Bananas for All~

Who: Nana; open but some closed prompts might be put up as needed!
What: Various prompts for the first half of June! Including a student council election-related one.
When: Early June.
Where: Across campus.
Warnings: Probably not much, but will update.

1. THE AP-PEEL OF DEMOCRACY (open!)

[In early June, on the quad, Nana has set up one of her big campaign events: the bake sale to end all bake sales.

There is a huge booth there, and it has multiple people helping staff her campaign working it. The Banana Stand is more like a Banana Mart today. Nana's not often behind the counter; she's out mingling with the students who come by, handing over small plates with cookies and slices of banana bread and other delicious goodies. It's a social event!

She's in top form. She has her uniform on, but a sash declaring her a "PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFUL" on, and she's posing for photos and smiling. There's posters, buttons, and also a wooden cutout of a cute cartoon frog to get a picture with.]


2. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT (open!)

[Recent nightmares (both sleeping and the ones she experienced, firsthand, at the end of May) have Nana on the razor's edge, inside. She's stepped back from feeling so wound up that she might burst, but... she found herself lacking. She'd been defeated twice now.

She can internalize a lot of that, but it needs somewhere to come out.

Today's, she's back inside the Mythril Cages. It's not hard to find her, working through a form with a wooden practice katana -- making her way through it for the sixteenth time today. She has her hair tied back, and has an intense look on her face.

A lot of her strikes are a little too hard.]

Oh, definitely.

[ Harder and harder and then a bit, because what on earth is up with like.... half of the people going here. ]

You also had a normal day-to-day life before, then?
onebetter: (looking at the sky)

I knew, but... well, I still went through school as normal. Nobody around me had an idea, so it ended up mattering fairly little in daily life.

Before I got to this place, I figured I was prepared. Arriving was... humbling.
onebetter: (thaaat doesnt sound right)

Yeah, that's part of where my campaign idea for more connections for new students is from.

Even though I'd spent so many years learning about magic society, it turns out the reality is quite different. Or maybe not different but 'more'. It's not a bad thing [ it is ] but... whoa.
onebetter: (bwuh?)

What made you love it, when you got here?

[ Even though she'd never expected any of this, how could she integrate so easily...? ]
onebetter: (pretty when surprised)

[ .... ah. That's what he'd been missing. He'd been all caught up in his preconceptions of what 'important' should look like that he'd forgotten to consider it from the perspective of those who didn't have any such reservations. ]

Thank you for explaining this to me. Understanding what makes people love this school... is going to be really helpful in making everyone more comfortable.

I don't want to hold up your campaigning any longer, you have voters to sway! But I really hope you make it.
