Introductory Superhuman Physics, Tuesday Fourth Period [9-2]

At first, there was no teacher at the front of the classroom, and the blackboard was blank. Then, there was a swift breeze, and suddenly a lean man with pointy features stood at the front of the room. The blackboard now read:

Introductory Superhuman Physics
Mr. Beaubier

"Good afternoon, everyone," Jean-Paul said. "This is Introductory Superhuman Physics; if you are one of our new and naive students allow me to take this opportunity to teach lesson one: yes, superpowers exist. A lot of your fellow students and teachers have them. I direct your attention to my feet." Which were hovering several inches off the floor. "In this class we will be covering how these superpowers work. The class is titled 'physics' but will by necessity delve into some biological matters as well, and as a disclaimer, I will tend to default to how these things work in my home universe. If you happen to know your universe works differently on a particular topic, I would be very pleased if you would share with the class. Your syllabus is not ready this week due to Dragon*Con; I will have it for you by next week.

"Now, for this week, we will do the usual round of introductions. This will also help me tailor your syllabus. I would like to know your name, where you are from, why you are taking this class, and about any superpowers you might have. Simple, non?"

Do what it says on the topic bar.

Momoko listened to the lecture, slightly conflicted. She was supposed to keep her identity secret, but she'd made that oath over two years ago. Now a TEACHER was asking about it. But if everyone else knew about superpowers and even had them, then it really didn't matter if she did too, right? And it would be cool to be able to hang out with other people who had superpowers! May even form a team here at Fandom just like her team back home? Oh. Would they kick her out of the team back home if she had one here? Maybe stop sending her money for cakes?

"Hmmm. What to do, what to do?"

Katchoo . . . had not been expecting quite this subject material when she signed up for this class.

Seriously, superhumans? She supposed after a couple of months in Fandom she shouldn't be surprised they existed, but it still kind of blew her mind that you could actually teach a class on this stuff.

Francine had been expecting this subject matter when she signed up. She was also well aware that most of the science would fly completely over her head, but... flying. She had loved flying, when she was a pony. So she wanted to know more about the whole superdooper deal.
