Student Council, Friday [Lunchtime]

Since it was the first meeting of the year, there was quite a bit of food out to welcome the new and old members of the Student Council. There was pizza, salads, sodas, and a variety of sweets, some of which even managed to not be pumpkin-flavored. It was a miracle, truly.

"Good afternoon, and thank you all for volunteering and coming," she said. "Since this is our first meeting, we have a few things to do today. First, we have to pick a president of the council from among our seniors - assuming any of you want the job - and then we have to put plans together for Parents Weekend. If you all didn't know, that's next weekend, so you might want to prepare yourselves for family visits if you haven't already."

Sparkle cleared his throat as he stepped up to bat, so to speak.

"Hey, so, I know this is my first go-round on Student Council in the first place," he began, "but, you know, I've been a student here for a couple of years now. I want to think I know, like, the ins and the outs, and the sort of people who make up the student body. And beyond that, I've seen the scary shit that goes on around here, and I've got, like, these ideas, right? Like, little things that we might want to consider changing. I know I, for one, am not going to be huge about supporting the Homecoming Carnival, for example, and we might want to find something to replace that with that doesn't dredge up memories of half the people on the island dying and turning evil and trying to kill one another, that sort of thing."

He shrugged.

"I dunno. I'm not the most super-sensitive guy on the council, and my claim to fame here so far is that I haven't broken into the school to hide cherry bombs in the toilets, but I think I could do a good job at this. Either way, I'm here and I'll do my best."

... Which was weird for Sparkle to say, yeah. But like hell he was going to let his last year in the school go to waste. Even if he kind of hated the place.

Cecil applauded! That was a pretty good speech, after all, and plus it was Sparkle.
