I really like the idea of Blaze finding her! Since she slipped him that note in detention, it feels as though the two of them could form a bond, and having him be the one to discover her—and maybe help her process what she's just seen—would be a great way to begin establishing their rapport. That's just my opinion though, and I think all options would work! <33

I'd actually really like if Blaze is the one to find her, too. I think it'd make for a nice moment :)
Though, just one more thing @Lucrezia, will more kids be called into Mayhalm's office? I just figured since Odessa was that others will be too, and once Mary is found they might deduce she's the screamer and all that. Just wondering!
they/she or she/they

Good question! So, the reason Miss Mayhalm wants to speak with Odessa is because she is, of course, the prime suspect. If anyone else wants to send their character to her office, you definitely can, just so long as you have a good reason. For you, @KocoCoko, since Mary was the first to find the body, it would make sense that Miss Mayhalm or school security and/or law enforcement would want to speak with her, to ask her questions about what she saw.

As for everyone else, all of your characters were present during Odessa's fight with Sidonie, so any of you could be called into Miss Mayhalm's office (or be required to speak with security/law enforcement) to give a statement on what you witnessed, what the fight was about, any threats Odessa made, et cetera. To be clear, you don't have to write that kind of post, but if you want to, go for it! :D

More fan-art! <33

I tried very, very hard to give Evika a neutral expression in this one, so if it looks like faer smiling, that was 100% accidental. But, to be fair, I also didn't think Evika was smiling in the first picture I posted, so maybe I just don't know what a smile looks like?? (I'm not a smiler myself, so the whole concept is foreign to me, lol.)

Aww, cute! Mary looks like she's finally given up 'talking sense' to them lol. And looking back seems to be Blaze's favorite angle.

Also, on another note, I just realized that I completely forget to add glasses onto Mary's design when I first made her and I'm only just remembering it! It might be too late to go and change that now...

With glasses or without, she's so adorable!! <33 I love her. And I also love how much Odessa irrationally hates her, lol.

I did not expect everyone to be so receptive to Mary, but it's super nice you guys like her! And don't worry, Ari. I'm pretty sure anything you make is gonna be awesome :) !

Oh, and just as a little funny done in boredom, well here's a thing I made of Odessa saying Mary isn't scary or intimating, to which Mary tries to prove her wrong. She fails, but she's got the spirit.

And finally, about Odessa having irrational hate of Mary, I'd like to predict that the 2nd image is Mary and Odessa's relationship for (I'm guessing) 40% of the story.

Sorry for the long post, I had a lot of ground to cover. At least we have finally been introduced to the dreaded Miss Mayhalm!! *evil laugh* :D

Oooh. Very exciting!! Can't wait for the downfall more of the headmistress!

Also uh, speaking of her... I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I'm still debating on whether or not Mary would be questioned by police or sent to Miss Mayhalm. I doubt I'd really be able to portray her, though, since she just arrived and all. Sooo... yeah. Any thoughts?

It's a tough choice! I think you could definitely portray Mayhalm correctly, if you wanted to. The thing to keep in mind with her is that she's a very proper, very uptight disciplinarian. She's calm and collected, but with a spiky unfriendliness and general mistrust of her students. She's very intelligent, with a sophisticated vocabulary. And she has a bit of a sadistic streak, but she keeps her cards close to her vest, so you wouldn't be able to tell—though you may get occasional, subtle flashes of it (like her smirks at Odessa).

Yeah, there's no way I could do that. I could write fine maybe, and but trying her reactions to Mary being... Mary? Woof. I'd need a lot of guidance for just one bit of dialouge.
So, I'll probably just go with something else :(
