Friday Afternoon Assembly

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

Josh stood up on the stage, looking distinctly uncomfortable.

It wasn't like someone had given him a microphone and an audience in a while. Not since the whole "secret plan to fight inflation" thing, anyway.

"Welcome to the first game show at Fandom High," he read from his cue card. "Where the questions are just as cracked out as the school." He raised an eyebrow. "Huh. Today we will be vying teachers against students for bragging rights and pie from Jeff, God of Biscuits. The game will be divided into three sections--much like the US government--though the students will be overrepresented because they know that the teachers at this school will kick their butts otherwise with their superior wit and guile."

Josh grinned. "Let the games begin!"

Josh smiled and flipped the card over. "Correct! It's because 'We r in ur assembly stealin ur questionz'." Josh blinked. "I have no idea what that means."

He flipped to the next card. "Next question! What came first: the chicken or the egg?"

"Egg," Yomiko said decisively. "Some bird didn't just suddenly mutate into a chicken. It had to hatch from an egg already evolved into a chicken." She glanced at the Doctor and said, "...right?"

"Egg," the Doctor nodded. "As eggs existed long before chickens. More things come from eggs than chickens. Dinosaurs, just to name the obvious. Waaaay older than chickens."

Josh smiled and flipped the card over, then frowned. "The squirrels strike again. Apparently the correct response is 'chickenz r 2 close 2 stupid duckz 'n should be killinated.' Huh."

He quickly put that card away. "Final question in our trivia round. Which is more likely to happen: the park being all covered in cheese for no apparent reason, Darth Vader getting bit by a gremlin and wearing a red feather boa, or that damn stupid hotel duck learning not to mess with the clearly superior species of squirrels?" He blinked. "Guess who wrote that question."

The Doctor turned to Yomiko. "Cheese. Unless the question is, in fact, quess who wrote that question, in which case the answer is 'the squirrels'."

Yomiko was frowning. "Does that mean we got the last one right or wrong?"

She shook her head to clear it, then said, "While I agree the cheese thing is very likely--at least, more than Professor Vader getting bitten through all that body armor he likes to wear--I suspect it's the thing about the squirrels and the duck. I sense a theme."

"Oh, right. Sticking to theme is important. The squirrels and the duck answer is very likely. I agree," the Doctor said.

"The next section will likely be some sort of battle royale between people dressed as the squirrels and the duck," she added. Yomiko didn't watch much TV, but for some reason this whole fiasco reminded her of the game shows on TV back home.

The Doctor blinked. "I... suppose that's possible as well."

Re: Round One! The Doctor & Ms. Readman

[agentthepaper]

"Well, it would fit the theme..."

"I'll just abstain from encouraging any sort of mammal versus fowl violence."

Re: Round One! The Doctor & Ms. Readman

[agentthepaper]

"Fair enough." Yomiko turned to Josh and asked, "Is the answer squirrels?"

"It is!" Josh said, "They have added 'vengeance will be ours, oh yes,' to the back of my cue card. They're scary. That's it for this section of our game. Thank you both for participating."
