Applied Inventiontronics, Perid 4 - Week 6

[a-no-brainer.livejournal.com]

Glitch was at the front of the class again today, and on each desk were a few sheets of clean, un-lined paper and two pencils.

"Today, you're going to be working on the look of your inventions. For the first half of the class, I want you to sketch out a design. It doesn't have to be too detailed, but, the idea is that you'll get a feel for how it will all come together and look when it's done. Remember things like functionality and overall aesthetic appeal."

He smiled reassuringly at them, because this next part he was afraid they wouldn't really like.

"The second half of class, you'll be showing your sketches to your classmates and critiquing each other." There was a stern look before he continued with, "Nicely, please."

A moment, then, as he looked at them a bit expectantly before he realized he hadn't told them yet to begin.

"Oh, uhm, right. Go ahead. Begin!"

Oh, Ozma, it was the one made of metal. He tried to remember what Harriet had said about detention.

"Yes?"

[ooc: Sorry this took so long. Children are very distracting.]

"I need access to the Special Collections section of the library in order to do the advanced research on potential fuels for my invention that I wish to employ. A pass from a faculty member is required in order to enter it, however," Doom said. He was leaving some unimportant information out about what else he might wish to read up on in there, of course. "Therefore, Doom requests that you provide him with a pass."

Almost as an afterthought, he said, "Please." Politeness might make him seem less like a maniac in armor, after all.

[OOC: Not a problem! Some slowplay may be necessary due to sleep, though.]

Glitch nodded. Research was good. Less things went wrong when there was proper research. The whole thing where he was talking in the third person was a little off-putting, but, he could overlook that. He probably shouldn't, but, there you have it.

"Is there an official pass I need to fill out for you? Or do you just need a piece of paper from me that says you can go in?"

"A piece of paper should suffice," Doom said. "Doom offers you his thanks. This will make my invention all the greater."

"Alright, then," he said, getting a clean sheet of paper and writing down his permission.

There may have been a few synapses, near back, firing away that this was a bad idea, but they were generally ignored as he handed the paper to Doom.

"You're welcome."

Doom nodded regally as he took the paper, then turned on his heel toward the door, sweeping his cape behind him with practiced flair.

Because if you dressed, spoke, and acted the way Doom did, and actually had the audacity to call yourself 'Doctor Doom', you went the extra length to make sure that you had the proper amount of flair when exiting a room.
