Irina tried to pay attention throughout the rest of the debate, but her heart wasn't in it. She knew the end result- Con didn't stand a chance. Roland had done a great job with the closing, but the rest of their side hadn't done well enough to make it matter. Irina deeply regretted her decision to m...

Stephanie's mouth twitched at each exiting person, finally culminating in a slightly displeased smile at Melissa's farewell. At least one another person remained at the table with them, Roy Archer. "We were gonna go shopping, y'know, prom stuff, things like that." she said. "I can't b...

((Irina Burlachenko continued from Debate Exposes Doubt )) Irina Burlachenko strode into the library, a determined look on her otherwise calm face. She had a job to do, albeit a job that she had given to herself and wasn't all that important in the grand scheme of things, but still. She walked over ...

Irina frowned throughout every arguement presented, her brow furrowing increasingly after each ending. She was still uncertain as to what she would say, and her lack of comfort with the issue was showing. She had to put on a display, a bit of a performance, to really sell her only idea. She'd have t...

"Well, I'm definitely going to prom. But I haven't asked anyone." Stephanie said in response to Roy's question. She absently twirled a lock of blonde hair around her finger, her favorite idle gesture since childhood, while she thought deeply about potential prom dates. Nobody really appeal...

Irina smiled at Max as he sat near her. Only a smile; she didn't want to go overboard as she had just done with Ilario. Just as Irina was about to settle back to her book, Max whispered something into her ear. "Hey, what'd I miss? What're we debating?" he asked. Irina twisted her neck a bi...

"Ugh, I hate mall parking." Stephanie Henderson adjusted her white sweater, a rather idle gesture that she often used. She was dressed for a walking day- flat, sensible brown flip-flops and a staid pink dress, an outfit that in her opinion was both classy and laid-back. She and her brother...

Irina gave the room a timid 'Hi' and shuffled around for a seat. It would feel awkward, for her at least, to sit directly next to any one person, so she opted to take the seat closest to the door. As Irina was getting settled in, she observed the next two people to enter after her, in nearly rapid s...

((Irina Burlachenko continued from Fencing )) Irina had forgotten to tie her heels properly. Great; now she was stumbling all over the school, holding a half-open backpack to her chest and risking a broken ankle. Her schedule was so out of whack it wasn't even funny. First she was late to Fencing, a...

Irina smiled and went to the girl's locker room to change as well. She tied her hair back and began to switch from her casual clothes to proper fencing attire, all the while thinking about how well the group had progressed. They'd all had natural talent, but their unity has a group and their real sk...

"Aaaand now I'm alone." Leona muttered to herself. She would've followed Jennifer, but she was actually hungry today and needed something to eat. The line was ungodly slow, and it took upwards of five minutes before Leona was examining the canteen for herself. Okay, so it wasn't all bad, a...

"That was fun." Irina said enthusiastically. She looked at the departing Ben and shouted "You did great!" just before the gym doors closed behind him. Reeling herself back in, Irina, glanced over at Asher with a shy smile. "So...how about a quick between?" she asked, us...

Leona took the chocolate bar from Geoffrey and smiled. "Thanks." she said. Leona took a bite from the bar and chewed for a moment. She was on a diet, but one bar wouldn't hurt. After all, she had eaten chocolate before and had no particular qualms about eating it again. "So, what scie...

"Most people haven't." Leona said, shaking Geoffrey's hand. With a smile, Leona looked over at Jennifer. "Dry throat? If this line speeds up, you should get a bottle of water...speaking of, Jeff, wanna sit with us today?" she offered. Leona wasn't usually one to make invitations,...
