Journalism Class - Friday October 14

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Spider is wearing a broad grin as his students file in this morning. The side wall of the classroom has been mocked up to look like a stage with two large doors, each bearing a number, and a curtain at the end. The cat is playing with something that is making helpless and panicked 'ribbit' noises beneath the edge of the curtain, and Spider himself is sitting atop his desk, legs crossed.

"Good morning, students!" He greets the class cheerfully. "As no one saw fit to come up with a project for Parent's Weekend as of yet, I thought that today would be Student Appreciation Day. One of the other faculty left the television on in the lounge the other day and I saw a show which I thought it might be fun to emulate."

Spider gestured toward the stage. "Every student gets to pick. You may choose Door Number One, Door Number Two or pick, instead, what's behind the curtain. Everyone gets a prize of some sort and a good time will be had by me all. Really."

Still grinning broadly, he lit up a cigarette and propped his chin in one hand. "Who'll be first, then?"

Behind Door Number One
Behind Door Number Two
Behind The Curtain

NOTE: There was nothing said about not being able to trade your prize for a different one or sharing your prize with your classmates (save what's behind door number one, which can't be shared, really).

Please Post Reactions Here



OOC: There will be threads posted for each choice. Comment in the appropriate thread. At the end of the day, (so that people can't choose once the answers have been leaked) three links will appear here, each to a locked post in Spider's journal, the results filtered solely to the students who chose each option. Reactions, arguments, 'wtf-ing' and the rest will please take place here in this entry, not the filtered posts. Have fun guessing what Spider might consider a marvelous prize for his students.

George is highly suspicious; the Professor's grin is far too cheerful to mean anything good. She points to Door Number One. "I'll guess I'll take the first door."

Phoebe is silent for the most part as she points to Door Number One

Door number one seems safest.

Beka leans in the doorframe, studying the options. There's nothing to distinguish them outwardly. "Avoiding one unknown fate in favor of other unknown fates is pointless speculation." She inclines her head toward Door Number One. "I'll take this one." Then she steps into the classroom to take her seat.

As an afterthought, she adds, "We should do a brochure or a booklet for the parents, like the enrollment one, but with our pictures and success stories from the year. Like Rover and Cally for Homecoming King and Queen. Highlights from the debates. Things that will show the students coming together."

"The lady or the tiger?" Somewhat amused, Krycek picks Door Number One.

Really, really not liking the sounds that are coming from behind the curtain, Chloe chooses the second door.

Deciding two frogs are enough for any girl and that the B-side is sometimes more interesting, D'anna selects door number two.

Re: General Commentary

Chihaya bounded in to class and pulled up to a stop when he saw the set up. Casting Professor Jerusalem a wary look, he went to his seat and contemplated which one to choose. And if he wanted to choose at all.

"Manatee, huh?"

John pauses for a long moment before shurgging. "I bet it tastes like chicken. I always heard that cutlets were the most healthy part of the koala. Could I take my date to one of those for prom? I bet it would be an unforgettable date!"

*rover rolled by the classroom and spied the doors.*

*he rolled by again and saw the curtain.*

*it was a pretty curtain.*

*rolling by a third time, rover determined he could interrupt.*

*wiggling through the door, rover's body squeaked and squealched.*

*fully in, he waited until he had the professor's attention.*

*and watched the pretty curtain.*

Spider paused in his conversation with his students and eyed Rover warily. "Hey, it wasn't my fault the handcuffs went missing."
