My Country - Friday april 11th - 3rd period

At the front of the class on Yondaime’s desk was a large tub of rubber fish; why not real fish? Because that would only end in tragedy.

“This week I’m giving you all a real world situation that you have until the end of the term to solve. You can belong to one of three factions in this situation; those with are team A, those without team B and those who are neutral Team C. I am choosing which faction you’ll be in and if you’re in team A or in Team B, you are more than free to influence those who are on Team C to join your side of the argument.” Yondaime smiled mischievously and sat down on the desk next to the fish.

“So! Onto the situation! The countries of Coragriffone, Silly Dragon and Orangeland have had a bumper fishing season and now have a surplus of fish. On the other hand, countries of Dorrek, Burtonia and Musicland have not and because of this it may cause an economical decline among the poorer citizens who rely on the fish as their main food staple.”

“Dorrek has accused that the fishing fleet of Coragriffone were illegally in their waters and stole all the fish that should have been theirs and are demanding compensation while Coragriffone wants what proof they have to the theft.”

“To throw another wrench into the works some of the neutral parties of Team C are interested in purchasing some of the surplus that Team A has, but since it may be stolen property some of them are hesitant.”

He stood up and crossed his arms, smiling at everyone. “The teams are as follows:

Team A
Ronan
Makoto
Alex

Team B
Teddy
Jack
Demyx

Team C
Michelangelo
Cimorene
Doom

I’d like you all to break up into your teams and discuss how you want to proceed with the situation and to pick a team leader to speak for all of you, and make sure you let me know who that is. Next week you can all discuss or argue as a group what your team wants and hopefully come to a resolution.”

"The way I see it," started Jack, in a Brilliant Idea, "is we offer a cut rate on the fish. And anyone got any maps or photographs of boats where tehre shouldn't be?"

"Ohhh maaan..." Demyx facepalmed just a little. "Why can't we just pay them in awesomeness and be done with it?"

Yeah...I agree, you need to either get it done earlier or do it in the morning :p It's hard to sleep with the lights on.

"Wait. We can pay with awesomeness?" Jack grinned. A lot.

Mikey was bouncing in place.

"Dude, I could totally be persuaded to take Team A's side if their fish stocks include anchovies. Anchovies are awesome on pizza with marshmallow drizzle."

See how helpful he was?

For the first time in a long time Cimorene couldn't find anything to say. "...anchovies with marshmallow?" She finally managed.

"Doom has no use for hideous smelling fish," Doom declared.
