Detention [Saturday]

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

All of the students who'd earned or been given detention had been told to meet Fraser outside of the Danger Shop. And that's precisely where he was.

"Good morning," he said pleasantly. "I trust you all slept well and I thank you for being on time. Please enter the Danger Shop."



It is now seven-oh-six. You have exactly eight hours and fifty-four minutes four hours and fifty four minutes to think about why you're here. To ponder the error of your ways and you may not talk. You will not move from these seats and you will not sleep.

"Before you begin your detention," Fraser said, looking down at them, "I would like to hope that we never meet again in this circumstance. I once met an Inuit elder who said that, those who get into trouble once learn from their mistakes. Those who get into trouble twice obviously have hard heads and deserve whatever trouble comes at them next."

He smiled and then gathered up each person's snacks before shooing them into the Danger Shop library.

"We'll have to make our own fun." As soon as he said it, he was aware of the fact that he sounded like a complete dork. Friday took a moment to regroup and try not to sound like a dork the next time he opened his mouth. "John had some ideas."

"Let's hope these ideas of his are better than the drunken barbershop one he had earlier this week," Lois said. She had been a little shocked earlier to see that John's hair had grown back so quickly. Clearly his hair was magic.

"Drunken..." he trailed off. "I don't know whether I want to know or if it's something best left alone. Do you have any ideas on how not to die of boredom?"

Lois looked around at the room they were in. "This room isn't giving me a whole lot of ideas. It's like they picked the most boring room possible for us to sit in."

"Well, it was Constable Fraser and probably Dean Jones that came up with this place. They're nice, but they don't exactly strike me as the exciting type who run off and have adventures."

"You're right. Mounties don't seem like they get a lot of action," Lois said. "What's the worst that could happen in Canada?"

"Rabid moose?" he guessed.
