fandomhigh | Film and Lit, 1/11

Daisy hadn't done much to turn what had been the basic acting classroom into the film and lit classroom. There was still an oversized arm chair in the corner that served as her "desk", and there was still a fairly large, clear area in front of the semi circle of student desks. She had, however, had someone set up a projector and movie screen in the front.

"Right! Welcome to your first day of Film and Literature. I'm Daisy. Daisy Adair. Your teacher. I know, I know, I look too young to be a teacher, but it's true. I don't have any syllabus or anything for you, because I wanted to see what topics you would prefer to cover in this class. Anything that has both a print and film version (and, no, screenplays don't count) is fair game, so we're talking about movies made from books and short stories, books made from movies and TV shows, the anime/manga dichotomy, whatever catches your attention. Seeing as it's our first day, I thought we'd start out easy. Stand up, tell us your name, what you'd really like to study and discuss in class, and . . . oh, let's go for your favorite beverage. Go!"

When that had ended, Daisy stood back up from her arm chair. "Okay! Good job, people. You all have horrible taste. For the rest of class, I want you to pick a story, any story, and write a quick summary of how you would turn that story into a movie. For homework, pick one scene from that story and describe the movie scene in detail. Think costumes, camera angles, lighting, actors and actresses, the works. Have fun!"

[ooc: please meta things. Handwaviness is always acceptable.]

Nova shook his had to this question too.

"I don't drink," he said. "I don't need to."

Nova was still getting used to being in company with large groups of human. He considered at least trying some drinks sometime soon and finding out what he liked.

"I . . . see. Then what do you do, Nova?"

"..do..?" he asked. He wasn't quite sure what she meant by that.

"Exist..." he tried to answer, though it almost sounded like a question.

"Okay, let's try this again. I am an actress and a teacher, and when I'm not doing those things, I like to read and go dancing. What do you do, Nova?"

"I'm a mod-soul. I help my friends detect Bounto," he hope this would explain everything.

"Bounto devour souls," he added just in case she asked. He looked at her apologetically for his lack of a real life.

And now, Daisy was fascinated. ". . . Could you see me after class, Nova?"

[ooc: Daisy being a reaper, all this talk of mod-souls and soul-eating things has her ears perked waaaaaay up. If it's cool with you, she'd love to try pulling Nova's soul to see what happens.]

Nova gave here a hesitant nod, he hoped he hadn't upset her in anyway.

[ooc: Sure! as long as she can put it back. It might be distressing if Nova's body was left lying somewhere. I'll have to SP whatever it is because of school stuff though]

Daisy smiled. "Excellent. Come by my office, then."

[ooc: I'm at work, so SP is fine. And of course she can put it back.]
