Being a Proper Sea Dog, Friday, Period 3

Class in the Danger Shop? Check.
Simulation of a pirate vessel? Check.
Captain Hook wearing a new, purple coat with an even more ridiculous captain's hat? Check and check.

( Walking the plank! )

And so the class began.

How to Be a Really Famous Actor (And Other Acting Tips), Friday, Period 1

[nosefullofsnot.livejournal.com]

When the class was settled, they might notice a bunch of script books on Lucas's desk. Or at the very least, they'd notice it was a whole bunch of books. Was he going to throw the books? Who knew? Lucas himself probably hadn't decided yet.

"Well, you've gotten this far without making me kick you out of the class or throw you out the window or anything. That counts for something. And maybe you've spent this whole class hoping for some technical instruction in acting from a guy best known for action films. And if that's the case, I'm just going to laugh at you. You don't really need that kind of technical training if you're hot and charismatic enough. And even if you are both of those things, there's a chance you've just been gifted with the ability to remember lines quickly. That's me."

"But still, we're going to do a class on how to remember your lines. Here's something I printed off the internet about it. Read up, then go through the books on my desk and find a scene to act out because that's going to be your final. Find a monologue, do a group thing, hell, find a scene and play every part in it yourself. Memorize it however you need to because next week you'll be on stage in the auditorium performing it."

Dealing With Idiots | Friday | Period 4 (Session 14)

[prof_of_cunning]

The raccoon ears were gone. The money was not. The class got themselves, therefore, a positively cheerful Blackadder and no sign of Baldrick at all. There was a troll shuffling in with a tv set, though, then off to Buffalo.

"Knowing that the half of you who even showed up today are likely to be wittering away about ball gowns and getting your nose hairs plucked for the evening, it didn't seem worth wasting my time on a terribly challenging class exercise." That was Edmund's way of being nice, yes.

"...You may or may not agree." That was his way of being Edmund Blackadder. "Since today's topic is Ignoring The Stupid: Harder Than It Looks, you'll be watching a full episode of the only programme I've so far discovered that's even more ridiculous than reality television, while not shouting a single word or throwing a single kernel of popcorn at the screen."

He really did provide popcorn this time.

He also provided Ann Coulter's most recent appearance on the O'Reilly Factor.

Have fun with that.

[OOC: You won't have fun with that. Trigger warning for ... it's Ann Coulter. And Bill O'Reilly. And current events in Japan. You so don't have to watch it. OCD up!]

Apathy Club or Whatever, Some Classroom, Friday

[whateverknight.livejournal.com]

So... George wasn't there when Squall arrived, and the door to their usual classroom was locked. If he were REALLY apathetic, he probably would have just turned around and left.

Whatever.

He probably could have forced the door open with his shoulder, but he was too apathetic to actually exert any effort. Fortunately, he had Guardian Forces for that.

When people showed up, they'd find Squall sitting on a desk looking bored while two blue minotaurs -- one eight feet tall and the other less than four feet -- argued over the best way to reattach the door to its ripped hinges.
