Fandom Invasions Class #3 (Thursday, period 4)

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

When the class arrived at the Danger Shop, they found John frowning at the room's remote as he hit several buttons, muttering about demons and possessed computer systems. Finally, with one last frown he put it aside and addressed the class.

"Good morning," he said. "It seems like the Danger Shop's projectors are being a little cranky, but we'll muddle through as best we can.

"Last week we talked about common dangers of Fandom that can pop up unnannounced at any time. This week, we'll be focusing on special events. Now not every special event ends in an invasion -- most of them run more or less smoothly and without incident. But some of them have more... exciting conclusions that were originally planned.

"Take last May's graduation." John pressed several buttons on the remote, his frown deepening when nothing happened but a slight whine. He sighed. "Which apparently we will be discussing without visuals. During the graduation ceremony, aliens came down and blew up the school. Yes, aliens. Yes, I know how far fetched that sounds. Welcome to Fandom. Luckily, the graduating seniors were able to drive them off, and the summer was spent rebuilding the school.

"But since the Danger Shop doesn't seem to want to relive that particular trauma, we'll move on to our inclass activity today." He hit a few more buttons on the remote and breathed a sigh of relief when the room changed into a gokart track. "Two summers ago one of the special events they had was a gokart race. As happens in Fandom, there were some uninvited guests." Shadows flew by overhead and if the students looked up they would see brightly covered, slightly quivery dragons heading for them.

"Jello dragons," John said with a grin. "They're attacking the gokart race and you have to repel them by any means." His grin turned wolfish. "Have fun."

listen, take notes, react to the aliens blew up the school story...

Johnny took a few notes, wishing he could have been here for graduation last year.

Well obviously the aliens had been driven off. Otherwise none of them would be here right now, right?

The jello dragons amused her much more. She hadn't heard about them before.

Aliens blew up the school? Hoshi hoped no one here had any anti-alien ideas. Maybe she should warn that nice alien guy who checked into the hotel yesterday.

Savannah? She's taking notes and boggling at that.

So that's what happened to the school. Good thing her family didn't know that - and she wasn't telling.

Jello dragons? Aliens?

You would think that a genetically engineered soldier wouldn't have so much trouble hearing these things.

Michael had already heard the story from someone, and there weren't many notes to take.

He was listening, though.

Alex listened intently, making sure to take notes here and there. Aliens blew up the school? That was different.

Teyla took some notes, and wondered if she'd be graded down for not knowing what jello was.

Lucas couldn't believe how frequently this school reminded him of a bad movie.

React, boggle, run, fight. However you want to deal with being attacked by jello.

This? Might be kind of easy for Johnny. Still, jello dragons were awesomely cool. He set himself on fire, careful of who was around him and his surroundings.

Re: When Jello Dragons attack

Ah, man. Taijutsu, hand-to-hand, was going to wind up a complete mess wasn't it? Jello.

Nonetheless Ino might have been grinning at bit as she stretched.

Hoshi's first instinct was to hide under her desk. If you can't fight 'em, might as well stay out of everyone else's way.

Savannah was trying not to giggle as she prepped a spell.

Re: When Jello Dragons attack

Michael was still not willing to use his powers in public. He was currently wondering what would happen if you pulled a jello dragon's head off. It couldn't be that difficult - they were jello.

Re: When Jello Dragons attack

[stylin-wizard.livejournal.com]

Alex had no idea how she should fend off a jello dragon. Were they even really that hard to fight?

There were a few spells she could think of that might work. Her wand was tucked neatly in her sleeve and she wouldn't use it unless she had to.

Teyla glanced up and stared at the dragons. Whatever they were made of, they didn't look particularly dangerous.

Luke looked at the dragons with a grin. They couldn't be worse than a rancor, right?

Talk to the TA

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

Who hopefully hasn't been slimed in jello.

Re: Talk to the TA

[tatooine-doofus.livejournal.com]

Luke was there and currently Jello free.

Talk to John

[demons-death.livejournal.com]

He's muttering what sounds like curses in Latin at the Danger Shop remote.
