#//i am of the mindset that clive and penny are equally cringe but in slightly different ways.

Several days late, but eventually, the Clive has Arrived!
Just like the annual Naranja-Uva Summer Sandwich Squabble, or NUSSS! Tune in this weekend to watch your favorite students, staff, and even celebs?!?! attempt to make sandwiches in a variety of wacky and comedic scenarios, such as:
Balancing the sandwich on a yoga ball!
Using ingredients requested in MewTube MegaChats!
Battling for possession of key ingredients!
Three-Legged Race style teamwork!
Being sung at by a Jigglypuff!
Whatever unexpected weirdness comes up and gives Director Clavell a migraine at the last minute!
This year, all proceeds from the NUSSS go to speeding our current accessibility renovations of the school, with all excess being donated to the Open World Project--a charity dedicated to bridging the challenges that make it difficult for disabled young people starting out on journeys! We hope you tune in or show up this Saturday and Sunday!
Now, without further ado, it is time for the next installment of:
Clive Update!
Today we have a guest from behind the scenes who needs little to no introduction: the girl, the myth, the one who saves me from many an episode of cringe: Miss Penny!
Tumblr media
...Did you have to look so... disappointed in this photo?
It's my personal form of protest. Also, for the record, right before you took this photo you had just asked me what AO3 is. I don't know what face you were expecting.
...Clive, what the fuck are these colors?
It's your red and blue hair! I figured your text had to match your stylin', snazzy 'do... No? No.
Pink. I just want pink. Thank you.
Anyways, did you really run out of guests this fast? What, did Rika drop you or something because you were going to ruin her brand? Shit, I bet that's exactly what happened.
Language! And she just... needed to reschedule. Very busy woman.
Mhm. Yeah. That's what they all say. That's like saying you went to a hotel with a friend and the only available room had one bed...
What?
AO3 things. I'll explain later.
Anyways, Pride? Obviously it's pretty important to me. I mean... really. I don't think anybody's guessing the programmer girl with a big hoodie and two-tone hair is super cishet.
My experience of being free to be myself is something built off of generations of work and protest by LGBT+ people. The first Pride was a riot spearheaded by trans women of color, and it's important to remember our roots to see how far we've come, and how far we have left to go. So Pride, to me, is a continued, "We're here and we're weird! And we're not stopping anytime soon!"
...Shit, that's just Team Star, isn't it.
Penny... I... I think that's the most comprehensive, educational answer we've had here! And I didn't even have to ask you...
Y-yeah, of course it is. You're welcome.
...Anyways, uhh, what's your follow up question? You do have one, right?
...Hm. How are you liking it here on campus, now that Team Star has re-integrated into classes?
W-wha... I wasn't expecting that one, dude! I'm... getting along okay! I've got... my greatest treasure... here, after all.
And Nemona... annoyingly loud as she is... has been really nice to me too. Plus, I've got my Veevees! And of course, how could I forget my best. Pal. Clive. Who's definitely not just cringe incarnate tormenting me until the end of my short, miserable little life.
That's a JOKE, before you start getting all emotional on me, by the way!
I forgot how wounding teenagers can be... Ah! My heart! It has been pierced! And it is all Miss Penny's fault!
Geez. You're not half bad... sometimes. Come on. In return for this, you're proofreading my new My Palafin Academia hero/rival hurt-comfort slow burn fic.
I don't understand the meaning of half of those words, but I am terrified nonetheless!
