Care for Magical Creatures; Friday, Period 2 [ 01/23 ].

On the classroom door, the students would find a note to actually meet in the Danger Shop today. Once they relocated there, though, they'd find a room almost identical to the one they were usually in, only entirely without all those stupid desks and with a long line of large cubby holes along one side.

"Good morning, students!" Minsc greeted them brightly. "Please have a seat! Today we are going to talk about something very important for a person on this island and that is knowing how to tell that random animal showing up in your bed or your kitchen or your sock drawer or your chili is in fact a random animal or one of your good friends turned into an animal."

"It might seem like an obvious distinction, but the clearest way to spot a transformed person if they seem to exhibit very human characteristics. Another? Does the create seem to go through great lengths to try to be communicating with you? Does it seem somewhat panicked and not merely because it's a little confused about where it's at? Those are also very good signs! If you're an exceptionally good tracker, you might be able to tell by scent! And, of course, there's always magic, but that's a bit easy, don't you think? Can you think of any other signs? Let's discuss!

"And once we have finished talking about possible ways to spot a transformed person from regular animal, I want you to take turns going to some of the cubbies behind me! In each one is a different creature. Some are coded to be real animals; other are transformed! See how many you can spot!"

Library, Friday

Buffy was feeling better. She was healing up, she felt like herself again, and she was almost chipper because of it when she got down to the library. Not that she got there early, because that would mean she'd been replaced by a pod person.

And there were no vampires in this town for her to take her energy out on. Life just wasn't fair sometimes.

Science! Club, Friday, 5th Period

After a suitable period of mingling and waiting for people, Sokka flipped off the lights and started a recording of "She Blinded Me with Science".

"Ladies and gentlemen," he told the darkened room in a suitably dramatic voice, "SCIENCE!!!"

He poured the contents of one beaker into another, causing it to glow.

By the light of the beaker, he looked at the assembled crowd. "Welcome to Science! Club! I hope you're all ready to do some SCIENCE! Over the next few weeks, I'll talk at you some, and we'll do projects, and stuff. Maybe robots. If there's anything science-y that you guys particularly like, you're more than welcome to take over the club for a week or two. It's sort of free-for-all science. Democratic science."

He turned the lights back on. "So, uh. We should probably do the whole introductions thing. I'm Sokka, resident genius, and I'll be your host. I like romantic dinners, long walks on the beach, and real, ACTUAL science, the kind you guys call 'Newtonian physics'. Our adviser is Dr. Jones, and he's an actual science... person. I forget what kind of science, but I'm sure it's AWESOME. So... Your turns!"

Student Council Meeting, Friday, Lunch

Today's provided lunch was pizza.

"Valentine's Day will be here before we know it," Nathan said. "Traditionally Student Council has a dance as well as flower delivery. Joan has graciously offered to take point on flowers. We need volunteers for the dance. There's ticket selling and posting setting up the dance itself. I'll pass a sheet around for you to sign up for whatever task you can do."
