Weaponry in Film; Friday, First Period [07/31].

[special_rabbit]

"Morning, everyone." Amaya greeted the class with the usual nod and determination to get right into work, because she had a feeling this was going to be the easiest part of her day, and she was planning on reveling in it immensely while she could. "We're finally moving away from weapons having to deal directly with the hand, although hands are generally still required to use what we're making today. And we're also mostly moving out of the horror genre and into the action-adventure and science-fiction, which is generally more my wheelhouse, anyway! Today's weapon, or the general idea of today's weapon, will actually be shown in clips from two different films, showing that it's an idea that was good enough to make it into several films, with slight variations, and therefor incredibly versitile and easy to you own...spin," AMAYA, THEY DIDN"T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE WEAPON WAS, HOW WERE THEY GOING TO KNOW HOW TERRIBLE THAT PUN EVEN WAS YET??, "on it. But enough talk from me. Let's get the clips, the firsts of which will be from an adventure with an unfortunate princess rescue plot, but the weapon more than makes up for it, and the other has aliens!"

Which was apparently a very big selling point for her. Because, look, teleporting evil castles and kidnapped princesses were actually kind of a big thing where she was from; aliens? Not so much.

"Let's begin."

Crafts & Arts, Friday

Today, the class was on the beach. Because it was a nice day for it and because the teachers didn't need to provide the source materials for it going there! Win-win, honestly.

"Today we're doing something that you, sadly, can't take home with you once this is over," Tony said.

"But we can take plenty of pictures!" Steve said. He was still excited about that particular 21st Century treat: taking as many pictures as you wanted at any time. "We're making sand art! Sand castles, sand sculptures, enormous installations of Abraham Lincoln facepalming in the Lincoln Memorial...have fun!"

"That last part might not happen," Tony whispered before continuing on in a normal tone, "But we've got plenty of buckets and shovels for you to work with. Use the ocean water to get the sand nice and damp to work with and you'll be in business."

Steve: now determined to build the Lincoln Memorial!

"You can augment with shells and rocks and other things you find around here, too. We have sketch pads available if you prefer to draw your creation before sculpting, too," Steve added.

"Well, today is going to be a bit different," Anakin said before gesturing at the puffy snowsuits he had hanging on a moveable wardrobe by the Portalocity office. "Today we're going to Antartica!"

This was what happened when Anakin asked his kids where he should take his class.

"So put on your snowsuits and then follow me."
