Text Cut: Catch up #1

"18 here, Professor," Alice told her, along with many of the other students. But, really? Was she expected to pay attention to other places, too? SO many things these professors wanted her to know. It seemed that they were just supposed to learn everything outside of class and come to the lesson and spout out loads of answers.

Well, SHE was not capable of that.

Age? For THIS election? Well, Alice wanted to be able to vote, obviously, so it had to be pretty young. "I'd say anyone at Hogwarts should be able to, Professor," she stated, EYEING the people who had named any age older than fourteen. "It's our school, yeah? So everyone who goes here should get a say if they want." Like HER.

Ahem.

Alice tilted her head as the professor went on to describe some kind of Hogwarts student government. While she didn't have any answers about what the professor had asked, she DID have comments on that little story. "Snogging zones would be absolutely repulsive, professor." Just saying. And though that didn't have anything at all to do with the election talk, Alice felt the need to say it.

Just so no one would get any ideas about snogging zones NOW.

Because no. That was disgusting.

Questions? Alice ALWAYS had questions. "I'd ask why they were running, like everyone else, of course." That one was kind of obvious. "I'd want to know what their qualifications were, what their plans for the school were, all that." What else could she think of? Hmm. "Y'know what I think would be another good question to ask? Like, if they had to pick ONE, and only ONE issue that they think Hogwarts had to fix, what would it be and how would they go about fixing it? It's kind of like asking about their plans, but I think it's better to ask for only one, so we know what their priorities are."

Breaaaathe. Okay. That was enough talking for a bit.

.. oh, the lesson was over already? Oh. Well. Okay. At least she hadn't fallen asleep this time, yeah?

The person running for President promised some amazing things, such as butterbeer machines in the Great Hall and a Snog Zone in the Courtyard, and many people voted for him because of that...despite the fact that the Headmistress of that time would've never approved that and that this boy was responsible for loosing over 400 pts for his house that term...luckily he lost by three votes in the end."
