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.

Boggling at Jamie. Or for bonus points: About to lick something.

Also known as "Boggling at Jamie"

Mmmm. Tasty Doorknobs. No, you don't have to lick them. Though you'll be encouraged to do so.

Also known as the control group.

"Claudia? You're the control group. I'm going to need you to eat five pounds of cooked bacon."

Hopefully Claudia was hungry.

Who might possibly think that having a lab coat makes him a scientist.

IDEK

Cara

Yeeeeah, Cara wasn't doing this. Throw her in detention for all she cared.

Sam LaCroix

...right. Sam hadn't really expected to be licking doorknobs for class. He was really starting to wonder if there was something off in Professor Madrox's head because this was just weird.

And considering he had no idea what people put on their doorknobs, he was hesitant.

Shane Gooseman

Sam was staring at the line of doorknobs and then he was staring back at the teacher. He honestly didn't know if he was going to be able to lick doorknobs. He was ninety nine percent positive that they didn't taste like bacon and he didn't need to lick them to make that decision.

Doorknobs probably tasted like...metal.

"Cara! I can tell that you are ready to jump into the joys of the scientific process!" Jamie said cheerfully. "Are you ready to lick a doorknob in the name of science?"

"I'm allergic to doorknobs," Cara lied. Blatantly.

"Sam? Judging from the expression on your face I'm thinking you have some doubts. Do I need to remind you how we are working for a noble cause?"

James of Krondor

"Then we'll have to put you into a control group," Jamie said with a nod. "So you can lick a wall instead."

James was trying to see if any of these Jamies had done anything to his door, without being obvious. Like you do.

"I'm allergic to walls too." Cara was currently leaning against one.

Not going to happen. James crossed his arms and leaned against the wall in a non-licking manner.

"Are you allergic to bacon?"

Warren Worthington III

"Yes." At least when she'd cooked it. Of course most people tended to be allergic to charred lumps of former pig.

"C'mon Jimmy! It's time to start licking for science."

There was absolutely no doubt in Warren's mind that Professor Madrox was insane.

None.

But at least there weren't duplicates of himself running around and being crazy at people today.
