Care for Magical Creatures; Friday, Period 2 [ 02/20 ].

If Minsc was the type to notice coincidence, he would most likely find this very funny indeed. But, that morning, when he expected to wake up and go to class to teach about unintentional transformations into animals, he found himself...

...unintentionally transformed.

He'd probably laugh about this a lot come Monday.

As it was, though, the class would find themselves gathering in the classroom, Minsc already there, as a giant black bear. Of course, the purple tattoo on his head was still somehow there, and Boo was nestled quietly between his ears, so, if the students didn't recognize that it was him, he was very disappointed in them and would be convinced that they must have all had one too many hits on the head (that said a lot, from a man like Minsc) and were all terribly stupid.

On the board, Minsc had still trying to scribble something with chalk, using his paws, and got about halfway through something that looked vaguely like "Unintentio--" but gave up.

He roared at them a little, hitting his paw a few times on a space at the desk in the front of the room. Paw, paw, paw. This is where you papers I assigned last week go. And then he stalked over to the board, going up on his hindlegs, and started pawing the board too. Unintentio--. Unintentional transformations. It was on the syllabus. It was happening to their teacher right now. Discuss.

And then Minsc settled down, blinking his bear eyes at his class and waiting.

It's a big bear, grunting and pawing things. Make of it as you will.

Leto frowned a little, wondering if this was some sort of test.

Firekeeper... didn't actually have a problem understanding Minsc-the-bear.

Alex really wished she could speak bear.

Reno was maybe a little amused by the teacher who happened to be a bear today.

Bleach him white and replace the hamster with a pompom, and Minsc could almost be a Moogle today.

Turn in your papers on something that intentionally transforms! Handwavey, describe, or write the whole damn thing, whatever you like!

He had written a paper. It just felt odd to turn it in to a bear. Would Minsc accidentally eat it?

Firekeeper did not have a paper. She did, however, have a short oral presentation that she reported to Minsc.

Arthur turned in a paper that showed both a) extraordinarily neat handwriting and b) a more than averagely firm grip on 'what happens when sorcerers are not only evil but also stupid and horrible at the same time'.

He managed to keep himself from using the word 'idiot' more than once, and the paper was rather extensive. Arthur was, as the local term went, a bit of a workaholic.

Even about the stupid things.

Reno had handed in his paper on silver-haired mama's boys who seemed to delight in carting around disembodied alien heads with the intent to take over and destroy the planet. It included a little bit about changing from one person into another. And it included a little more about randomly growing one wing. But mostly it degenerated into a long-winded rant about how much Reno wanted to bust in their pretty faces.

Dōjima turned in something about the kitsune. It was actually decently researched, although it occasionally dipped into Japanese without translating things.

Minsc is trying to communicate to you to open a discussion about unintentional transformations.

Whether you do it or not is up to you. He probably wouldn't blame you if you took it as, 'Hi, I'm a bear; I can't teach. Enjoy your weekend!' really.

Eventually Leto leaned back in his chair, looking quite bored. The novelty of having your teacher turn into a bear wore off quickly.

"I still had my tattoos when I turned into a chocobo, too," Reno mused, noting the purple on Minsc's face. "The feathers took the ink or somethin', I guess."

This wasn't really great educational discussion, but he didn't have much to work with, here.

"You did?" Leto had nothing to work with, not having experienced any transformations himself.
