fandomhigh | Wednesday: What was the school board thinking giving Jamie Madrox a teaching position?

Instead of going to a classroom today, the students were directed to the third floor of the dorms where they would find the hallway teeming with Jamie-Dupes wearing labcoats and goggles. Each one of them had a clipboard, calipers, measuring tape, litmus strips, cotton swabs and all sorts of scientific goodies that they seemed to be using on all of the doorknobs on the third floor.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Jamie said stepping forward and pulling down his goggles. "Today we leave our childhood behind and step into the future. Into the grand thing we know as... SCIENCE!"

If Reed Richards knew what was going to happen next, there would be a lot of weeping for the future.

"It has long been hypothesized that the doors in the dorms have curious properties."

Um. No. They really haven't.

"In fact one might say the doorknobs of these doors... taste like bacon."

Yep. Reed Richards. Big honking tears.

"Your job is to lick these doorknobs and see if they taste like bacon. FOR SCIENCE!"

Don't expect to get a Nobel prize for this one Jamie.

"Oh, like you can't find that out on the internet," Jamie said with a comical sigh.

"Right, Silly me, trying to ask a teacher."

"Yes, but Trini Lopez and 8-tracks are on next semester's coursework," Jamie replied. "Just think of this research as... Advanced placement."

"You're assuming I'd take another class with you," Claudia pointed out.

She might, actually. It seemed like good training for working for Artie full time.

"Well why wouldn't you?" Jamie asked with a confused look. "It's not like it's a hard class. Plus it'll look great on your transcripts!"

It so would not look good on your transcripts.

"Transcripts for where? Fandom University?"

"Well I would imagine any ivy league school would love a graduate from here."

Okay, now he was clearly joking.

"Well, I guess I could always come back and teach here."

"I did," Jamie said looking oddly... sentimental. "It feels good to give back."

"You mean the school board already knew you and they hired you?" Claudia blinked. "Wow, accurate class name."
