(Just do your character when it is appropriate and move on to the next one. We don't have to go through the whole Ceremony.)
DIVERGENT RP
Scarlett waited patiently for her name. She wasn’t afraid of the pain of the knife at all, just the looks of realization on her parents’ and siblings’ faces. When Scarlett's name was a finally called, she slit her palm with no hesitation and let the blood drip into the Abnegation bowl. She wiped her hand on her dress, not noticing the blood fade into the background of the fabric.
Jayden brushed her hair out of her face and stood up as she was called. She took a deep breath, then headed up to the bowls. The knife slid easily into her palm, red blood pooling in her hand. She winced a little, looked at her parents sadly, and let the blood drip onto burning coals.
Once Lydia heard her name announced, she looked towards her parents. They gave her a nod, believing that she would stay with them. She gave a grim smile back, still not sure what the future had in store for her.
Lydia walked up to the stage, looking over the bowls. She picked up the knife and sliced her palm, welcoming the pain. She held her hand over the Candor glass, but quickly changed it to be over the Dauntless coals. A couple drops of blood sizzled on the coals, and she could hear the cheering of the Dauntless faction.
Lydia didn't look back to her faction or her parents, and instead sat in an open seat in the Dauntless faction. She wasn't the least bit worried with her choice, and knew she made the right decision.
//do she and Jayden know each other
(how about they do know each other, but only become friends after the ceremony?)
//kk
Jayden nodded at Lydia. They’d met before, and didn’t hate each other. They could’ve been friends but neither ever intimidated the action.
Lydia noticed Jayden, recognizing her from her previous Faction. She nodded back, but took a seat away from her. She continued to watch the Ceremony, cheering with the rest of the Dauntless when someone new joined. Already, within the first fifteen minutes, she felt at home.
Monique stood with several other Erudites, two Candor, one Dauntless, and no Abnegation or Amity. She glanced quickly at Jeanine, but the woman was handing a knife to the next 16 year old.

Adrik left in the middle of the ceremony, quickly taking the train back to the compound and standing by the net, talking to his friend while he waited for the transfers to arrive.
(I'm gonna have Adrik be where Four was, and like helping the initiates down from the net, and he's gonna kinda train the transfers :b)
The Erudite initiates followed the members the whole way to the Erudite library. There, they all gathered in the main lobby in front of Jeanine.
Joining the Abnegation as the last faction to leave the ceremony, Scarlett had trouble blending into the background due to her bright red dress. However, the minute she was introduced to her small but new home, she changed into a grey t-shirt and slacks and pulled her hair into a strict bun, blending into the other members of her faction.
Jayden grinned as she hopped onto the train. She hadn’t been wearing a dress, which was good. The nerves were all gone - replaced by happy excitement.
Monique watched the Dauntless leaping onto the train before she went inside, but hurried to keep up with the rest so Jeanine wouldn't be too cross with her come lesson time. There weren't many transfers, but there weren't that many Erudite-born either. Monique was only one of 6 Erudite-born initiates along with one from Amity, two from Candor, one from Dauntless, and no Abnegation.

Checking his watch, Adrik looked up, announcing to the others who stood by the net.
"Alright, everybody get ready, the initiates should be here any minute."
Lydia looked around at all the Dauntless jumping on the train. She had no hesitation when she did the same. She felt a sense of pride that she actually left Candor. She continued to stand on the train, not bothering to sit down. Then, just a few minutes later, she noticed the Dauntless begin to jump off the train. She looked out the opening and saw a roof. Without a moment of doubt, she jumped, landing on her two feet. Lydia laughed, enjoying the rush of excitement.
(hey, i hope you don't mind, but is it alright if Lydia is the first to jump down to the net? Or at least, the first not-Dauntless-born initiate to jump?)
(Hey so am i the only abnegation? Cause i was thinking Scarlett could be a survivor of the attack on them if we are doin that plot)
(yeah that would be good! I haven't read the series in like, four years, but isn't there one point where some survivors all go to Amity? There we call all meet up. Assuming we all survive lol)
(Lol yeah sure)
//I don’t mind! She was much more excited about it than Jayden anyways xD
Although, realism wise, I think she wouldn’t be the first if there were any dauntless-born?
(wasn't Tris the first to jump? and she was Abnegation-born?)
//oh yeah
Wait are we going with that timeline?
//although tris was also like
Divergent
And kind or crazy tbh
But uh
(lol yeah Tris was crazy. Maybe, if it's alright, I can have Lydia go after a couple of Dauntless-born.)
(oh and I have to go to bed now, so byeee)
//byee
(Lydia can be the first jumper. The girl who wanted to be Tris deleted her account, so it's fine.)
//well yeah, but if we’re still playing in that timelines we can just say ‘the first person to jump was a blonde girl from abegnation’ Andre continue
(ooh yeah I still forgot we were in the same timeline. Okay)
//kk then, rp?
(sorry I have to go to school. It's seven a.m. where I live)
