When the students got to the class room today, they'd find two things dominating the room: The DVD player, and a gigantic stack of silly hats of all shapes, sizes and colors. The bean bag chairs were back, too. Notably not in evidence was the teacher, but the TAs seemed ready to handle things.

"Hello," Jack said. He was wearing a colorful felt derby, which he thought suited him rather well. "Professor Mitchell couldn't be here for your last class today, so he left us in charge. We're ... exploring the importance of costuming to comedy."

This sounded better than 'we want to make people wear funny hats and laugh at them', yes.

He continued, "So put on your hats, note if they make you feel especially comedic, and sit back to watch Trixie & the Kittycats, which is a live-action adaptation of a vintage cartoon."

Kate, in her blue felt top hat, had been more than happy to sit back and let jack do the talking, but she had to chime in right before the movie started. "And we're totally making you wear funny hats just because you'll look ridiculous. And because we can. Enjoy the film."

Wearing a silly hat.

Pick out a hat! Listen to the "lecture"! Talk! Slouch into the bean bags!

A masterpiece of modern cinema, and I'm not even kidding.

Who are there and quite responsible, yes.

This is the very last time I'll post Jack in a classroom, guys. Hold me.

Chloe Saunders

Chloe kind of liked her hat.

*cuddles*

Well, Jack was there, anyhow. And probably would talk if spoken to. The movie was a bit distracting.

YAY CUDDLES!

*cliiiiiings*

Quite responsible. As much as Kate ever was.

Mostly she just looked pretty pleased with herself. And was playing with her hat.

Nobody Owens

Bod chose his hat because it was almost familiar. He felt foolish though but tried not to let that show on his face.

*clings*

Also, I so wanted to upload an icon from upcoming canon for this. But I resisted!

With his hat still on, Bod rested his chin in his hand and watched the movie. He wasn't sure if he agreed with the masterpiece of modern cinema but it wasn't terrible.

You stayed strong!

*hooooooolds*

(I have no huggy icons for Jack. Damn Ed Speleers and his lack of a career.)

"Morning, Officer."

Yeah, that was a smirking Kate tipping her hat to him.

"If I was at home, your hat would almost be in style," Jack pointed out to her. "Though it might not be blue."

"You're enjoying your authority far too much," he said, resisting the urge to instinctively yank the hat off his head. "I feel rather silly."

She examined the hat, holding it up. "Mm, in my old circles--" Well, Ben's circles. "--it would be, too. Except it would have to be black. Or maybe red."

"That was the point," she replied, snickering. "Anyway, it's the last class. I'll be stripped of my authority after this."

"Since I'm the officer today, does that mean my authority usurps yours?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Nah," she said, wrinkling her nose. "TAs are all-powerful. We're like gods in a classroom."

"Gods?" he repeated, trying not to laugh. "You certainly have a high opinion of yourself, don't you?"

Note that he didn't say it was undeserved.

"Why wouldn't I have?"

Really, now. She thought it was completely deserved. Or acted like it was, anyway.
