"I could say a whole lot about ancient Rome, but, as with Greece, I am a kind man and this class is only an hour long. Not even that. So I'll keep it short." Steve went on to talk about Roman sculpture and architecture in very, very brief. "What's important, really, is that, like Alexander spreading Greek culture, Rome conquered everything they could lay hands to, and spread their culture, while adopting ~~Greek culture wholesale~~ elements of conquered people's culture and art. The ancient Roman empire was a real melting pot in many ways. Now for something completely different. I thought something hands-on would be nice, and while researching for this class, I learned that today is the date of an ancient Roman festival, the Lupercalia, meant to avert evil spirits, among other things. So your assignment today is to draw or sculpt a wolf. I've provided drawing materials and modeling clay. If you don't want to draw a wolf you can always attempt to reconstruct the Colosseum out of popsicle sticks. Have fun!"

Take notes, doodle, etc.

Savannah was taking notes... but she still had a dreamy smile on her face.

Naomi took detailed notes.

Naminé was sketching doodles. Wolves. And possibly masks and ball gowns.

What kind of wolf did you make? Does it look more like a beagle?

Savannah spent a good, long time sketching out her wolf.

Yes, it looked very much like a real wolf.

The Pack would never have forgiven her if she hadn't.

Her wolf was ... simplistic, like most of her art work, but evocative.

Jim's wolf was a stick figure.

And a ninja. You could tell by the bandanna.

After she pings in.

Naminé was here. And a bit giddy.

Who was not drawing Cap-Wolf, as that was one episode he preferred not to revisit.

...he hoped no one had told Bucky. Damn, Sam probably had pictures...

In other words, Steve was at his desk, lost in thought, but easily distractable.

I remembered Cap-Wolf halfway through writing this class. And then I had to stop, look up a scan, and laugh hysterically for a while. :D

A few months ago I walked into my comic shop and said, "I want to get the entire Cap-Wolf arc."

The manager led me to the boxes and found found the comics in very little time. I realize that it's probably because he knows it from doing inventory. But I like to imagine that he goes to find them regularly just to read again.

Anyway, wow does Cap-Wolf suck really bad. It kind of hurt from awfulness.
