Accelerated Scouting: Week 7 - Tuesday, Period 5

[pieandcoffee.livejournal.com]

Dale had sent out a notice for everyone to meet at the Danger shop today for their final class.

Upon arriving at the shop, the students will notice that the classroom is decked out in decorations and there is a cake, punch and assorted food available.

"Congratulations," Dale announces. "You've all acheived the rank of Eagle Scout. This is an accomplishment that you all be proud of. Before we dive into the cake and refreshments, I'd like you all to reflect on what you've learned on this experience. After that? We can burn all the uniforms."

[ooc: OCD is Up! Sorry for the lame class! Enjoy the cake and the uniform burning.]

Redemption: What A Crock [Period 6, Monday]

[sideburnsofwar.livejournal.com]

Ares waited until the class had assembled before addressing them. "Over the past few weeks, I've tried to show you just how foolish the notion of redemption is, and let me recap. Redemption is a ridiculous notion and will get you killed for no reason other simply because a bunch of idiots were dumb enough to build a city out of highly flammable materials then start a fire which they then decided to blame on you, get themselves killed and made into demon fodder requiring you to sacrifice yourself to free the ungrateful bastards. That's what redemption will get you."

He paused to let that sink in, then grinned. "Now that that's over with, let's do something a little different today and watch The Film Without Any Titans In It At All."

[ooc: wait for OCD up!]

Construction [Tuesday]

Continuing with the theme, there's paint, brushes and rollers set out for the painting job to continue. There's also the very loud, very ear bleedy sound of My Heart Will Go On being piped through the sound system.

Even Fraser's wincing in pain at that.

Announcements [Mid Tuesday Morning]

"Good morning little children," Umbridge said, voice high and lilting. "And teachers, of course. I do hope all you teachers are well this morning. I wouldn't want anyone to be feeling badly. I do hope all of you teachers have recovered from whatever ailment you might have sustained. Really, I do."

She laughed and made that whole last bit of dialogue sound unconvincing.

"Would Zack Addy, Xander Harris and William Kessler please report to my office immediately? We do have some things to discuss."

[React at will. If she called you down and you can't make it, don't worry!]

How to Blow Things Up: Week 7, Period 1

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly was waiting in the Danger Shop for the class to meet though she planned on ending up being outside by the end of the session.  She waited for them, looking more subdued and moving more slowly than she normally would for an explosions class.  Finally once everyone arrived, she began. 

"Thank you all for being a great class," she started.  "It's not every day that I'm comfortably letting groups of people - students or not - play with gunpowder or work with C4 or use hand grenades like we've done over this past seven weeks.  It's not been a completely fun seven weeks so thank you even more for staying focused."

"So today we have two projects.  The first is the one I gave you at the beginning of the term which was to design a plan to blow up the school.  If you've handwavily, I assume done so, we have a set up in the Danger Shop where you can place your charges and see how the plan holds up."

"Second thing is we're going to head outside to just in the Preserve and fire off some cannon."  Aly grinned.  "Which, okay, are basically outmoded now and entirely effective as modern weapons for this world, let alone some of the civilisations some of you come from, but they're a lot of fun, they're tricky, and they're temperamental.   So it should be an interesting last exercise." 

She went through a quick but detailed lecture on how to load and fire a cannon using a Danger Shop mock-up to demonstrate on. 

Once the students had tried out their explosion plans and checked out the simulated cannon, Aly led them outside for practice on the real thing. 

"And one last thing to you all," she said seriously after the cannons had been fired many, many times and all the shells used up.  "I've enjoyed having you all in my class." Aly flashed a quick grin at Sokka and Evie if they were there.  "Even those of you who might have been more nervous than others.  I like to hope you learned something and had fun, and I hope to see you in future classes I teach or in my office if you decide to visit."

[OOC:  Thank you for a fun class, guys.  Please, one last time, wait for the OCD is up!]

Sanitary Living [period 5, Tuesday]

[scrabblecyborg.livejournal.com]

When students arrived in the Danger Shop for the last time, they would find it programmed to look like a very tidy, clean...daycare.

Hannelore smiled at them, looking quite a bit happier than she usually did. "So, not that I'll ever have any because ew, but the hardest thing ever from what I've heard? Maintaining organization and cleanliness with children around. So that's your challenge today. Take care of a kid. Don't drop anything. Try not to be thrown up on." She gave a little shudder. "See how well you can maintain order with a little kid bugging you. I'll be, you know, over here. You've all been a really fun class, too. Most of you, anyway." There may have been a glare directed at one particular student, but it passed. "And you guys can always come visit me in town or whatever if you need stuff counted, or other organizing help."
