ANNOUNCEMENT 009

[intercom_voice]

[The intercom screeches to life as it does, and the woman speaking over it is as condescending and husky-voiced as always.]

Well hello, my petulant pupils! It seems we have some new blood coming in through our welcoming double doors~ Do treat them nicely, won't you? You wouldn't want to make any enemies in this place, now would you?

After all, the school year is quite long, and I have oh-so-many lessons planned for the lot of you! But fret not, the newly opened game rooms in the East Wing should give you something to relax with. After all, study is good for the mind, but all work and no play makes me precious students dull witted and rife with cabin fever.

Uh.. Hey there! New kid here, just arrived.. I just have one, teensy-tiny question to ask:

[clears throat]

WHY AREN'T THERE ANY TEACHERS IN THIS WHOLE SCHOOL!?

[intercom_voice]

Ah yes, I saw you coming in...

[She tuts.] And a beginner's question indeed. Don't you get it? You're all the teachers here. You learn from each other.

[wannabeaboy]

We're the teachers? B-but we're not qualified! I haven't even finished elementary!

[intercom_voice]

Tsk tsk... Then you'd better start learning, hadn't you? You've got a lot of work to catch up on.

[wannabeaboy]

Ooh! Fine then! I'll play along... I'll be the gosh-darn best student AND teacher this campus has ever seen!

And if I do, would you let me go home?

[intercom_voice]

[Good boy. Very good boy!]

Finish your studies and then we'll see about graduation. You can't put the cart before the horse when it comes to education!

[wannabeaboy]

[grrrr >:c His voice sounds forcefully chipper but full of I'm-going-to-show-you! attitude.]

On the contrary, madame! I'm just trying to keep some end goals in mind! The joy of education may be a reward in itself, but the final grade is always good incentive!

[intercom_voice]

[Oh my, aren't you a model student?]

What a good student you are... Keep that attitude up and you'll be head boy before you know it.

[wannabeaboy]

....What's "head boy"?

[His previous fire is suddenly burnt out by pure curiosity. You're speaking his language, mysterious voice.]

[intercom_voice]

[Tut tut...] You have a bounteous library to look it up in, don't you? But just this once, I'll tell you. The head boy is the top male student of any school, second only to the teachers and the principal themselves.

[wannabeaboy]

..What? I-I didn't know such a thing existed!

[Now look what you've done! He's totally having a dream sequence about it.]

Head boy, huh..? Yeah... Yeah, I can do that, too!

[intercom_voice]

[Attaboy.]

Now, if that's all, I've got a lot of work to do, and you should get back to your studies!

[wannabeaboy]

I will! ..But I'll have you know that it's only because I want to!

[intercom_voice]

Well, that's when it matters most, isn't it?Show the rest of the school what slackers they really are!
