Pacific High and Bear Attacks - Princibear Raizo ventures to Pacific High to test the mettle of its students. Vince LaRose, dashing captain of the fencing team, rises to the challenge courageously, and gives a fair demonstration of the school's prowess. - created on 23:31:20 11/06/2007 by Vince and last modified on 16:54:25 11/13/2007.

Ol' Mr. Rusty - Pacific High hosts a fencing meet, drawing out a fair crowd. Afterwards, the fencing team's captain runs into the shop teacher, Mr. Rust, along with Alexis. They discover that Mr. Rust has some fighting background, and he's going to have a fight with.. a student!? Gasp! - created on 21:07:13 01/05/2008 by Vince and last modified on 16:08:02 01/06/2008.

Rooftop Fighting - Vince holds some fighting on Pacific High's rooftop for better training, when the masked and not-all-that-incognito Alexis shows up and challenges him! Extremely one-sided through the most of it, right up until the swordsman goes to ensure the girl doesn't fall off the edge of the building. The result is Vince being disgusted with the girl, and having possible misconceptions about her. Woe. - created on 16:27:46 01/06/2008 by Vince and last modified on 20:35:59 01/06/2008. Cast: Vince and Alexis.
Earnest Rematchings - And now comes the rematch between Vince and Alexis. Though Vince doesn't use any flashy, exquisite techniques that really show off Rose Dansant this time, Alexis clearly fights her hardest to a satisfactory degree. And this time without any methods that might seem unsavory! Is all made right by the end of it? Does fighting make everything better? Does that make any sense at all? You decide! - created on 23:12:31 01/06/2008 by Vince and last modified on 18:30:13 01/07/2008. Cast: Vince and Alexis.
"Shoosh!" - The fencing team is minding its own business swatting at each other with antannaes. But unbeknownst to them, a certain gymnast has developed a crush for their captain, Vince. Anxious to show off her prospect, and indeed, future date, she phones up her friend to come oogle them during practice. The friend, Himeko, is suspicious! Oh noes! - created on 18:41:10 01/07/2008 by Vince and last modified on 23:42:39 01/07/2008. Cast: Himeko, Vince, and Alexis.
Injuries and Chivalry - Fencing practice can be a little hazardous, if proper caution isn't taken. Vince is caught unprepared and beaned severely with one of the pointy antennae. Fortunately, the lovely nurse-in-training Yuki is on campus at the time. Bonus feature: LaRose history lesson! - created on 20:56:09 01/12/2008 by Vince and last modified on 23:20:47 01/16/2008. Cast: Yuki and Vince.
Meetings and Misconceptions? - Being lead to the conclusion that the kids in that Pacific Resistance group consists only of rowdy, belligerent bullies, Vince isn't too anxious to meet any of them. Unfortunately for him, those he's spoken to say it's inevitable, and most likely to be a very unpleasant experience. And that's why meeting a charming, intriguing Marisol O'Connell throws a monkey wrench right into his expectations - especially considering the notoriety he's heard about her. Can they be wrong? Could the gossip be overblown? - created on 19:30:51 01/21/2008 by Vince and last modified on 19:04:47 01/23/2008. Cast: Marisol and Vince.
Renaissance Fair - Day 1 - Southtown gets a renaissance fair! Nifty keen! Such an event draws out a good few people, which would obviously include Vince LaRose. The swordsman is not only attending, but he's rented a spot and set up a blacksmithing shop of sorts. Iincyo is out and about surveying things, as chairpeople are wont to do, and Himeko winds up bumping into them both... and proceeds to irritate Vince. All the while, poor Iincyo is caught in the middle. Is Himeko actually a mean, spiteful person? Whatever reasoning she has, one thing is clear: do not belittle authentic nobility. - created on 17:18:27 02/18/2008 by Vince and last modified on 12:11:22 02/20/2008. Cast: Himeko, Vince, and Iincyo.
Renaissance Fair - Night 1 - After the official fair time has ended for the first day, and night has overcome the clearing... there isn't a whole heck of a lot left to see or do. Poor Alexis seems to have arrived entirely too late to see anything that day, but not too late to see Vince and give a very unexpected gift. But alas, she has to return tomorrow to actually see what the fair has to offer. - created on 22:13:40 02/18/2008 by Vince and last modified on 12:12:08 02/20/2008. Cast: Vince and Alexis.
Renaissance Fair - Day 2 - The second and final day of the fair, and everyone seems pretty happy - Vince is forging away at the smithy and Alexis is enjoying the sights. But true to any medieval re-enactment, some military force must descend upon the festivities and ruin them, spreading gloom and despair across the land. Or maybe that's just in the movies. Whichever it may be, Rolento plays the invading warlord, demanding a test of Vince's skill. And unfortunately, it doesn't involve forging him blingage. - created on 21:21:12 02/19/2008 by Vince and last modified on 14:34:01 02/20/2008. Cast: Vince, Alexis, and Rolento.
Forest Foreshadows - An enchanted forest with dashing heros and a mystical melody drifting through the wind. This is nowhere to be seen in this log. Instead, we have Vince being all boring and STUDYING while Gabriel butchers a song on her violin. There may be no action really going on right now, but if this encounter is any indication, there's definitely some looming in the horizon! - created on 20:45:33 05/05/2008 by Vince and last modified on 12:54:33 05/07/2008. Cast: Gabriel and Vince.
Pacific High Ransackery! - Birdie is looting Pacific High. No joke. He's there ripping lockers apart, taking all those kids' walk-mans, eye-pods, and whatever other assorted mutations that might fetch a good price. But the would-be heroic swordsman, Vince, gallantly makes the scene and attempts to stop him. Unfortunately, birds are no longer made of flesh and feathers, but pure iron. Bad news: Vince couldn't stop him, and Birdie made off with various student property bits. Good news: It can all be bought back from your local pawn shops. - created on 22:24:22 06/24/2008 by Vince and last modified on 16:26:03 06/25/2008. Cast: Vince and Birdie.

Woodland Witchery! - Migning Beart goes to the shrine looking for her granny, but she finds a swordsman. Vince LaRose goes to the shrine looking for tranquil training, but he finds a witch.

Opposite Similarities - One flees the irritating masses of Southtown. The other simply follows his feet and the call of the wind. A small village in Germany brings Ninon Beart and Vince LaRose together unexpectedly for a second encounter. Though civility seems strained at first, the two very different teens find some intriguing common ground between them. In the end, Ninon believes that the swordsman may not be as puerile as those from whom she seeks solace. - created on 20:09:55 09/09/2008 by Vince and last modified on 15:20:40 09/10/2008.

Meditations and Conversations - Upon his return to Southtown, Vince heads to the park to surround himself with winds for meditation.

A representative of Metro City's... charitabe branch, Bred Iron, is present and collecting some donations. As it so happens, Vince LaRose is passing through Paris on his way to Strolheim when he spots the opportunity to help a good cause. Only when Bred starts making things awkward and questionable, Vince becomes hesitant... and Bred becomes angry. Witness a true showing of noble indignance as the two suddenly square off, partially while on horseback! (Advisement: Winners don't use drugs.)

As Times Change - As times change, so do people. What is good anymore? When we age, do we continue to live?
