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.]

Dawn sat. "So, my love life's peachy, how's yours?"

"Good. Parker's back to normal and she continues to rock," Weiss said. "And what've you got going on that brings this to the front of the conversation?"

"Oh, yay," Dawn hugged him. "I was worried. And I was just checking. Plus, you don't have to beat Sam up. He wasn't himself, since he was busy being a butthead."

"Good. I kinda figured, but I'm really glad to hear it. So you guys mended fences, then?" Weiss asked.

Dawn beamed brightly at Weiss, then whispered, "He loves me."

Weiss took a second to process that. A second longer than he really thought he should've taken. Then he grinned. "Seriously?"

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"That's what he said," Dawn said, her grin still wide and bright and shiny and kind of doofy looking.

"Awesome! You realize that if he breaks your heart, he's just upgraded himself from a pummeling to a maiming, right?"

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Uh," she said intelligently. Actually, she hadn't considered that. "I could theoretically do the same thing to him, though." Dawn bit her lip and looked down, still happy, but quieter about it.

"Not that I think he will," Weiss said. "You were pretty freaked over the weekend, which tells me that asshole is the opposite of Sam. So, yeah. He'll probably go unmaimed."

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Yeah," Dawn wasn't one hundred percent sure about that, but she blamed that on dating on the Hellmouth. "Sam's great. Plus, not generally evil."

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[http://users.livejournal.com/weissguy_/]

"Not evil is always a plus," Weiss said. "Well, it is if you're an intelligent person who knows that danger doesn't equal commitment."

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

"So, not into dangerous bad girls, huh?" Dawn asked, then wondered again what the hell he was doing with Parker. Oh, wait. Nevermind, she knew the answer to that already.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[http://users.livejournal.com/weissguy_/]

"Okay, current dating situation aside. Do what I say, not what I do," Weiss said, smiling.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

"Hey, I gave up the slightly dangerous guy for the geek," Dawn said proudly, "so I think I've got this down."

"Ah, well, then what do you need me for?" Weiss teased.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Um, everything else?" Dawn said, not really teasing. "Plus some of the same stuff." Except for the kissing parts, obviously.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

"You know, I should actually meet this Sam guy at some point," Weiss said.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"...you haven't met him?" Dawn blinked and tried to figure out how that happened.

Re: Before the Assembly [1/26]

[http://users.livejournal.com/weissguy_/]

"I've met his brother," Weiss said. "And his brother's hornier clone. But no luck on the actual article."

"He likes to hang out where the books live," Dawn grinned, "but he just changed his schedule and I can't remember which day he works."
