Daisy seemed a bit preoccupied when the students entered the classroom that day. "As you can all see on the schedule, next week we'll be starting into some of the physical techniques of acting, and this week your choices for your final scene projects are due. We were going to do some improv in class today, but I figured I'd give all of you the choice. You can either do the improv assignment, which is to present a scene in which only your feet, back, or hands are visible to the audience, or you can get together into your groups and talk about your final projects. If you don't have a group or a project yet, might I suggest the latter?

"As soon as you let me know your group and project ~~handwaving is fine as always~~, you're free to leave. Next week, stage combat! So wear something you can really move around in."

[ooc: sorry for the uninspired class this week. But I wanted to give some IC room for people to actually get together into groups and such if you want. As always, handwaving of the assignment is fine, just PLEASE let me know if that's what you're doing. OCD is ~~going~~ up.]

Angela smiled at Jake's enthusiasm. "Do you know what you want to do? And you look really different with that haircut."

Jake gave her a wry look. "That's what Rory said too. No, I have no idea, but maybe we could, like, pick a scene from a tv-show? Like when Bitterwoman fights Incredible Man who's gone insane from white dust, and... Okay, that one might be a bit complicated, but you get what I mean."

Angela held up the sling on her left arm. "Not a fight scene today, definitely. Unless you want a really gimpy Bitterwoman."

She tapped the fingers of her free hand on her chin. "Maybe something from Amigos? Sitcoms aren't so physical."

Jake blinked at her. "I was thinking of the final project, actually, but maybe you already have a partner there?" He frowned for a moment. "Sitcoms are hard though, especially without a camera and a laugh track, because you got to get the timing right and stuff."

"I don't have a partner for the final scene," Angela said, embarassed. "Sorry, I lost track of what we were taking about If it's not for a couple weeks, the Bitterwoman scene sounds fun. Maybe twist it, do .... I don't know, Butterwoman in space?"

Jake snickered. "Butterwoman in space? I like that. I could be... Um. What's he called? The evil green space overlord dude?" He turned his forehead greenish with bumps on in an attempt to demonstrate.

"Um. Freaky," Angela said, not meanly. "I think his name's X'Zvion or X'Qvion or something. And Butterwoman can be trying to keep him from taking over her home planet of Dairylandia."

"Brilliant!" Jake said and pulled out his sketchbook to take notes. His forehead smoothed back down, but remained green. "I have no idea how to spell his name, so I'm just writing X. And he has that fierce horde of spambots, right? But Butterwoman can defeat them with her mighty... mighty... Uh..."

"Yeah, I can't spell it either,. X works."

"Dairy products?" Angela suggested, trying not to giggle. "Like, she throws packets of butter and those little cups of creamer at the spambots, and they're radioactive so they work as weapons."

"Radioactive dairy products. Sounds very unhealthy." Jake snickered. "I like it! We can probably get some from the lunch room, too, so it'd be, like, authentic. Sort of."

"And another reason I don't eat there," Angela said. "Sounds like a really good scene."
