This is a proposition for the prom court candidates.
We, the sophomore class, were talking about the upcoming elections and realized we have no idea where any of you stand on some important issues. We'd like to invite you to a Pre-Election Prom Debate, date and time negotiable, for you to clarify some of these.
You see, you can give as many cookies as you want, but until we know at what point you'd kill a man (among other issues,) we're not really comfortable casting a ballot. I'm sure you understand.
Would you do this?

Wow. So serious, baby bird. As for me? No thanks. I appreciate the nomination, but I'm not really running.

VOTE LEO FIORI FOR PROM KING
Quidditch Captain & Distressingly Large Turtle

Etc., etc.

[odder]

But is being a turtle enough for him to want to preserve Goosey's habitat? This is very important, and I wonder.

[tyhawkeswood]

Is the lake in danger? I wasn't aware.

[theniceboy]

Leo is very invested in the healthy preservation of Goosey's habitat.

[wilhelmeana]

What are the CIRCUMSTANCES? What's this man done that would warrant KILLING??

[odder]

That's the line we'd like to explore. On a scale from "mouth-breathed in your coffee order every day for a week" to "stole your prom crown, also killed your parent," at which point would murder be appropriate?

[wilhelmeana]

• MOUTH-BREATHED IN YOUR COFFEE. So long as it's ONLY breathing, it's not enough to warrant MURDER, unfortunately. But I'd file a complaint ALL THE WAY up the ladder to get them FIRED.


• STOLE YOUR PROM CROWN. ONLY if it's already mine by vote. Contrary to rumour, I WON'T try to kill people for a position.


• KILLED YOUR PARENT. INTERESTING DILEMMA. Is it a parent I like, or a parent I'm BARELY TOLERATING in my life?

[un_kept]

A debate would be awesome.

Let's do it.

[odder]

Wonderful.

[casperkim]

This is absurd.

[odder]

You mean you don't agree with being informed?

[casperkim]

I mean that the opinions of the 'prom court' don't matter because they have no authority and this is a waste of time.

[solveforx]

Kill a man or debate? Because I would maybe kill a dude if it meant I didn't have to talk in front of people.

[odder]

Hm. At all, or for how long?

[ulixes]

You know, this is looking less like prom royalty and more like a prom republic. Not that I'm complaining. Just didn't expect to be soft-shoeing for my constituents before I turned 18, is all.

[theniceboy]

What does soft-shoeing mean?

[odder]

It's a vote, so it was never really a monarchy anyway. The people have the power.

[iliya]

Finally. A practical way to choose between you, Cameron and Wilde.

[quinning]

[...] Is he a Red Wings fan?

[odder]

Does that make it easier?

[sunsoutgunsout]

k but will the debate have cheer sections

[odder]

How would you debate cheer? I'm curious.

[gonnabefamous]

SURE!

Can we also do a TALENT SHOW?

[unregrettable]

How do you know I haven't already killed a man?

[sylla]

I'm surprised they even let the sophomore class vote at all.
