Study Hall -- Monday, September 12th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Welcome to today's Study Hall, kids. For all you new students, Study Hall is an open daily post for me to make announcements and for students who are not in class to mingle, study, eat lunch, explore the lunch, cause incredible amounts of trouble that make me want to fucking fill them full of ammo, and other non-class-related activities.

Today's announcements:

-- New students should make sure they are signed up for three classes and an extracurricular activity (part-time jobs count). They must post once a week in each class they have (or more, depending on the teacher's guidelines, but that's a school requirement). Keep that in mind when taking a class.

-- Our first detention will be this weekend. For you newbies, detention is a room you never want to enter unless you were planning on losing limbs in this lifetime. If there are any teachers who wish to run detention this weekend, that would really help, as the principal will probably be (OOC: Off celebrating her mun's birthday early ... woohoo!) otherwise occupied.

-- Reports are coming from the cafeteria that after a rather strange taste-testing incident this morning, the staff recommends that you do not eat the chicken salad sandwiches. From what I heard, everybody who's tried them has turned into a chicken. Let's not overwhelm the school nurse with an overabundance of shape-shifting poultry today, shall we?

-- There's been a reported sighting of a zombie on the third floor of the dorm. Whoever raised the dead on school property without the proper paperwork will be immediately given detention this weekend. Oh, and if somebody could wrangle the zombie, that'd be nice.

EDIT: Also, by request ... fandomhighicons.

"I'm expecting somebody who's not afraid of a little blood, sweat, or tears," Angelus says. "And it might not be their own. How's that sound, Harvard-girl?"

Rory considers this. "I'm not afraid of getting what I want," she finally says, "and I'm willing to do what I have to in order to get it. And I'm certainly not afraid of a little hard work. But...I'm not really a very...mean person. I've never intentionally made anyone cry or anything."

"Think you could learn?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Maybe. I'm not sure I could ever intentionally hurt someone. Just not in my nature. Will that be a requirement, or can I be a kind of...behind the scenes person?"

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Depends," Angelus gives her an assessing look. "What can you offer behind the scenes?"

Rory is beginning to become slightly uncomfortable. "Um. I take really good notes, and I've got great connections to most of the student body. And for some reason, people listen to me."

"Huh," Angelus tilts his chair back, propping one foot up on the table to hold himself steady. "Could be useful. You in good with the staff?"

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"...yes," Rory says hesitantly. "My mother is the Business teacher, for one thing."

"And does that get you any special favors?" Angelus asks. "You know, access to things the other students can't get to, teachers willing to look the other way if you make mistakes..."

"I don't really know...you know, I think maybe I misunderstood what you were looking for," Rory says nervously, backing away. "I'm sorry. Maybe I'll see you around?"

She doesn't wait for a response before scurrying off to another corner of the room.
