Home Economics, Tuesday, period 1

There were boxes in the classroom. One with different kinds of wood, one with different kinds of fabric, and one with various things. There were also small saws, glue, scissors, paper and string spread out on the tables.

"Good morning students. Today we are going to be working on creating miniatures." Emma gestured towards the boxes. "You'll use the materials provided to make a bed, a closet, a couch and a table. If you still have time after that, you're welcome to make whatever else you want."

She sat down behind her desk and opened a copy of Ankh-Morpork Times she'd found lying around somewhere. It was a fascinating read.

ooc: wait for ocd is up.

Pam looked over from where she was carefully adding a lace ruffle to her teeny bed. "Would you want to live there? Really?"

"Not really, Pamela, but sometimes you just have to accept reality," Jim said.

He had no real reason for calling her Pamela.

"Pamela?" she repeated.

"That is your name," Jim pointed out.

She raised her eyebrows, and continued, "Okay, well, James, if we're accepting reality, why is there a giant TV?"

"Because that's where the money goes instead of a table, chairs, and bed," Jim said. "You have to prioritize, Pamela."

"But you have nowhere to enjoy the television, James," she said. "There's just the futon and those are progressively more uncomfortable over time."

"But, Pamela, there's a giant television to take my mind off the pain," Jim said.

"But what will you do all the other hours and hours, James?"

"Probably get an XBOX," Jim suggested.

"You have something against GameCube and Playstation?" she asked.

"Well, Playstation 3 is terrible, Pamela, and you should know that," Jim said. "I might go with the Wii, but the XBOX saves me having to get a DVD player."

"But the Wii is all interactive, James," she replied. "And funny to watch."

"It is cool, Pamela, but you never know when the Wiimote is going to go flying and cause a lawsuit," Jim said.

She stared. "What, James?"

"Some people can't strap those things to their hands correctly, then they let go when they're bowling," Jim explained. "I haven't witnessed this, unfortunately."

Pam looked slightly horrified. "Oh, God, that's something Roy would do."

Re: Miniatures

[identity profile] fat-halpert.livejournal.com 2007-04-04 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Jim didn't smirk at that. Really. "Roy sounds like a very smart guy."

"Hes a little clumsy sometimes," she said, shooting him a look.

Re: Miniatures

[identity profile] fat-halpert.livejournal.com 2007-04-04 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Jim was careful not to meet her look. "It happens to the best of us." Not that he imagined Roy was among the best of anyone, really.

"So, in this TV-exclusive place, will you let other people play games on your giant TV?" she asked after a slightly awkward pause.

"Assuming that I have enough money for two controllers after buying the TV and XBOX, yes," Jim said. "Hopefully I will. I mean, if anyone is interested in playing."

"I think the person in this little apartment would want to," she said, indicating her simple and pretty little miniature.

Re: Miniatures

[identity profile] fat-halpert.livejournal.com 2007-04-04 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
"The person in this little apartment would be completely willing to bring his XBOX over to that person's place if she would rather not deal with the futon," Jim suggested.

"She has nice furniture but no large television," Pam pointed out.
