The Riverside All-Boys and All-Girls boarding schools sit on opposite banks of the Douglas River as it winds through the college town of Marina. About a mile downstream, the river deposits into the Douglas Lake, which is ringed by restaurants, stores, and bars that are frequented by students from all the schools around town.
It is forbidden to cross the bridge to the other school without an adult chaperone. The students are only allowed down to Douglas Lake on Saturdays and are not allowed in the pubs. They must be in their dormitory by ten from Sunday to Thursday; on Fridays and Saturdays, curfew is eleven. Swimming in the river is strictly prohibited.
Students must wear their uniforms during all school hours — a black suit and blue-and-white striped tie for boys, and a black blouse and blue, black, and white plaid skirt for girls.

You are entering your fourth and final year, and you are determined to make it special. Whether you've been breaking rules all your life or you're only just beginning to step out of the box, it's time to start living. For some, it means going out on Friday nights with your four friends and enjoying each other's company as you eat and browse through stores. For others, it means breaking two rules in one by climbing onto the roof and sleeping under the stars. Maybe it means trying to make your name go down in the history of Riverside Academy.
And maybe, just maybe it means finding a way across the river and getting that first taste of forbidden candy.

a
angry at the world
Ever since he lost his younger sister, he hasn't been quite the same. His outlook on life has turned bitter and though he can be rather intimidating to approach, he is fiercely loyal to those close to his heart.
g captivates him with her love for the world he hates, but i surprises him in a good way
h has always been like a brother to him
f irritates him with his shameless flirtation
played by ;; Folly + Zmija
b
bad for the sake of being bad
He does things without any reason, always in search of something more, different, new, better to do. He's unafraid and defiant of rules in general because he feels they confine him.
e is the most beautiful thing he's ever seen, but j doesn't give a damn about anything and he likes that
f's wild streak gives them a lot in common, and they've recently become closer
hates c for how easily he gets attention
played by ;; crescent
c
charming, charismatic, and careless
He is a natural leader, but he doesn't seem to realize it and shirks responsibility. He already catches eyes, but his disregard for everything draws even more attention.
he really likes j because she is funny and cool, but d is so bookish and he wants to help her loosen up
used to be very good friends with f
hates b because he turned f against him
played by ;; Shirogane•}}
d
dreaming of worlds far away
With her nose buried in a book or tucked under her arm more often than not, this daydreamer, though very booksmart, prefers her imagination to harsh reality. She has high ideals and her expectations, raised by the heroes she reads about, can make her seem rather naive.
after reading so many romance novels where the heroine makes the brooding boy fall in love her, d likes to think she could mend a's embittered heart, but she also finds herself drawn to b's sense of danger
she wishes she could be more outspoken like i, not that she'd ever admit it
she secretly envies g's beauty, which is inside and out even if she doesn't realize it
played by ;; ιrιdeѕcenт
e
effortlessly elegant
This girl is beautiful and she knows it. She dresses in the height of fashion and can be rather vain at times, but she's a total sweetheart and constantly lends clothes to her friends.
h intrigues her and she wants to get to know him more, but she can't help but like c's charisma
she loves to doll up g and does her best to convince her that she really is beautiful
she hates how j throws everything away as a joke
played by ;; abandoned.
f
flirtatious but finicky
He loves company, which works well because he knows what to say at just the right time. However, for all that he does to flatter girls, his own interest is fleeting and hard to get.
i, with her sharp tongue and hot temper, is the first to have truly caught his attention in a long time, but it's impossible not to try and impress the beautiful e when he's around her
he and b are inseparable
can barely stand c, who used to be his best friend, only because of how much b hates him
played by ;; Cloudsong
g
generous and gentle
This animal lover dotes on her pets and spoils them rotten whenever she's home. She never runs out of kind things to say and always thinks of others first, able to find beauty in anything and everything... except herself. She constantly puts herself down.
she's fallen for c's charm, but f makes her blush when he focuses his attentions on her
loves all her friends equally
wishes d would stop being so self-conscious, not realizing the irony
played by ;; cheep
h
a heart of gold hidden by harshness
On the outside, he's tough as nails and sometimes scares people off with his cynical and sarcastic remarks, but he's actually rather sweet once you break past the barrier.
d softens him with a look, but g could also get him to open up easily
best friends with a
f is so irresponsible
played by ;; Lush.
i
impulsive to a point of inconsiderateness
A slave to her many desires, she acts on her whims and doesn't think of the consequences. Although she never means it, the things she say often come off as rude and obnoxious.
b makes her inexplicably uncertain and nervous, but she's also drawn to h's cynicism
she and j are partners in crime for all the trouble they cause around school
thinks d should get out and live more
played by ;; . sakorian rage .
j
it's all just a joke
Never seen without an impish grin about to break out on her face, she is pert and fresh and doesn't seem to have a sense of shame. She also happens to be in possession of a formidable intelligence that she completely misuses.
she'll do all she can to impress f and a
her best friend is i, with whom she's pulled off many pranks
thinks e cares too much about looks
played by ;; mountains.
