AITA for lying to get my daughter out of trouble?
So I (24M) adopted a girl (15F) with my husband three years ago. When we took her in, she didn't have any records and hadn't been to school in years, but she's an absolute genius! She's a quick learner and taught herself a lot of stuff and she aced the exam to get into this fancy private school that's supposed to be very good for getting students into college.
She hasn't said she'd been having any problems but on my day off I got a call that she'd been in a fight. According to the principal she's attacked some guys on the Lacrosse team after they pulled a harmless prank, but one member of the team, A (16M) said the lacrosse team started it by pulling on a Minervan girl's head feathers, which cause her to instinctively scratch at them, which lead to a fight.
Even without A's testimony it was kind of clear this was self defense but as it turns out, the mother of one of the lacrosse team members was already at the principal's office and since she apparently donates a large amount to the school regularly and was very close to convincing the principal to just expel my daughter and the other kids.
Now I'm very disillusioned with this school and planning to ask my daughter if she wants to transfer out but that's going to be even harder if she has an expulsion for fighting on her record on top of her spotty history, and the fight wasn't even her fault.
So here's where I might be TA. See when I arrived, neither the Principal or the mother recognized me as a parent, they recognized me as a member of local law enforcement (which I know will automatically make me ta to some of you but I really need advice please) and thought I was here to arrest my daughter and her friends.
I had no plans to but I sort of blurted out that if they let me take the problem students for the weekend, they could spend the weekend in our youth program and I basically implied that would be enough of a punishment nothing had to go on anyone's record. Since these two only cared about punishing my daughter for engaging in self defense they agreed, but we don't actually have that sort of program?
We don't often let people under 18 even in the base, I just made it up so my daughter wouldn't be expelled.
If it was just her we'd be fine but there are four other kids I have to take for the weekend now and we have nothing for them to do and I'm worried it'll be more trouble if I just let them go home and hope they don't say anything or get caught.
But here we are, so is this an abuse of power? Am I the TA for giving my friends extra work? Should I have said that one of the kids was my daughter?

“Cadets, this is a mission of utmost importance. However, it may be… unpleasant.” Cruger says, after summoning the rangers to the command center.
“Sir, we’re prepared to do anything you ask of us.” Sky says, his arms folded behind his back. “What is our assignment?”
“You are to attend Syd’s friend’s birthday party as her date.”
Sky blinks twice.
“…You can’t be serious.” He starts, crossing his arms.
“You want me to take Sky to Rika’s birthday party?!” Syd snaps.
hi im back for more.. 5 for the angst starters with toya and harumichi.. (or maybe 14..)
5. “You don’t own me.”/14. “I give up. You won.”
The day Toya came home with tears in his eyes and a bruised cheek was shaping up to be the worst day of Harumichi’s life.
He had just tried to offer some polite advice, but Toya had barricaded his door so Harumichi couldn’t get in.
“You don’t own me, Father! I’ll find something else to do with my life!”
But as the days went on, the resistance only slowed.
And even as Toya tried to fit in with Tsukasa’s troupe, which is much better in Harumichi’s eyes than being a street musician, he kept mumbling about something being off.
And eventually, Toya walks in with a look in his eyes.
“I give up.” He sighs. “You win. You’re right. I was born to be an instrument. There’s nothing I can do about that.”
“What happened to being a part of Tsukasa’s troupe?” Harumichi responds, and Toya sighs.
“Tsukasa-senpai doesn’t need me. He never has. His troupe is so perfectly structured and set up, there’s no room for me. There’s no place for me anywhere but at the piano.”
And true to his word, Toya does begin daily practice again. He does his work, plays the piano, goes to school, and nothing else.
Tsukasa keeps trying to drag him to his troupe, but it doesn’t work. Toya slowly stops accepting his calls, and that’s what starts to make Harumichi’s chest tighten.
He… doesn’t want to speak to Tsukasa.
And finally, he notices the light in Toya’s eyes has vanished.
It’ll be back, he tells himself. It’ll be back and Toya will be himself again. The music will save him.
But Toya’s never quite himself again.
And for the first time since Harumichi was a child too scared to be himself, he doesn’t know what to do.
⇆ any of your older ranger OCs in Desire! (Or how they react to Dru in general lol)
Just to be clear, I have an entire AU idea where Ash stayed in Sky’s life and beat Dru with a steel chair. I think about this all the time.
Sky has intentionally not told any of them about him— mostly because Addi will track him down and kill him while making it look like an accident.
So hypothetically if they were swapped into Desire…
Sage would be more focused on Sky himself— dragging him out of there and making sure he doesn’t die
Jamie’s coming up with a huge plan and probably synthesizing the antidote in the back of Bridge’s trailer
Addi is surprisingly calm. It is because she has already figured out how to kill Dru while making it look like an accident on the drive there.
Ash is obviously pissed and wants to beat Dru to death with a steel chair, but as the closest thing to a parental figure Sky has at the moment she’s trying her fucking best to make sure he’s okay and drag him away to Kat and get him fixed up.
Bonus: If Schuyler was there… oh, boy. As the child of an abusive relationship, he’s gotta sit there and go like “Ah, fuck, my son is making the same mistakes my mom and Lina did.” Like he’s going to feel guilty that he didn’t teach Sky the warning signs well enough and then cry into a pillow for two hours and then apologize non-stop for failing Sky (Sky: Dad, what???)

The first part of Singing Out A Melody Too Lovely To Withstand was actually written around a year ago, around the time I wrote Seasons May Turn, But Things Still Stay The Same. I fleshed it out afterwards because I thought it would be fun and I just really love writing Narin.
