Don't Do the Thing: Decision Making For Dummies [Tues, 3rd Period]

[jedigrammarians]

Not for the first time (and probably not the last, either), Aphra was not in class today, and there was a note at the front of class.

Why did no one tell me there was another hot lady archeologist holo coming out soon?

Or that there were games?

You're all fired.

You can't actually fire students, Aphra. Especially when you were the one missing work to play video games.

Library, Wednesday

[era_two_triangle]

It seemed to be raining in the children's section today. Not just a little rain, either. The library could probably handle a bit of drizzle now and again. Maybe?

Still, no, it was something more of a torrential downpour. There was a lake in the children's section. A deep one. Peridot was sure the books would be fine-- the library wouldn't damage itself, would it? But she still had to take a moment's pause when a honey pot floated by, with the bottom end of a yellow bear sticking out from the top of it.

"Oh, bother," the bear said, and then he floated around a corner and out of sight again.

Peridot stood there on the dry floor near the periodicals for a moment before going to fetch a 'Caution: Wet Floor' sign. What else could she do?

The Cryptozoologist's Field Guide, Wednesday, Per 1

[arboreal_priestess]

So, Verity had come home from China, but she didn't think her brain had, which was why today was going to be an easy day for everybody. Well, assuming that everybody considered 'brainless fighting' to be easy.

Walking into the Danger Shop, the class would find themselves on a train station platform while a giant steam locomotive--the Southern Pacific Railway's darling flagship train, The Flying Pussyfoot--idled next to it. Porters bustled back and forth with luggage, while passengers lined up to board, laughing and talking and checking their belongings. They were all dressed in clothing fashionable nearly a hundred years ago--save their teacher, who was a calm spot in the chaos of the station, dressed normally and drinking coffee. Wonderful, life-giving coffee. She nodded at the class in greeting just as the conductor shouted, "All aboard!"

( This isn't even the craziest night The Flying Pussyfoot will have )

And there was plenty of silver around if they knew where to look, including a car carrying silver from the US Mint if they felt like searching around. Weapons were also available, whether they wanted real ones or create something makeshift from their surroundings. "Don't worry about protecting the livestock car," she added. "My great-grandma's in there with knives and a hankering to kill anything that might hurt her precious horse, Baby. Otherwise, unless you have questions--" she shooed them all away. "Go hit stuff."

Anakin came into the classroom and frowned at the giant X painted on the floor, with the helpful "STAND HERE!" sign next to it.

He glanced up to see five gremlins holding a giant ACME anvil above their heads.

"I'm not going to ask," he said. "I'm not." He glared at them. "And no biting anyone."

There was zero chance of that happening.

"Right, so today we're going to have a bit of a discussion about a hypothetical situation. What, hypothetically, do you think would happen if someone stole a panda bear on a school-sponsored field trip?"

Rey.
