Bluffing: Can't Read My... [Period 5, Wed]

[doubleohblonde]

Bond was leaning against the bar in an empty ballroom as the class entered.

"Good afternoon," he began. "Today's your final, and I was planning on having a friendly game of poker for it, but let's face it, if we did that I'd beat you all anyway, and where's the fun in that?" Someone had encountered a snowflake before class.

"So instead," Bond clicked his fingers and the ballroom filled with people in formal wear. "You're going to be doing something a bit more interesting. There a certain people at this party in possession of keycards, each of you have been assigned one of them, and your job is to take everything you've learnt in this class to retrieve their card without causing too much of a fuss or being discovered. You can work together or alone, whichever you think increases your chances of success."

He gestured towards the cloakroom. "There are more inconspicuous outfits to change into in there, and it's also private enough to get a start on planning without drawing anyone's attention. You have five minutes."

Live Entertainment Appreciation, Thursday, Period 5

Jono was conspicuously missing from the front of the classroom today.

"Hey," Karina said, standing where Jono usually did. She gave a little wave. "I'm obviously not Jono, or Mr. Starsmore, or whatever you want to call him." She called him 'big and blue' when she was cranky with him after all. She couldn't judge. Much. "He's not coming in today. Apparently the polar bears have trapped him in the theatre and he's chicken." Er. "Not literally."

Karina was a fabulous person to have tapped as substitute teacher, clearly. What the hell, Jono?

"Anyway," she carried on, "he mentioned something about a sport called 'Kirball' that we were supposed to go and see today, but I'm ignoring that and changing his Portalocity reservations. He can cope. The school is paying for this anyway."

Not that she knew how the school could afford it but that wasn't her concern.

"Go back to the dorms, grab your swimsuits, and whatever else you need for a day spent at an indoor waterpark." She smiled for the first time during the lecture. "Because we're heading to West Edmonton Mall World Waterpark. If you want to ditch the waterpark and just go shopping in the mall, or do something else there, go wild. We can stay until the place closes."

That was probably not Jono would have said but, again, he could just suck it up and deal. It had been his idea to put her in charge. He could totally pay the price for that.

It was probably a weird sight, but there were all kinds of breakfast foods in the classroom today, along with coffee, milk, and juices. There had to be a trick here, right?

"As mentioned in e-mail last week," Batman stated, "I considered the events that were taking place to be your final. Whether or not you felt the need to go out and fight any of the invaders, there was plenty to do in the name serving the people of Fandom. Did you research? Did you give emotional support to your classmates? How did you respond in a time of need?"

"That's all I want to know this week. Otherwise, treat yourselves to breakfast."
