Junior Achievers 2nd Meeting

Outside of Dr. Carter's classroom is a neatly handwritten sign which says:

Junior Achievers Meeting

All are welcome

Tonight's topics include:

  1. Welcoming new members

  2. JA's role in the upcoming Student Council Elections

  3. Discussion: Has the yearbook staff overshadowed our hopes for the bake sale?

  4. Any new business

  5. Any words of wisdom from Dr. Carter


Free food provided.


The door to the classroom is wide open. The teacher's desk is vacant, awaiting Dr. Carter. On the desk is an open box of brownies from Deb's Diner.

Angelus sits on top of one of the student desks with his feet resting on the chair of the desk in front of him. He leafs through a notebook, occasionally jotting things down as they occur to him. He is dressed in the same black on black ensemble that he had on earlier in the day, but the pin he wore in Study Hall is missing.

Angelus occasionally hums a cheery tune to himself, and occasionally shakes his head as though disbelieving his own inner thoughts.

[OOC ETA: For the newbies, these meetings work pretty much like Study Hall. Hop in whenever, join whatever conversation. And the refresh key is definitely your friend.]

Anakin gave her a wry smile. "You shouldn't listen to me on politics. Even Padmé's given up on getting me to be reasonable about it." He looked at her. "Really. Serving the students is a noble calling. I'm just not a fan of the back-stabbing and deviousness that seems to go along with public office."

Her lips twitch with suppressed mirth. "Nobility isn't one of my prime virtues. I'm a pragmatist. Politics is like self-defense to me. I want something, I don't trust anyone else to get it, so I have to do it myself. I don't do back-stabbing. I'll help whomever wins."

She considers whether deviousness applies to her. "No, I don't think I'm devious either. I'm not above manipulating situations to achieve my ends, but... isn't that what negotiations are about?"
