Finding New Hobbies, Tuesday 6/3, Period 1

[stykera]

Hobby class this week was being held in the home ec room. That meant that, once again, it was time to bake with Stark.

Not like that, Stewart. Probably.

“Morning, everyone,” Stark said. “Today we’ll be doing something that isn’t a new hobby for me but it may be for some of you. Today we’ll be baking. I thought we could start with brownies. Brownies are fairly simple but you can make adjustments to make them your own, if you like. Add different things. Extra chocolate, cinnamon, coffee, or maybe some fruit. Sprinkles? There are lots of choices.”

The choices available included some brownie mixes, a simple recipe and the necessary ingredients for it, and some moddable options for toppings and mix-ins.

“You can also make frosting for brownies, if you like. There’s a recipe for that as well as the one for the brownies.

“Baking is one of my favorite things to do. Keeps my hands busy and my mind busy and then there are delicious things to eat or to share or both once it’s finished. I’m trying to make brownies with espresso today. Just to try it out. I think they’ll be good. You can all have some when I’ve finished. If you like.”

Norse Life, Tuesday, Period 2

Today, the Danger Shop was set up as an axe-throwing range, with a beaming Thor presiding over it. "Today, we shall participate in an activity that has become quite popular of late, at your bars and such," proof that truly, nothing went better together than alcohol and throwing sharp objects, "although the ones found at such places are often made of plastic. Fear not, you shall be just as safe today. This is all a simulation," he reminded his students. "The activity is quite simple." He demonstrated by one-handedly chucking an axe at a target, which it hit dead center. "Now you try. We shall make a bit of a competition of it, hmm? The winner gets a prize! A ten dollar gift card to The Perk, which in this modern day is just about enough to buy a coffee, I believe." Now get to axe-chucking!

Paintball, Tuesday (6/3)

[imafuturist]

Does anyone else need an excuse to shoot at things this week?" Steve asked. "Because we did."

Thus the paintball sniper rifles!

"We've modified the paintball guns so they work as sniper rifles," Tony said. "And set up various little hidden spots to hole up in."

"There are also targets located over paint buckets, if you're looking to increase your shooting accuracy," Steve added helpfully, "you can hit the target and flip the buckets."

"Maybe don't stand under the buckets if you're hoping to win," Tony suggested. "Just a little advice.

"That's good strategy," Steve agreed. "Okay, everyone, suit up!"

The Wonderful World of Art [Tuesday, 3rd Period]

There were easels set up around the room, and in the centre of it was a display of fruit. Very suggestive fruit.

"We're going back tot eh basics for this one," Aphra told the class. "Drawing from life."


"We were planning on doing actual life drawing, to give you the experience," Isabela added. "Unfortunately the only person responding to our ad for a model was Tino." And despite what some might think, Isabela did have standards.

"So, fruit."

"Fruit. That was once alive, so technically it counts."
