—What's the big deal? Anyway, that's really cool, Bell! 🥰 —Nira smiled, hoping that her mother wouldn't be like the mother of some other friend. —Great, Shero! 😘
After waiting for Elliot to return with good news, the girl nodded approvingly at his report: —Excellent work, Comrade Elliot! 👍 The Academic Homeland will not forget you!

After receiving the keys to one of the empty classrooms, the girls, with the support of a powerful mask-maker, quickly set it up for their first meeting.
—Well, it's not bad for a start. —Nira began. —First, thank you all for responding, Cass for the idea, Elliot for the help, um, at the highest level! I think we'll make a great team! 🥳
Looking at everyone with a confident gaze, the girl continued:
—As always, I'll try to be brief: before we start working, we have several issues on the agenda that I would like to discuss and get your opinion. Regarding the general organization: who wants to do what. Regarding the competition itself: deadlines, overall style, event plan, prizes. Regarding finances: expenses for equipment, salaries, sales. Regarding promotion: will we attract people from the city or will we limit ourselves to our academy.
Nira paused briefly to allow what she said to sink in with her "colleagues".
—As for my suggestions: I would like to take on the financial part, and if possible, help the others as much as I can. 😇 Of course, we will do many things together, but in general, I would like to know your preferences, if you have any. Regarding deadlines: we need to clarify with the administration, but I think no earlier than the end of the month or at the beginning of next month. After all, we need to run an advertisement, collect applications, prepare everything for the event, and so on. Regarding the overall style: I generally liked how it was at the lecture on photography, but maybe it should be a little more serious, after all, we are going to sell it... Regarding prizes, I am open to suggestions, maybe someone has seen something interesting in the city? As for expenses, we will need a photo booth and a budget for purchasing prizes. I am going to discuss all this with Miss Starlight, as well as a reward for us as organizers. Hobby or not, any work should be rewarded in some way. 🧐 Finally, will we attract people from the city to sell the magazine or tickets to the competition, as Elliot suggested? There are pros (we will almost certainly break even) and cons (more control over the quality of the "content").
After finishing the list, Nira took a short breath:
—That's how I see it. If we solve all this right away, then we can move on to the interesting part and not waste more time on boring things. 😊

"I... I'm only sixteen, what are you talking about?" — the refitter was a little surprised by what they suddenly started talking about.
— No, nothing like that...
