Tuesday, June 5th - Period 3 - Advanced Beginner's Guide to watching the Jerries be crazy

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

This week, the Activities Area was set up differently. There were easels set in a circle around the room. In the center was a mattress with a few pillows on it.

"Welcome!" cried one Jerry.

"Welcome, tax accountants and Frisbee Olympic stars!"

"We have no bowling shoes for you this week!"

"No! Because this week, we feel it is time that we get serious about our art."

Both Jerries nodded solemnly. "But only if you are mature enough to handle it, Jerry! There will be no childish giggling in here! Or we shall send you right out!"

"There will be no rotary chickens here! For this week, we are sketching ..."

"The NUDE!"

"Behold!" Both Jerries wave their hands to the mattress triumphantly. The empty mattress.

"And now begin!"

"Jerry, wait!" One Jerry gasped. "Our model has been stolen!"

"The donkeys stole our model!?"

"Our model has drowned the donkeys!?"

"Our model is still in the closet!"

"Ah, yes." Jerry ran over to a closet and appeared to be involved in a deep conversation with its inhabitant. "She wants a raise, Jerry."

"Fine, fine," said the other Jerry dismissively. "She's paid until Thursday anyway, tell her we shall pay an extra can of sardines and she can borrow the hairdryer."

"Jerry," said one Jerry sternly. "We have no hairdryer."

"Jerry!" The other Jerry waved frantically. "She doesn't need to know that!"

"Ahhhhh. Very smart, Jerry!"

"Thank you!" And the Jerry by the mattress bowed while the other Jerry dragged their model out of the closet. (LINK IS NWS.)

Jerry set the model - who looked suspiciously like a very cheaply made blow-up doll - on the mattress.

"Now begin! Or we shall release the hounds!"

"Or the models!"

"Or the sardines!"

"Not the sardines, Jerry!"

"Yes! The sardines!"

"It is a madhouse!"

(Wait for the OCD, or the Jerries will release the sardines. The OCD is up, but I can't make any promises about the sardines...)

SIGN IN!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

Do it now, Jerry! Sign in and sing a song about ham!

Re: SIGN IN!

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine, who shall sing a wonderful ditty about ham which may or may not include verses glorifying gravy, mustard, and scalloped potatoes as well.

Talk amongst yourselves!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

Were you all excited about maybe getting to see a real naked lady?

You poor, deluded thing.

Re: Talk amongst yourselves!

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Of course Sokka didn't think they'd get to see a real naked lady. He's smarter than that.

The sad sighing is, of course, entirely coincidental.

Pick an easel!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

On each easel is a collection of instruments, including a handful of neon magic markers, several shades of shoe polish, and a few vials of finger paint. Also a few buttons, some clarinet reeds, and several paperclips. Possibly one of you has a bird whistle. That one is this week's lucky winner! (Null and void. But feel free to win anyway. Heck, maybe everyone wins! YOU GOTTA PLAY TO WIN, YOU KNOW, JERRY.)

Re: Pick an easel!

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine shimmied up to the nearest easel and eyed its contents.
He wasn't entirely certain what to do with the magic markers, but so long as they weren't black, he supposed they would do well enough.

Lucas was staring and possibly blushing a lot. He was trying to come up with something snarky to say, but the words just weren't flowing. He was a little distressed.

Re: Pick an easel!

Cedric walked up to an easel, picked up a green neon magic marker and stared at the Jerries for awhile.

And then he started drawing.

And then he stared some more.

And then more drawing.

Re: Pick an easel!

Katara made sure she had an easel with several blue markers. And blue shoe polish. And blue finger paint.

It was possible she stole some of the blue from other easels.

Donnie had no idea how to use a bird whistle to make a drawing, but it was kind of interesting anyway. He stole a nub of a pencil from another easel so he could actually draw, in the meantime.

Re: Pick an easel!

Warren sniffed suspiciously at the various art supplies on the easel. And watched the model just as suspiciously.

Then he started drawing a turnip. Just, you know, 'cause he could.

Molly walked up to an easel and started to draw a picture of Old Lace (http://www.marvel.com/universe3zx/images/0/01/Arseniclace.jpg)* using the magic markers. She was counting on the fact that the Jerries wouldn't really realize that she was drawing something completely different.

*[[Old Lace being the dinosaur in that picture, not the girl.]]

Re: Pick an easel!

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka picked a random easel, and hooray! He won a bird whistle!

He started blowing on the whistle while taking inventory of the other... "art supplies". He shrugged, and dipped the tip of a neon yellow magic marker into blue fingerpaint, for that trippy two-tone effect.

Luna selected an easel, surveyed the supplies and set up things to her liking.

Sketch the nuuuuuuuuuuude!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

Do not objectify her, Jerry! Sketch her in her natural alabaster beauty! Capture her self as more than just a collection of shapes! Make sure you get the plug where the air-pump goes!

Re: Sketch the nuuuuuuuuuuude!

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine added a mask as he drew her face. Granted, it looked rather like a five-year-old had drawn it, but he was going to add one, anyhow. Even blow-up dolls without masks were hideous.

Re: Sketch the nuuuuuuuuuuude!

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

Cedric couldn't really draw so his nude figure was a stick figure with long, flowing hair and some bumps in the right places...he hoped.

Re: Sketch the nuuuuuuuuuuude!

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara was staring too much at the blow-up doll to really do much in the sketching department. Possibly because she was hurting her brain trying to figure out why someone would have one.

Re: Sketch the nuuuuuuuuuuude!

[turtle-techie.livejournal.com]

Donnie sketched carefully, trying not to think about the doll too hard. It wasn't a terrible drawing, but it wasn't very pretty, either.

Halfway Through Class: Disaster Strikes

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

Do you hear that hissing noise? Because the Jerries don't.

And Madeleine - her name is Madeleine, Jerry! didn't you bother to ask her her name!? - begins wilting. Rapidly.

Oh, yes, your model has sprung a leak. A big 'un. Have fun telling the Jerries.

Re: Halfway Through Class: Disaster Strikes

[dark_slippy_thing]

No, Valentine wasn't going to point it out.

If the model was two-dimensional, his stick figure would be perfectly accurate.

Halfway Through Class: A Solution, Jerry!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

"We cannot continue without a model, Jerry!"

Both Jerries are running around in a circle, flailing madly.

"We are ruined!"

"They will never hire us as scuba instructors again!"

"Unless ... Jerry, I must!"

"No, Jerry! I forbid it! No!"

The darker-haired Jerry peels off his housecoat and throws Madeleine out of the way in order to stretch out on the mattress, one hand over his eyes. "Don't look! Don't objectify me! Sketch with your eyes closed!"

The blonde Jerry is running from easel to easel, dancing to stand between each student and the new model. "Don't look! That is my sister, Jerry! How dare you!"

Don't worry, you don't need to chug bleach. Jerry still totally has those flannel pajamas on. Not that that's a pretty sight, but let's be grateful for small favors.

So, sketch the not-so-nude. If you don't mind being threatened by an angry Jerry.

Re: Halfway Through Class: A Solution, Jerry!

[stuckeyboy]

"Oh dear god. . . . oh good." Still, Warren decided it might be best if he turned his easel to face the opposite direction while he finished his turnip painting.

Release the Sardines!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

In this thread, Jerry has given up entirely on getting you to not sketch his sister, and is instead releasing the sardines.

By which I mean, if you ping into this thread, the blonde Jerry will throw sardines on your head.

If you don't want sardines on your head, don't ping in here. If you ping in here, you will be sardine'd.

You have been warned.

Re: Release the Sardines!

[dark_slippy_thing]

Valentine was perhaps trying so hard not to laugh at the Jerry that was posing to notice the Jerry that was not.

What a shame.

Talk to the TA!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

Seriously, ask him what's wrong with the Jerries. Or see if he has any sardines.

Wait for His Archbishopness to ping in, please.

Re: Talk to the TA!

[ihatedenmark.livejournal.com]

Hamlet did in fact have sardines, but they were back in the unplugged minifridge in his dorm room.

And since they'd been sitting in there from before everyone was shooed out in to cabins, you're probably better off not asking for them.

(And he thought that the Jerries may have been insane, but were still delightful to talk to, so there was nothing really wrong with them.)


He was here if you needed to talk to him.

Talk to the Jerries!

[sizzler-sisters.livejournal.com]

After class, if you want to. Because you have a huge number of issues, apparently. What's wrong with you? Why are you even in this class!?
