Fandom Invasions Class #9 (Thursday period 3)

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

When the class entered the Danger Shop, they found themselves standing on the grounds around the school.

"Good morning," John said. "Last week was about zombies, this week we're going to be covering an invasion that was outside my own expertise. Which just goes to prove that no matter what you're used to dealing with, eventually in Fandom you're going to run into something completely outside your experience.

"For me, that was when we were invaded by dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures. I never dealt with them before, but I took what I did know and applied it to that situation, with the result being that I have the makings of a saber tooth catskin rug if I wanted one." John grinned.

"So today's about using what you've learned in facing the other threats we've studied in this class, as well as any personal experience you have to deal with Fandom's version of a blast from the past."

"Huh," Peter said. "Mind if I borrow it sometime?"

Let the record show a rare moment of Peter actually looking to study something without being forced to by a teacher.

Claire understands the feeling. She never cared at all about biology until this.

"Not at all. I could drop in around your room?"

Re: Talk to the TA

"Anytime," Peter said. "I suppose it's too much to hope that it doubles as an instruction manual?"

Claire smirked instead of offering an apology, and shook her head.

"I wish it did."

"Too bad," Peter said. "Guess I'll just have to keep practicing."

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

"Guess so," Claire said. "How's that coming?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"It's coming," Peter said with a shrug. "I'm still a little freaked out that I can't control what I pick up. It makes me want to wear a sign asking anybody with dangerous powers to keep at least 20 feet back. Assuming that'd be far enough."

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, but as long as they haven't killed themselves yet, all powers are controllable, right?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I can't be the only person who has problems controlling his powers," Peter pointed out. Though saying so out loud made him wonder if he was, and emo accordingly.

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

"No, but you can learn from everyone you get them from," Claire responded logically. "People learn to control them."

Re: Talk to the TA

"I'm just saying, what if they don't know either?" Peter asked.

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

"Well, they've had longer to figure it out than you have," Claire pointed out.

"What powers are more dangerous than your fireballing, anyway?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I don't know," Peter admitted. "But it could be out there. What if I could manipulate time? Or people's minds? Or kill with a thought?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

Claire wold have to admit that Peter had a point, except,

"OK, manipulating time would be pretty cool."

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Could get more hours in the day," Peter admitted.

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

"Could go back and correct any mistakes you make on your date tomorrow," Claire suggested.

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I like that we're anticipating that there will be mistakes," Peter said.

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

Claire pressed her mouth close, and inclined her head.

"You're right," she corrected herself. "I'm sure you'll be the perfect date."

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"Who better?" Peter replied, with false charm.

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

Claire nodded her head in agreement.

"I can't think of anyone else."

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I appreciate your support."

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

Claire beamed.

"Just let me know how it goes, OK?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I dunno," Peter said with a grin. "Can I trust you?"

Re: Talk to the TA

[savedfornow.livejournal.com]

Claire just looked at him, trying really hard not to laugh.

Re: Talk to the TA

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

Peter couldn't manage it, and snickered.
