Study Hall -- Wednesday, September 28th
Welcome to Wednesday's study hall. I'm in a considerably better mood than yesterday, which mostly means none of you will be getting set on fire today. I reserve the right to threaten you with it, though. You have no fucking idea how entertaining the looks on your faces are when I do that.
*grins wickedly and takes a drag off her cigarette*
The announcements for today --
-- Biff is missing once again from the front of the teachers lounge. If somebody could find that stupid goddamn bear and drag it back, I'd appreciate it. (I won't be rettaching any limbs you might lose, though. That's your fucking problem, not mine.)
-- After the events of last weekend, I'm thinking of lifting the weapons ban. I'll be opening up a discussion section in the comments for those opposed and those for the weapons ban to hash out any differences they might have, any requests they might have for licensing or policing those who wish to carry their weapons, and any other problems they might wish to discuss.
-- Parents Weekend will take place on October 28th, 29th, and 30th. For the record, you may make one new RPG journal for whichever parent, guardian, relation, or mortal enemy you might wish to bring in for your character. These characters cannot already be enrolled in the school or exist in town, and if you can find someone not already involved in the game to play them just for that weekend, all the better. However, these characters will not be allowed posting access on FH or any related communities, they will only be allowed to comment in designated threads -- open houses for classes, the Halloween dance, etc. They're only here to visit for one weekend, folks -- they won't be hanging in the dorms or taking classes or anything. Also, teachers will be allowed to call parent/teacher conferences with any of their students they might wish to meet with (or any "parent" they might wish to interview ... *snerk*).
(OOC: Also, for the record, I'm not playing John Connor anymore -- I've passed him off to someone else. Now he can get a little more play, the poor antisocial bastard. :))

Re: Weapons Ban
Okay, at least that part's clear.
Well, as for witches and wizards, I know many of them can have their powers bound. Of course, this isn't always the case, and a lot of times it doesn't work.
But, the fact of the matter is that by having weapons naturally does make you different from the rest of the student body. That is against our control. We shouldn't discriminate against those students, but I see no way to do so otherwise. Considering the situation though, it depends on what happens to account for expulsion. For instance, beating another kid up, that's not that bad. But killing another? Whether the weapon happens to be part of the person or not, that's still wrong.
I'm sorry I don't have a better answer. But I admit, I do not know everything. I am only suggesting one idea out of many possibilities.
