Care for Magical Creatures; Friday, Period 2 [ 03/13 ].
"Good morning, class," Minsc's usual brusqueness was much more subdued today, although he still wore a smile on his face, greeting the students once they were all settled comfortably as usual. In front of him, as always, was the hamster, but also a small assortment of other items: scrolls, vials with bright coloured liquid, a few simple rings. "First off, I would like congratulate you all for clearly doing a fine job of surviving the attack earlier this week! Quite fun! I hope some of you got some good fighting in and those of you who aren't much for fighting managed to stay quite safe! In a bit, we shall celebrate as all great warriors should: by sharing our exploits with each other in great cheer! It is one of the best parts of an epic battle, and I could not dream of making you work when there is celebrating to be had!"
"But that is for later. This," he gestured toward the items, "is for now, as there is no work, but some very important business to cover."
"If any of you have been actually attempting to follow the syllabus, it gets a little messy at the end, but today, especially in the light of fighting something that is a fine but disgusting example of a half-creature, we are going to be talking about your final projects."
"You all remember my friend Jaheira, yes? Well, when she visited, as per request, she brought me some gifts from Faerûn. In front of me are various items for transformation. The scrolls will turn you into an animal for a week, the potions for about two to three days, and the rings are just a one-shot daily thing. I offer the three options to better suit your comfort. I will not hold it against you if you go for a shorter time period, but I will not lie. Those with the most experience are likely to have the better results. You have plenty of time before the end of the semester to make your transformation, so long as you can do it and have a report written about it before your final exam. This gives you the chance to better plan when to transform, to not interfere with other things. Which is more of an advantage than you'd like have elsewhere!"
"Now." Minsc cleared his throat. "I know that some of you are probably appalled at the idea of a transformation or very uncomfortable with the magic, or simply have reservations about the whole thing. I understand that, and if that is a problem, please come talk to me after class. Those not wanting to participate in this project who have very good reason not to will be given an alternate assignment at a later day. Those participating can also do this alternate assignment if they like, but for extra credit."
"Are there any questions? Let us go over those first and then let us begin in the storytelling!"

Re: Listen to the Lecture/Ask Questions -- 03/13.
I'll do it if you do it. Also, you still owe me dancing.
Unsigned, but he could probably guess from the handwriting and the content.
Re: Listen to the Lecture/Ask Questions -- 03/13.
You're on. 1 week. Pick a day for dancing.
... Well. It was probably obvious by that point who passed it to her, really.
Re: Listen to the Lecture/Ask Questions -- 03/13.
That would be a Bad Plan. As in; BAD PLAN.
Next week? Monday or Tuesday or something? she tapped her pen for a moment before continuing. Depending on my mood after Sunday.
Reno wasn't stupid. He could probably do the math, and figure out why she might be in a Mood come Monday.
Re: Listen to the Lecture/Ask Questions -- 03/13.

Re: Listen to the Lecture/Ask Questions -- 03/13.
Banana slugs did not file good reports.

And then gave her a thumbs-up.
Now he'd spend the whole weekend looking for a pretty pretty unicorn for Doji. Because she asked so nicely and all.
