Adventuring Survival Tactics, April 6. Period 4

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

The Doctor's paint-splattered classroom had no chairs. No bean bags. No swatches of carpet. The desk was gone.

Was the room entirely empty, then? Of course not. There were matresses. Lining the floors. The walls. Everything. The room was entirely padded with matresses. (and how did they get there? He has a time and space machine that can travel anywhere and is bigger on the inside and the out. He does these sort of things). So once everyone sat down, he began his lecture.

"First of all, I would like to make a statement that public nudity is not acceptable where the law prohibits such acts," the Doctor said. "Second, I'd like to talk a bit about redemption. No, I'm not going to tell you about any sort of religious savior, don't worry. I may have padded the walls but that does not mean I've gone mad. What I am saying, is that sometimes, some of the worst people in the universe can become some of the greatest. It all just depends on what they're doing. Ex-nazis helped put a man on the moon, the Renaissance bred warfare death and wonderful art, but really, that's not what I'm getting at, either."

The Doctor paused for a moment.

"There is such a thing as irreedemable evil. But in the long run, it's very hard to reach that. I've committed terrible acts in my life, but also acts of great good. The same goes for the Master, if you remember him from my previous classes. Now admittedly, a lot of the great acts I've seen from people who have done great wrongs are the type that involve self-sacrifice to save people from the bad things they'd done. But that's not always the case. Lives can always be rededicate to good. Never be too quick to judge a fellow who seems to have had a change of heart. Suspicion is all well and good, but don't let yourself be too tainted by their past misdeeds. Unless they are Charles Manson, because that fellow is just a right nutter."

The Doctor smiled and went a bit more in depth into the subject in a totally modable way.

"As for the rest of the class... have fun with the padded room. I'll be sitting here, eating an apple."

And he sat down, and proceeded to start eating an apple.

During the Lecture

Pass notes, pass gas, chat, whatever.

Pippi sits back and listens.

Jack was sitting in the corner closest to the door, just in case. Chances are he wouldn't even be here, except that it was the Doctor's class, and Isabel was with him.

Isabel sat down so that she was between bwitch!Lana and Jack. It took everything in her not to glare at her, but she didn't want to start any sort of confrotation that would let her know that Isabel knew the truth.

"Don't let me fall asleep, okay?" he asked, even though he figured it was pretty unlikely. "These mattresses are pretty comfy."

"Zuko's irredeemable..." Sokka muttered to himself.

Luke? Taking an excessive amount of notes today.

Padded Room Hijinks

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

It's entirely covered, floor to ceiling, in mattresses. Got to be some fun, eh?

Re: Padded Room Hijinks

[absolutesnark]

Summer wasn't considering taking a nap on one of the mattresses. Really.

Re: Padded Room Hijinks

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Pippi is not only thinking about taking a nap, but she appears to be napping.

Z pushed against one of the wall-mattresses, testing it for bounciness. Then she took some steps back, got a running start, and bounced off the wall, her landing softened by the mattresses on the floor. "Whee!"

You might think that, Stark being Stark, he might have spent time in padded rooms before. But no, this was new. So after watching Z go flying off a wall, he decided that he really needed to try that at least once.

Re: Padded Room Hijinks

BOUNCE! BOUNCE! BOUNCE!

Sokka bounced all over the room, off of walls, etc., etc. Just having fun. He did his best to avoid the sleeping students, though.

Talk to the Doc

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

Hopefully not about 'what happened to your clothes last night'.

Re: Talk to the Doc

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia? Well, she's playing devil's advocate, of course. "Are you saying that people should be ashamed of their bodies? It's only skin, after all. . . ."

She has no idea that the Doctor has joined the public nudity crowd.

Re: Talk to the Doc

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

"No, I'm saying that running about late at night without any bit of kit is a bad, bad plan, especially in this weather," the Doctor said.

After Class

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

The Doctor cleared a space of mattresses, and remotely had his TARDIS materialize in that space, so he could start un-padding the room.

"All right," Rose said striding in, "I think I've been patient long enough, what's with the nudity? New thing you came up with? Shock people to death with your flesh? To think I thought your tenth was the hyper one."

Re: After Class

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

"I... lost my clothes," the Doctor said, stuffing a mattress through the TARDIS doors.

OOC

[nine-and-ears.livejournal.com]

It is waaaaay too cold out for April.

Running off to a hair appointment. Might be back later. WHEE!
