Mad Thientithtth And How To Thurvive Them [week 01 - period 03]

[canlendyouahand.livejournal.com]

"Welcome to Thurviving Mad Thientithtth." Igor gave the assembled students a big toothy grin. "While you are in thith clath, lithping will be mandatory. It ith an Igor tradition. I am teaching you how to be Igorth, therefore, you will lithp." Igor handed each student a satchel, containing a number of items, and a syllabus. "The Igor clan hath a long tradition of therving thothe whom otherth might judge to be of quethionable thanity, conveniently lumped under the term mad thcientithtth. Thith ith your firtht letthon: we make no moral judgementh, we jutht do our jobth. Our job ith whatever the mathter requireth and if you want to thurvive working for a mad thientitht, you do your job well.

Today, the job ith in three partth. Firtht, introduthe yourthelf tho we can get to know each other. Thecond, tell me what you would take out of a burning building. Third, practithe your lithping by repeating thith phrathe." He passed out pieces of paper on which was written: She sells sea shells by the sea shore.

"Next week, everyone wear clotheth you don't mind getting thtained. Actually, wear thoth every week; until you refine your techniqueth, you're going to get methy. And don't forget your thatchelth."

[ooc: Pleathe wait for And we have OCD! If writing out the lisping gets to be too much, you can handwave it as long as you indicate in narrative that the character lisped. Otherwise, Igor will patiently correct them.]

"Oh, come on, you didn't even try," Agnes pointed out. "I think it's kind of -- " Stupid. And silly. "-- fun."

"Why should I try?" Jenny asked. "The way I talk is perfectly fine."

"I didn't say it wasn't," Agnes told her. "But, you know, everyone else is doing the lisping thing, and Mr. Igor seems pretty fond of it... You're trying to look 'cool', but really you're just making yourself look silly."

Jenny just looked at her roommate in a way that possibly suggested Agnes wouldn't know 'cool' if it jumped up and bit her somewhere unpleasant.

Agnes looked back at her roommate in a way that suggested that half of her wanted to be Jenny, while the other half of her thought she was a stuck-up bitch.

"Thuit yourthelf."
