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.

"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."

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

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.

Re: Miniatures

"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

"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.

Re: Miniatures

"He's not bringing the television over. That thing is way too huge," Jim said. "They'll just have to pretend to be comfortable on the futon."

"She could bring some of her pillows," Pam added. "She has lots."

Re: Miniatures

[fat-halpert.livejournal.com]

"Anything to make the whole experience even better," Jim said.

"And she could probably beat him at whatever they play," she added solemnly.

"Would she have a funny victory dance?" Jim asked.

Re: Miniatures

[keds-champion.livejournal.com]

"Possibly," Pam said cryptically.

Re: Miniatures

[fat-halpert.livejournal.com]

"That would be fun to see sometime," Jim said.

"If such a dance exists, it may someday be seen," Pam replied in a terribly mystical voice.
