Study Hall --- Thursday, October 20th

Sarah sits at the front desk, leaning back in her chair with her feet up and looking like she's asleep. There's a few gigantic boxes of donuts, hot coffee and tea for anybody else who arrives in study hall as early as she has, and while it may look as if she's perfectly harmless like this, there is a pile of rubber bands very near her hand. The threat that she'll shoot them at anyone who bugs her is obvious.

(OOC: Forgive the mun, but she's just started a new night job and will be sleeping through a lot of the day, so it's either a few days a week of study hall bright and early or study hall late and dark.)

[ooc: *grin* Have you heard the radio broadcasts of Jean Shepard reading "Dangerous Dan McGrew" and "Cremation of Sam McGee" (one of my favorites!)? Ever since I was about 8 years old, I've been a huge fan of both "Cremation" and "Ballad of the Ice-Worm Cocktail."

To Dawson Town came Percy Brown from London on the Thames,
A pane of glass was in his eye and stockings on his stems.
Upon the shoulder of his coat a leather pad he wore,
To rest his deadly rifle when it wasn't seeking gore...


Hmm... Robert Service my be a bit too... Worldly? Real? Gory? ...for Kiki. She's probably be the sort to like Robert Frost or Emily Dickenson, both of which I can't stand.]

[[ooc: no, all I've ever heard was my dad doing them. It's official, I've turned into my parents. I can see Kiki as a Stevenson sort myself, or Wordsworth. Han is definitely all about Tennyson and Noyes.]]

[Yeah, the other things I was thinking of for Kiki were Robert Burns or Coleridge, al a "Ryme of the Ancient Mariner." Maybe Browning.]
