Suddenly a pair of hands grabs you the armpits and yanks you into the air. With a shocked gasp you look at your captors.
The one holding you limply in the air is the brunette girl from before, if memory serves you right, her name is Leonie and at the door stands the masked guard.
You might have gotten a little distracted. That was weird.
Leonie looks you over with gleaming, blue eyes. "Hello cutie! Woah! So light!" She shakes you a little and glances at her comrade excitedly. "Just look at her! *Hah.* SO CUTE~" She coos starstruck.
"Stop that, it took us long enough...And it's a living being, not a toy."
Far from letting you go, she starts to spin around with you still in the air. "Can I keep her~? Can WE keep her? The barracks could use such a cutie! It's so dour and messy in here these days! She's just perfect! *Hah* PERFECT!"
"You want to keep her? Better get in line... Also, with our 'salary'?" The other jokes? albeit in a serious way.
A little afraid of falling... And a little nauseous, you keep to your role. "A-a-are y-you heeeere to h-heeelp cleaning?" You squeak with as much honey you can muster, still floating limply.
Yet, it only makes the girl more excited. The spinning, shakes, poking, and questionable nuzzles continue until the other guard forces you down and scolds her.

Soon, all of you leave the half-clean classroom. Since you already know why, you ignore it when they explain themselves, and you look over to Alex who evidently tries to ignore you. Heh.
Once you are moving towards the office, you lean in to Alex. "Where did you get that maid outfit, in drama club?"
For a moment he evidently thinks of a witty reply, but then gets all tomato-red and stammers: "I, well, madam, I... Well, the girls... You see...eh, And... dorm, And then, they... Eh... I don't want it!... I'm busy!"
That didn't help much...
You want to continue, when he turns away and loudly proclaims to the masked guard. "A-as you *cough* can see, Mistress Jaqueline was right! The school failed to include the needs of it's diverse students. Madam Aki, being Japanese, is culturally predisposed to relieve stress by cleaning. She broke the rules and left the dorm, yes, but she was rised this way, and did everything she could to benefit everyone with her particularity. If the school desires to bring equality it needs to alter laws that discriminate against some, meanwhile favouring others. Madam Aki is blameless, if not outright deserving of a reward! It's the blind, heartless system that oppresses her!" He clears his throat. "That's why students should have more power in deciding policy, including internal planning and organization. This is the message of Mistress Jaqueline to the headmaster!"
The masked guard scoffs. "Don't get ahead of yourself, kid..."
"We understand." The guard girl says, then starts walking undisturbed.
Without looking at you, Alex states. "You will have to deliver it, Aki." Then hands you a letter... Great job, Jaq.
