School Assembly, Friday Afternoon

Harriet was beaming as she walked out on stage. "Good afternoon. I'm Harriet Jones, Dean of Students."

Before she could continue, there was a heckling from the back of the auditorium, sounding not unlike a certain flame haired god of the dead. "Yes, we know who you are!"

Harriet fixed the back of the room with a look. "If I could continue, please?" There was silence. "Thank you. Now, there's been a recurring problem with gremlins at this school, so in the interests of educating you about this potential danger, we've arranged for some people to speak here this afternoon. I urge you to give them your attention, and don't be afraid to ask question. After they finish, of course."

[ooc: You have must waited for the OCD! Instructions (cause I was tired when I OCD'd and it kinda got away from me...): Speaker, please ping into the space for your talk, then ping into the ask questions thread when you're ready to answer questions. Students who are speaking, just ping in with your talk, and people can ask questions off that ping. Hades modded with permission!]

A familiar figure... well maybe to a couple of students, stood up from his chair dressed in an all black suit.

Well what else did you expect him to wear?

"Hi. For those of you who don't know me, my name is Martin Blank. Fandom High Survivor, Class of 2007. I came back to school today to discuss with you a topic that concerns me greatly. Gremlins. I was by no means the first person to get bitten by a gremlin but my first time was definitely memorable. Lights please."

The lights went down in the auditorium as Marty clicked a remote and a monitor began to show footage of him dressed in fatigues and thinking he was a certain principal (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/125897.html). "This was my first experience. For a couple of hours I made a giant fool of myself and entertained the entire school. Next time I was bitten Really. I swear was Parents weekend."

Marty clicked the remote again showing footage of himself and insane and at one point hugging a certain ethics teacher (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/223279.html?thread=8129839#t8129839).

"For the record? I have no idea whether snickerdoodles are really made from people. And despite what other people might think? I never said that Obi-wan looked like Kenny Loggins. Moving on to December..."

Marty clicked the remote again and another series of footage started up.

"As you can see here (http://oatmanspatient.livejournal.com/26957.html?thread=507725#t507725), I thought (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/334780.html?thread=12273852#t12273852) I was an (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/335353.html) elf (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/336351.html). Don't ask me how I found those shoes with the curly toes."

"Now by this point enough people in our school had been bitten that we tried to start a support group for those who had been bitten. Unfortunately... Well. I'll just let the footage speak for itself."

Marty clicked the remote and... Well I'm sure everyone can appreciate the freaking (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomtownies/524475.html) train (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/384360.html) wreck (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/385496.html)

"Now as you can see from these experiences, no one was truly harmed but I urge you all to think of what could happen if Gremlins bit the wrong person? What if it wasn't merely an embarrassing situation that happened and someone got hurt? While I've made my peace with these pests, I strongly suggest that the school take an active stance against these creatures. Find them a new home instead of the vents in school. Maybe in New Jersey. They'd feel at home there. Anyhow that's all I've got for the presentation. Thanks for having me back."
