Novice's Guide to Villains and Villainy - Week 4, Period 3 (Danger Shop)

When students walked into the Danger Shop today, they found themselves surrounded by a very cartoonish, Seussian landscape. Thursday was there, unchanged by the surroundings, waiting patiently for them all to gather.

"Good morning. Change of plan. I don't think we need to spend any more time on theory. You'll learn much more from testing different reactions up against opponents in a more practical setting. Villains are not always dangerous. Villains are not always out for world domination. There comes a time in the career of every hero, crime fighter, detective and normal person who gets caught up in trouble on a regular basis when they meet the Major Annoyance."

Right on cue, this little fellow rode in on his...creature.




"As anyone who was raised on Earth in the 20th century would know, this," Thursday announced, "Is Sam I Am. He will badger you. He will hinder your efforts to exist without going mad. Use whatever you have on you, work alone or in groups, and thwart him. Be warned, he's trickier than he looks." Thursday stepped aside and Sam I Am took over.

"I am Sam! Sam I Am! Would you like green eggs and ham?"

"No," Hermione says simply.

"Would you like them in a room? Would you like them on a broom?"

"No," she says again, and this time there's a glare to go with it.

She will keep saying no until he runs out of rhyming words, dammit.

This one was definitely no fun. He pulled out the platter of green eggs and ham, pulled off the lid, tossed it aside and then threw an egg at Hermione. At least she wasn't wearing her Hot Topic shirt. That would've been expensive to replace.

She's not good at dodging, so it hits her, getting all over her shirt. "How dare you!" she says, glaring.

"You are asking how I dare? But you were just standing there!"

"I said no, did you not hear me?" she says, still glaring.

"Hear you? Why yes, I did my dear, but come on surely you don't fear?" He waved the other egg at her.

"Don't you dare," she says, internally flailing a little.

"Come on, simply try a bit, then I'll stop being such a git."

"I already ate," she tells him.

"If you do not give it a shot, a moment's peace you haven't got."

"What if I were vegan?" she asks.

Re: Defeat Sam I Am

[identity profile] no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com 2007-02-03 04:55 am (UTC)(link)
"A vegan? Oh no, not again. If it were that I'd fail, and then, I'd be miserable you see, you'd understand if you were me."

"Then I'm very sorry," Hermione lies. And then she lies more, "I can't have meat or eggs."

Re: Defeat Sam I Am

[personal profile] smartestone 2007-02-03 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm very strict in my veganism," she says matter-of-factly.

"Because I can't rhyme with oranges."

[personal profile] smartestone 2007-02-03 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
"Of course, that hasn't stopped you from talking."

Re: Defeat Sam I Am

[identity profile] no-toast-thanks.livejournal.com 2007-02-03 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
"Will you give the eggs a shot if I stop talking a lot?"

Re: Defeat Sam I Am

[personal profile] smartestone 2007-02-03 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
"No," she says again, firmly. "Especially not since I am wearing egg."

"Hmm, well I don't know about you, but I can nag and nag until I'm blue."

It would be wrong to place a silencing charm on him. It would be wrong to place a silencing charm on him. It would be wrong...

"I think you'll have to turn blue."

"That's not something I can do, so I'll talk and talk and talk woo-hoo!"

It was entirely possible that Hermione was going to have to find some way to silence him.

Re: Defeat Sam I Am

[personal profile] smartestone 2007-02-03 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, yeah, no.

She takes out her wand, and trying not to look like she's showing off for anyone, says, "Silencio."
