Superheroing 101- Tuesday January 30- 2nd period

[captainliberty]

When the students come into the classroom, there's a little box of doughnuts in front of the class. "Go ahead and take one," Captain Liberty says. "It's cop food, but they're kind of like underflashy superheroes, too. Well, at least, the uncorrupted ones are. Anyway, hi. So just a little information about the fashion show next week. You don't have to show up to class on Tuesday next week, but you do have to show up with your costume to the auditiorium next Friday after classes. I will be checking attendance, and if you don't show up or participate, that's going to be a huge chunk out of your grade. I haven't done the math yet to find out how much, but it'll be a chunk. Also know that while you won't have to wear the costumes to class, you will be expected to wear them for a couple of practical exercises in the Danger Shop. Remember that when you're coming up with them. Any questions?"

After any questions had been asked, Captain Liberty continued, "So this week we're going to talk about how not to die like a punk. Punks don't die pretty. In fact, it's usually a quick and easy death and it's not really that heroic, so we'd like to avoid that. In fact, we'd like to avoid dying at all." She passes out a handout and says, "Read through that. Is there anything you'd like to add? Any questions? What would be the problems if you had to fight in an ordinary classroom and how would you deal with it?"


[Second verse same as the first. Job from hell till 6:30 PST, so I will pick up pings then. Feel more than free to get into discussions with each other on the subject.]
OCD is up. Play ball!

"Do we have to go out on a stage...?"

"Uh huh," she says. "If you're going to be really embarrassed about it, give your costume a mask. No one'll know who you are."

"Is it okay if we don't follow all of the rules that were mentioned in the costume class?" Peter asked. He was really into the trenchcoat idea.

Re: Ask questions about the fashion show

[captainliberty]

"Sure," she says. "Just never tell Edna. Everyone has their own style."

Will raised her hand. "Is there definitely going to be a private, lockable changeroom in the auditorium, or do we need to change elsewhere before the show?"

Yes, she was likely a little paranoid about this point.

Re: Ask questions about the fashion show

[captainliberty]

"If you want to change beforehand to avoid a line, go for it, but I'm handwavily arranging it somewhere. Feel free to use this room if you need," Captain Liberty offers.

JD is obviously daydreaming. Hopefully about his costume.

Discussion

Check out the handout! Tell us what you think!

Wow. Talk of cops and heroes dying?

This would be Cassie sitting in the corner.

Trying to avoid crying in the classroom.

[ooc: Can't pick up pings until evening PST, alas.]

"Don't die with your pants down!" Mr. Fantastically Awesome and Sometimes Spectacular offered up helpfully.

Reading the handout makes him feel a little more reassured. He could do most of these things... make sure there's no cats on the battlefield.... Though... he has to say that the transforming one is something he's used to...

"Um, a classroom will have a lot of students and desks and chairs?" Buffy suggested. "And the bad guy might not care if he or she hurts innocent students, but heroes should?"

"What about collateral damage?" Pippi said. "Should you try to avoid it at all costs, or just not worry about it?

Re: Discussion

"Okay... so I die. Been there, done that," Jamie said with a yawn. "Next question."

Re: Discussion

JD looks at the handout.

"You're serious? I thought superheros didn't die. I mean, what else is the point?"

Talk amongst yourselves

[captainliberty]

Babble, pass notes, work on your costumes when the teacher's not looking...!

Re: Talk amongst yourselves

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi is here, thinking about her costume and improvements that could be made to the design.

Talk to Captain Liberty

[captainliberty]

Because!

Luke was hovering by the door as the students left the room. "Um, hi," he said. "I've got a question for you."

OOC

I totally remembered to do this last night! Totally!
