Student Council [Friday, Lunchtime]

There were a lot of things about Fandom and its school that still didn't make sense to Minerva, but this, at least, she understood. The classroom where the Student Council met was set up with a large table and chairs, and all sorts of conjured sweets were laid out, along with tea and pumpkin juice. (Pumpkin-flavored-everything season originated with witches, thank you very much.)

"Good afternoon," she said, smiling at the students once they'd gotten settled in. "Thank you for taking the time to be here today. I'm looking forward to getting to know you all a little better, and it seems we have some business to address right away. First, we must decide upon a president for the council, from among the seniors who wish to be considered for the position. Then, we need to plan for this Parents Weekend that will be happening next week." Pardon her slight lack of enthusiasm, but dealing with parents was always the worst part of this job. "Who would like to speak first?"

"Well... this might not necessarily work in the community center, but maybe Saturday could be some kind of day of games and activities?" Alec suggested. If nothing else, he thought his sister might like it. Surely some other people were bound to get into it too. "There could be races and sports and things."

"We could have something like board games as well, perhaps?" Yeul suggested, a bit diffidently. "Just so that if a family does not like sports or races, they still have something to do."

"That could work," Alec agreed, nodding, and totally not judging other families for being less athletic than his own. No sir. "And food, obviously."

"Ooh, and what about some kind of arts and crafts?" Petra asked. "I know my mom would be all over that." If her mom got to come, which, thanks to the money thing, was always a giant question mark. But she wasn't going to dwell on that right now.

"This may sound a little crazy, but with the arts and crafts stuff... What if we had a thing where people could make their own gremlin? I mean, out of popsicle sticks or stuffed or something. Not with dark magic or science experiments or anything."

Just to be clear.

"The families will all go home thinking that gremlins are something cute and soft to snuggle, but I think that would be hilarious," Karla chimed in. "Something like the Build-A-Bear stores in the malls, maybe?"

She thought for a moment and added, "Karaoke. There should definitely be karaoke."
