Four girls from everywhere.
A school in the middle of somewhere.
A city at the edge of anywhere.
A school story like you'll find nowhere else.

The Extras is a modern take on a classic boarding school story, a slice-of-life comedy / fantasy about the everyday adventures of growing up. Located in the City, the School of Saints Java and Hellbender is as much a character in the story as the girls from almost everywhere who live and learn there, and just as full of secrets.

Shelby always carries a pocket tool with her. You never know when you'll have to unscrew something.

Now Shelby knows what to ask Santa for next year!

It looks like a roof-door that Shelby is removing.

What hijinx is she up to now?

Hopefully she's not about to do something dangerous as a result of anger/depression.

Nah, this is Shelby!

The worst issue she ever has, is not always having the right tool for a personal project!

@Kevin_Redcrow: Well, Shelby might be cheerful generally, but it's not all sunshine and rivet guns...

I need to get a good multitool some time. I've got one for my bike, but it lacks scissors and a bottle opener.

I've been surprised by the options and sizes available (as well as price points and build quality.) In the old days we'd just carry a Swiss army knife, which is another option.

Oh, I remember being surprised by the options sizes price points and build quality of Swiss army knives back in the 80s! XD Not that they were all Swiss. I sort-of wanted a really big one when I was a kid, but I was happy with the small-ish, medium-good quality one I had.

Hey, that's pretty handy! I keep tools out in my garage and in my basement - because you never know!

Shelby has a pocket screwdriver with reversible ends, and probably a multi-tool somewhere on her person. All of the uniform components of Saints Java and Hellbender- trousers, skirts, shirts, sweaters, etc. - all have pockets.
