Dogma: Fuck It! | Wednesday | Period 1

Class was, once again, in the Danger Shop. There was absolutely no way to do today's class in the real world without fear of getting his ass sued. Loki might have been immortal but he wasn't fucking rich. Unfortunately.

"Most of us will only live once," Loki said, smiling at the assembled students. "And I don't want to get into religious beliefs on resurrection and second lives and that shit. Not here for that. For the most part, we'll only live once. And if we live boringly, it's going to get carried with us in the afterlife. You really want some schmuck who's been dead for fifty years to make fun of you for being boring? I fucking hope not."

Loki got the simulation going and smiled widely. "You're never going to have any fucking fun if you don't take risks. Some of you, I'm sure, are used to taking risks. Some of you are probably sticks in the mud who wouldn't know what risk was unless it was a fucking board game. Some of the risks are gonna pay off and some of them will probably have you eating pavement somewhere. How unfortunate. If that happens, pick yourself up and go on with your life. Don't fucking whine, it's so unbecoming. Today, today's all about taking risks. It's putting yourself through situations you typically wouldn't try because you can. It's amping yourself up, getting your fucking adrenaline going and realizing that being a fucking stick in the mud is boring. Boring as hell."

Wow, he sounded like he was giving a pep talk. Loki dialed it down a notch. "The sim is set up for a few situations. The first one? Running through traffic. Yes, there's one choice of trying to dodge traffic on a busy highway. See if you can do it. If you get hit, well, it's only pretend! There's another sim where you get behind the wheel of a car and play chicken with someone else. If you flinch first, you fail the sim. If the person driving the other car flinches? Way to fucking go. If neither of you flinches and you crash? Well, buckle up! Pick either and let's see how you take risks!"

Half naked!

Chat with each other, wonder if Loki's insane, try not to look nervous, wonder if you wore your good underwear today!

Subthreads!

You're on the side of a busy highway and you have to dodge traffic to get to the other side. Feel free to mod anything you'd like here!

You're behind the wheel of a car and you and the other driver are accelerating quickly towards one another. Mod anything you'd like here!

He's around, looking smug.

I've played chicken on rollerblades before. It ended in a crash.

Calvin

Effy ~~'I don't like clothes'~~ Stonem

One person who wouldn't even need to try not looking nervous, was Effy. Even if she had been, she also had covering it all in front of most people down to a fine art by now.

For the moment, she was actually looking relatively relaxed, and even a little amused at this task.

Raven

Raven didn't have to wonder if Loki was insane. She was quite certain he was.

Raven didn't even know how to drive, so option two was out of the question. She took a few tentative steps on to the highway, and when a car came rushing at her, she instinctively teleported to the other side.

Calvin watched the traffic until a suitable gap appeared, then bolted across the road.

Hesitation was for suckers.

Gabrielle ~~half-naked is her default state~~

Okay, Effy could drive (well, she had her provisional license, anyway), but in this case, went for the out-of-vehicle option.

They might've been supposed to get to the other side, but half-way and a pause was what she was going to go for. It felt canon (http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/607/ixdul.gif) real enough that standing there, and just letting it come at her was a strange sort of release.

ILU for giving me moar excuse to link. I doooo.

And I didn't even do it on purpose! I AM JUST THAT GOOD. <3333

Didi ~~who is sekritly a Suicide Girl~~

Didi walked through the traffic quickly but calmly, trusting the cars would avoid her.

It worked.

Miles Straume

This is the best I got.

George Cooper

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III ~~who has no nekkid icons, but, seeing as he's wearing a bra on his head, someone must be naked~~

Zack Fair

Zack didn't wear his good underwear today. Was he supposed to?

In any case, running through traffic looked easy enough, and playing chicken was something he did on a less vehicular basis every time he went on a mission, generally with swords in play instead of cars. This could be a cinch!

Zack was going to just grin and make a mad dash for it, not bothering to stop to see if there would be any sort of break in the traffic. It meant that he was playing leapfrog over a few car hoods, and making one wild leap clear over the cab of a small truck, but it was totally worth it.

It was like a little mini workout!

Kurt Wagner

Dodging traffic was not dangerous!

...Okay, it was. It TOTALLY was. But it wasn't like it was HARD...

Edited 2010-06-17 01:58 (UTC)

"Nice!" Kurt called. He followed along behind Zack in much the same way, although with a few more somersaults thrown in. No teleporting, even!

"It's how it's supposed to be done," Zack laughed, shooting a look over his shoulder once he'd reached the other side. "Looks like you have the hang of it, too!"

Elle Bishop

Oh, enabling Elle's insanity was never, ever a good thing.

Loki might be her favorite person ever right now.

She sprinted across the highway, making it across unscathed. Okay, so she rolled across the hood of a car that slammed the brakes on liekwoah to avoid hitting her. It still counted!

"Only because I know I'll be okay if I screw up!" Kurt called back.

But, just to prove his point, he added a few more somersaults and twists to his last few jumps. And then, after all that, he misjudged his final jump and landed awkwardly on the guard rail next to Zack.

And Zack watched with a general air of 'oh, yeah, I could do that,' right up until that landing.

"Okay, man, even if you kinda flubbed that last bit, I would so not have been able to stick a landing like that one."

Color him impressed!

[And color me alseep! SP?]

Kurt collected himself from the landing enough to do a little dance on top of the guard rail. "I have skills! I am the skill guy!"

[Absolutely SP! You sleep!]

Jenny ~~I have so many options~~ Sparks

Helen Haras-Uquara

Edited 2010-06-17 03:31 (UTC)

Not one to be beaten so easily, Zack did a little dance of his own.

... On the ground, which was not nearly as impressive, granted.

"Go Skill Guy, go Skill Guy!"

Rebakah Cooper ~~who didn't fail like her player did~~
