fandomhigh | Announcement

As the first classes of the morning get started, there is a faint, tinny crackle and a volley of curses. The journalism professor's flair for obscenity is easily recongizable.

"...mother-fucker... ah,there. All right. Here's a schoolwide announcement for you assholes. The first student I catch starting anything with another student in the way of physical violence, and by that I mean swinging, hitting, kicking, spell-casting, etc, is going to wish they'd never been born. Sparring or such activity within a club setting is perfectly allowable. I'm talking violence with intent to cause damage. That goes double for teachers.

Nanotechnology survelliance is a bitch to detect and eradicate and, although I'm sure some of you can find and disarm it, be aware that I've seeded the public areas and directed the feed to security and to the principal's office as well as my own monitors. You hit someone else where I can see them, no matter the provocation, and I will find you and make you very, very sorry. More likely, I'll send rover to find and drag you before the principal, but as mentioned previously, I have low to no tolerance for bullying. In cases of extreme provocation, you can plead your case, but if your self control is so low as to swing first, do not expect pity or mercy.

That having been said, if you have a problem or issue, see rover or the principal. They can and will protect you, using extreme prejudice if necessary. The first person who whines that the principal doesn't have the staff and resources to protect them from any student will be advised to catch the first bus home.

At this time, if I catch any student or teacher armed with a weapon that can produce deadly force, they will be automatically brought to the principal's attention and get at least one detention. Carry a gun within this building aside from at the shooting range and I will have your ass. If you don't feel safe without one, you do not belong here.

Before you attempt to argue with me, allow me to quote the Student Handbook, "There will be no drugs, alcohol, discharging of weaponry, or destruction of evil spirits or creatures without clean-up on this campus."

Jayne? You have another detention on top of however many you already had and if you don't get your heavily armed ass off campus now I will set the principal on your ass. Do we understand one another?

Now. Get to fucking class, the lot of you."

*rover stopped rolling in his diligent patrol of the grounds to listen.*

*he who is under house arrest pushes rover's buttons most of the time, by his simple existance*

*he who is under house arrest has just achieved a modecum of respect from rover with his announcement*

*rover will still hound he who is under house arrest if seen violating the terms of his agreement to be at

*with extreme prejudice*

*but he who is under house arrest has rover's respect*

Marty sits in his jail cell and hears the PA announcement from town. He thinks about the stash of weapons he has and considers off-campus housing.

After hearing the announcement (and wincing as the harsh sound tore through her poor abused head), Ivanova reconsiders the PPG she has taken to carrying after experiencing life at Fandom High. Regretfully, she sighs and heads back towards the house to drop it off.

Phoebe is in his office when she hears Spider's announcements. She shrugs and goes back to the paperwork. Obviously something had set her boss off and it wasn't one of the four of them. That was good. But why was he giving Jayne detention for? What had he done?

Phoebe sighs and returns to the checklist of items she needs to acquire.

(I live to please.)

At some point very shortly after this announcement, Duce is going to track Professor J. down in person. "Uh, professor? That thing where you said "if I catch any student armed with a weapon that can produce deadly force, they will be automatically brought to the principal's attention and get at least one detention." - we have a problem. We're technically armed with three.. no, four.. deadly weapons that we can't exactly take off and leave at home. The snakes are venemous, when we get big and ugly we're not only venemous but capable of constricting someone to death as well, and while the clinic can easily be supplied with antivenom, we haven't found any way yet to reverse calcification. We are not normally a violent person, but the weapons, they don't come off, and they can be deadly. How do we handle this? Should we just start reporting to detention?"

"I'm more worried about explosives and projectile weapons," Spider admitted, eyeing her thoughtfully. "You're a... semi-deity of some kind, aren't you? I'm afraid I haven't had time to go into as much depth with some of the new student records, but I think I remember something like that. As long as you don't go around wilfully doing your classmates to death, natural extensions of yourself aren't any sort of problem."

Shrugging one shoulder, Duce answered, "More like..afflicted with deity. The hair is sentient, and has many minds of its own, somewhat bonded to mine. They are mostly under control, as much as one can control a nest of vipers. We usually don't bite unless provoked."

Frowning thoughtfully, she adds, "We're more concerned about .. " Searching for a polite term, and failing, "stupid people. There seems to be an outbreak of rampant stupidity amongst the student population recently. We don't care to be the object of some idiot's justification for weaponry. 'She has a head full of poisonous snakes! I brought a semi-automatic weapon to school to protect myself.' so we thought we would head it off at the pass.

We also heard a student was beaten up for being a vry..vampire. Should the same treatment befall us, we cannot likewise guarantee the attacker's safety." Explaining, "Even were we to restrain our urge to strike, if they harm us and we bleed.. well, our blood has funny properties. There are things completely outside the bounds of our control that could be lethal."

Rubbing her hand under her glasses, careful to keep her eyes closed, she adds, "We've never really worried about this before, because we have a deep belief that stupidity of that level should be fatal."

Beka ponders the announcement, then wonders if her personal nanotech is sufficient to disrupt surveillance of her.

Since she really has no interest in detention, she decides to carry only stun-weapons to classes. Her body is her deadliest weapon anyhow.
