Posted: Fri Aug 28, 2020 11:59 pmThe Secret Science Phone showed that it was, in fact, a solid silver spike!
Sometimes a solid silver spike is just a solid silver spike; it's more about where to stick it than what it is.

"It could at least mean there's a chance Will isn't entirely on Lippincott's side, but that may be wishful thinking."

Posted: Sat Aug 29, 2020 3:40 pmAinsley merely listened to the conversation, sitting on the ground and sketching rather furiously.
He made sure not to draw anyone in the same scene or even on the same page, of course. That was tantamount to accidental narcing.
Still, he hadn't really been present around this many students all at once and he was eager to get them down, flipping between pages in his sketch book to place them inconspicuously separate from each other.

So we have to be willing to compromise on things, for instance making the curfew a limit to campus or even the dorm building. Demanding he eliminate it entirely gets us nowhere."
Re: X-Man Prefect-Haters Club
Posted: Sat Aug 29, 2020 7:31 pm"Eeanhh!" Robin makes a very convincing 'wrong answer' buzzer sound. "I say we stage a protest with excessive demands so we can compromise down to what we actually want."

Re: X-Man Prefect-Haters Club
Posted: Sat Aug 29, 2020 8:37 pm"I fail to see what you hope to gain from negotiation," Natalie says, "Everyone wants something different, everyone is willing to accept different levels of 'compromise'. It's a recipe for showing your hand and walking away with nothing."

Pressing lightly past Diego, Basil appeared at random in the middle of the group... Sort of.
He wasn't wearing his normal suit and tie get up, but his contact suit that kept him both invisible and 'decent'. As such, an empty school issued training uniform that was perhaps too formfitting for some people's liking folded it's arms over it's chest casually.
