I chew on my bottom lip thoughtfully, mulling over everything that'd been said. I'm done with my code-red panic attack now, but there's still some serious considering to be done about this Hana girl. "Well, your Plan A isn't really going so well, Hana. Sorry, girlie, but I don't think you can get rid of the cliques that easily. Sure, you could pretend to be obnoxious and desperately unattractive," I muse, considering the idea Jake had thrown out. I take another glance at her porcelain features, and the idea disappears as quickly as it conjured itself in my short-attention spanned mind. She could try and feign whatever repugnance she thinks she can pull off, but there really is an art to being, well... unattractive. With my quirky personality and preference for pixelated avatars as opposed to skin and flesh, I've got a natural talent for being a major cock block. It's a bit harder to ward away the hormone-fueled wolves in this school, boy and girl alike, when you have a face like Hana's.
"It's a little harder than you think to escape that social ladder out there." I jumped off the power box, strolling casually towards Hana. I shook my head in an admittedly cliché fashion, clicking my tongue as the distance between us was diminished. I probably looked like the antagonist from Mean Girls, minus the little dog and pink overkill. "I don't think you realize what it's like to not have a clique. When you're alone in Elton, that means you're prey for everyone, even the bottom-feeders like me. Though I'd rather be at my laptop than antagonizing you," I add quickly, shaking my finger at Hana. I'm completely honest here; this girl just screams "I don't take shit from anybody." I wonder if she rides a motorcycle to school. With the leather jacket and combat boots, it would complete the bad-ass look.
"Point is, you're road kill when you're alone. It's why the system works so well... Nobody wants to face the world by themselves. It's like getting in a 1v5 trap tryna' snare the enemy jungle." Of course no one understands my League reference, but I continue anyway. "As tough as you look, you'll crack," I admit, shrugging my petite shoulders lazily.
"Plan B: I try my hand at the Jedi mind trick," I spin on the heel of my weathered, beat-up knock off converse, walking back towards my throne on the power box. Even though I'd just shut her down, Hana had definitely given me something to think about. The Cliqueless was more like an extracurricular activity than anything, but, well, what if we did something with it? We can use this redhead with a rebellion locked mindset to our advantage, can't we? The gears in my head begin spinning, but my academic deficiency is determined to keep me from orchestrating the Cliqueless' opening night. I look toward Izzy expectantly. With her intelligence, she can probably read minds by now, right?
