doesn’t matter when it’s coming from you though, does it? I in no way intend to be rude or argumentative, and therefore you most certainly have my apologies if that is the case. But it is apparent that this particular conversation is going nowhere fast. So, I will bid you a good day, and wish you well.

As promised, here is the list of paired couples for the Valentine’s Day event that I put together. Due to the lack of participation when it came to signing up, I’ve decided to pair up the entire campus. If I missed you, it was on accident. Simply reach out to me and I will rectify my mistake. As a reminder, the purpose of this event was to reach out to people and get to know someone new. Reach out to your partner and set up some form of shared activity, be it a BDSM scene, sex, a date, or simply “hanging out.”

*Sir Remy Navarro, Sir Hunter Clarington, and Sir Roswell Meeks had asked to be left out, but I needed them for the numbers. Keep that in mind when approaching, as they will likely not enjoy any kind of pressure to engage intimately.
You have done an excellent job with this, Eleanor. Although, anyone who knows you certainly wouldn’t have expected anything less from you. I am excited for our time together! It has been too long since we have had the chance to chat outside of our familial obligations!
skankqueenzizes:
Okay, I’m gonna need you all to back up off those private DMs and leave the juicy bits out in the open because the dash is funny, but I bet it’d be a whole lot more hilarious if I could see everything. Don’t make me come steal your phones to read them the hard way.
@tgaimportant
Lauren, it is a pleasure to see you returning once more. In terms of what you are speaking on, I must say I agree tenfold. How much better and easier would all things be if all could manage to act as the adults we claim to be, and choose to speak to each other rather than about each other? It is a dream I will hold onto, however I suspect that is for different reasons than yourself, dear. Besides all of that, how have you been dear?
dommanny:
My apologies for not getting to this sooner but things have been a bit distracting around here. It’s nice to see you again, Sophia. Have you been settling in well?
Manny! How lovely to see you, you most certainly do know how to make an entrance darling. Understandable, I hold nothing against you, truly. I have been! I took one half day of rest before hitting the ground running with attempting to assist the current climate in any way I am able. I have seen your response to Ross’ call, I do think it’s going to be such an excellent step for all of us to take together. What have you been getting into since returning, Emmanuel, or have you been keeping your nose clean?
charmingnoble:
PRIVATE TO ALL ROYALS, NOBLES & POLITICIANS
I’ve taken some time to think this over, and I think with the way that public displays are going individually, we might be better suited to take this on from a united front. Regardless of politics, setting aside opinions is the best way to move forward, I think. Instead of focusing on what’s happening or what we think about it, we should be there for the clean up and keeping things civil on all fronts. My suggestion is that we start putting together care packages, and honestly this is something that we can continue to put together for the rest of our time here. The infirmary already has aftercare kits and stuff, but we have the money to throw a little luxury in there, to take this specific event as a special circumstance to give a little more. Some have already offered their suites and assistance, but it might be easier to anonymously pick up a box somewhere and take it with them. And with no opinions or political views attached to this endeavor, everyone and anyone can feel like they can take advantage of it.
Another idea to go with this that I want all of your help with is to sign out one of the meeting rooms either at Dalton or over in the club hall in the admin building. We can leave the care packages there for people to take but also set it up nicely so that anyone and everyone feels like they can go somewhere to enjoy themselves, hang out, and relax. We could bring in bean bag chairs, televisions, game consoles, and maybe even sign out a second room as a spa with items we’ll restock to help people chill and pamper themselves. I bet we could find some people to volunteer to hang out in both spaces, to moderate and to help in the spa. I think we’ve got at least one makeup artist and at least one hair stylist in the student population, we’ve got everything else.
If anyone else has anything to add, feel free. To be clear, I’m hoping to do something together that will go beyond mark, status, and politics. To give back, and to provide safety and try to lead by example to call for a ceasefire with all of the tension and fighting.

I must say, this was the perfect thing to awaken to, Ross. This is a splendid idea, truly. I am impressed with not only the dedication it took to suggest something of this nature, but with the responses it has garnered thus far. I will make myself available for anything necessary, including the suggestions others have made as well. Together, we can help continue this forward momentum, and ensure everyone comes out on the other side of this feeling better than before. Of course I will continue to brainstorm independently, to find ideas to present to the group. I could not be more excited!
dom-patrick:
I would be disappointed if they ever will. What’s not to be thrilled about? You know we always managed to have a great time together, so I don’t see why it has to be different now. I’m glad too, and I hope we get to see a lot of each other from now on. Also, I saw your post about what’s been going on lately at the school and… Well, I’ve come to learn this place has a very polarized opinion on the matter, so you should treat that carefully. Just saying.
Yes, of course. I am sure a great time will be had by all. I’m sure we will, the campus is large, but not excessively so. And, given both of our statuses I’m sure we’ll have the chance to work closely once more. Oh, so you did. Yes, well, that is a fact I recognized long before arriving here, and long before the post was made, Patrick. I cannot speak to the length of your time here thus far, but none of this is new to this world, especially since the rebellion. While I appreciate the...Warning, as it were, I am fully capable of handling myself, and the manner in which I present my opinions. As the head of my family, the eldest, and the one who wears the crown, I have been educated since early, early childhood on political matters such as these. As has my brother. I spoke on the topic with the utmost respect, and have had nothing but respectful and productive conversations since. As they say, I believe I am doing “just fine”. Though please, feel free to continue “just saying” anything you wish.
tgaheadmistress:
Good afternoon, students. As I’m sure you all remember, we’re in a school and despite the vivacity of the drama that permeates our beloved campus at all times, the education must go on. So on we go.
MARK LEADER ELECTIONS have arrived!
What that means for all of you is that we’ve reached the part of this process where you all take a look at the names listed below and then send your vote in by responding to this to keep the votes organized and easy to find. You may either vote publicly or through a private response.
May the best of each mark win. And of course, for all those that did not get the chance to run this time or do not win, there will be another election coming soon. This is meant to be a process that allows each Mark Leader two weeks with the title before another round of elections begin, but these things are also done based on interest, so if that is lacking it may be a monthly ordeal instead. It’s all up to you. While this is all an optional experience, you should all be voting and you can trust that I have my eyes on those that do and don’t.
Submissive Mark Leader candidates:
Valeria Aguirre
Ambrose Eliot-Abrams
Eleanor Flanagan
Mason McCarthy
Switch Mark Leader candidates:
Darrean Anderson
Dominant Mark Leader candidates:
Campbell Clarington
Madison McCarthy
Also remember that running for Mark Leader has already given each student listed above ONE PARTICIPATION POINT, because they have proven their character by participating. The winners will be given an additional NINE PARTICIPATION POINTS for all of the work they will do as Mark Leader, bringing them up to a total of TEN POINTS. That should tell you how much effort the winner should be putting in, so those of you listed above and those of you considering running in the future need to keep that in mind.
Everyone that votes will get ONE POINT as well. What can be done with these points will be detailed at a later time. Happy voting.
Good morning to you, Headmistress! My name is Sophia St. James, and I have come to vote in the mark leadership election!
Submissive: Valeria Aguirre Switch: Darrean Anderson Dominant: Campbell Clarington
PM: Thank you, Miss. For what you said about my sister.
[PRIVATE]: Good evening Jeff! Of course, it is no trouble. I understand that not everyone is in agreement regarding this topic, but it is one that deserves attention and to be spoken on. I hope you are doing well, Jeff.
[MESSAGE from SOPHIA ST. JAMES]: Parker, my darling brother. While I would never wish to police you in any manner, I would be remiss if I were to ignore the bitterness which seems to be stemming from recent commentary regarding what is happening with this submissive, Genevieve, on campus. I shall offer a gentle reminder that this is an incredibly sensitive subject, one which we in turn must be sensitive to, given our family status and titles. I am sure I need not say more. I shall warn you that I will be releasing a public statement later this evening, which I have carefully crafted to address the issue. There will likely be some commentary, which I welcome, but I do hope that it is a conversation you will consider taking a more active role in, in the future. With that out of the way, are you well? Do you require anything at the moment?
PM: It's amazing how anytime you think I do something wrong you open it with "I would never wish to police you". It's kinda a habit of yours. Considering I arrived after the whole situation- and barely really know the details of it, is the only reason I haven't made any definite proper words on it. You make me have an active role in the future? I'm literally openly supporting that little submissive club, Sophia. It might be people's choice to paint me as *uncaring* or callous. It's not any close to the truth- but if it makes you feel better, I'll take your words under advisement. All right? And I'm fine. As always, settling in. Taking in the cute boys. Embracing the moment I can leave.
[PRIVATE]: Parker, I did not enter your inbox with an attitude or a sideways spirit, I request you show me the same courtesy. Yes, I am aware. Or have you so soon forgotten that we arrived on the same evening? The point is not that you have not made definite words, it is that you seemingly have. But, I will not argue with you as that is not the intention in the slightest. No. What I said was that I hoped you would take a more active role in the discussions in the future. Yes, I have seen, and I both appreciate and approve. Work and support of that nature is important, and I am proud to see you taking that stance. Perhaps, but just as you seem to have forgotten our arrival times, you seem to forget that these are the same people who will ultimately have a large hand and play an active role in our family’s future. These are people whom it is imperative we make good, lasting connections with. The court of public opinion is both harsh and cruel, but it is for that reason that we must work doubly hard to make sure we keep an eye on the perceptions of us. Like it or not Parker, this is who we are. I love you, but those are inescapable facts, unless you choose to give up your title and the luxuries which come with it. I do wish you would have a better outlook. Things don’t have to be bad, but as long as you continue perceiving them as such, that is all they will ever be. Forgive me for attempting to care. For worrying. Perhaps it is a mistake I won’t make again.
eleanor-flanagan:
As the Princess of Ireland and so far, the individual student that has put in the most time and work towards bettering our landscape here, I find this post and the sentiment to be a complete waste of time. Nobody has done anything wrong, except for Genevieve who disrespected the entire academy and our world as a whole, and that situation is being satisfactorily and mundanely rectified. Honestly, the only thing I’d change is seeing everyone that has had anything negative to say about the way these Dominants chose to handle being directly disrespected for no apparent reason be punished as well. It’s simply another day ending in y.
Eleanor, I thought I might see you putting in a response. I am aware of your position on these matters, and of course I am sure you are aware of how our opinions differ when it comes to things like these. I said I welcomed all opinions, and of course I stand by that, and I appreciate you taking the time to respond and share your thoughts. I know that things like this should be commonplace still, based on your own beliefs, however the time has come I believe to examine things under the lense of as they are now. That aside, even if we were still operating under the old laws, I would possess the same concerns. Mental state is an important thing to consider, Eleanor. Even under the old laws. If you’ll remember dear, the old ways denoted that submissives were to receive any treatment thought appropriate by the Dominant, provided that no lasting damage was done- damage which might prevent them from serving other Dominants. Correct? Consider that in this situation, the question is whether or not that line is being crossed. That is a large consideration, and warrants at the very least a check-in. If she is unable to serve another Dominant at the end of this, whatever that is and whenever that is, is that not a detriment in your eyes and under your beliefs?
Good evening, fellow students of TGA. I felt that it was pertinent I address and make a formal statement regarding the goings-on we are seeing around campus lately. First, I want to assure that I am in no way overlooking or ignoring what is taking place. Beyond the concern for Genevieve, what is playing out before us calls attention to a core issue since the changing of the laws- how far is too far? What is the definition of consent? How far does consent carry when the sanity of the actions are called into question? Each of these are important parts of this situation, and ones I have seen many of you calling out to have addressed. When the laws changed, and this new way came about, it was known that we, as a society, would run into problems just like this one. With two clearly defined ways of thinking and so many supporters on each side, definitions blur. And, as we all know from simple day to day living, the laws have never been what any could call black and white. Life brings grey area. Now, I am aware that this submissive has consented to a harsh punishment, and via my own memory and thoughts I have heard and read from others, it is clear this person enjoys the harsher side of punishments. That alone is not anything which should be judged. However, the question becomes how far consent goes when again, the sanity of the consent is in question.
Genevieve consented to harsh, but did she consent to cruel? And if she did, was this what she was expecting? If it wasn’t, how comfortable and/or sane is she at this point to be trusted to continue giving consent? These are all questions we should be asking, on both sides of the fence. As the Crown Princess of England, my beliefs on and support of the new ways are no secret. With that in mind, I must publicly state at this point that I am in full disagreement with what is happening. At this time, I offer an open door and a listening ear to any who want to further discuss the topic, and what it means for the future of our society. I give my word that I will focus my efforts and energy into making sure that all parties are satisfied, and that this event is able to come to a hasty and peaceful resolution.
I want to extend my sincerest apologies to those who feel that members of any other royal family, including my own, have chosen to disregard and overlook what is happening. I can understand the frustration surrounding that, as this is the very thing our families and we ourselves are called to deal with directly by birth. I refuse to take a backseat and I refuse to bury my head in the sand. This is a difficult landscape for us all, and these divides must be discussed and paid attention to if we have any hope of moving forward in a peaceful and ethical society. I welcome all thoughts and respectful discussion from all. And, I urge those involved and those directly affected (which in reality should be all of us) to reach out to me. Let me know how I can help, beyond the ideas I already have. Hearing everyone, no matter your opinion or side of the fence, is imperative to anyone in a leadership position. I will not discriminate, even if I disagree personally with what you are saying. I am here for each of you, and I will do my best to be here for Genevieve, to help in any way I am able, to see that this ends in the best way possible for all parties.

Good evening to you, Headmistress Castillo, and a blessed week! I have come to cast my votes for the Mark Leader race!
-Dominant: Campbell Clarington -Switch: Darrean Anderson -Submissive: Valeria Aguirre
submissivebee:
It’s rarely…not lively, as I’m sure you’ll realize sooner rather than later - but hey, at least that means we’re rarely bored around here! Anyway, welcome! I’m Blaine Anderson, submissive - would you mind telling me if you’re mark so that I know what titles, if any, to use?
Oh, I am more than familiar with the workings of campus life, and the considerable excitement which seems to always be taking place. I prefer it, though. These incidents and discussions are of the utmost importance, especially so in the shifting world we all find ourselves living in. Discussion of and attention to each are imperative, though I am sure that is not a stance I should have to explain to you, give your family’s lineage. Yes, Blaine. I have seen you around, rest assured. And, I have taken notice of your fondness for my younger brother, Parker. I am a Domme, yes. Thank you for asking, Blaine. I trust that you are well?
