Dame Adorabelle's Academy for the Magically Gifted and Talented (2017)
A Centralia AU of sorts...The “Dame Adorabelle's” universe features most of the same characters as normal Centralia, but as middle- and high-schoolers attending a boarding school in the small town of Havensborough.
Characters
- Princess Alice – Me, of course. The 13-year-old monarch of the Principality of Centralia, sent to a boarding school to hone her magical abilities. Leads a clique known as the "Band of Brats" who cause all sorts of trouble around the academy.
- Anonus – The Princess's best friend and confidant.
- Tiny Jane – A young but adept witch who enjoys pulling pranks on her fellow students.
- Imicow – An older student who enjoys rock music and boobs.
- Ash Upquark – A friend of the Princess, though decidedly not one of her fellow Brats. Takes school and its rules very seriously.
- Miss Alisha – A student teacher at the school, dorm mother of Princess Alice's dormitory, and perhaps more importantly, the only grown-up the Princess trusts. Is secretly an avatar of The Handler.

Although it's been nearly 3 years since I formally retired from the Academy, I do still visit frequently, in part because I continue to maintain a private laboratory there. In the interest of privacy, I have taken some...unconventional steps to hide my laboratory's entrance. It's not exactly inconspicuous, but I doubt most people who pass by it are aware of what they're looking at.

I've been experimenting with memory spells as of late. It hasn't quite worked out. This morning I was unable to remember where I'd placed this very diary! I turned my study inside out searching for it, though I was eventually successful.
Given that my memory experiments are far from complete, I feel it prudent to commit certain secrets to writing, lest I lose them permanently. I shall start with the location of my laboratory: Although the administrative building does not "officially" have a basement, there is indeed a lower level beneath the main structure. However, this cellar—my laboratory—is not accessible from the building's main floor, but rather, must be accessed through [Editor's note: the remainder of this page has been blacked out, presumably by Dame Adorabelle herself after completing her memory experiments.]

Well, the time has finally come to leave the school I've founded behind. We've come a long way from the small private school I established 96 years ago to the sprawling academic campus we have now. We've educated witches, wizards, and warlocks of all backgrounds, including several generations of royalty. I wouldn't trade my experiences here for anything.
I finally moved the last of my belongings out of the laboratory this morning. It's a bit sad seeing the place so empty...perhaps someday it will be put to good use once more, but for now it remains a vacant reminder of what once was.

It's finally happened: I have the perfect place for the Band of Brats' secret clubhouse! You see, while I was wandering around today wondering where we could hide a clubhouse, a little birdy came by with a note for me! It turns out there's an abandoned section of the school that's only accessible through a hatch in the belly of the Crystal Dragon in the courtyard. I don't know how this went unnoticed for all this time, but judging from the cobwebs nobody's been down there in years. Nothing a little bit of cleaning can't fix. I'm not entirely sure where the hatch leads, but the hidden room seems to be somewhere underneath the Administrative Building...
First name is... possibly irrelevant.
Also, fwiw, if this happens I will make an account (or two I guess?) on the server but I can't really convince myself I'd actually post much if at all, so it might be best not to count me toward the "handful" quorum.
