"Demonstrated habit"...

... this one belongs in the headcanon thread, methinks.
Nope, Misha says so straight out. This is the scene where Hisao is helping Misha and Shizune organize the post-festival receipts. Hisao is complaining about how much work it is. Misha agrees, and says they usually just make something up.
I can't remember the scene off the top of my head, mind quotting it directly?
The report itself, I can clarify.
before the festival, it is common practice for all who's willing to participate (classes, clubs, etc) to forward their proposal to the SC, telling them whether or not they require extra funds borrowed from the school or use their own (this is the argument she had with Lilly early on). The post-festival receipt is often a report by the leaders of each stand which are to be submitted to the SC for evaluation (especially those who borrowed money from the school)--the task of confirming all of this falls to the accountant/treasurer. This is to be forwarded--with the SC president's inkan stamped on it--to the board of directors.
Which Shizune's SC severely lacks.
As I said, a two-man student council is impossible to be ran effectively and efficiently--a three-man, that's pushing it.
Then again, that line was said by Misha--and we know that most of Misha's line and translations needs to be taken with a grain of salt since--the majority of the time--Shizune is the one who handles the entire affairs as Misha pops in once in a while, as evident later in ACTIII-IV. 'Make something up'...? Yeeaah more like tossing it to Shizune for her to handle. Shizune doesn't look like the type that would go beyond breaking rules. Bending them, that I can see--breaking? Far from it.
Second, I like prof. All's analogy of the SC. It's not overdramatization, as that is what it is--a 'mock' student government that functions as a bridge between the teacher and the students. They're as real as it gets, and Shizune's sentiment against Lilly is understandable (Lilly did the same thing again at the ending of her route. She learnt nothing from it).
