fandomhigh | School Assembly, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

"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.]

"That job I do not like," Danny said. "What we do is about more than money. The quality of a film should not be judged by its box office take."

"And the worth of a candidate shouldn't be judged by the amount he or she can raise before the New Hampshire primary," Josh agreed. "We should totally be in charge of the universe. Who do we see about that?"

"I keep writing notes and getting no reply," Danny said, by way of agreement. "Though currently my work as a behind the scenes puppet master has been going pretty well."

"I took a break from that to warp impressionable youth," Josh admitted. "Though it has its perks, too."

"See, the joy of my job is that I get to do that without leaving my office," Danny replied. He glanced around. "Normally."

"I know I would've been scarred by Spit-take Theater," Josh agreed.

"This is why I leave dealing with that to Matt," Danny said. "He's stressed enough that things like that can roll right off him. It's like a protective aura of anxiety."

"He should meet Toby," Josh said. "It sounds like together they buy up half the Maalox in this country."

"Red Bull too," Danny said. "Which you'd think would be scary given Matt's personality but it actually brings him down to normal."

Josh blinked, imagining Toby on Red Bull. Or Sam. "Does he know about Caf-Pow? You should definitely pick some up at the store in town before going home."

"Caf-Pow?" Danny asked. "What's that?"

"Basically caffeine distilled into liquid form. It's the best thing ever. I drank it one morning and don't remember a lot of it, but I got soooooo much done."

"Yeah that's got Matt's name all over it," Danny said. "I'll buy him a case, tell him it was from a fan."

"I wouldn't go that..." Josh shrugged. "You know what? Sure. Tell him I love Nicolas Cage, Marriage Counselor."

Danny grinned. "Thanks. That is one of our better ones."

"Well, it's been...something, to meet you," Josh said. "I'll get you on the invite list for the next round of fundraisers. You'll freak people out. Should be fun."

"Same here," Danny said. He wasn't as creeped out by all of this because in his opinion every guy should be so lucky as to look like him.
