The Art of Poetry; Monday, First Period [04/18].

"Well, well, well, my poetic little ducklings ♥," Shunsui greeted that class with that all-too-familiar by now lazy, sleepy grin, "here we are at last ♥. Our very final poetry class together for the semester ♥. I certainly do hope you've enjoyed my lessons into this lyrically beautiful world, and that you've learned something, even if that something is merely a greater appreciation for the poetry all around us in every day life ♥."

And with that, he started to pour a few cups of that morning's tea and distribute out the cups to the students.

"Of course," he then continued, "you may recall that I have asked you both to come in prepared with a poem of your own to finish out our time together...at least on this particular subject ♥. So, without further ado, let us get into it, and we can share and discuss or just share and find ourselves getting out of class a bit early," here, he threw in a wink, "to enjoy our time in other ways ♥. Let's begin....shall we ♥?"

Guiding the Powerful Yet Incompetent, Monday, Fourth Period

"The king," Yennefer informed her students, "has grown bored with the war. That doesn't mean he wants to call the whole thing off, mind you. That would be admitting defeat--never mind that his armies are getting their asses kicked, which is why it's boring. Instead, he wants you to come up with a way to win quickly so he can move on to something new and more interesting. So you have a choice to make today: are you going to do come up with a brilliant new battle strategy no one has thought of before, or are you going to figure out a way to spin the realistic state of things as a victory? Discuss."

Exit Strategies, Monday, Period 2

For a change, today Aphra had her class meet her on the front lawn of the school.

"Sometimes, when you need out of a situation, you need resources that you don't have ready to hand. Which means you need to get creative and find those resources." Points to anyone who could guess where this was going, especially today. "Accordingly, I have placed resources that you need around this lawn, and once you fill up your bucket you're free to leave. Happy belated zombie bunny ritual weekend!"

Yep, enjoy your half-price chocolate kids.
