Luann


It's her art project and she's not even going to help design the dress? Her whole contribution is to wear it? Everybody's done a group project where one or more of the group members was a total load, but generally this isn't seen as a positive thing you want your protagonist to do.

She had better take it to Gunther’s class first. If it goes to Bozo’s class first, it might end up being shredded, doused in water, set on fire, or Bozo might take a liking to it himself…

I still can’t see how a dress qualifies as an engineering project, unless it was also a nuclear powered exoskeleton with full armour protection and a plasma laser weapons system….??

It’s a good thing he is probably wearing a combination of “Hai Karate” and "Sure"…though, by now, they’ve probably turned into “Tapout” and "Doubt"….
–
If Luann didn’t wear it, his next logical step would have been to make the chair wear it… and as last resort, there’d be “Plan C” ….this time, the “C” being for Chuck Norris…..

(Psssst, Hey Gunth? Over HERE. Look after You’re DONE with that ‘Dress,’ sneak over to Brad and ask if You can be a Groomsman and escort ‘Maid of Honor’ Luann down the aisle on the Wedding Day. Oh don’t Worry. He’s so Giddy Now, You can talk Him into ANYTHING. Anyway, when You’re All standing before Minister/Shaman/Warlock, and the Wedding Vows are being Said, make SURE You are Holding Lu’s hand the Whole Time. Why, You ask? Well there is a little known proviso in traditional Wedding Vows, that states that ‘ANY Couple Standing and Holding Hands during the Ceremony, is Automatically MARRIED.’ VIOLA!!!
Instant “Dream Come True,” Gunther, Old Pal! Hey, Don’t take MY Word for it. LOOK It Up! Just make SURE You Two have a (a-hem) “Memorable” Wedding Night before legions of the Stunned, Angry ‘Fans’ DE-MAND an Annullment.
‘Why am I doing this’ You ask? Well, the ‘Never Gunther’s’ have Vowed to leave whatever Country ‘They’ are In, if You and Luann EVER Got Married. I just wanna see ’em PACK.
For FUN, of Course…..,)

“Quarts,” SMORTS!
Gunther! FOR-GET “OJ,” Who is up for Parole next year, and MEASURE Tiffany for Something. I Dunno! Work it into Your Enginnering Project. You know, “Load Bearing and Comparitive Bra Sizes,” or some such. Have Tiff and Lu standing side by side for Demonstration Purposes, in Your Class. With Luck, maybe the Two of them will Start Fighting.
You’ll get at least a “B+.”

I asked because it seems like she's somewhere mid-teens or so, which makes this old rich guy showering money and things on her seem extremely sketchy.
