Science! (Thursday, 7th Period)

Ms Frizzle waited for her class and Ellie's astronomy class on the front steps of the school. The bus waited patiently behind her, looking suspiciously like a very normal school bus. Ms Frizzle, as usual, looked nothing like a normal science teacher. Moons and planets adorned today's dress, with dangling Saturns for earrings. Her hairstyle was different today, though. Curling buns on either side of her head. When everyone had arrived, she bounced in place before throwing out her arms.

"Good afternoon, everyone! Class, I'd like you to welcome Ms Arroway's astronomy class, who will be joining us for today's field trip! Last class we were talking about the water cycle on the planet Earth. I think it's time we expanded our focus a bit." A worrying smile that should be getting familiar to her students spread across her face and her eyes lit up. "Everyone to the bus!"

[[Don't ask about the kind of day I've had. Just . . . don't ask. OCD coming up. Play away!]]

"Better than a test then?" Luna grinned.

"Way better." Blair grinned back. "You ever been in space before?"

"I've been in many spaces before, but never this outside of dreams." She touched the window and smiled.

"It does seem sort of like a dream, doesn't it. All dark and big and full of promise." Blair nodded, staring out the window. "Plus we don't fall which is better than flying on Earth."

"Giant, glittering, and beautiful. A good sort of promise." Luna agreed. Then pointing again to a moon circling the colossal red planet they were passing, she cried, "Europa! Ice covered, cool and cold."

"You make it sound like a dessert. Icy planets." Blair smiled. "And now I'm hungry."
