Eugenia's eyes go wide with everyone talking to her. She's probably not used to quite holding the attention of her entire class. Noticing some uneasiness, she clears her throat, "Don't worry! Yeah it's sad that some of my friends died, but every school has its tragedies, especially bigger ones like my former school! With such a small school like this one, we can have a happy and fun student life together with many dinners." Su-Ah's head perked up upon hearing the words 'Class Dinner'. That's all she heard apparently. "Oh my god. Eugenia. A fancy little event like that would be just perfect! I would just LOVE to tailor cute little outfits for everyone who is interested. This is a huge opportunity! Oh, and we could all get to hang out and become friends, I guess." "Oh! By the way, I usually go by U.G. or Yugi instead of Eugenia, which is kinda long and old ladyish. So please feel free to use that nickname, anyone!" Eugenia, or Yugi says very loudly to everyone as if none of them are reading books. "E-Er, if I may, I think Olive Garden is a bit below everyone's pay grade here," Ige stated. He brought out a notepad and began scribbling down some nonsense. "How about I take some orders here instead and find our caterer for you all? I can offer our purveyor of some delicious wagyu steaks or bluefin tuna. Oh...but what do we do for those with allergies? I also failed to offer any vegetarian options..." Yugi lightly cringes at herself, "Oops! Yeah, sure, I guess the lasagna at Olive Garden isn't quite sumptuous enough! Silly me! Let's work together, Ige!"

"Ohoho... An opportunity at fine dining presents itself...? I've only heard incredible things about wagyu steak. I believe I deserve to try it... hehehe."
"Yugi? That's just like what Yves' game is called! I will call you that from now on, then."

She then turned to Yves. "Say, you were telling me about the cute little monsters on your Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Which one's your favorite?? I can probably come up with something relating to that...." Su-Ah smiles, her mind already going through an absurd number of outfit designs for people she had barely spoken to. Yves quickly whips her head around, offering Su-Ah a nervous smile. "O-oh, right! We, or, I, were talking about that. You were letting me talk to you, about that. Which's really kind of you...Um, I have a lot of favorite cards, kinda." Yves goes quiet for a moment, a bit of pink dusting to her cheeks as she stares down at her hands, which are painted the same baby blue and pink as her shoelaces. :) " I- that's very nice of you to offer to make an outfit, or something, for me, but I don't really think I'd look good in uh, anything, based off my favorite cards... I just don't, y'know, um..."

"That's great news!" Yugi glances at Yves hoping desperately for approval. "I will have to learn it since it's my namesake! If we make a Yu-gi-oh! club it'll look really good on a college application, for those of us who will still need to go to college after this. I do need to join at least a few clubs."

Nico approaches Felix after the introductions finish. "Hey!" He said, greeting the boy. "Sorry for calling you short. You probably get it a lot. I know I do." He chuckles. "I didn't mean anything by it, I was just surprised. I hope we're cool." He extends his right hand for a handshake. Felix froze up as Nico approached him, and if he didn't look like a deer caught in headlights before, he certainly did now. He stared at his hand for a more than few moments, hesitating, before taking it and giving it a little shake. "I-It's okay. It's, um, it's not like it's new to me," he half-heartedly laughed. "B-But we're cool, don't worry." He perked up a bit at the mention of a class dinner, however, and for once, seemed to loosen the tension in his shoulders. "Ooh, a class dinner sounds amazing...! I-If I was able to get the right amount of ingredients, I'd make everyone's dinners myself if I could! Granted, it'd take a while, not to mention that it'd require a lot of ingredients and work for one guy... b-but the Ultimate Chef has to prove to be worth the title, right? Cooking for a crowd could be a start." He paused for a moment, then shook his head. "... I-It's probably better if we get it catered, though. They're professionals and are way more familiar with how to serve a crowd," he sheepishly added.

This poor girl's gonna get whiplash if she keeps jerking around so suddenly, but she isn't good enough at handling one conversation at a time, let alone two. Yves gives U.G. the same awkward smile she gave Su-Ah. "Yeah, it is kind of funny, isn't it? That, uh, you go by Yugi. Because I'm here, and I play Yu-Gi-Oh!... n-not that I'm saying your name is funny, I think it's nice, just the coincidence is... um, funny. There's an awkward second of silence while Yves shuts her eyes, biting her lip, before rebooting, "I'd be happy to teach you, or something, if you actually wanna like, learn...! I'd be happy to teach anyone who wants to, it'd be fun to have some friends to play with. A club though, I don't know if I'd be able to handle all that...

Nico laughs. "That's a relief! I didn't want to make any enemies on our first day! Let's talk some more later, okay?"
Nico then wanders off to possibly go talk to some of the others gathered there. Once out of sight of Felix, he breathes a sigh of relief, glad things seemed to go well with the chef.

Silly me! Let's work together, Ige!" "Okay..! Sounds good..!" Ige smiled. He opened up his briefcase, unleashing an overwhelming amount of documents and phone numbers. "Let's see...we'll need a list of purveyors to choose from, chairs, tables, live entertainment, an allergen-friendly menu, perhaps an open bar should you all really want one..."

Hawk quietly stood and approached Ige, picking up the sheafs of paper with care.
"Mr. Tsutomu, perhaps it would be wiser to shorten the list to merely food and drinks. After all, we shouldn't burn all of our energy now, when the school year has just begun."
The older man smiled, ever so gently, and laid the stack of papers down on top of a nearby desk.
"You already do so much for your employer. One shouldn't ask you to do the same for people you barely even know."

Yugi is encouraging I’ve all the way up until the second Hawk takes the papers. “That is so true! I don’t want Ige to be overwhelmed since he seems very busy! I should be all set to lead things either way since I’m used to doing event planning!”
Quite animated, she bounces back to talking to Yves, “Oh don’t worry about the overhead! I’ll make sure the club happens no matter what! Just show up and be ready to game and have fun! I can’t wait!” The teen gives her signature huge grin to the card game player.
In another second, she turns to the Ultimate Chef, “Wait, Felix! You are invaluable! If you’re excited about sharing your food, there’s definitely a chance we can fit you in the dinner somehow. If you have a good idea to pair with the wagyu beef, let me know! Don’t worry there’s no hard commitments and I’ll handle the organization!”

"Olive Garden? Italian food? I think I'll give that a hard pass." Calvin said as he puts his hat back on his head. "I had an hanker to have an cowboy meal like the kind my folks makes back hum."
"From the sound of it, it'll be a hog-killn' time for everyone here." He chuckled at the thought.

Yugi gives Calvin a pleading look. “Well, we can do something that suits your sensibilities! And there’ll have to be more options than just wagyu beef. Please let me know your preferences since I really want you to be able to go. Maybe chili?”

"Hmm..? Oh, I suppose..." Ige said in response to Hawk.
Ige put away the papers, feeling a little silly.
"That being said, we're not necessarily strangers. Uh, well, we are...but my employer should be here to join you soon. Might as well try to make a good first impression for him... a haha..ha..."
The weary assistant let out a dejected sigh before crumpling to the floor.
"Except where is that f*cker anyways?!"

Once out of sight of Felix, he breathes a sigh of relief, glad things seemed to go well with the chef. "Um, o-okay then," Felix awkwardly replied, watching as Nico left. Shoot, did he just... make plans to talk to someone? Oh, no, that wasn't good. But for now, he breathed his own sigh of relief. Talking to others, especially one-on-one, was not his strong suit.

Calvin nods when asked if he'd like some chili.
"Some chili would sounds nice. I reckon we should toss in some cornbread. They goes nicely with the chili." The cowboy remarked as he looks to Eugenie. "You should try a cowboy meal one of these days, partner. They're really delicious."

"Chili...? Cornbread...?" Su-Ah pouted.
"By all means, there's absolutely nothing wrong with these foods, I enjoy them quite often... But wouldn't it be interesting to try something new and expensive-- I mean, exciting? Can I still get the wagyu...?"

"Except where is that f*cker anyways?!" "Jeez, should we start a search party? You're supposed to search for missing persons as soon as possible," Yugi says with great sincerity, scared for her classmate. Calvin nods when asked if he'd like some chili. "Some chili would sounds nice. I reckon we should toss in some cornbread. They goes nicely with the chili." The cowboy remarked as he looks to Eugenie. "You should try a cowboy meal one of these days, partner. They're really delicious." The girl in the striped sweater looks around bashfully, "Oh, I guess I could! Yeah, I'll try it! Just let me know where to go! Am I going to your mom's house?" Yugi then looks to Su-ah, sensing some hesitation from the cooler girl, and immediately bows in apology, "Of course Su-ah! I'm interested in the wagyu beef as well! I'm just making sure our classmates can all be satisfied by the selection. Hopefully I can request budget for multiple entrees..." She then opens a notebook and jots down some notes: Yugi's Notes:
Clubs to establish: * Yu-gi-oh! Club
Events to plan: * Class Dinner * * Ige knows caterers * * Wagyu beef * * Cowboy chili for Calvin * * Is Felix interested in cooking at all? "Hey everyone! Please let me know if you have dietary needs or wants for the Class Dinner! It's very important that everyone be able to come!"

Calvin was silent for a moment after hearing Eugenie's question about going to his mother's house.
"I... I might will see about that, partner." The cowboy said as he pulls the brim of his hat over his eyes.

"Expensive?" Hella finally spoke up in response to Su-Ah. "Can't say we really need to go all out on such short notice do-" She pauses as if she were thinking to herself. "No, maybe we should. Someone who can pay anyway." "Hey everyone! Please let me know if you have dietary needs or wants for the Class Dinner! It's very important that everyone be able to come!" Hella jumps a bit. "Christ..." Is murmured. "Nope, I'm good with anything edible."

Hawk returned to his seat, shifting his weight around to get comfortable, before a thought occured to him.
Who's paying for all of this?
He decided not to voice this specific thought aloud.

"Sushi..." Neuron mumbled to himself, seemingly only audible to the librarian.
"Hey."
As he slowly walks towards the loud group discussing dinner, he began to put himself in the conversation. "Would you need some help in the decorations?"
"By the way ladies, if you are to make a club about— Yugioh, I believe you'd need an adviser. Maybe Sir Hawk here could help~~" He said as he giggles at the end.

"Hey everyone! Please let me know if you have dietary needs or wants for the Class Dinner! It's very important that everyone be able to come!" Yves raises her hand like a nerd lol "Oh, uh, I'm allergic to shellfish. I don't know if it would come up or anything, but, yeah. I just thought I'd mention it, since it's pretty severe actually..." "By the way ladies, if you are to make a club about— Yugioh, I believe you'd need an adviser. Maybe Sir Hawk here could help~~" He said as he giggles at the end. She sits a little more upright as the TA shifts his attention to the Yu-Gyoh! club business, nodding hesitantly in response. "Right, um, I didn't think of that, thanks, Mr. Itsunoi... That's a good point. It'd be nice if Mr. Hawk would help like that." Yves smiles, for a split second, and then immediately frowns, wringing her hands, "Though to be honest I didn't think we were seriously gonna make a club... not that I don't want to... uh, I don't wanna disappoint anyone if they do wanna join a Yu-Gi-Oh! club but I just didn't expect anyone to want to join if we did make one but then I might be the center of attention and I don't know if I could really handle being like a club leader or anything, but I also don't want to assume that I'd be given a p-position of authority just because I'd be the person teaching everyone, probably, and-" Yves descends further into a rambling train of nonsense so I think we can just cut it there.

Kameron chuckled to himself as the room started to get boisterous. Things seemed to be going great already.
"Frankly speaking, St. Hope's is pouring a lot of money into this. They really want it to be successful! If a fancy dinner somewhere is what the class needs, then I'm sure the principal will be more than happy to have the school pay for it." Somewhere far off, the principal felt an inexplicable shiver run down his spine. "I can help organise it, but if you want to take charge, Yugi, please, go right ahead! It sounds like a great way to gain experience.
"Of course, we've got a kitchen set up here too. The chefs we've hired for daily catering are world-class, I hear! They're not arriving until tomorrow though..." He trailed off, only just now realising he had no way to feed the entire classroom of people in front of him. "Uh, well, that is, today's a special day! Being the opening day and all. Now's a good a time as any to host that class dinner!" There were going to be some frantic phone-calls later.

“Right, okay Mr. Fields! I am fine with takihg on all the event planning,” Yugi gives a quick bow to her teacher. “I will petition the principal to give us money! I think that this is imperative to help us bond and get a new start after any struggles we’ve had before transferring here, such as any car accidents! Plus some students need to get along better!” This comment isn’t supposed to come across as snide, but she can’t help it.
The girl starts scribbling away in her notebook, “Absolutely no shellfish! Gotcha, Yves!”
“Neuron, sir, please help where you can. If you would like to help with decor, I’ll reach out! Though it seems we’re on a tighter timeline than I thought! This is a little faster than homecoming even is!”

Korrigan gives a solemn nod and observes the room before muttering to himself. "I hope not, either." He uneasily adjusts his scarf and returns to his seat before peering over at what Kenji is reading. The book he was reading seemed to be... a bland third rate romance novel. An unusual choice for sure, but it strangely didn't seem that Kenji was enjoying the experience either, just monotonously reading it aloud softly, not paying attention to what was happening. Lucky for Korrigan, since he didn't seem like the type who liked to be snooped on. His ears perked hearing Kameron talk about the free dinner for the students and he immediately closed his book shut before speaking up. "We're eating out tonight now? I wouldn't mind coming along as well. Surely the principal wouldn't mind paying for his beloved staff's dinner as well. Besides, we're gonna need chaperones, right? Can't have you brats running around and causing mayhem and whatnot". He grunted wearily, despite his sudden insistence to join in on this very social event. "That good with you right, Kam? Think we could all start this sem on a good foot that way, too."

Somehow shocked by the librarian's response, Neuron excitedly exclaimed, "Oh, we won't be paying for ourselves? That's a relief~ I just bought all my personal art supplies, so I'm a bit tight on budget. What a deal for me!"
He looked at the librarian and said, "And you'd have some extra money to save up for some shoes~"

Yugi, smelling blood in the water, weaves her way over to the librarian, “Mr. Lopez, if you’re interested in chaperoning the class dinner, could I please collect your signature for showing to the principal? I do need some dedicated chaperones just to call the police in case of any disaster. But Mr. Lopez I will be perfectly aware of all the risky scenarios and I will be preventing them before they happen!”
She drafts a quick form for Kenji and tears it out of her notebook, handing it to him.
“Okay I’m going to start calling food places!” Yugi goes over to the stack of notes from Ige and starts reading through them.
“Geez, this is going to be a lot of work. I’m just going to tell them I’m with St. Hopes and that the new school is willing to pay. I can handle everything you guys!” Yugi says, looking visibly overwhelmed. She probably would accept help from other students if they offered.

Kameron probably hadn't counted on the staff also mooching off the school's cash, but figured it was best not to worry about it. "Sure!" he responded to Kenji. "Think of it as a special treat for all of us dedicated enough to show up on the first day!" He guffawed, glad no-one was getting snippy about how underprepared the school was.
"A Yu-Gi-Oh club might be a bit too specific. It's an unusual class here, with so many diverse and unique interests. Let's go with a board game club," he then said, making a note. "Anyone have any other suggestions? Though there's only 12 of you here: you might struggle to find members! Don't go overboard."
He took a look around at the various students. "I see there's some adventurers here! Some kind of outdoors club, maybe an explorers club, seems like a good idea. I'd happily be the adviser for that! St. Hope's is in a good location for some local expeditions."

"I'm interested in the explorer's club and will want to help out if possible." Calvin commented, pushing the brim of his hat up so his eyes were visible to the others. "In fact, if some of ya'll like, I could teach you how to ride a horse. I got experience with riding horses, becase I have my own horse back hum."
