Cognitive Logic in Understanding Evidence; Wednesday, Second Period [04/07].

[died8yearsago]

"Okay, guys. Time's up."

Look, if you thought Rosa was going to bother sticking around through another class of fumbling around a fake mansion for clues, you were wrong. As a matter of fact, she even changed the simulation a little, so that the storm was over, they'd apparently been there through the night over the course of the class thus far, and the sun was shining through the windows and birds were chirping as if to symbolize the end of it all even more.

"It was Alexa Daisy. She murdered her lover the night before the dinner party, in the conservatory, with the rope. The evidence was the fact that she was even here the night before the party, the hair on the scene of the crime, the video footage didn't make it clear but the figure in it did match her vague physical attributes, and the butler lied about having talked to Mr. Corpse the morning of the party because he was trying to protect her. So she's either off to fake jail now for getting fake caught or you're all fake dead because she struck again before you could call her out on it. Case closed.

"So this week's going to be a field assignment," she offered, in case they were wondering what they were going to do now that there was no case to solve. "Find out if any of your schoolmates or teachers have hooked up this week,"--not that she actually cared, because that would be weird and gross, she just thought it would be hilarious and would probably forget she'd even given this assignment well before next week--"and present evidence for why you believe this hook-up happened. Established relationships don't count.

"And that's it. Go find evidence out there in the real world instead of a dumb sim. And unless there's any questions," why would you bother her with questions right now?, "you're free to go. Get started. Get out of my hair."

Career Development, Wednesday, First Period

It had been a long week for some of the teachers. Yes, it was only Wednesday morning. That didn’t mean it hadn’t been a long week.

Or an amazing week that wasn't long enough, if you asked John. But, well, your mileage may vary.

"Props to those of you that showed up," John said, once it looked like everyone who was coming (Not Dirty) had arrived. "You get a movie. Learn how to hustle, and deal with coworkers."

“Keep your hands to yourselves during it,” Faye said with a smile and a wink. (It had been a wonderful week for Faye so far, thank you for asking.) “I know how difficult that’ll be, but it’s just an hour or so sitting in the dark.”

Honestly, Faye, way to put that idea in their heads if it hadn’t already been there.

Ok, so maybe it had only been a long week for Stark, who was giving Faye quite the side-eye right now. The look he was giving her started off as a side-eye anyway. “You don’t need to encourage them,” he muttered.

“They’re gonna do it anyway,” Faye decided with a tiny shrug. “Anyway, we have a movie for you, and if you just want to put your head down and sleep, that’s fine. I’m going to assume it’s because you were busy all last night.” So it was fine but it came with a side of Faye making presumptions, that’s all.

Stark sighed. “Just...enjoy the movie.” Stark was probably not going to enjoy it. Stark wasn’t enjoying anything so far this week. “Or the snacks. Both?” Maybe food could be a distraction for some of them.

It certainly was for Hannibal. He'd brought "Parisian" style popcorn, maple bacon popcorn, and buffalo popcorn, along with mini grilled cheese sandwiches, mango chicken puffs, toasted sambal cashews, spiced popcorn with pecans and raisins, apple chips with sage and maple vanilla yogurt, and parmesan shortbread cookies.

You deal with this your way, he'd deal with it his.

"Please," he told the students, "feel free to take some of this home with you. There is more than enough."

Flight and Flying, April 7, 2021

Anakin had been dealing with this week for more than a decade, so if you thought he was going to be nice about it, you were sadly, sadly mistaken.

"Today is a good opportunity to work on your concentration," Anakin told them, "so you'll be flying X-Wings through a trench run. Try not to explode."
