Language Classes, Friday, Oct. 21

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

As he did last Friday, Dream has stocked the table at the front of the room with candy, popcorn and sodas and rolled in a large-screen TV.

Hello.

We are watching movies again today. Classics students, here is a filmed production of Oedipus Rex. I was not satisfied with the filmed versions of the play that I could find in this world; here is one pulled from the dreams of Sophocles.

Languages of Asia students, we will continue Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon from last week. You should be able to pick out certain words and phrases in the dialogue, though Mandarin and Cantonese are quite different.

As always, I remind you that I will pay special attention to students who fall asleep during the films.

Evelyn's eyes fill with tears when she reads the note. She hadn't meant to worry anyone.

Sam...I'm not sure what happened yesterday or what I might have said. It appears that I was drugged with some sort of toxin that had me acting strangely and had me terrified. I am so sorry, Sam.

Sam reads the note, shaking her head.

As long as you're sure you're fine now, I'm not at all worried. Next time just try and tell me where you are, okay? We're good, see?

She gives Evie a smile as she hands the note over.

Evelyn smiles back, but she still feels bad.

I think I'm okay, just my throat hurts from all of the screaming I did. Apparently I spent a lot of time running from place to place in terror.

Sam winces at the note. Been there, done that (well, almost).

Yikes. But you got help, right? Other than your throat, this won't come back, will it?

I don't know because I don't know what exactly happened or what was used on me. All I do know is that for 24 hours I was terrified that someone with a big knife was going to kill me.

That's horrible! Does anybody know anything at all?

Re: Classics, 10/21

[egyptianlove.livejournal.com]

Not as far as I know. I plan to find out, though. Would you be willing to help?

Re: Classics, 10/21

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

If I can.

Thank you.
