Journalism Class - Thursday October 13

Spider is sitting at his desk, watching the cat with morbid fascination as it brings him another frog. There are four of them on the desk already and judging by the noises created as it dives beneath one of the student desks, there will shortly be five. Distracted by the advent of his students, he waves a hand at them.

"As you know, Parent's Weekend is coming up. I've been informed that it's customary to have something to show your parents when they show up so that they're under the continued, mistaken impression that the money they're paying for your enrollment is actually being put to good use. Today I want to hear suggestions as to what sort of project the Journalism students could do in order to impress their collective parents, guardians, parole officers or 'other' when they arrive." Spider smiled maliciously at his students.

Rising to his feet, he went to the back of the classroom and leaned over the velvet rope separating the Newspaper section from the rest of the room and filled a cup with coffee. "Now, along those same lines, later today I'll be posting next week's homework assignment. As previously stated, this will be group projects and will require photographs. I'm thinking of groups of no more than four, unless we end up with an odd number, and I will," his eyes glinted as he looked over the top of his glasses, "fail anyone who does not contribute to the efforts of the group. Start working on your cooperation skills, kids. Your grade may depend on it."

Jake leans back and wonders absently whether Chihaya and D are available.

Trotting in, Chihaya was in a hurry and he slid on the floor when he tried to stop. He was successful in throwing himself into a desk, landing with a solid thud. "Hi!" he said to Jake, out of breath.

Jake grinned at Chihaya's arrival. "Hey! How're you?"

"In serious need of looking at my schedule again. With so many teachers coming and going, I'm sure I'm missing a class somewhere." Chihaya said with a mock look of exhaustion.

"Entirely possible. And I swear I've walked up stairs that weren't there when I wanted to go back down, which doesn't help when it comes to actually finding ones classes," Jake said wryly. "So. You partnered up yet?"

"Nope!" Chihaya said, reviewing what they were supposed to do. He was a tad confused but felt confident he would eventually understand what was expected. He turned to Jake. "You? I mean, if you aren't, we can maybe partner up and stuff?"

"That'd be cool," Jake nodded. "I have no idea what we're supposed to do yet, but I'm sure we'll be amazingly qualified."

"I'm sure we will too!" Chihaya said cheerfully. "Say...who else is going to work with us?" He looked around the room. If truth be known, there were some he would really rather not unless there were no other choice.

Chihaya would never say that aloud, though.

Jake shrugged. "Depends on who's left, I guess. Dunno."

"Well, Professor Jerusalem did say no more than four so if all else fails-" Chihaya shrugged. "I guess it won't hurt us."

Then he considered this was Professor Jerusalem and doubted his last statement.

[ooc: Since we apparently have no study hall today...are you game for having the dare go down here? We have everyone we need.]

[ooc: I'm still game - would Jake still do it, after the thing at the Perk last night? Because if we play it as Krycek being aware of it, Beka could dare Jake and thus take Rory by 'surprise,' which coincides nicely with the fact that she and Logan just reconciled.

If it's still on, that is.]

[ooc: Logan-mun knew, no worries. I'm all fretful about the detention situation, though, since I'm out of town this weekend.]

[ooc: Nope. That I didn't. Though I should have known, since it's very IC of him. Poor Jake.]
