Ben walked into the cafeteria room. He wasn't here to eat anything, but rather socialize. Being the social butterfly he was, he sat down at the first table and saw and spoke with a large smile. He looked around and decided to make a conversation with Evelyn.
"Hey there," he chirped, "how are you today?"
"I'm. Alright I guess?" She shrugged, and took in Ben's face. He was rather handsome. "And you?" She asked, as Evan got up, and came back, set down a milk, cereal, and juice in front of Evelyn, having some for himself and Clara as well, and he sat back down next to Clara. Evelyn began to eat.
He smiled brightly at Evelyn. "I'm alright! Thank you for asking. Now may I ask your name?" He tilted his head slightly and observed Evelyn. He began twisting his hair around his finger and humming.
"I'm Evelyn. Sit." She patted the chair next to her and continued to eat. "And you, who are you?"
school
Harper walked into the lunchroom as well, some loose papers, a couple of folders, and a binder in hand. She noticed some kids had already found a seat and were making some small talk. Fun. Yes, fun indeed… She set her backpack down on an empty seat not too far away from Evelyn and Ben, also setting down her music as well. Well… not just her music, but also some notes and stuff. But she preferred to keep loose papers with her music, it made it easier to keep track of them.
Ben looked at the seat next to Evelyn for a moment and then shook his head, smiling politely. "I'm fine right here. My name's Ben, by the way." He looked at Evan and the others. "And you guys? Who are you all?" His voice was still bright and bubbly. He now had his finger against his mouth and swaying his head from side to side.
(Of course! This is moving pretty slow. Just go to the first page and look over the rules, do the character thing, and read up.)
"Hi. I'm Evan." He gave a wave. Clara looked at Ben, scowled at him, and returned to her phone. Evelyn sighed. "That's Clara. She's just pissy."
His smiled pulled downward slightly but went right back up. "That's quite alright." He turned to Evan and waved back "Hi, Evan. It's a pleasure meeting you."
He looked at the people in front of him eating and something quickly flashed by his eyes. His smile faded fast and his lips slightly downturned.
"Pleasure to meet you too." Evan smiled and nodded, as Evelyn looked at him. "Hey Ben, you alright?" She asked, voice tainted with concern.
Jake looked around. " so… how is everyone?"

(Nice characters, Lee.)
Ben's face quickly pulled back up into a smile. "Yeah, I'm just fine!" He smiled and began mumbling to himself. He looked both lost in thought and blank all at the same time.
He looked at Jake and waved. "Hi, I'm Ben, I'm doing alright. How are you?" He extended his hand for a handshake.
Jake shakes his hand, " nice to meet you Ben, im tired as fuck!" yawns and rubs eyes.
Evelyn sighed and grabbed Ben, and pulled him into the seat next to her, and hands him her juice. "Here. It may not be much but hope it helps with whatever is going on with you. Liar. I don't much like liars."
Jake grabbed a cold coffee from his backpack and drinks some of it.

(Okay I'm already lost, where can I jump in?)
(So. Just read the starter. Basically everyone is in the cafeteria. Come in and say hi with the siblings. Ben is wiggin' out. The starter is still important to read tho)
group
Cora backed into the lunchroom, tugging at the pink sleeve of her twin, Karma. While she was ready and raring to go, the other was not.
He looked like he hadn't slept in years, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot, but he was at least making an effort to move his feet. His eyes darted around the room until falling upon a small congregation of people at one of the tables. He was in no way inclined to go and talk to them.
Cora sighed a very heavy sigh, finally letting go of her brother's sleeve. The chain on her skirt's belt jingled when she moved, giving one the feeling that a fairy might have been in the room. She looked across at him, her eyes sparkling sadly, but she didn't say a word as she grabbed a cup of black coffee and left Karma's side to find a seat.
She didn't recognise anyone there, so she was half in mind to sit by herself somewhere, but chattering that drifted over from one of the tables seemed oddly inviting…
Ramona hummed softly again, scribbling in a notebook, chewing her lip. Rhyming was hard. But songs were fun to write, at least.
school
Harper stood up, walking over to Cora. She seemed kind of lonely, with her big sigh. "Hey, you new here?" she asked casually, brushing her feathery brunette hair back behind her shoulder.
group
"I uhm…" Cora jumped a little when the girl had spoken to her. "Yes.. It's nice to meet you." her beautiful smile began growing, the purple of her lipstick making her teeth look even more white than they were. "My name is Cora."
school
"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. Did I scare you? I'm awfully sorry if I did, I just… Sorry, I better stop now, or I'll keep talking forever," Harper started ramble. "But, it's nice to meet you as well, Cora. I'm Harper," she introduced herself, cracking a small, but shy smile.
Jake looked up and his heart started to do jumping jacks. "H-hi my names Jake, but you can call me whatever you want babes." He winked at her in the most flirtatious way ever.
group
A bright flush rose to Cora's cheeks when Jake winked at her, and she averted her long lashed eyes. "Nice to meet you, Harper." her voice was gentle, almost shy, as she looked back at Jake. "It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Cora."
Karma was observing Cora's interactions with the other people, and as soon as that Jake person decided to call her 'babes', he went into defensive brother mode. Though it wasn't a fight he wanted to trouble himself with, not when there was a bunch of people around. For now he would keep quiet and observe some more.
(Heck I'm confused now lmao)
(Everyone's just chattering at lunch)
Jake then made a spot for her next to him, " m'lady always deserves the best seats in the lunchroom." he bowed at her and kissed her hand.
(Oki Imma just)
Everly hummed a vocal warmup as she scribbled notes in her journal. She liked to draw inspiration for characters from the people around her, and the lunchroom was the perfect place for that. Normally, she would have been chattering away, but she was feeling unusually focused.

"Thanks…" Harper replied, glancing at Jake. What were his intentions? Was he… flirting with Cora? Trying to break the awkwardness that had developed during those whole, what, ten seconds(?), she cleared her throat quietly. "So, uh, Cora, what school did you come from?"
