Have Portal, Will Travel; Tuesday, Fourth Period [04/20].

[somethingwithturquoise]

"Alright, guys," Summer came into the class just a smidge late, with her arms full of a box of donuts and a to-go carrier of drinks, "hope you didn't get too comfortable, because we're skipping the preamble and getting right into it today, since it's our last class and maybe we might even get out a little early since it's a national holiday."

4/20 was not a national holiday, Summer.

The portal had pretty much been ready to go even before Summer got there, and, unless anyone was feeling particularly ambitious and decided to forge ahead without her, she told everyone to get up and hop on through and they'll get started...

....in another classroom.

That looked exactly like the classroom they'd just been in. Except, actually, no, wait, it wasn't exactly the same. At first glance, it definitely looked like it, but the more you looked, the more you noticed the little details: the blackboard was actually dark green, the style of the desks were different, the desk at the front was actually bigger, and the numbers on the clock on the wall were unfamiliar. A glance out the window would reveal not a scenic view of an island off the coast of Maryland, but instead surrounding snow-capped mountains. There was something a little off about the birds flying around out the window, too, and it probably wouldn't take too long to notice a chipmunk scribbling away in a tiny notebook in the room, too.

Summer made no comments on any of this, sliding the box of donuts next to another box of donuts that was already on the desk, and putting down the drink. She opened both boxes: both had donuts, but different donuts from the other. And then she turned to the class.

"So I brought treats," she explained, "because it's the last class and I'd mostly like to just talk about what we experienced here, so come on up and grab some donuts if you want, I didn't know what you guys like to drink, so there's coffee, tea, and hot chocolate to choose from. And then we're just going to...talk. About what you guys learned in this class, how you're feeling about it, was there something you wished we'd done more of, do you have any further general questions? And I mean, we can also still definitely go somewhere else if there's something you still want to experience and I know a good way to go there, too. So....yeah. That's the class today. I'll mostly hand it over to you guys.

"Although, even if we stay put, we do have to head back a little earlier than usual, because eventual, this dimension's version of this class is going to show up to use the classroom. And while it's actually generally untrue that if you meet your doppleganger, you die in mmost dimensions, the version of me in this dimension is blonde, and it really just weirds me out."

Also, she did tend to have a bad habit of getting into fights with herself in these encounters, and she was pretty sure both she and her blonde!dimension self would agree that that was not a cute look.

Adulting 101- Tuesday- 2nd period

[throughaphase]

Today the class was in the Danger Shop, which looked just like it did normally without programming. For now.

"Last class," Kitty said. "Hopefully you've all picked up some skills that'll help someday, even if not all of them work for your particular situation. So for our last day, we're going to have some fun, because one of the parts of adulthood you don't really think about till you have to do it is entertaining. Today you're going to have ten minutes to come up with what you think a We're Done party for this class needs, including food, no alcohol, decorations, all of that, and then you're going to get that party."

Diplomacy, Relationships & Tactics: the Art of War [Tuesday, Period 3]

[atreideslioness]

When the students arrived, they would find that Ghanima had provided moddable treats from JGoB and the Perk, all of which were piled on tables against the back wall of the classroom.

"Welcome back," Ghanima said brightly. "You've managed to make it all the way to the last class, and hopefully you even picked up a thing or two along the way. We've made it all the way through Tzu's Art of War, so today you'll get a bit of a break on the note-taking aspect of class."

"Last week, I asked to uncover some tidbit of information to which you would not normally be privy, either via another spy or by doing the digging yourself. You will not need to share exactly what you learned, if that makes you uncomfortable, merely the method used to discover the information. I am curious to find out how your foray into intelligence gathering went. How do you feel about it? Is this information something you could use to your benefit? Would you?"

After the students had recounted their possibly handwavey exploits, Ghanima nodded thoughtfully. "To some, the ethics of spying are rather straight forward. To others, it holds infinite shades of gray." She smiled brightly at the students as she wandered the rows between the desks. "To yet more, it simply is, ethics be dammed. I will admit to being in the latter category, and quite happily."

"So now I am going to ask you to indulge my curiosity one last time. I'd like each of you to tell me what you learned this semester. It can be something about class, something about yourself, something about your own ethical outlook, it doesn't matter, so long as you have learned something. In return, feel free to ask me any question you like. I will do my level best to answer you honestly."

Sex Ed, Tuesday

[rebelseekspizza]

"Hey guys!"

Dante was alone at the front of the class this time. "So Kathy got stuck in portal traffic, like, f-- hell, who knew that was a thing, right?"

He held up a stack of papers.

"I got your test right here," he said. "No shenanigans. So uh, have at."
