DAMM - Monday Period 1 - Eeney Meeny Miney... Magic!

[bluewindbreaker.livejournal.com]

Byron comes into the classroom with a mug that says "#1 DAD!".

"Greetings students! I apologize for my absence in the latter part of last week if you attempted to come by my office. I was unavoidably called away! It's my understanding that some of you were faced with, and repelled an otherworldly threat! I'm very pleased to hear this. If any of you would like to write a page or two about your experiences, or of an interview of some involved party, you will receive extra-credit should you turn it in next week."

As he spoke, Byron's Montel Williams broach began to glow.

"Now, I'd like you all to get out the amulets you made for homework and we'll discuss..." He noticed the glowing finally. "Pardon me."

He concentrated for a moment and sighed. "Ooooh Rusty Rusty Rusty... I shall return momentarily! Tannim! Walter! You are in charge. Feel free to talk amongst yourselves!"

He grabbed an edge of his cape and wrapped it around himself with a flourish. A spiral of smoke curled up around him and when it dissipated, he was gone.

After a few minutes, a larger spiral of smoke came up from the floor at the head of the classroom, when it cleared Orpheus was standing there with a large cylindrical object with a few tubes up top and green smoke seeping from various seems and connections. And also a robot.

"Alright kiddies, change of plans." He said stepping away from the cylinder. "THIS object you see before you is called a Joy Can. Let NOT the name mislead you! For this is an infernal device. While created by science, it has properties not of this realm. And there is currently a young lady trapped within it. Now," he said putting his fingers to his temples and glowing momentarily. "The victim is not currently under any duress. ( Put on your amulets my students! That they might SHIELD you from the temptations of this contraption! )

H.E.L.P.eR. stood off to the side fretting, did you know robots could fret? The Joy Can hummed and leaked some more smoke.

[[ooc: Joy Can and Robot modded with permission. More information about the Joy Can will be given in OCD. ETA-Main post updated Please wait for OCD OPEN This is part one. Part two with the resolution of the problem will be posted Monday morning as I would like to incorporate any suggestions you might come up with. ETA the 2nd: If you would like to be tempted by the Joy Can, please ping the ooc thread with a bit of direction. It can be something good or the Joy Can can even be wrong. Byron won't let you enter the can however. ETA the 3rd: This is going quite well and I know people need to sleep and work so I'll post part 2 in the evening. Also, if you would like to use a particular power or item on the Can, please ping me in the ooc thread with a quick idea of what it does and I'll do my best to accommodate you. What each person sees in the can when it tries to tempt them is ONLY seen by that person, fyi.]]

Ethics [Monday, February 5, 5th period]

[sith_happened]

The door to the Ethics classroom rocked back on its hinges as per usual but instead of a cloaked Sith Lord, a small ball hovered its way into the room.

It was black. It was shiny. It was incredibly menacing.

It surveyed the class for a long, quiet moment before Vader entered the room.

"There was a rebel captured recently in my home galaxy," Vader began, "who possessed knowledge about where the headquarters of her wrong-headed and illegal organization was located. After extensive interrogation, it was decided that extreme measures must be taken to get her to reveal her information."

Vader paused, the only sound in the room his ventilation unit.

"So we destroyed her home planet from space."

Vader paced in front of his desk, his black cape sweeping out behind him. "This is an interrogation droid," he continued, waving his hand at the hovering orb. "There are times when asking politely for information accomplishes nothing and blowing up a planet is inconvenient."

It was very clear that the interrogation droid had no capacity for talking, though. It was an extremely advanced instrument of torture.

"Today, we will conduct an experiment," Vader said, staring down the students. "Half of you will be rebel traitors who possess information about the location of your secret base." Those students received a slip of paper on their desks. "The other half of you are Imperial guards trying to obtain this information from your prisoner. I, personally, do not care what form your...questioning takes, but you cannot use actual physical violence."

There was a long pause. "In this particular exercise. In a real interrogation, it is practically required. When you reach a stalemate in your negotiations--and feel free to shoot at the prisoners with the water pistols from last week, for I do not see how getting wet can possible be construed as physical violence--," he said to the interrogators, pointing towards the box on his desk, "you may talk with your partner about how far you would be willing to go if the school would allow you to use physical violence, or if you had more time to get the prisoner to become...more pliable. Sleep deprivation also works very well."

He spun on his heel. "And don't do anything to make the interrogator droid notice you. Its programming is very sensitive. It would be a lot of paperwork if any of you were inadvertently tortured."

"Today, for the first part of the period, work in pairs or groups to review the material we covered in the previous classes. I will be available to take questions if you have them. When the review period is over, Miss Lang and Miss Halliwell will pass around your exams, and you'll have the remainder of the period to complete them. Before you leave today, I will need absence excuses from Armony Eiselstein and Phoebe Halliwell."

Conflict Management and Resolution: Mon Period 4 - Class # 5 - Feb 5

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Wilson was leaning against the desk, a stack of blue books and a stack of tests. There were none of the usual treats today, since it was a test day.

When the students were settled in their chairs, Wilson picked up the tests and the blue books.

“Good morning, students. I hope you’re all ready for the test today. Everyone did so well working through last week’s scenario question that the test today is going to focus on written rather than practical. You have all class period to complete the test and may use as many blue books as necessary for your answers.”

With instructions given, Wilson set about passing out the test and the blue books.
