Mythos Complex is rated M because Ru was too lazy to figure out what it actually fit.
However, the following themes may or may not occur in this RP: extreme violence (namely via monsters); various deaths, including suicides; adult themes, including language and possible sexual encounters (sexual encounters depends on the characters and this still does not permit cybering, for Ru does not like that and it's a no no on RPA); and drug use (this will only occur if there is a character who enters as a druggy, otherwise it will not be there).
For sure occurring themes: extreme and excessive violence; deaths and suicides; excessive language; and sexual tension (I am not sure it will go passed that, but I listed sexual encounters just in case).
Flittering about in the jagged, rough air of the downtown region are many rumors concerning the apartment complex known as Mythos Complex and the suspicious, gruesome deaths of its inhabitants. Quite frequently dead bodies are found outside of the building where it appears the renter thrusted themselves out of their window to their demise against the cold, hard, unforgiving concrete that bashed their face into their skulls. Occasionally the resident is found in worse conditions even the most daring of journalists can't stomach to speak of. Numerous reports have been made of these curious incidents only for the investigators to conclude the victim committed suicide, but with over fifty reports within the last year leading to the same conclusion it leads one to wonder… why? And this only addresses one of the smaller, yes, smaller as in less important, rumors that comes along with living anywhere near Mythos Complex. The other rumors, however, are special.
Ghost stories, most may insist. Throughout the complex’s history residents had complained about hearing mysterious voices urging them to leave the vicinity immediately, though whether they were threatening or warning them varied on the apartment number. The most bizarre reports expressed that they were hearing noises they had never heard before residing her; these noises they claimed to be that of some sort of monster they felt may kill them if not dealt with immediately. With this said, the majority of the locals have concluded these ghost stories and monster tales to be accurate and decided that they must be the cause for the deaths over the years, but none were ever courageous enough to face it.
The only people who dare to live in Mythos Complex are the daring, the poor, and the skeptical.
Which one are you?
It is a survival horror concerning monsters and the supernatural, so compare it to horror movies like that, if you have seen such kind. The most common reoccurring scenes in those are the ones I listed as for sure occurring, though I acknowledge plenty of those movies DO have sex scenes. I am just not sure if any sex would actually happen, since that depends on the players.
In this RP, your character is a resident of Mythos Complex and is presented the chance to finally get rid of these heathens living deep below your home. Obviously, if you choose not to follow then the RP is quite boring, now, isn't it? So, it is highly preferred that you choose to follow the group.
Your goals: destroy the monsters, stop the curse, and survive.
If you want your character to see something, i.e. a spirit, then PM me because I control all spirits, monsters, etc. encounters.
NO CHARACTERS HAVE ANY PRIOR EXPERIENCE WITH MONSTERS. The players will meet the monsters IN Mythos Complex during this RP when the group meets up with the monsters and not before. Your character is welcome to have had a past experience with spirits, however, just not monsters.
-->All RPA rules apply.
-->If you are going to be a slow RPer, then inform me. If you are going to leave, tell me. If you are going to be gone a week, THEN TELL ME. Ru HATES it when someone just DISAPPEARS from a RP and if you do not inform me ahead of time or within two weeks of disappearing then I will KILL YOUR CHARACTER.
-->Ru = GM. GM = God. Thus, listen to Ru.
-->I absolutely adore literacy, seriously. With this said, I am probably more likely to be an ass and kill you off if you make lazy, half-assed posts just outta pure anger. I'm not going to state how much I want per post (though, I will give you a hint, Ru usually requires two paragraphs per post... not 2-3 sentence wimpy paragraphs either).
-->A DIE MUST BE ROLLED EVERY TURN PER CHARACTER.
If the RPA dice rolling system doesn't work, then use this. The last dice is the D20 we are using. RPA Dice Rolling is explained in Dice Rolling and Sanity Points.
1D20 must be rolled per character, which means ONE twenty-sided die must be rolled per character. If you have two characters, then it would be 2D20 instead, got it? This will be explained better in How to Play.
-->DUE TO CHARACTERS' PRESENT LOCATION I AM NO LONGER ACCEPTING NEW CHARACTER SHEETS.
-->One character per player, excluding the GM. You may make a new character upon your own character's death.
-->Tune aka La di da (or whatever she changes her name to) is my co-GM. She won't be accepting profiles, but anything she says is valid.
-->Only I can implement dice roll results. So, when one of my posts states so-and-so received a result only my post is allowed to act on it and put forth the result.
-->Only one roll per round. A round would be from my post to the next one of my posts. So, if you end up posting more than once after one of my posts, but before the next one I make, you would only put your dice roll in the first post, as I will ignore any rolls after that one in my next post.
-->ONLY I CONTROL PARANORMAL EVENTS. ONLY I IMPLEMENT DICE ROLL RESULTS. GO AGAINST THIS AND YOUR CHARACTER WILL BE INSTANTLY TERMINATED.
-->If your character dies in the game you are allowed to create a new one, however it does not mean you get to keep the same room; this game is first come first serve.
First off, creating your character. Simply fill out the character sheet that is at the bottom of this post, post it here, and wait for Ru to respond. The more details, the better.
Now, actually playing in the campaign.
Spoiler: Dice Rolling and Sanity Points
Dice Rolling
For every RP post made, you must roll one twenty-sided die per character you are playing. So, if you only have one character then you only roll once. Here is a quote of how dice rolling on RPA works; simply take out the spacing:
This mod uses the standard AdX+B notation where
A = the number of dice to roll (1 if not present)
X = the number of faces on the dice
B = represents a modifier, usually a + or - but also a divides or multiply.
I also need it to do certain things like, only show the sum/result of the roll or show all the die results and the sum of the roll. I also wanted the ability to do open rolls, e.g. if you roll 6, six sided die, you keep rerolling any dice that come up a 6.
So, basically, I have concocted three different bbcodes in one product:
[roll]1d4[/roll ] - for rolling and showing only the results or sum
[rollv]1d4[/rollv ] - for rolling and seeing the result of each dice as well as the sum
[rollo]1d4[/rollo ] - for open rolls
Each of these takes and optional label for the roll, to be included in the tag after the '=' sign, e.g. [roll0] and so forth. It is, however, optional as the actual notation for the roll is displayed before the results in the final posting.
So, for example, you can enter rolls like the following:
[roll]4d6[/roll ] to get the sum of 4 six sided die.
[roll]d%[/roll ] for a percentage roll (same as 1d100)
[roll]4d6b3[/roll ] to roll 4 six sided dice and only sum the "best" three results
This will show dice in your post with a number that is only actually important to me. You see, I will make a roll outside of the game with a number only I will ever see to configure what your roll meant. Your roll can mean a variety of things and below are examples:
I actually have a table laid out for me tell me what each number combination comes out to to decide who gets what thus giving a variety of outcomes and surprise to myself and the players.
However, the rolls for my own character will not be a secret and those dice will be visible in my posts. Please, do not confuse them for GM rolls.
Also, dice roll result are controlled by me and only me. So, if I state your character received the result of "monster," then it will be me controlling the monster, not you, etc. The results are just to show why certain events are happening and which character got what.
If the RPA dice rolling system doesn't work for you, then use this.
Sanity Points
Each character gets a set of their own sanity points, which you may also compare to health points. Someone's sanity, generally, will start off as "sane", which I shall determine upon reading your character sheet.
How sanity points are taken away will vary from character to character simply because not everyone handles certain situations in the same manner.
Example 1:
Someone who was raised on the streets would be able to handle more insane shit than someone who was a pampered princess.
Example 2:
Someone who has a fear of spiders would lose more sanity points in a room filled with spiders than someone who actually has spiders as pets and finds them amazing.
So, I will determine the base of your sanity points off of your character sheet; the highest amount that will be given is twenty points. You cannot gain these back. Once you are out of sanity points your character is dubbed insane and is highly likely to die due to misjudgment of some sort, or kill someone by mistake. You do not want to become insane.
Ways to lose your sanity points vary. If you character faces something they have an immense fear of then they are likely to lose sanity points is one example.
Only I can take give and take away sanity points. I will NOT be unfair and keep my characters sane. I know their fears and what they can handle and if they go insane in this RP, then so be it. If all of my characters die, then I will simply only post GM posts for those whom are leftover.
PLEASE USE THIS EXACT CODE. I DID NOT MAKE MY CHARACTER SHEETS PRETTY LOOKING FOR YOU TO RUIN THEM.
And I know that it may be a bit much, but the better I know your character the better chance I have at making this a scary campaign.

Hey, the name's Howl. Howl Osborne to be exact but that doesn't really matter right
now, does it?
So, I'm a... I guess you could say resident at this place called Mythos Dormitory. For
some weird reason they chose me to advertise this place properly.. HA! Are they in
for a shock. Only come here if you seek out adventure and don't mind being scared
shitless just don't tell them I told ya that, a'right? That might get me kicked out and
my folks would be ticked. So keep this between you and me.
I mean... it looks nice and all but it's a bummer. It's pretty much a place parents send
their kids so someone else takes care of them and they'll still go to school. It'd be kinda
sad if you didn't go to school being as all the schools are right across the street! Ironic
huh? You'd think it'd be on some street with a lame name like "School St." too, right?
Wrong. It's on Walnut Road... I'd honestly prefer School St. Anyway...
There's three buildings on campus. Two actual dorms then the main building. Where
you go is based off of your sex and the availability. Like... if you're a girl you go to the
left in the girl's dorm, the right the boy's, get it? The middle is the main office with the
office, der, and a library for some dumb reason. The dorm buildings have uh... I believe
it's what? Three flights? Originally the older kids had the top flight cause they're "cooler"
but the office got fed up with it so if there's an available room you got it! That simple.
Even if they put a little ten year old kid with some nineteen year old, they didn't care.
Oh, I forgot. It's for "all ages". Pretty stupid, huh? Anyway... I'm making this shitty
place sound freakin' sweet! They must be proud of me.
Now... wanna know what's wrong with it? Well... besides the stuck up bitches 'round
the place and the crappy office workers... they say it's haunted. Now, I'm not one to
believe in that crap but I can't help but get suspicious, ya know? I mean, maybe
they are hiding something in the place or maybe people just wanna get us all riled
up. Either way... there's something wrong with it especially on the top floor. Thus far,
in my... four years? of living here, four kids have committed suicide and three were
found dead somewhere round campus. Creepy huh? They can't figure out why.
Well, it's YOUR choice'ta believe me or not and your parents choice'ta have your
ass here. If ya see me around, wave.

Reason: Updatezzzzzzzzz
Birthday July 5th. Age 24. Gender Female. Race Caucasian, mostly Scottish and English. Blood type A+. Appearance
No matter what Boots is wearing, she is always seen in her pair of signature combat boots. It is a rarity to see her without them and even then it‘s usually because she took them off to clean around the house. Ever since she was twelve years old she has worn these same boots given to her by her brother, as well as a rainbow stud on her right ear in the upper cartilage. She has six piercings in left ear and two in her right. Usually she wears oversized hoodies to hide her body, namely her rather wide hips, though her legs tend to be visible, especially during the summer when she wears short sun dresses or shorts that the hoodie covers. Currently her black hair is long, though she plans on cutting it soon to the short spikes she used to have. Her bottom lip is significantly thicker than her upper lip.
Sexuality Lesbian. Occupation Babysitter and a preschool teacher. Personality
If anyone was asked to describe Boots in one word it would be “mother”. All she ever cares about is taking care of those around her no matter how horrible they treat her, even if it means she must push her own needs to the side for awhile. This precise aspect of her is why Howl is always found around her and has stayed by her side since childhood, because he is the voice of reason that reminds her to take care of herself and how not all people are good inside.
She is quite the airhead and is extremely gullible, almost falling for anything said to her. It is very rare that Boots will not fall for a trick, even if it was already done to her before.
Boots absolutely adores children and will defend them with her life even if she has never met them before. In general, she can be highly defensive with certain scenarios, though she rarely voices it because she chooses to avoid conflict. She purposely avoids serious conversations because she feels an argument is bound to ensue.
Likes: Children (in the motherly sense), sweets, flowers, nature, and rainbows. Dislikes: The dark, mean people, homophobes, her mother, being alone, tart food, bitter food, and she fears almost anything. Habits: She sucks on her lower lip when she‘s scared or nervous and sometimes tugs on her hair for the same reason.
Diseases None that she is aware of. Abilities/talents Cooking, baking, cleaning, sewing, knitting… anything else the typical housewife/stay at home mother does. History
Spoiler: Because it really long
Long before Boots began wearing her signature boots and gained the nickname she uses today, she was known simply as Holly Hendrickson the flower child. She ran around the park in her cute, frilly sundresses examining the flowers or protecting ladybugs from being squished alongside her brother Fredrick, also known as Fred.
Fred and Holly were rarely seen apart, even though there was a seven year age difference that separated their mentalities. No matter what, Fred stayed by his younger sister even if that meant his friends did fun things without him, including amusement parks. He insisted that a little sister always needs their big brother by their side to protect them from the evils of the world, so it was his duty to be near her at all times. This annoyed some of his companions, but as the years passed they accepted this.
One of the few times they were apart was when Holly met Howl. They were at a park and Fred had left momentarily to get the two of them some treats from the ice cream man when a bully decided to trick Holly into thinking the flower she was cooing at was going to bite her head off. Immediately she fell for the ruse and began crying, terrified of the flower that had never harmed her before. In strutted the small Howl, who whammed the bully in the back of the head with a swift kick of his foot. This stunned the boy and he ran off. From then on, Howl vowed the same oath her brother Fred had; he would always be by her side to protect her.
Fred loved having Howl around with them and thought their relationship was adorable, though Howl was sometimes jealous of the older boy. They went on their adventures and all was fine until Holly, now known as Boots, turned fifteen.
Her mother found out what the majority of the world already knew: Boots was a lesbian. Being a strict Christian mother, she detested the idea, especially since it meant her only daughter would not breed children the way she wanted her to. She screamed at the girl and beat her severely, sending her to her room until she would admit how wrong she was, but it was the one thing Boots refused to back down from; she didn‘t understand what she was doing wrong.
Howl tried to get inside of the house to save her, but he couldn‘t get passed her mother, so he called up Fred, who was twenty-two and attending college now. He immediately returned home to save his sister only to get into an intense argument with his mother. Nothing he said phased her. No matter what he did she still believed her daughter was a horrible sinner and didn‘t deserve to be treated like a human being.
He disappeared shortly after that. A week later they found he had committed suicide and left a note, "I'm not willing to live in a world where people cannot love whomever they want to love." However, this only further enraged their mother and sent Boots into despair. Her mother stormed into her room tearing up every rainbow object in sight, all of which were given to Boots by Fred; he thought it was a nice and cute way to tell his sister “I accept you and I still love you“. Boots tried to stop her, but she only managed to hide the rainbow stud that was pierced into her ear by covering it with her hair to at least keep one momento from her deceased brother.
For weeks after that, she locked herself in her room and refused to see anyone. The lights were always off, despite her fear of the dark, and she held tightly onto the remains of a rainbow octopus Fred had given to her when they went to the fair only a week before their mother found out about her. She barely ate. The only reason she got out at all was because Howl finally managed to get into the house and unlocked her door.
She was sent to a boarding school so that her mother never had to see her again. Afterwards, Boots moved with Howl to Mythos Complex, believing nothing could possibly be worth than her mother‘s scorn.
I still have to read from the Character Sheet down.
I'll work on a Character sheet in the mean time. The old Dice roller is no longer working, and since I am having a hard time recalling the new Dice system, I asked Naz if he could tell it to me again, or link me. If not, I'll try searching again for it.
Edit: Here we go! Got it!
This mod uses the standard AdX+B notation where
A = the number of dice to roll (1 if not present)
X = the number of faces on the dice
B = represents a modifier, usually a + or - but also a divides or multiply.
I also need it to do certain things like, only show the sum/result of the roll or show all the die results and the sum of the roll. I also wanted the ability to do open rolls, e.g. if you roll 6, six sided die, you keep rerolling any dice that come up a 6.

So, for example, you can enter rolls like the following:
[roll]4d6[/roll ] to get the sum of 4 six sided die.
[roll]d%[/roll ] for a percentage roll (same as 1d100)
[roll]4d6b3[/roll ] to roll 4 six sided dice and only sum the "best" three results

Birthday May 15th Age 22 Gender Female Race Caucasian Blood type O negative Appearance
Ellie (that which she is mostly known as) is creatively unique. She has a child's imagination, yet a grown up's brains. Characteristics an artist would have, but she is gentler than that. Sexuality Hetrosexual, so straight. Occupation she currently attends a college to become a vetrinarian but works part time as a waitress at a local restaurant as well as at the humane society. Personality animal lover of course, but she's also a bit daring and is always up for the challenge. She doesn't give up. And though she can be hard and rough sometimes, there's a soft and gentle side to her that will rarely be shown.
Likes: Haunted houses, smoothies, chocolate, sour candy, and her pet cat named Snickers, which she named after her favorite candy.
Spoiler: SNICKERS
Dislikes: being alone, therefore she has Snickers. Habits: she looses focus sometimes, getting distracted by some things. Diseases None Abilities/talentsShe is actually quite the sketch artist, and at first, wanted to persue being an artist, but her love for animals was to strong. History
Born in the same town she now attends college, she grew up as a sensitive child. On her third birthday, her mother passed away, and Ellie became more sensitive around the house... She attended junior and high school, and found the black, soaking wet kitten she now calls Snickers when she was a sophomore in high school. She later graduated with a 4.0 GPA, and was given the abundent list of colleges that she could get in. But she couldn't leave her father all alone... so she stayed in her hometown college, which she currently attends. Sadly her father passes away from a sickness which he has had since his childhood, and Ellie was then alone, for her mother's side of the family was a Never-talk-about-it subject, as well as her father's side. She later sold the house and moved into Mythos Complex. She now has Snickers and herself. Although she recently has taken in a shy 13 yr. old boy (played by Zatory Master) named Keito Jr. Defam, for a friend of hers.

-S.A.
Birthday December 28th Age 26 Gender Male Race Eurasian. Apollo received gifts from very mixed origins, but what shows through most is his Thai/Italian heritage. Blood type AB+ Appearance
Apollo is a man of rather simple tastes, if he may say so himself. His clothes were typically subtle, but stylish and often nicely tailored. He prefers to keep his hair cut short so that it's neat and out of the way, and his face is typically very clean shaven, as he isn't very fond of having facial hair due to the discomfort. One defining feature had always been his rectangular glasses. He would be blind without them, but he'd decided it would be better to be made fun of than be blind. Since puberty, he's stood at a 6'2" and weighing in a grand total of 145lbs - just above the "under weight" limit. Not that he didn't want to gain weigh, he simply couldn't. As a teenager, he'd often get called a vampire due to his pale skin and dark hair and eyes, but his thin limbs somewhat ruined any chance of him being seen as dangerous. Little did anyone know that he liked to keep a gun on his body when he could.
Sexuality Straight, although he does get mistaken for being gay due to the close attention paid to his attire. Occupation Accountant Personality
To those he doesn't know, Apollo is often mistaken as a cold, indifferent man. In reality, he's simply just quiet. Though he has a cordial personality, he also has a quiet demeanor and prefers not to start conversations with people he doesn't already know. He can often be found staring at nothing, as he spends the majority of time inside his own mind, which he prefers over the real world. Underneath a cautious exterior, however, lies an old brother with a rather protective side and a wallflower just dying to break away from the mold and live.
Likes: Classical music, stringed instruments, philosophy and logic, math and sciences, clever individuals, five course dinners, expensive suits. Dislikes: Has qualms against any animals capable of causing severe harm (see: spiders, snakes, etc.), stupidity/ignorance, small talk, fast food. Habits: Often gets lost in space, has a tendency to lose focus and wander off (or stay in a place for too long), nervous habit of moving hands and fingers, often paces when frustrated, has a hard time concentrating with too much noise.
Diseases None currently known. Abilities/talents Numbers, recalling details (photographic memory), keeps a level head during stress, picking locks, marksmanship. History
Apollo James Simmons was born on a cold December night, the first child of Adam Smith and Elaine Simmons, as well as their last. Not that his parents didn't love him, mind you, but he wasn't a "planned pregnancy." As fate would have it, his parents were young at the time. Elaine had turned become an adult just before she became a mother and his father, unprepared for the responsibility of having a child simply walked out. Elaine Simmons wasn't prepared, either. She was still driving the car she'd received when she was 16 - an ancient Grand AM with one working door and a hole in the floor of the back seat. She worked as a measly waitress at a local breakfast joint, and her $2.50/hour+tips job was barely making enough to support herself, let alone a baby. So she did what she could to survive. She told herself that there was no shame in prostitution if you were desperate - and she was desperate. As Apollo morphed into a toddler, then later a child, and eventually a preteen, he became smart. He knew his mother couldn't support him, so he did her the favor of running away. When she was busy "working," he would often take something from whatever man she'd brought home for the night. Watches, vintage rings, designer drugs - they sold for hefty prices if you found people desperate enough. By the time Apollo was a teenager, he had enough money to travel to the city, where he allowed himself to become a ward of the state. He was never adopted. People wanted babies, they wanted children they could mold into good people. No one wanted a gangly 13 year old boy who was going through God knew what. "He'd just be trouble. He wouldn't be worth it," people said. That was okay with Apollo. He'd seen what it was like to be poor, to be desperate, to have to struggle to make ends meet; he vowed that he was never going to be that way. He'd always been a wallflower - always observing, never participating - a "freak." People didn't care for him, and that gave him all the time and space he needed to graduate valedictorian, and eventually, summa cum laude with top honors. Though he could have easily lived in a posh, upscale apartment in the heart of the city, he preferred to find a cheap, homely place that would serve as a reminder as to why he couldn't settle for less. Since he ran away, he'd excommunicated his mother. Either she didn't know that he'd found an apartment a block away from hers, or she didn't care. That was alright. From here, he could keep something of an eye on his mother if he wanted to, just to make sure she was still alright.

Birthday September 23
Age 26 Gender Male Race Caucasian, possibly Grecian ancestry. Blood type O+ Appearance
Stands at 5"10 and about 150-ish lbs. It is an incredible rarity to see Dan without his ball cap whether inside a building or not he hardly ever takes it off. He has never been overly concerned with having a great bod but he has an extremely high metabolism. His wardrobe is comprised of light clothes he tries to stay away from heavy blacks and greys.
Sexuality Heterosexual
Occupation Writer for a comedic television show Personality
Dan is the fun loving type, who tries to see the humor in everything. His motto in his adult years has been pretty simplistic: to always remain positive and upbeat, this attitude sometimes comes off as idealistic and even naive. He is pretty compulsive and often makes decisions from emotional impulse instead of logically thinking through, most often his most driving impulse is having fun.
Likes: Making people laugh, excitement, Magnum P.I, folk music, and spicy food
Dislikes: Airplanes those things are terrifying!! Heights, proud people, not being dealt with honestly, and drinking. Habits: He sometimes repeats what other people say mimic like, or tries to finish their sentences. Also taps his foot way to frequently.
Diseases None Abilities/talents He is quick with his tongue, played baseball for his high school years History
Even as a toddler Daniel knew that life wasn't meant to be traveled along in a mundane fashion but rather was to be enjoyed. This philosophy resulted in the young Daniel jumping from the roof of his family's two level home. The rush of falling was enjoyable but the landing, oh that landing. The feeling of hitting the ground so hard. That experience didn't shake the ideal of living a life of fun but it certainly put a fear of heights in the young lad.
His school years were spent being the class clown and average grades. He made friends easily enough and certainly enjoyed putting smiles on faces. His ability to make others laugh even got him out of a few perhaps rough patches during high school. Accidentally kissing another guy's girl incidentally makes people angry. He was only sixteen when the car accident happened. His father, holding to the same enjoying life to the fullest mentality thought it was wise to get piss drunk before driving home from work after a promotion. Truthfully Daniel does what he can to keep that dark time out of the limelight in his memories. He can remember the dark clothes, the coffin, the funeral, and the tears. He promised his mother he wouldn't follow in those footsteps. When graduation came around Daniel had already applied and been accepted into a college.
He took arts courses with a theatrical focus, the humor of it all is that he didn't even finish. He started doing stand up at some local clubs and was approached by a network after one of his sets. Although he couldn't imagine doing anything else, writing comedy isn't a lucrative business. Despite the stories the Mythos Complex was affordable, and was close to the network office.
Ooh, I can see there might be tension between the two guys already. This is looking great so far. Just need to finish up my character. I think all the coding threw me off...

And you didn't interrupt putting NPCs :P I'm in the process of copying and pasting them in between things, ha ha.
@SilverAce
Please use the coding I have provided. I know it's a rather snobbish policy, but I refuse to read character sheets unless the coding I offered is used. Thank you.

Anselm Moved into the Mythos Complex with one of his students who was by all means also his lover. The boy was 21 years old and Had a particular interest in older men much to Anselm's surprise. Despite being over twice the young man's age Anselm became attached to him and vice versa. The time they spent together was filled with talk of philosophy and debates over historical events. The boy shared so many interests with Anselm that despite their original intention to sustain a relationship simply for their own sexual needs, they soon began to fall in love with each other. The Boy being of a young more liberal mind, wanted their relationship to be a more public one while Anselm wished to wait for some time before deciding. Unfortunately it was out of their hands.
Another student of Anselm's class whom was graded poorly the previous semester had discovered that the two were lovers and ousted them to the University. Despite Not actually participating with Anselm's class in particular the Boy was immediately expelled and Anselm put under scrutiny. The Scandal was huge and lasted for several weeks before it was determined that despite their relationship being of taboo no rules were actually broken and Anselm was allowed to return to his job. It was far too late though. The boy's family were very conservative and deeply religious and the Boy was disowned by them. Emotionally distraught the Boy went to the only person who had ever loved him. Anselm. In the middle of all that trouble Anselm had told the boy to leave and stay away for awhile til things cooled down.
