Dark Crytal/Age of Resistance Human/High School AU

HEAR ME OUT Thorn Hill Ridge Academy (THRA)

PTA moms:

Mayrin Vapra (PTA head, connections to the School Board)

Fara Stonewood

Argot Grot (Deet’s grandma)

Laesid Drenchen (a doctor)

Mera Spriton (Kylan’s aunt)

Seethi Dousan

Ethri Sifa (teen mom who thinks she needs to go to these meetings as she’s a parent now)

Ordon is a cop doing a teen outreach program or a school security guard, haven’t decided which The kids:

The Vapra Sisters:

Seladon- Prep, senior, class president, debate team, preparing to be valedictorian, secretly enjoys metal

Tavra- Prep/jock, junior, on several sports teams, skater by day but still gets top grades, has a secret girlfriend, hangs out with different kids at school than her home life suggests

Brea- Prep/nerd, freshman, excited to be at school and spend her time reading books her reading level, makes friends with the librarian.

Ordon’s Son:

Rian- Oldest of three. Jock. Junior. On several sports teams. Expected to go into army after and then be a cop like his father. Would rather just make out with people and go to college. Goes out with Mira when she’s not going out with Gurjin. Best friend is Gurjin. They are NOT gay, they only kissed two times and he’s only touched his dick once! They’re just really close friends man! Probably the best friends in the whole world, man! It’s not wrong to love your best friend!

Mira- Jock. Junior. On several sports teams. Slacks at school but it’s fine cause she’s going to join the army anyway. Family has higher expectations of her. Can’t decide if she should go out with Rian or Gurjin and the social drama she brings so she can date both (but never at the same time that would be, like, mean) is legendary.

The Drenchen Siblings:

Naia- Junior. Jock. On the swim team. Parents want her to go to medical school, twin sister to Gurjin. Best friends since elementary with Kylan.

Gurjin- Junior. Jock. On all the sports teams as Rian. Parents want him to attend police academy after graduation and he is considering it but he might want to go to college too. Goes out with Mira when Rian isn’t. Best bros with Rian and bro it’s not gay to cherish your best friend and think he’s hot and kiss him when you’re alone right? They’re just bros.

Two younger sisters in middle school.

The Sifa Family is a large family with lots of cousins and second cousins and siblings. They include:

Onica- Junior. Tavra’s secret girlfriend. Skater. Sometimes stoner. Likes to read tarot cards and palms. Witch-core af.

Tae- Junior. Jock. Onica’s best friend. On same sports teams as Tavra. Believes in Onica’s prophecies.

Ethri- Senior. Had a baby with Staya and now she’s a parent? Which is why she’s too busy for school work so why don’t teachers understand that? And isn’t the PTA supposed to be like, so Parents and Teachers can talk to each other? Not like, these weird conversations with these judgy moms?

Staya- Unrelated but Ethri’s baby daddy. 18 year old drop out who has a van.

Freshly transferred to the school is:

Deet- Sophmore. Homeschooled/”Unschooled” by her two dads on a farm on edge of town until recently. Very bright so it wasn’t just her Grandma being a teacher and on the PTA that got her in. Would love to make some new friends because she really likes talking to people, but doesn’t get why everyone needs to split up into cliques and be so mean to one another. Makes friends with the janitor.

There is also:

Kylan: Junior. Band geek. Naia’s best friend since elementary school. Really into comic books and drawing potential covers for his potential folk metal band’s first album, that is if he can gather enough people who know what folk metal is first.

Amri: Junior. Not trying to be in any clique. Deet’s cousin. Wants to be a doctor like Naia but a homeopathic one and because of this they butt heads in science class a lot.

Staff

Principal: Aughra

At least one of the teachers is: Argot

Teachers: Mystics (Mr. Su, Mr. Sol Mr. Swim Coach San, Archery Coach Va, etc.)

The janitor: Hup

School Board Committee:

The Skeksis: Seemingly ancient and wealthy patrons of the school but are *record scratch* still aliens. Still sucking the souls out of teens. One day Rian is skipping practice to makeout with MIra but she’s not there to meet him at their usual spot and when he sees her going somewhere else he follows her to the detention room, which is fair enough, she probably just didn’t have the chance to tell him she had detention, until he peeks through the window (you know the sort with criss cross over the glass) and sees the members of the board sucking out Mira’s soul. Now it’s up to Rian to convince his fellow students and their parents to what the board is up to. But with everyone separated into different cliques and family ties, how will they ever unite to save themselves and their school?

The Garthim: Security guards approved by the board to quell the rumors that are spreading around the school. Actually robots.

Years later:

Jen is a teenager living on the edge of a big empty town. One day he finds out his math tutor being put into an ambulance and on his dying breath tells Jen to go to Aughra and get the key to the old abandoned high school to save the world. Aughra gives him the key and Jen goes poking around the abandoned high school.

There he meets Kira, a girl his age, and her dog, Fizzgizz who explore the building with him. Together they escape the clutches of the barely hanging in there school board and their still operating robot security guards. The key Aughra gave Jen was also the key to the spaceship that is also the central campus building. The remaining Mystic teachers and their school board counterparts fuse and thank Jen and Kira for helping them and then activate their spaceship home. Jen and Kira run out of the campus and watch the school blast off into space from the overgrown football field.

{{{ OOC: I have been wondering IF anyone new & old to The Dark Crystal fandom had come across THIS mother f-ing

G E M

I remember when this album dropped, my reaction to it at the time was...

M I N D B L O W N

And now after picking up skekGra as my main skeKSis birb I am thoroughly amused. I’d like to point out ...

➽ "Trip Like I Do" uses samples from the Jim Henson film The Dark Crystal The album “V e g a s” was released in 1997 nearly twenty somethin’ years ago!

I’d like to think ... that non-conformist, fallen UrSkek telling the story, enchanting you, IS GraGoth our exiled conqueror reciting the history verses writing it -story teller.

&&& speaking of skekGra and urGoh

“ We had a strong image of these two; they're trying to look into the future but they're not tapped into Thra, so the way they do that is by doing a large amount of drugs. So we thought of them as very much Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, except one was on uppers and the other was on downers. “ J.A.

Now if THAT isn’t a full circle

of an abiranariba

of INSPO

I don’t know what ISss~ }}}
