Applied Inventiontronics, Period 4 - Week 7

[a-no-brainer.livejournal.com]

The desks were paired off again, each with a set of tools, and there was a crate full of completely modable spare parts.

Yes, kids, it is project time again, and Glitch was standing at the front of the class looking very delighted by the whole thing. Really, this was probably his favorite kind of class to teach.

"Alright, class," he said with a smile. "Today, you're going to build something out of nothing. Pick up some parts and start to put them together. Don't worry if you can't get it to work or don't have a set design for it. It doesn't even have to have a real function, if you can't find one, heh. The point of this is for you to get an idea of what it's like to start building something with these materials."

There may or may not have been a moment or two where he bounced ever so slightly, but those moments should be ignored.

"And don't forget that after next weeks break, you'll need to be ready to bring in your preliminary designs for your final projects."

Nothing like ending the lecture on something to strike fear into the hearts of his students, though that wasn't entirely intended.

Rodney raised his eyebrows. "Just an arm? You don't want the whole robot?"

"Robots have been done," Doom said without a trace of irony. "A robot arm that exists solely for high fives would be new AND awesome."

"They have," Rodney agreed slowly. He figured the best thing to do would be to humor the guy in the freaky metal mask. "And I can honestly say I've never heard of a lone high-fiving robot arm, so it certainly would be new," Rodney tried to keep the sarcasm out of his voice, but he was not entirely successful.

"I appreciate the honesty, friend," Doom said. "Doom is actually from the past, so there was a chance that there was a high fiving robot arm boom in the eighties that Doom could have missed."

"It never really caught on," Rodney mock sighed. "But I can't imagine why not. Shall we get started (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1695148.html?thread=104337068#t104337068)?"
