Journalism Class - Friday September 23

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Spider is sprawled atop his desk, cat draped over his feet, staring up at a holo feed that is playing on the celing. He has a large mug of something that is steaming gently beside him and a pack of cigarettes with a lighter atop it by his elbow. The rest of the newsfeeds are also on, but muted.

The one above him seems to be going on at some length about prisoner riots.

On a large board propped up in front of the class is a sign that reads:

Attention students:

Today is gossip day. I want you to spend the class period discussing the strangest and most vicious rumors you've heard regarding the school, your schoolmates, the townies and your professors. Go nuts. At the end of class, I will go back and review and whoever came up with the best (ie most fascinating, funny or repeatable) rumor will win a prize.

Also? Homework assignments for next week, coming to a notice board near you.

Buffy hears this and slides into the seat next to Xander. "So, I'm guessing you had a Faith where you came from, then? Is she evil?"

She shrugs. "So far the entertaining gossip I've heard is only that Angelus is trying to get romance advice from the Sociology professor."

Ivanova leans over, glad she knows who *someone* is talking about. "Romantic advice? From Dr. Grissom? Talk about the blind leading the blind . . . but last class Angelus did say he "had something" for the professor."

Xander snorts. "Somehow I don't think he's talking about a copy of How to Win Friends and Influence People."

"Dear lord that is a scary thought."

Xander nodded to Buffy. "Yeah, we had a Faith. And if she wasn't evil, she was sure enough grade-A psycho, and had some bad taste in sugar-daddies."
