Command and Conquer: Generals rocks! Easily the best Westwood game to ever hit the shelves! It's like a cross of Age of Mythology and Red Alert 2! Call in emergency repairs, artillery strikes, bombing runs, in synch with your particle satellite beams, missile strikes, and troop movements! I played it once and was instantly hooked.

OK. Enough about that.

Um, I have this weird idea for a story that might not get off the ground. It's about this school populated by the following faculty and staff:
School Heads: Principal Kuno, Count Hanagoji, Yoneda Ikki
CAT Commandant & Vice-Commandant: Ikari Gendo & Fuyutsuki
Staff (They don't teach, but they're fun to put in anyway):
Medical 1: Mitsukake & Nuriko (I bet this would shock the male students)
Medical 2: Takani Megumi and Reinard Megumi (sweatdrop)

Girls' Counselor: Katsuragi Misato, Melissa Mao, Urd (!)

And so on... You get the idea, right? It's just so much fun to flesh out the characterization, I don't think I want to (or can write) a coherent plot for this. But since when did that stop me?
