The Art of Pacifism; Monday, Second Period [03/09].

[sake_shinigami]

Having the second class of the week right after an absolutely lovely vacation like that was hardly what Shunsui would call an 'optimal situation,' and he considered bestowing upon his students an 'expanded vacation' by just not having class at all, but something in the back of his mind (or in the frequently envisioned disapproving face of his lieutenant in his bonsai tree) told him that doing so would lead to just a whole string of canceled classes in the futurue, so he might as well just go.

It wasn't like they had to actually do anything, after all.

"Welcome back, my little ducklings ♥!" Shunsui greeted them sleepily, tiredly, but cheerfully, once they were all gathered and cocoa'd. "I hope those of you who had gone on the trip had a wonderful time and those of you who may have done something else found something enjoyable to do all the same ♥ Today, actually, since I'm sure we're all still quite in vacation mode and not quite ready to relinquish it to get back to business, I figured today we might as well just share our stories ♥. A vacation is a wonderful example of pacifism in action," sure, Shunsui; it was, perhaps, not exactly the furthest stretch he'd ever made, "assuming, of course, you weren't spending that vacation actively picking fights and punching," since punching seemed popular with this particular batch of students, "people ♥. So that's what we'll do this week. We'll just sit around, enjoy each other's company, and share our tales of our last week, and then next week, we'll get back to it properly ♥."

Maybe.

"Pretty easy, neh ♥?"

Criminal Justice- Monday- 1st period

Back to the regular routine, all! Right after a time change! And your first class of the day was nonsensical! Good luck.

"Welcome back," Kitty greeted them, lesson notecard in hand. "We're going back to the Real World today… not sure why this guy capitalized that. Apparently back in the 80s there weee tales of a class out of a police academy in a big city. They were in desperate need of new officers, so they lowered the bar so much. Just so much. Some of the most prominent members of the class resulting from this included a con man, a man with the superhuman ability to parrot just about any noise, an unusually tall and strong florist, a small, generally quiet woman with some drastic anger management issues, and a gun enthusiast who was perhaps a bit too enthusiastic. This class of cadets was led by a lieutenant who displayed nothing but open disregard for all of them.

"The important thing is that this group had managed to pool their forces to save their city several times - as well as, for some reason, Moscow once - but it seems to me that there are other ways of bolstering a police force during times of need besides lowering your criteria for officers and hoping for the best. Don't get me wrong, these people sound like a good group, but I suspect that they'd be better suited to non-official law enforcement, like superheroing. They're definitely colorful enough for that!"

Kitty frowned. "I meant it's true, but he didn't have to say it. Anyway, the discussion topic for today is how would you strengthen a police force that is in need of officers to this degree? Or, are you cool with this lowered standard and why?"

Creative Thinking, Monday, Period Three

Aphra was nowhere to be seen, but there was a tv set up for them to watch as well as a note on the board about being unavoidably detained.

Hope you where ready for some high quality nineties cheese, kids.
