"Hi," Tyler said laconic at the front of the room. "I don't get to teach on Halloween this year. Which is good, 'cause I don't think any of you need to see me on a Saturday."

"But" -- he added -- "we're still doing the lab I did last year. It's a very complicated reaction -- here, have a handout. The supplies are on the lab tables. You should probably work in pairs, and it's very important you remember the quality control role of your instructor."

A beat. "If you need help with the write-up on the experiment, there's a easier version at the table at the front of class."

He watched the class for a second."Questions? Comments? Oh, and if you have a violent nut allergy, tell me before I have to take you to the clinic. I have an alternate assignment for you."

Like you are about to get CANDY.

Priestly

Lecture [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

... as long as it lasts, anyhow.

Ino was looking rather tired, mildly frazzled, and seriously on not enough sleep--but she still managed to sink down into her chair and snicker at the thought of last year.

Smoochy.

Science! [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

Or CANDY. It might even count as both.

Re: Science! [10.26]

Candy candy candy! Because that was totally what was needed in the morning!

Ino glanced around for a partner, fingers drumming impatiently on the counter.

"This is what I think it is, right?" Ben said, grinning at her.

Re: Science! [10.26]

[intraspective]

"It's totally candy if that's what you're thinking," she said, grinning over at him. "It seriously just uses the big words in a misguided attempt to fool us."

It helped, too, that Ino had done this last year.

Re: Science! [10.26]

[momslilassassin]

"The words aren't that big," Ben declared, "just scientific."

And it being an experiment might save him from his normal disasterous result in the kitchen.

Priestly rubbed his hands together and set to work.

This was gonna be cake. In that "easy as", "piece of" sort of way. Not actual cake.

Hey, it wasn't like it was a souffle or anything.

Jonothon wasn't doing the peanut brittle exercise, no. There was a mess to be made, with Tyler's permission, and he was going to go right to town while demonstrating exactly why you don't dump lemon juice on something with a large amount of baking soda in it.

Because if you couldn't eat treats, then it was time to do tricks, instead.

Talk to Tyler [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

He keeps snacking on the arachin, conarchin, oleic-linoleic glyceride protein pellets.

//I've no allergy,// Jono said, tentatively approaching Tyler, //though yer do have me curious what the alternate assignment is.//

He'd do the assignment if he had to, but he didn't really want to waste anything, considering he wasn't going to eat it.

Re: Talk to Tyler [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

Tyler had hoped someone would ask about that, really.

"Swedish lemon angels," he said, rummaging around for the recipe. "It's a similar concept" -- in that they were both sort of joke recipes -- "but no nuts are involved. You'd have to go up to home ec to use their ovens."

He was proud of himself for remembering nut allergies existed. He just hadn't quite realized parts of his class might be non-eating.

Re: Talk to Tyler [10.26]

[furnaceface]

Jono eyed the recipe for a moment more, and then nodded faintly.

//Interesting trade-off, that,// he noted, and then idly rubbed at the back of his neck. //I suppose I can always give what I make to somebody else, hm?//

Though, if he happened to make the alternative recipe there, that would be something of a moot point, wouldn't it?

Talk to the TAs [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

Hope they're good cooks.

Re: Talk to the TAs [10.26]

[not_tylerdurden]

Calvin was a great cook.

So long as noodles weren't involved in any way, shape or form.

Re: Talk to the TAs [10.26]

[furnaceface]

Jono... wasn't a terrible cook, actually. Not that he really had much of a need to be a cook at all, anymore.

OOC [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

... my favorite lab just isn't the same without the rhino costume.

Re: OOC [10.26]

[intraspective]

SMOOCHY.

I think Ino's still got Smoochy 2.0 in her closet, lulz. We totally failed at ever killing it IG.

Re: OOC [10.26]

[tyler_gone]

HA! I thought you did it the night before Reno left, but I have no memory. I don't think Tyler ever got it.

Pooooor, poor tortured Smoochy.

Re: OOC [10.26]

[intraspective]

*goes looking*

We DID kill it. But no, he never made it to Tyler. Hahahaha.
