So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits, I hope you have found a friend

Who: Whoever!
What: GRADUMACATION AND PROMS
When: The evening of June 2nd
Where: Das Stadium
Warnings: WHO KNOWS

One might find the stadium a little hot and humid for those used to a spring graduation ceremony. This fine evening the Academy is experiencing its first hints of summer, a warm breeze providing relief to those who would sit on the stadium floor, which had been rearranged into a platform overlooking neat rows of chairs meant to seat the gathered crowd of faculty and students. Towards the other end of the complex was the arrangement for the prom that was to follow. Food and drink, chairs and tables, each with a floral centerpiece, and, of course, a dance floor.

HEY DUDES! Here's how stuff is going to work. We kick off the log with GRADUATION. This part of the log will be divided into separate threads. I'll post them all at once, so feel free to hop around, mingle, post whenever, wherever.

HOWEVER, once the PROM starts, it will be up to you guys to post your own threads. Please check out last year's log if you'd like an idea of how this works. Everything after the thread titled "DISMISSAL" (I will post that in a bit, so don't post prom threads until I have that up!) will be considered prom, though don't let that stop you from continuing to post in the graduation section.

Please label all your threads appropriately! (Examples: "SHENANIGANS AT THE FOOD TABLE", "DANCE-OFF", "THE PUNCH IS SPIKED", "BOTHER X" In general, a location + what is going on in the thread is the way to go. Obviously, more than one thread can take place at the same location. 

Linking back and forth when and if you thread hop is very much appreciated. If things start to look a bit laggy, we'll bump to the next page. Most importantly, HAVE FUN, and let a mod know about any problems or concerns you might have!

DON'T FORGET THE COOL DUDES ON PAGE 2!

Looking overly pleased with himself after finishing up his 'motivational speech, Cave felt like taking a bow. So he did.

"Alright, now that the harsh, cold, and unpleasant truth is out of the way, let's open the floor to questions, shall we? Anyone, anyone at all. Just shout 'em out if you have 'em. Feel free. No stupid questions unless I call them so."

Haters hatin'

"HEY!"

Mac said. Trying to not seem outrageously pissed and ending up coming off as...slightly very pissed. Yeaaaah, making no sense.

"So what do ya tell students so they CAN be successful, huh? Just takin' your class?"

Hate recieved

"Well, normally I'd file that one under 'dumb questions', but I'm in an informative mood, so I'll answer anyway."

Cave lights a cigarette before his answer, taking an obnoxiously long time to light up before taking a puff.

"What I would tell students would be a vast assortment of techniques used for efficiency, sales, business, and economic purposes, with some base psychology thrown in for good measure. Essential knowledge, really. It wouldn't guarantee success, but guaranteed success isn't success worth having anyhow.

All of which I would say to my students, and only my students, so none of that concerns you, graduate."


As Cave speaks, he never frowns. He never raises his voice. To him, this was not cruelty. This was simply the truth. Quite frankly, he felt he was doing them a favor.

"I ain't a graduate."

Putting that out there.

"Just speakin' out. Cuz I think anyone can find success in doin' what they want."

Cave yawns loudly into the mic.

"Just because everyone CAN succeed, doesn't mean they WILL, son.

For every student that goes on to achieve success in this room, several won't. This isn't just me talking here, it's a cold hard fact of life.


Case in point, what do you want to do once you graduate?"
