Detention, Saturday

[chosehumanity]

"Hey," Mitchell called, once the handwavey detention announcement had gone out and everyone had had time to gather up by the Danger Shop. "I'm Mitchell. Some of you might've met me." He grinned. "You're here because for whatever reason, the school has chosen to recognise your trespasses. That doesn't mean it has to be horrible, just unpleasant."

Another slight grin, with only a hint of apology.

"So today, we're going to be preparing for a tea party," he continued, "Although I'd like it if you'd all go light on the tea. I'm more of a coffee person."

He shouldn't be allowed free range of children.

"Just enter through there and get your finest," he said, waving at the doorway, "And I'll see you on the other end."

"Francine?" Dinah was adjusting a huge picture hat on her head. "Did you just randomly get assigned Detention?"

Francine leaned closer and lowered her voice. "Nobody said, but I think they finally caught me for the B-R-O-W-N-I-E-S."

Because...if anyone was listening they were probably five. Yes.

"OhhhHHhhhhh," Dinah said, because she was, well. Six, some days. "Well, at least it's not being run by the P.E. teacher? That new one who hates Priestly's hair?"

"Who could hate Priestly's hair? It's awesome!"

Francine was way too good at finding a way to be in a decent mood about this experience, but seriously. This, expulsion, or jail? Yay detention.

"The Punching People teacher, apparently. And it is!"

Dinah would've been okay with laps, or diving off things, or whatever, but hey, Detention with one of her fave teachers and new clothes? Even easier.

"And it's tea. Nothing scary about tea. Unless it's poison tea. And Mitchell would do that to us." Touching faith she had in her teachers.

Francine hadn't talked to Arthur yet, so she had slightly more faith in her teachers than she would five minutes from now, but she still didn't think any of them would try to poison her. "I guess if you're allergic to caffeine or something."

No, Francine, but deliberately giving Dinah more caffeine?

"I feel so sad for people who are allergic to caffeine."

And the world feels sad that you aren't, Dinah.

"I haven't done this since I was five, and Chad gave me cookies and Tony made milkshakes with me. We should do that again." She snorted. "Now that he isn't drinking out of a baby bottle."

"...Tony was drinking out of a baby bottle?" Beat. Beat. "No, I'm still on that question."

"While he was a tiger cub. It was way easier than cleaning up the mess from him trying to drink out of bowl." Dinah grinned. "And way cuter. Photos are going up on my door this week!"

With captions!

"...Copies, please!"

"Totally!" Dinah grinned in happiness at being able to spread the Tony-the-Tiger joy. She picked up a parasol and twirled it. "Think I'd fit in at Ascot?"
