Advanced Negotiations

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

Sorry for my short absence last week. I was called to do some advanced negotiations of my own because Mace Windu parked in Chancellor Palpatine’s spot. Again.

So, as I have to catch up, let’s catch up on some real life events. The zombie attack of last month. Which methods did you feel worked best to thin the zombie horde. Which did you feel were least effective. What sort of preparedness would you have in case this happens again?

Shooting them in the head worked best. That and watering them down apparently. Least effective? Glaring and scathing sarcasm. Didn't do a thing.

Next time? Keep the brain-eating rotted flesh-bags away from the school. And if yu must bring them here? Tell everyone to aim for the head and keep the orange dude away from the water.

Throwing coffee--the liquid--not so effective either. Beaning them with the cans from a couple stories up worked rather well, though.

Guess improvisation is always important in the heat of battle. You go to war with the canned goods you have and all that.

You threw coffee at them? Don't ever let the Librarian hear you say that. Or Doc. Or anyone in Classics come to think of it. Or that Jake girl. She might hurt you.

Improv is always a good thing, unless you're a mime. Or a brain surgeon.

Actually, most of the coffee grounds survived. The cans though, bent, bent, dinged.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Oh, well that's okay then. Poor cans though.

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

They died the way they lived.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Being hurled at the undead?

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

Well, I was going to say defending against zombification. I've seen the students here before coffee and it's not pretty.

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

I didn't throw coffee. I like the stuff. Some of my best friends are addicts, etc. I haven't been on speaking terms with it since it turned me into my worst enemy through the evilness of the yearbook food, but I can understand other beings' attachment to it.

Someone else threw coffee fighting zombies in one of the diners. And got lectured about inappropriate wasting of resources for it, too.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

You were one of the ones who ate it? Have you learned nothing from this school? Never eat the food. Ever.

Well as long as they were properly lectured I guess it's okay. Ish.

I don't think I caught your name the first time we talked, Jack O'neill.

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

Well, I figured in a decision between the proven scariness of the cafeteria and the unknown quality of the yearbook food, I'd go for the unknown.

I've since been eating only things that I've been importing from home. Lesson well learned.

Anakin Skywalker. It's nice to meet you.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd hope that would teach you something. There's hope for you yet.

Anakin huh? Nice name. Where're you from?

I didn't get lectured about the coffee. The moltov coktails i got grief for... and anyone who gives me grief about it in class will sorely regret it.

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

The priorities around here. Crispy flaming zombies now or rum and cokes that we might not survive to drink later? I'll go with the dead zombies.

[padmeofnaboo.livejournal.com]

There will always be more fermented beverage. I prefer being alive to find it.

Also, the coffee helped keep us alert, so, throwing it was a waste of resources.

Gotta agree with you there. Headshots sure took those suckers down fast! Not to mention that was way more fun than waterin' 'em. The boiling water wasn't too bad, though that sure made a helluva mess...

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Screw the mess, I had to swim through that crap. No way was I getting on a giant snake. Uh-uh.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Not with the big crowds it didn't. Gun became very quickly ineffective because you had to keep reloading and having about twenty of them breathing down your neck while at it? Really not a fan of that.

[can_be_more]

You just weren't armed as well as I was. *smiles*

I blew up a pulse rifle or two and that was a pretty good trick.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Alright, next time I'm coming with you. But the hacking was kinda cool, if not messy.

Edward who was with us had this really neat trick where he stuck something in the ground and all the zombies in a certain radius got wiped out.

[can_be_more]

I'm sure hacking has its merits. Especially when you're already irritated.

I might need to talk to this Edward sometime.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

It does actually, they were kinda getting irritating after a while.

You should, he can pretty much make a weapon out of anything. He made me a sword out of a street light.

[can_be_more]

Well, with the biting and brain-eating and all, I can see that.

,,, I already like this person.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Good point. I was mostly doing sniper-duty and keeping order.
