Event Finished A Meeting on the Sly

[thoth=http://i.imgur.com/5uZki9l.png]So it seemed they were in agreement. "Then I see we're in agreement." Which was a solid start, if nothing else. They would still have to plan finer details. "I plan to apply for appropriate permits to put up signs in the hallways, and remove those signs whose owners haven't gone through the proper channels." She wasn't going to be ripping down competing posters - no no, only those that were up there against school regulations.

"I don't suppose you could refer me to other members of the student council you think deserve a second spot?" She imagined that most of the previous year's council would be running for re-election, but she had no idea who was actually going to be worth re-electing. Not everyone was good in the position, after all.

[thoth=http://i.imgur.com/5uZki9l.png]Anastasia was forced to pauise and consider what she knew about Wei and Marina... which, unfortunately, wasn't much. Marina. Second to last or last year of highschool - Anastasia couldn't remember. Last years vice president, fairly well liked, super popular. Cheerleader? She was pretty sure she was a cheerleader. Meanwhile, Wei was somewhere in the middle years of highschool, a literal monkey, and was... secretary? Definitely on student council either way.

"I'll have to speak to her then. She does seem quite popular, even though I've never met her." She hadn't met a lot of people. If they didn't share classes... well, Anastasia was far from the most social of people. "You seem to be doing a good job as president this year."

[thoth=http://i.imgur.com/5uZki9l.png]Anastasia had an awful lot of points, only most of them were comparatively minor in the grand scheme of things.

"There is a large portion of the student base that is coming in midway through their high school or college years. The resources for them can be a bit slim. I was going to propose a school official first-years club. Not for those who are in the first years of their respective schooling, but for those who are in their first years at Starlight Academy. It can be difficult to blend in with students who have already been on the island that much longer, considering how many of our students begin their time here unaware of the existence of non-humans at all." It was something she'd personally experienced, and something she felt quite strongly about. The school didn't adapt itself quite as much socially to the strange times people were coming in. It certainly did academically - you could enroll at any point in the school year - but not when it came to things like getting friends for new students.

[thoth=http://i.imgur.com/5uZki9l.png]"There is a lot more to adapt to here than other schools. Ghosts. Demons. Strange powers. Plus there are students that are not from this world at all, but from space or other dimensions or other times. To them, adapting must be extremely difficult. Perhaps even two clubs? One for people used to human behavior and unused to the supernatural, while there should be another for those who are not used to human behavior." Which seemed like an awful lot of people, now that she thought of it. "It would be hard to set up, but it seems less like it should be a club and more like it should be an... ongoing orientation?" That seemed like it would make the most sense to her. "It would have to be fully endorsed by the school to do any real good." Because part of the issue was that people who were new to the island might not know about a resource like that. No, they'd essentially have to be dropped into it to start.

[thoth=http://i.imgur.com/5uZki9l.png]Lots of people felt conflicted in their highschool years about just who they were. Anastasia didn't really. She knew exactly who she was. In fact, she knew a bit too much about who she was. Most people tended to hold back, where as Anastasia saw absolutely nothing wrong with being completely up front, even about things that others might have preferred to avoid saying.

"I had already graduated at home in Russia - because of the differences in school systems, this is my second 'last year of highschool'. I believe in following the rules, practice sambo regularly. As Manta Carlos is the only home I have now, I have a vested interest in seeing it improve." That meant the school and the island. She had at least another four years at the school, after all.
