School Assembly, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

"Welcome, one and all, to the first school assembly of the new semester! In case you haven't met me yet, I am The Tick! Dean of Students here at Fandom High. That means that where student issues are concerned, I am the parking attendant in the self park garage of your education!"

"Today, we have a special in the garage! It's a special that speaks of a different kind of special you might get in a seedier garage. Today's special is called DANK: Drugs Are Not Kool! Spelling is cool, of course, but sometimes you have to make an exception and spell something with a 'k' to work. Anyway, we will have several speakers this afternoon, guiding your car into a parking space of a clean and healthy life! Please welcome our guests!"

[OOC: Each speaker will have their own thread, plus there will be a Q&A thread at the end of the post for them to ping into. Also, since it seems appropriate this time, there will be a thread for after the assembly to speak to the guests a bit more privately. Please wait to ask the speakers questions until the speakers have pinged in.

There are also a couple of general conversation threads for people who don't want to give their undivided attention. :)

Big thanks to all of the speakers! Speaking of which, speakers should be sure to check their comm invites.]

"Yes? Stupid-looking boy, blonde hair," Lucille called, pointing to Dick.

Strangely enough that wasn't the first time Dick's been called that. "Um, ok. I was just wondering how someone so-" he wanted to say 'old' "-uh, feminine managed to escape rehab?"

This sort of information could be useful in Dick's future.

"Flatterer," Lucille said. "There are a few keys to escaping rehab. It helps if you're smarter or at least craftier than the people guarding you. It also helps if you're rich enough to bribe your way out. But what helped me the most was a surprisingly strong shoulder block. That little Mexican boy never saw it coming. I think he's in a wheelchair now." She let out a happy little sigh at the memory.
