fandomhigh | How to Annoy Your Teachers (And Not Get Turned Into Animals) [Week 4, Period 2]

When the students wander up to the main campfire today, they'll notice two very large boxes and several bunches of pink and blue balloons. For now, John ignores those.

"Welcome back," he said, "and I hope you're all enjoying being back in the dorms. Nice to have walls and doors again, isn't it?"

"Today's class is going to be pretty straightforward," he said, crossing his arms over his chest. "Today, we're going to start rumors."

John loved rumors. Especially if they were about someone else. "Pair up or, if you'd like, talk to me, and tell me a rumor about a teacher. Any teacher. If it's a good enough rumor, I'll mention it next Monday on the radio. Rumors are good for annoying people for a few reasons. One, unless someone rats you out, it's hard to pinpoint blame. If I started a rumor about Deadpool being married, which isn't a rumor by the way, and it got around to ten or fifteen of you, it would still be hard for Deadpool to figure out who started the rumor. Two, rumors can be as extravagant as you'd like. You could tell someone that Ares was really a furry robotic chipmunk. Here, people would believe you! And there are other reasons but the first two are the important ones."

Pausing, he wondered if Ares was, in fact, a robotic chipmunk. "So, start a rumor. About me or about another teacher and spread it around the classroom. This week's homework is a special one though. See those boxes and those ballons?" He pointed at the aforementioned boxes and balloons. "For homework this week, I'd like you to dig through those boxes and pick one out of the ugliest pieces of ~~moddable~~ maternity clothes you can find. And then take a bunch of balloons. You can then choose either Principal Zoe or Aly to go find and give the clothing and balloons to. Wish them well in their pregnancies and tell them John sent you!"

"And don't forget to turn in your homework if you took on a different persona last week," John reminded them.

[OOC: Homework can be handwavily done, as always. Today's homework assignment has been approved by both Zoe and Aly. Thank you kindly to the both of them. As always, tell the teachers John sent you and you won't get in trouble. Teachers? John is around here to be threatened, yelled at or chased in the appropriate thread. Have fun!]

Did you take on a different persona? Show John here!

Karal might actually have been shuffling his feet. "I pretended to be a highborn at Vala (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1393606.html?thread=84412870#t84412870)."

"How'd that go?" John asked.

"It went on for awhile," he said slowly. "I--" Karal sighed. "She pressed me for physical proof, which I did not possess, and I admitted what I was doing. But I think I did annoy her! At least a small amount."

"Annoying her even the slightest bit is a win," John said. "Good choice for annoyance too."

Karal perked up a bit. "Truly?" he asked with a smile. "I picked the most irritating person I could remember and acted as they used to, and I certainly annoyed myself! Although," he glanced down at the desk, "I did tell her which teacher set the assignment."

"That's okay," John assured him. "We kinda know each other, her and me, and she's not so scary."

Animal waves his arms around like a lunatic.

"ARTS AND CRAFTS! ARTS AND CRAFTS!" (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1396161.html?thread=84594881#t84594881)

Then as if to describe what he did he began yelling "MEE! MEE! MEE! MEE! MEE!".

John's already grinning broadly. "In Arts and Crafts? Excellent job, Animal!"

Evie explained her ~~*handwavey*~~ homework, annoying one of her teachers.

Edward turned in a paper on how he'd kept up a persona for two whole classes. In reality, he'd forgotten the assignment, but every word in the paper was true. Henry'd gone to class, after all. Leaving names out of it, Edward managed to keep the secret safe, while still exploiting it for a grade.

"I pretended to be Deadpool at Deadpool (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1393186.html?thread=84462626#t84462626)," Zuko said ~~because I was a dork and mixed up homeworks~~.

"You Deadpool'ed Deadpool?" John grinned. "Nice job, Zuko."

[*iz ded of link*]

Zuko? Actually kind of proud of it. He nodded at John. "It was interesting."

Rikku stood up proudly. "Okay, so, I totally pretended to be Gabriella in Aly's class, but she didn't seem to be annoyed? I think she thought I was just crazy for a day or whatever. Oh! And I made sure there weren't any real explosives for the day first, because I'm totally not gonna goof off around that and all. It was just defusing paint bombs so I figured it was okay."

And then, there were the evil giggles. "And Hades said on the radio that no one ever left him a care package, and I thought that was sad, so, you know. I made him one. I know care packages weren't in the assignment, but I consider annoying Hades to be kind of a sacred quest."

"I think Aly's hard to annoy," John said, "because almost everyone likes her. Plus, she's like got a shield up or something. Bombs can annoy her though but don't throw them because she's kinda scary."

And then he listened to the second part and said, "Did you ever know that you're my hero?"

Yes, he went there.

"I kinda feel bad now, for lying to her? But I think she'll be okay with it. Besides, I had to try to annoy her for Deadpool anyway. He's gonna get me ice cream."

And she giggled. "The care package had Malibu Stacy dolls and princess ponies and glitter. And I strive only to make you proud, sensei."

"Ice cream is always an excusable excuse for annoying someone," he said, nodding. "You have done so, grasshopper. I doubt Hades ever forgets your name."

Rikku grinned. "I kinda hope he mutters it in his sleep, and his hair changes colors."

Door's hands wave wildly as she explains .... how she got to her other class and realized it was nigh unto impossible to annoy GOB, at least with the alternate persona trick.

Sokka, still dressed in his ninjawear (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1398051.html?thread=84885027#t84885027) from the previous period, bowed ever so slightly. "No," he answered curtly. "I did not. No service without payment."
