speech in the making! private

[fancypost bgcolor=white; borderwidth=0px; width: 436px; height: 200px; overflow: auto;][justify]Pallene blinked, anxiety glossing over her blue eyes. She was here to make an announcement, a long overdue one. The kitten was terrified out of her mind right now-- her heart persistently pounded her chest. The alabaster kit paced for a brief moment, wording and preparing herself for the speech she was to deliver. Hopefully the reasons she came up with didn't make her seem egotistical, that would be embarrassing to her. She had practiced the speech at home, all on a sheet of paper(with awfully crude handwriting). She left it at home to challenge herself, and she was now regretting it a bit. She couldn't remember it all-- she'd have to go on a whim for some fragments of the sermon. Muttering a small prayer under her breath, the ivory child loudly cleared her throat, hoping to congregate some attention from her fellow Clanmates. Here goes nothing...

"Um, greetings, Clanmates. I'm sure you are aware of the lack of activity in StellarClan, for I have noticed as well. My name is Pallene Andromeda, and I am presenting this speech for the opportunity of becoming a scientist. Alternatively, the assistant position works just as well for me, due to my lack of knowledge in the medical field. My reasons that I believe I should possess this position are as follows; one, I am young, two, I am attentive, three, I have little understanding in herbs, four, I am physically weak, and five, I want the best for StellarClan. I... I'm aware that those reasons aren't the best, but I will do my utmost hardest to provide justification for my these quintet of reasons."

"For starters, I am fairly young, and I have an advantageous amount of years left in me. I'm not implying that the other scientist applicants are geriatric, if that's what you are thinking... what I am attempting to imply is that I have a plethora of time to study herbal books in the library and watch other scientists, and learn and be relied on by my Clanmates for many seasons to come. I don't having any intentions of dying early, being captured, or anything of the like, after all. I plan on living out my life in StellarClan, from my birth to my ultimately demise."

"Another persuasive fact of mine is that I am attentive. My ears are a little sensitive, as I've came to learn. I practically can't hear anything else as anyone is talking to me-- whether it'd be a better scientist or someone who requires medical attention. My ears can be a little disadvantageous, because loud voices can hurt me quite a bit. But, I will do my my best to overcome my pain and do my responsibility when I am desperately needed, of course."

"Thirdly, I am learning about herbs. I've attended a herb training session. I wasn't on my best performance, but I most definitely learned from that moment. Ever since that day, I've been studying in the athenaeum for a good amount of time, and I feel as if I am learning more and more on each passing day. I'm not well experienced, granted, and I've never been in a serious case where my . But I'd feel as if I'd be fairly confident if challenged."

"This isn't a really plausible reason, but I... lack physical strength, to say the least. The heat of battle does make me a bit queasy. I'm not sure what factor of violence nauseates me, but I can clarify that it is not the scent of blood. If anything, the body fluid activates me. It pulls me up into action. Basically, I'd feel a lot safer supporting my Clanmates from the sidelines-- good for both me and them. If anything, I'd get demolished in a skirmish..! Not just because I'm small and inexperienced, but I'm weak and causing people pain doesn't feel too good."

"Um... I think the last thing I have to say-- or at least about the topic of becoming a scientist, is that I want to do this for the best of our home. Living without a scientist can have treacherous repercussions, including death. If I become a scientist, I would do my absolute best and remain active through and through, and never leave anyone out to die. I'm not the most present person in the Clan, yes, but I will most definitely try to make myself a common face, someone that you will often see, inside and outside of my work place."

"I-In conclusion, I believe I should be a scientist, or an assistant, because I am young and attentive, have little experience in the medical field, am physically useless in battle, and because I want the best for StellarClan. Hopefully I explained enough for your standards... with that, I'd like to bring up a second topic for StellarClan; how to make it better. I'm not very good at coming up with ideas, to be honest. But, uh... how would a 'buddy system' sound? Does everyone know how does work? And we could have some more badge events and nice little competitions with our allies. And... ah... well, we've already got mass adoptions. If I get the position I desire, I'd be adding more to any litters featuring Callisto-- a HP/sHP sister could possibly catch more eyes, hopefully."

Pallene exhaled, surprised at how fast she finished. Or at least, that's how it seemed to her. She glanced warily at the crowd she supposed she gathered, then looked away to the side, suddenly feeling a lot more bashful than earlier. She screwed her eyes shut and muttered encouragement. You did okay, calm down, you did okay, right?
