The Middle-earth College Life AU meme

Congrats, you've been accepted to college / university! Or maybe you work there? Maybe you're even the President or a Dean of studies! Either way - there's classes to attend or teach, parties to go to, and fraternities/sororities to belong to. Cheer for the sports team, and don't forget about extra curricular activities.

1. Comment with a character, with a sentence or two to explain how they fit into this AU
2. Format is flexible! Action, Phones, IMs, etc. (It's a meme, do what is most fun for you!)
3. ???
4. Profit.

Shire institute of Culinary Arts: Aspiring chefs, look no further. A wide variety of specialty degrees are available, but it's best known for their potato program. Dorms are said to be "cozy", but the meal plan is next to none. The typical "freshman 15" here is expanded to the "freshman 30," but no one seems to mind.	Rivendell University and Teaching Hospital: You might know that Rivendell's medical program it top notch, but you might not know that it also has a robust music program as well. It boasts a diverse student body and easy admittance process. The dorms are next to none, with full meal plan, entertainment, and laundry service.	University of Caras Galadhon: This university is so exclusive, that only students and staff know how to even get to the campus. Needless to say, their athletic teams never have home games. Extracurricular activities include boating and archery. All dorms begin on the 10th floor.
Woodland U: Literally spelled Woodland "U" because half their applicants can't spell "university." All students are required to be on one of the athletics teams. Known for its party scene. Their rival is the nearby Erebor Trade School. It's motto is "We will endure" because many of it's students stay much longer than the usual four year plan.	Erebor Trade School: Anyone hoping to become a craftsman or jeweler aspires admittance to this school. Tuition used to be rather high before a massive campus fire and a change of administration. Remodeling is ongoing. Erebor encourages drinking, even though half its students are miners.	Gondor Military Academy: Used to be a more prestigious institution until the neighborhood appeal changed by the nearby Mt. Doom's expansion and construction. Recently subject to rumors about the president losing touch with the needs of the students.
Rohan Agricultural College: Probably the smallest and least expensive school in Middle-earth. Sister school to Gondor Military Academy, and known for its equestrian program and rural location. The dorms and meal plans here are said to be lacking.	Mt Doom College: Recently had a resurgence in numbers, Mt. Doom is known for its aggressive recruiting policy and strict dress code. Now has a campus at Orthanc, which used to be an independent institution.	Two Trees Seminary: This university can boast that it's faculty are all at the top of their fields. Known for it's idyllic location, Two Trees has a very strict moral code, but most students who enroll never leave campus. The Dormitory is located in the building simply known as "The Halls."

I- [ yes, but... wait, but... /sigh

Or, Canne's perpetual reaction to the Elrondion twins in a nutshell ] Thank you.

I'd rather you didn't though. If you keep showing up people might think I do teach you, and I can't TA for a student I want to date, it's against policy. [ He's not even noticing what he's saying until it's already far out off his mouth and he can't take it back. ]

Sorry!

[ It is squeaked out, high-pitched, and Cannestad flushes a deeper red that Elladan has likely ever seen and before making a beeline towards the door. ]

[ Elladan freezes, staring wide-eyed in surprise at the words, and its only Cannestad's movement towards the door that snaps him out of his paralysis ]

Whoa whoa!

[ Remember that he's also on track team? Well let him remind you by beating you to that door Cannestad ]

You can't just say things like that and leave Canne!

[ the joker's mask down Elladan looks, for once, serious ]

You... you mean that?

[ Stupidly athletic hot stupid twin brother. Canne almost wants to cry of frustration, thwarted and strapped, stuck with stupid words he couldn't help himself but say. He tries to make it past Elladan to the door, once, but it's only a half-hearted attempt. ]

It doesn't matter, Elladan. Just forget it.

[ Elladan stops him with a hand on his arm, and he's... almost hesitant and shy in return ]

It matters, Cannestad. It matters a whole lot to me, okay? Did you mean that?

Of course I did. Damn it, haven't I done enough stupidly embarrassing things for one day?

[ He honestly wouldn't be hating himself so much if he hadn't meant it. He's a terrible, terrible person for this. ]

Look, nothing has to be different. It's fine; I can deal with it, Dan.

[ He doesn't want to lose their tentative friendship over something so stupid as this. ]

Nothing? [ A long searching look and then Elladan steps right into Cannestad's personal space ]

But Canne... what if I want things to change? [ softly but his eyes are earnest ] Because if you meant it, Canne... then I mean this, too.

[ Going to try for a shy kiss yep ]

[ Canne doesn't know what to make of the words, and is frozen still when Elladan leans in for a kiss, but once the other's lips touch his nothing else matters. His hands come up to tangle in Elladan's hair as he draws him into a deeper kiss.

In for a penny, in for a pound, after all. And if he's going to have this once before he loses it all, he might as well make it good. ]

[ Elladan makes a happy noise and his own hands come up to pull Cannestad in close, all too happy to kiss back. ]

Mm, is that a yes, Canne?

You haven't asked me a question yet. [ Well, not one that he can answer, really. But if it means they should keep kissing? Then, yeah, he wants it. He wants to keep doing this. ]

But I don't really want to stop. [ That blush is spreading so far, now, Canne wouldn't be surprised if it hits his toes. ]

You blush so prettily I wonder how far down it goes~ [ Because he can't quite stop being a troll, even in a serious situation like this ]

But let me rectify that then - Canne, will you go out with me?

[ He takes a half-hearted swipe at Elladan, but it does nothing for his blush. ] Yes.

Yes, I will go out with you. [ He ducks his head again, looking away ]

[ He whoops with joy and crushes Cannestad in a bear hug, lifting him off his feet a little ]

He said yes! He said yes, 'Roh!

[ Sleepily and grumpily the answer comes from the bedroom, Elrohir sticking a head out, still fever flushed ]

I heard you. Heck, I think the whole neighbourhood heard you. Pass me the aspirin, would you? And then go and kiss your boyfriend and shut up and let me sleep.

[ Cannestad's face ratchets up to a possibly unhealthy shade of red before wordlessly reaching out and tossing the aspirin towards Elrohir. ] Sorry.

[ His voice is real quiet and he starts to inch towards the door. ]

I won't disturb your sleep any longer.

[ A sleepy wave of thanks as he catches the aspirin ]

Thanks for the notes Canne. Don't mind me - you'd better not go anywhere or 'Dan'll whine at me all afternoon. Gnite. [ And with that Elrohir vanishes back to bed ]

Ooops [ Elladan grins unrepentently ] He'll get me for waking him up. Still! He's got some good advice. C'mere. We'll go sit in the kitchen and you can have that hot chocolate before it gets cold.
