Language classes -- Monday, Oct. 3

Hello.

There will be a quiz in all classes today, consisting of 10 vocabulary and usage questions. You will also be asked to translate a brief passage.

I expect all students who have attended class regularly to do very well.

In addition, I am still updating my class rosters. Students who do not show up to at least one class before Friday will be dropped.

I am in my office this afternoon, should you have questions or concerns.

[OOC: Classes are in comment threads. Comment with "attempted-passed, attempted-failed, or attempted-excelled."]

In spite of the hangover, Rory also manages to excel on her other quiz.

(attempted/excelled)

After she takes the quiz (attempted-excelled), Lane leans over and whispers,

"Hey, are you okay?"

Rory smiles, and says, "Yeah. I went to a party last night, and I'm...well, I'm feeling the effects of drinking something a little stronger than I anticipated."

"I see. I'm glad it's nothing too serious."

*Lane knows her mother is not actually here, but that 'voice of reason' still plays over and over in her head, making her feel guilty when she thinks about partying and stuff like that.*

Rory smiles sheepishly, and a hint of color sneaks back into her cheek.

She suddenly thinks of something she's been meaning to talk to Lane about. "Hey, you're in that fashion class, right?"

"Yeah, why?"

*Lane knows why Rory is asking, but she feels like making her work for it today.*

Rory lifts her sunglasses, deciding she can brave the classroom light in favor of making eye contact with her friend.

"You guys are making my sidekick outfit, aren't you? Please, please, please tell me that someone has come up with something tasteful. My lab partner - the Malfoy guy - mentioned something about...latex and high boots."

*Lane tries ultra-hard not to laugh*

"Oh, yeah, we have been working on that. I'm gonna level with you, Rory. It's not pretty. There was an awful lot of spandex, short shorts, and the color pink flying around that room last week."

*cringes*

"But, hey - you'd look good in anything, right?"

Rory rolls her eyes.

"But can I fight crime in anything? And moreover, I heard that this guy whose been...obnoxious to me is in that class, and I can just imagine that he'll try to put me in something awful."

"Well, how much actual crime-fighting do you anticipate doing, anyway?

I can promise my design is not the worst thing imaginable, but I can't vouch for anyone else. And that Beeblebrox guy seems to fancy the more hideous options anyway. Do you get to make the final decision? I'm not sure I'd trust him! And what obnoxious guy?"

"I have no idea. The Tick seems to just want companionship while he wanders around fighting crime," Rory says with a shrug.

"I think I get costume approval. Beeblerox kind of evaded the question when I asked, though. And for the obnoxious guy..."

Rory looks around, and lowers her voice confidentially. "His name's Logan Huntzberger. Do you know him?"

"Oh my gosh!"

*lowers voice*

"Oh my gosh -are you serious? He's totally my partner. And, hey - that would explain his whole attitude in class last week. What a jerk. What did he do to you anyway? He wouldn't let me see his design, so I don't even know what I'll have to be 'modeling' in this week's class."

"Are you kidding? He's your partner?" Rory whispers frantically. "Okay, so last week in our communications class, he kissed me. Totally not invited, and completely invasive. And I got into a big fight with Logan - Logan Echolls, I mean, the one I'm dating - over it."

She taps her pencil against the desk angrily. "Oh, he better not come up with something slutty for me to wear or something. Or for you to wear, rather," she says, shooting an apologetic glance at Lane.

"WHAT?!! That is crazy! Who even does stuff like that?! That takes jerk to a whole new level."

*Lane secretly wonders why the exciting stuff never happens to her*

"Oh, man - thanks a lot, Rory! I bet that outfit is going to be crazy-ugly." *sighs* "But I'll take one for team Gilmore. Speaking of 'team Gilmore' - the diner was 'blown up'? How's Luke taking it? Any word on rebuilding?"

"Yeah, I mean...it was sort of for class, but he took it too far. And...yeah. I'm not talking to him. But I am very sorry about the costume," she adds, wincing. "Especially if it's the one I end up wearing, too."

Rory sighs. "As for the diner...they're rebuilding - I think it might've already started. And Luke didn't take it very well...but he, um, doesn't know how it was blown up, exactly. He thinks it was the zombies...which is one way of putting it, I guess," she says with a wry grin.

*Lane laughs*

"Yeah, you can blame just about anything on the zombies around here, it seems!"

Attempted - excelled

[Attempted/passed]

Sora groaned slightly, all this talk about home coming and stuff was messing up his focus on studying.
