Let's Get Down to Business, to Defeat the Wiz

[employeeoftheyear]

[Hello everyone! On Wednesday morning there will be notes slipped under each of the dorm room doors.]


SPONGEBOB AND LSP'S TOTALLY NOT SUSPICIOUS PARTY
Sunday @ 5pm - Whenever we're done!
Near the woods (at the bonfire!!!)

[It sounds totally fine!

Spongebob spends most of the day prepping with LSP to get ready. Making snacks, decorating, the works! And when the time arrives, they practically drag everyone living to the Bonfire. And it's quite a cute little set up! Like last time, there are a bunch of nice snacks set up, as well as blankets and pillows. As well as the roaring bonfire in the middle of it all.

The moment everyone gets closes enough, however, Spongebob makes a tape ring around everyone. It's decently large, so they have plenty of leg room, but it definately confides them to a close space.

He then clears his throat and speaks loudly as he walks around the circle, looking serious in a way that would probably look intimidating if he didn't look like an angry kitten.]

Dear fellow classmates! I have gathered you here today because it's come to my attention that we need to work on our friendship and trust skills. You're all my family and I love you but we can't expect to defeat the Wizard and save our fallen comrades if we're worried about us killing each other!

[Spongebob stops suddenly look at the group.]

So! LSP and I have taken it upon ourselves to make sure no one leaves this circle until we have a plan to destroy the Wizard and all agree we're going to be best friends with each other! We made plenty of snacks so you guys don't gotta worry about starving.

[Honestly here anyone could easily just pick Spongebob out and walk out with him but.

The emotional toil that would be! Besides, a meeting could be good right now!]

GENERAL CHAT

[employeeoftheyear]

[Anything else!]

[defyingfrigidity]

[.... Oh, Spongebob. Never change.]

How will a circle on the floor stop anyone from leaving?

[She doesn't look like she wants to leave or anything. She doesn't even look particularly bothered by the circle. She's just... curious.]

[sugarlumps]

If you try to cross it you'll get mysteriously grabbed and headlocked by an amazing purple hottie. Very mysterious and unexpected. Like magic.

[mayavericks]

[Maya looks very tempted to step over the line.]

You wouldn't headlock an injured person.

[comeandfindme]

Maya.

[ If she has to be here you have to be here. ]

[sugarlumps]

Not harder than I needed to.

[defyingfrigidity]

[Yeah, okay. She can play along with that.]

Magic, you say? That sounds like some pretty powerful stuff. Nothing I've ever read about comes close to those sorts of abilities.

[sugarlumps]

Very mysterious and powerful. And not dumb like the Wizard.

[defyingfrigidity]

Well then, I will very much respect this ominous force, and stay where I am.

[She'll give a small, but somewhat exaggerated bow.]

[feudalladyshandmaid]

I once found a magic circle that did just that.

[She's lying, but.]

[employeeoftheyear]

Yes!

[He looks absolutely confident.]

[defyingfrigidity]

[Oh, buddy... Elsa reaches out, ruffling his hair.]

Well. That's a good enough answer for me.

[Never mind the fact that that wasn't an answer at all. She'll go along with him, it's fine!]

[employeeoftheyear]

[He laughs a little as she ruffles his hair.]

I knew the circle was a good idea!

[defyingfrigidity]

[Such a sweet, easy to please soul...]

... Hey, Spongebob. You know how all of us talked about keeping in touch in some way or another after we escaped this place?

[brokeforgood]

[Dont mind her, Elsa. She’s just locking eyes with Elsa, and… putting. her toe. across the line.]

[employeeoftheyear]

FARRAH NO!!!

[He looks absolutely distressed.]

[brokeforgood]

What! [SHES NOT DOING ANYTHING.]

[employeeoftheyear]

You can't go over I promised you guys I'll get you together!!!

[Spongebob absolutely crying now.]

[defyingfrigidity]

[... Once again, never change.]

Do you really want to be hit with the full force of Spongebob's disappointed face if you do that, Farrah?

[brokeforgood]

Do what??? [She’s awful.]

[defyingfrigidity]

[She's just. Staring right at Farrah's foot.]

[sugarlumps]

[Hey Farrah, there's. Just. A hand on your shoulder.]

Hey Farrah, what's up?

[brokeforgood]

[There are a few people that Farrah is afraid of. Cassandra. Eurydice, wherever she may be. And… LSP right now.]

Oh, hey girl! [YEETING THAT SNEAKERED FOOT BACK INTO THE CIRCLE]

[sugarlumps]

Hey girl!

[Instantly friendlier, with zero malice.]

Have a smore or something, they're great.

[feudalladyshandmaid]

[Impressive work, Spongebob. Really.

Cassandra looks among the group gathered before her. Everyone still here, still alive. They managed to save one person - and with that, surely they could put an end to this now. There's a chance.

She looks into the fire... And she smiles.]

We've done a lot
Faced who knows what
Still though, we're not quite through yet.
We have so much to do, yet-
More than a thing or two, yet.

There's wounds we must heal
Plans to make real
Watch us and we'll do wonders
Sure we have made some blunders
We'll face them all head on-

[Cassandra turns, proper, to the group. A renewed sense of purpose sparkling in her eyes.]

We'll rise hand in hand
And retake this land
We're ready to stand and roar
Will we give up? No, never!
We're stronger than ever before!
