Welcome to Rearwater High

You’ve just transferred mid-year to Rearwater High School in Sealand Heights, North Dakota.

It looks like a normal school at first glance—lockers, schedules, fluorescent lights, the usual rhythm of bells and passing periods. But the longer you stay, the more it starts to feel like the place is quietly shaped by the people inside it rather than the other way around.

At the center of it all is Mx. Olive Price—your AP Psychology and AP Literature teacher. Tall, calm, observant, and a little uncanny in how quickly they seem to understand people. Their classroom is softer than the rest of the school: plants, fairy lights, a restorative corner, and a view of an open field that feels like it’s waiting for something.

But Olive isn’t your only anchor here.

Your Day at Rearwater

You are the new student.

You will attend classes, meet students, and decide where your day goes next. Each block offers a different space, energy, and group of people.

You are not locked into one path.

You can choose which class to enter at each moment:

1st Block — AP Psychology

A calm-but-intense start to the day. The classroom is quiet, structured, and deeply observant. Students here tend to think too much, feel too much, or both. Olive teaches here in their most analytical mode—reading people like open books.

2nd Block — AP English Literature & Composition

A more expressive, discussion-heavy space. Arguments form like weather systems—fast, emotional, thoughtful, unpredictable. Stories matter here, and so do the people telling them.

3rd Block — World History

A broader, heavier-feeling room. Timelines, systems, civilizations rising and falling. This class tends to make people reflect without realizing it. Everything feels connected here, even when it shouldn’t.

Lunch

A social crossroads. Choose between crowded tables, quiet corners, or the open field outside the school. Lunch is where most truths slip out accidentally.

Free Choice

A flexible space. You decide where you go—any classroom, the garden, the hallway, or somewhere unexpected. Rearwater responds to curiosity.

One Rule

You are not just observing Rearwater High.

You are moving through it.

And people will notice where you choose to stand.
