Adventures in Literature, Wednesday, Period Three [Class Fourteen]

[carpe_demon]

Drake had sent out a notice to his students that class would be in the Danger Shop again. When the students arrived, however, Drake was nowhere in sight. The Danger Shop had been transformed into a medievally gothic room all decorated in blue, with blue stained-glass windows. To the west was a door leading to the next room.

There were extravagant medieval costumes (and masks) for those who wished to wear them, but it wasn't necessary.

A parchment stuck to the entrance of the Danger Shop read: The prince had provided all the appliances of pleasure. There were buffoons, there were improvisatori, there were ballet-dancers, there were musicians, there was Beauty, there was wine. All these and security were within. Without was the "Red Death."

There were a twisty maze of passageways, all alike. Well, not quite alike. While each room held couches for lounging, drinks and snacks for nomming, and music for grooving, each one was a different color....

"You're dead," Drake said in his most ominous voice.

"...Well, I sure don't feel dead," Hayley said, though she looked worried.

"...there was a book?" Hayley said. "I'm sorry, I been so distracted with not taking care of my robot baby."

Drake lifted the mask. Ominously. "Books, yeah, they come with the literature class deal."

"Heeeeey, you're not a mime," Hayley said. "Why weren't you talking before?"

She was deflecting a little. She didn't want to feel guilty.
