Philosophy 102- Monday- 1st period- Class #12

[fates_jaye]

When Jaye stepped in front of the class in the Danger Shop Theater today, she led right off with, "I have never been happier to not have to listen to voices in my head than when I'm in a room full of teenagers."

That wasn't actually as crazy as it sounded, promise.

"It's Thanksgiving this week, the most dreaded of all holidays, what with the unescapeable family and having to listen to people share food allergies across the dinner table and all, and so I'm just phoning it in today." ...Which was different from every week somehow? "So you're gonna see a movie about a tree that turns people into zombies. Yes, you heard right. Enjoy!"

How to Start a Business, Monday, Period 3

""No matter where you are, there are some kind of holidays out there where you're going to give your employees time off, either because you want to, or because you pretty much have to," Zayne said. "This Thursday is one of those days for us here in America. I won't go on about Thanksgiving because you guys know it way better than I do. But since this is a class about business and I actually have leave from the Republic Navy during a break week, I'd like to go back to my home and be thankful for a little extra time to spend with my family."

"With that in mind, enjoy the rest of your day and especially the rest of your week," Zayne said. "When we're back next week, we'll settle in for a little bit of business cramming to finish the semester."

SCIENCE! Club, Monday After Classes

[dollpocalypse]

Another Monday, another Science Club meeting in the Danger Shop, where one of the club leaders had ever-so-thoughtfully programmed the walls to display clouds to get people into the theme for the day. In a twist that was unlikely to come as a surprise to anyone who knew Topher and had spotted him at all over the course of the weekend, that theme was flying.

"So," Topher said when everyone had arrived, "this weekend, with the switching powers, I wound up with this random flying ability where I could just kind of levitate without anything about my body being different or using any tools or whatever. And flying is awesome, you know, obviously, but it sort of wasn't very scientific? So I thought today we could work on other ways you could enable flight that actually make sense."

That was where the lab, which was even more well-stocked than usual, was going to come in handy, see.

"I have a jetpack," Evan offered, smiling and bouncing on his toes. "It's actually pretty compact, it fits under my clothing and you can barely even notice it's there? But I'm kind of no good at flying. That said... if you guys want to poke at it, or come up with something of your own design, I actually got the Danger Shop to behave for once and make accurate replicas of my jetpack to pick apart, so you can see how it works!"

He wasn't going to let people poke at the real thing, no. He kind of needed that one.

"Or you guys could do something else," Topher added, though he personally planned to be first in line to play with the jetpack. "Like you know in that movie where the kid and the grandpa tour the candy place and they drink something and then wind up floating everywhere? You could do that. There's chemicals for that."

That sounded super-safe. Really.

"Oh," he added. "And if you can figure out to make fake wings that look like they could be a person's, that would be even cooler."

Liara glanced up from her corner of the room, looking mildly panicked. "I haven't figured out biotic flight yet!" she called. "I will elaborate once I do!"

… Yes.

Library, Monday

Anyone who came in to the library would have a rather difficult time if they actually expected to check a book out, as every time one was removed from the shelves, no matter the topic, it somehow became a Thanksgiving cookbook.

Placing it back on the shelf seemed to return it to normal, thankfully (heh). So unless you were planning on doing some cooking for the holiday, you were probably better off getting your reading material from the bookstore.

A Tale of Two Lions, Monday, Period 2

[halfman-lion.livejournal.com]

"Welcome to class," Tyrion said with a wince as he settled on top of his desk. His joints were paying the price for his webspinning, just as Spider-Woman had promised.

"Somehow testing the ability to make spiderwebs out of my fingertips was more interesting than writing class over the weekend. I'm sure some of you had much the same experience. As a result, today instead of talking about gaining power through celebrity, we're watching a movie about a woman who did just that. Enjoy the easy class."

And then there was nothing to do but press play.
