The Art(s) of War and Peace; Wednesday, Second Period [ 12/14 ].
When the students arrived, they would find that their instructors had once again provided moddable treats from JGoB and the Perk, all of which were piled on tables against the back wall of the classroom. And, it being the last day of class, at least one of their teachers might have a little something extra for anyone who was either clever or silly enough to ask him for it.
"Welcome back," Ghanima said brightly. "You've managed to make it all the way to the last class, and hopefully you even picked up a thing or two along the way. We've made it almost all the way through Tzu's Art of War, minus one or two pi'en due to Fandom, so today you'll get a bit of a break on the note-taking aspect of class."
"And we'll get a more...hands-on approach before delving into going over what we've learned and experienced thus far ♥," said Shunsui, with a timely waggle of his fingers from his reclined position behind the desk. It might have been then that the students would notice the faint mewling sound emerging from somewhere in that general area and Shunsui, unable to keep his giggles down, decided his was going to be rubbish at holding back the fun. "Ducklings ♥," he said, standing up, "prepare to meet your armies ♥."
From behind the desk, over the desk, from out of Shunsui's robe and somehow one of them even managed to get on top of his head, was a swarm of fluffy, adorable kittens. Some of them even had little helmets on them, and they meowed happily, excitedly, as they began prancing forward, on the large desk at the front of the room, over to the smaller desks for the students. Some of them were trotting on over to the snacks table to see what might be yummy in their tummy, and others were already starting to rumble and tumble with each other without the direction of their assumed warlords.
"Kitties ♥!" said Shunsui, clearly melting into a tall, hairy puddle of kitten-loving goo.
Kitties they had collected from shelters on the mainland, who would be going back to Dune with Ghanima to terrorize the palace staff. Desert mice always infested town and seitch alike. "Hold off on organizing your soldiers for a moment," she said, picking one up off its attempt to chew on her boots. "These are your troops. Love or war, how do you motivate them? If you don't understand the heart of something, you'll never achieve your objective."
"So now I am going to ask you to indulge my curiosity one last time. Afterwards, I'd like each of you to tell me what you learned this semester. It can be something about class, something about yourself, something about your own ethical outlook, it doesn't matter, so long as you have learned something. In return, feel free to ask us any question you like. We will do our level best to answer you honestly."
[OOC: Last verse, same as the first, but a whole lot louder and whole lot worse.Please to be waiting for the OCD be up.]

Listen to the Lecture - War & Peace [ 12/14 ].
Class Activity: Kitten War! - War & Peace [ 12/14 ].
Ahem...
Naturally, these kittens are incredibly adorable, bountiful, and utterly moddable, as well.

So, she herded them all where she wanted them to go, then retreated to a corner so as not to keep terrorizing them or upset the other students' cats.
Re: Class Activity: Kitten War! - War & Peace [ 12/14 ].
She carefully nudged the kitten making a valiant but doomed attack on her feet to one side, trying to direct it towards any of her classmates who looked happy about the kittens.

Then again, cats also seemed to see her for who she was. At least the one at the old man's deathbed had. That probably made them much more inclined to listen, and don't think she wasn't a bit concerned about whether or not they could still tell who she was now.
Re: Class Activity: Kitten War! - War & Peace [ 12/14 ].
Cassidy was thrilled that everyone was back where they belonged -- and that she was back, too.
She wasn't doing very well with the herding of kittens to do anything as an army. That was probably because she was sitting on the floor with them and letting them crawl all over her. And even though she would have loved to keep one, they didn't belong to her.
Yes, she did keep pulling them from her bag that they kept climbing into.

Of course the fuzzballs paid attention to that, right?

Please ignore the fuzzy thing attacking his bootlaces.

"Awwww ♥," he said, adoringly, "my kittens are so shy ♥!"
Pity that probably no one could appreciate this subtle little name-dropping of his autobiography for what it was.
