Fandom Invasions Class #10 (Thursday period 3)

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

It was a single Peter Petrelli - Peter having absorbed his duplicate early that morning - who was there to lead Fandom Invasions Class.

"Hey," he said, to those students who were there. "Mr. Winchester's understandably busy right now, so you get me today. We're going to go off the syllabus and talk about - " Peter paused as a wave of exhaustion went through him. He leaned against the desk, closed his eyes, and in a moment it was gone as quickly as it came. " - about current events. I know other classes have covered first aid and things like it, so I thought we'd take a different angle."

There was another pause as Peter had to close his eyes again. This time anyone looking would notice that he looked pale, and his hands were shaking. But then in another blink Peter looked perfectly fine. "Um - yeah. Fighting battles is about more than the fighting. The emotional toll can be as bad or worse. It's important to know how to support your teammates. Keep moral up. Be there for them if they get injured or - "

Yep, another pause. This time Peter had to sit down. But, as before, it was gone in a moment. He gave everyone a rueful smile. " - or push themselves too far. No groups today. Let's just sit and talk about how we can all help the support side of things. And, uh - " another pause " - extra credit to anybody who doesn't tell Sam and Isabel I didn't get any sleep last night."

Peter remained seated at the desk. Anyone watching would notice that he kept going back and forth between looking fine and looking like death warmed over. Anyone really watching might notice that the cycle was speeding up.

Or they could be as oblivious as Peter was.

Discuss!

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

Talk amongst yourselves. Give your thoughts on the assignment... or anything else, really. Peter's not exactly strict about this sort of thing.

Adam was kind of staring off into space at the moment. Give anyone three guesses as to what he was thinking about, and the first two don't count!

Talk to Peter!

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

He's at the desk, looking like death warmed over. Except when he doesn't.

After everyone else has talked to Peter...

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

...somebody specific gets their turn, and once that conversation happens Peter won't be around to talk to anymore. Ergo, special thread.

Claire had alternated between glaring at Peter at looking worried-slash-scared for him. When she managed to get to his desk, she had settled on glaring.

"You look awful."

Re: After everyone else has talked to Peter...

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I'm fine," Peter said. And he looked it, for maybe ten seconds. Then his eyes were on the glassy side.

"No, you're not," Claire insisted, reaching out the palm of her hand to Peter's forehead.

It's not so much handwashing, but I'm running through Purell like you wouldn't believe.

Except maybe you would.

Hee. Alternating between hot tea and Emergen-C myself.

(Incidentally, the Vitamin Energy drinks aren't too bad either.)

Tag team? It can last longer that way.

Re: OOC

Brilliant idea. Plus, there's outnumbering that way.

Except for the part where every time I blow my nose, I check for a rash.

I have a headache and chest pain.

Am just waiting for a rash.
