Journalism Class - Monday December 5

Spider still has the Santa hat, although he looks a bit sullen about it. The cat is wearing what appear to be a completely genuine, if rather small, set of reindeer antlers.

"Today, kiddies, we're going to discuss our resident nano-cloud, as some of you have probably never seen him. I'm going to tell you about one of my Filthy Assistants - Channon Yarrow - and her ex-boyfiend and then I'd like each of you to write your impressions of the situation, the procedure, and how you feel about the entire business, all right?"

Jake walked in after Art, clutching a copy of Cosmo in one hand. He looked very pouty and sullen. His mood brightened a little at the story. "I want to meet her. Channon, I mean."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Spider spat an entire mouthful of coffee across his desk. "Channon? My Channon? I mean, that Channon? Here?"

[krycek-rat.livejournal.com]

Following Jake in, Krycek's copy of Cosmo was rolled up tightly and slightly dented. He made a face at the sudden mess of coffee, then eyed Spider thoughtfully. "Your Channon. That might be... Pretty educational."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

"That kind of education would get all of us arrested in several states," Spider told them, raising his hands as if praying for patience. "The level of violence alone...."

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander grinned - which he could afford to, since he was seated out of coffee-spraying range. "Yeah - at least sseeing her would give Krycek and Jake some hope that it's actually possible to work for you and survive. Besides, she doesn't look all that filthy to me; I think you're bogarting the babes, Spider."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

"Channon Yarrow," Spider told Xander, eyes glinting, "is less a babe than a bad-tempered force of nature. You should see her with hand-grenades." He paused and glanced over at Jake and Krycek. "I suppose now would be a bad time to mention that, rather than continue to work for me, she went and joined Fred Christ's church to become a whore-nun, right? Not that she didn't eventually wise up and come back, but..."

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander doesn't even blink. "So pretty much Cordelia Chase, with access to explosive devices. I find myself sadly unscared."

[courier-gavin.livejournal.com]

Jake regarded Spider with horror and shifted closer to Krycek.

[krycek-rat.livejournal.com]

Krycek mouthed the word 'whore-nun' as though the concept was vaguely unsettling. Then he shrugged at Spider. "If she has any advice on how to deal with you? I'm all for meeting her."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

"There are entire governments who walk in fear of my Filthy Assistants," Spider told him with no little pride. "But if you have a similiar creature in your own background, I don't think I need to tell you that."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Spider looked extremely unsettled. "Er, no. Definitely not. She has the Utopian flu. Can't be done. Ever."

Duce looks at the pictures and cringes. She writes a single word, outlines it, fills in the outlines, underlines it, and adds three exclamation points.

OWIE!!!

Krycek narrowed his eyes and 'hmmed'. "Didn't you have two assistants, sir? What happened to the other one?"

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander coughs. "I, uh. May have an unfortunate attraction to scary chicks who could break me with nine fingers tied behind their backs. Or, uh, pincers, in one case."

John's a little scared of the comic, honestly.

Professor Jerusalem likes to be naked. A lot. I wonder if I should try it out? Maybe I'd be more badass?

"Ylena?" Spider gave him a mildly startled look. "As far as I know, she and Channon are still stirring up trouble... and Ylena is by far the more dangerous of the two."

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

"Succinct and to the point," Spider admitted dryly. "Not quite what I was looking for, but clear enough."

It's like dying and ressurection. The obvious philosophical question: is the mind a true transfer, or is it a copy? And if it is a copy, is it still human?

"I think her boyfriend is, er, was a dick."

Jessica reviews the comics, says nothing, and writes her review.

Deciding that her eyes aren't what they used to be, Beka spends time squinting and reading. Eventually, she starts writing her thoughts down, concentrating on making it long enough.

Veronica agrees with Rogue and does not point out that Rogue's taking on her pseudo-boyfriend's mannerisms.
