ATTENTION YOUTHS!

[interpersonal]

Sorry, guys. There's another one of these posts. But this one concerns young/teenaged characters!

As you may or may not know, we have a Youth Center! It was created by Bonnie Bennett in February 2016.

Because Wonderland is mean, Bonnie disappeared a year after that. Ever since, Elena and Billy have been running it in her honor (with the contribution of others, of course!), so that the younger folks can have a safe space and have fun. I decided to do a little revamp in hopes of kickstarting this place back up so that everyone can have new CR opportunities. HERE'S WHERE YOU COME IN.

Despite the fact Elena and Billy have taken to looking after the center, they are not teens; they mostly oversee it and make sure everything runs smoothly. The center is divided into various areas, and if your character is interested in either maintaining or helping out in one of those areas, they are free to do so! Please also feel free to express interest regardless of how many volunteer! Responsibilities can be shared, and this space is for everyone.

Well, sort of everyone. This is specifically for the younger crowd in Wonderland. That said, if an older character ever wants to teach something (anything!) at the youth center, this would be great.

Go here for more details, and let me know in this ooc post if your character is interested and what they are interested in!

Kimberly can take over the ice cream bar! As ice cream is very important.

[interpersonal]

Excellent! Elena and Kimberly bonded via ice cream, so Elena would know it is in very good hands.

[meanestgirl]

Yessssss she will take good care of it. /nodnod

[interpersonal]

With great ice cream comes great responsibility. /nodnod

Wendy would totally love to help with the game room. Especially the mostly a bowling alley :)

[interpersonal]

Yay Wendy! I'll be sure to include her, thank you for offering! :)

[like247]

Thank you for this post. I've only just started with a teenager and glad to know about it.

[interpersonal]

Of course! It's been an ongoing thing for a good while, and I cannot take credit for the creativity of its existence, but it never hurts to give reminders of it.

DID SOMEONE SAY ART?????????????

I'm just going to assume Chris will throw Kanji all over the crafts stuff so I'll just preemptively add an addendum of "and Maya". Maya wants to paint ALL THE THINGS and help other people paint. Those coloring books MIGHT go missing pretty quickly though (ALL THEY DO IS TEACH YOU TO STAY IN SOMEONE ELSE'S LINES).

[interpersonal]

alskjd I DEFINITELY THOUGHT OF KANJI AND MAYA

so this pleases me

and look all this means is that maya can get her own coloring books out of the closet to add, can you imagine

[finewithhalf]

Her coloring books will consist of handing out blank notebooks because LINES HOLD YOU BACK MAN

drips paint in a corner near the edges.

[cuteshit]

YES EXACTLY THIS Kanji would put Maya in charge of the ARTS part of ARTS AND CRAFTS. /chinhands

[finewithhalf]

omg they are such a power couple

crusading for artistic freedom with iron fists

[cuteshit]

LEGIT

[cuteshit]

Kanji spends a lot of his time here and already takes it upon himself to keep arts/crafts supplies in stock/available and occasionally does craft workshops! I would love for him to continue doing that/be a bit more vocal about it if other characters are interested in doing artsy stuff with him!

[interpersonal]

YES this would be amazing and was one of the reasons i wanted to make this post, so people know about the really cool things teens are already doing here and join in. i will definitely add kanji officially, though lbr it's a formality since he was already in charge c:

[cuteshit]

Please, he doesn't think of himself as in charge of anything, he just loves spending time there. He loves that there's a space for the younger crowd to hang out, so thanks for that, ladies!

[interpersonal]

Sob, Elena can't take any credit. It was Bonnie's baby, but she's so thrilled that people still use it. And she is looking forward to learning how to knit something that doesn't look hideous. :>

[stereotypicaljock]

If Kimberly's going to be spending time here, then Jason's probably going to want to spend time here also. Watching Kimberly bend over while she scoops stuff I MEAN. Lounge. He can totally handle lounge things.

elena will wisely look in the opposite direction

[plutonicideals]

Honestly Riley helps Maya with the art stuff but she's really just fingerpainting the entire time or making lots of really dumbcute art. She's gonna be like the opposite of her art teacher in the show that basically made ew faces at her artwork the entire time so that everyone knows they're good >:(

[interpersonal]

Elena would say that her art is very expressive and unique, and she'd also have a lil space for Riley's bunnies if she still has them!

[plutonicideals]

Oh, she absolutely does and would gladly put the bunnies there for everyone to play with them if they wanted. She'd be all for that.

[interpersonal]

She's so cute Elena just wants to pinch her cheeks (but of course refrains).

[plutonicideals]

I mean, she probably wouldn't stop Elena.

And then she'd try to do it right back leaving fingerpaint everywhere.

[finewithhalf]

Riley should also make a concerted effort to save the coloring books. SOME PEOPLE LIKE THEM no matter how hard Maya tries to trash them >>

[plutonicideals]

She is. Because some people use them.

Like her.

Ring power for coloring books.

[finewithhalf]

DDDDDDDDDDDDDD:

She plays so dirty.

[plutonicideals]

drastic times call for drastic measures

[finewithhalf]

You'll get yours, Matthews.

[plutonicideals]

bring it on maya hart

Officially, Stefan wants to help out with video games and reconnecting with his lost youth.

Unofficially, he's gonna act as a point person for any older teenager that wants to try underage drinking. If they're gonna do it, they might as well do it with supervision. :x

[interpersonal]

They really will drink anyway, at least this way someone responsible is around to supervise in a way that doesn't seem like supervising!

[moraloutrage]

Ishimaru would be glad to lend a hand to helping take care of the library if needed! And he'd encourage study sessions, because what better activity for young people to take part in?!

[interpersonal]

Ahhh, Elena would love the helping hand, Ishimaru should feel free to lead any study sessions he'd like!

[moraloutrage]

Excellent, he'll be glad to assist!

[naughty_nurse]

Mikan wants to help her fellow classmates, so count her in!

[moraloutrage]

Well said!! Let's work together for the betterment of the youth trapped in this world, Tsumiki-kun!

[drummeintheface]

Greg can't really help with anything but thank you for posting this! I think I knew this was a thing but I forgot haha

[interpersonal]

Aww, well he can still take advantage of all the fun activities offered!! You are very welcome :3

[henrydaniel]

Can Henry help out with library stuff? That's likely where he'd be most of the time anyway!

[interpersonal]

He absolutely can. I think Elena would like him a lot!!
