Weaponry in Film; Friday, First Period [08/07].

The shop classroom was fitted with a copious amount of what looked like some high-quality blast shields that morning, and there was also a very heavy supply of protective gear, so that was a pretty good sign that they were going to be having some fun that day! Amaya was certainly looking excited, anyway, which shouldn't surprise anyone who knew her, especially once she got started.

"Today," she announced, "we're going to be working with explosive! Live fire, too, none of this cushy protective danger shop stuff, so I'm going to start out by saying I don't care if you've got certifications from here to Serenia for this sort of thing," Diaz, "you're going to take care and caution with the materials today, we've got plenty of protective equipment to use, and there are specific designated spots for detination so that no one blow off a limb, but, on the bright side, if anyone does, at least we've covered weaponized limb replacements already in class, right?"

That was a joke, please don't anyone actually blow off a limb, Amaya really liked this job and did not want to lose it over a lost limb. If she was going out, it needed to be for more than just someone's arm.

"But we're doing more than just an explosive today," she added. "We're doing explosive artifacts, inspired by one in particular from a film I'm honestly a fan of, because it's one of the few movies of its ilk that seems to get close to showing what things are like where I'm from. Makes me a little homesick sometimes, if I'm honest, but that's neither here nor there. We'll watch a bit to get you inspired, especially the scenes where the explosive artifact is used, and then we'll set you loose on making one of your own! Or several, if you've got the time!"

They should always have the time for more explosives!

Crafts and Art, Friday, August 7, 2020

When the class arrived, there was a selection of different colored twine and rope and, of course, glitter for some unknown reason. The glitter just haunted them in this class. It couldn't be escaped.

"Welcome back, today we'll be learning about macrame," Tony said, frowning slightly. "Which is just tying a lot of knots apparently."

He didn't get it.

"You can make baskets and wall hangings and planters too," Steve said.

Truly what all the cool teenagers were longing for. Admittedly, it did fit that new cottagecore aesthetic.

"You can also dress it up with glitter," Tony suggested.

Steve held up his glittery plant hanger. "It's kind of hard to avoid it," he admitted.

"So, let's get started and see what we can make!" It'd be fun. Right?

This week marked Luke and Leia's birthday and Padme's death, so Anakin was in a more pensive mood than usual. "Today we're going to Italy," Anakin said. "because it's beautiful and I think you should all get to learn how to drive something very, very quickly."

Beat.

"Well, maybe not you, Beaker. Regardless, in through the portal, try not to get maimed."
