Right. So. I've had a Brilliant Idea, which I think will be totally swerval if we don't all wind up in the Clinic or Rover.

Obviously, no one has any idea what's goin' on with the tentacle beastie and the gremlins, although we probably know a bit more about the latter than the former. And God only knows what squallin' thing'll be comin' at us next week. I propose we do something about it.

I'm thinkin' about suggesting an an independent study program to figure out the best ways to keep the squallin' things away from us, and at least in the case of the Common Room Gremlins, to figure out how t' treat their bites when the little grinders do get at us. I'm hopin' to get Miss Sidle to oversee it, or possibly Professor Hellboy. Not sure on that, yet, though with Miss Sidle we might get better access t' the labs. We could call it "A Case Study of Fandom High and Its Environs" or some fluff like that.

I'm thinkin' this'd be a group project, an' we could meet whenever we have free time and aren't partyin'. It'd combine field research around the school grounds (a live gremlin to torment study'd be wicked) with lab work on collected samples, and maybe discussion groups to synthesize our findings. Ideally, for the field research on the school grounds, we'd get some kind of voucher that would keep Rover from locking us in a closet, but who knows? Part of the project might be finding ways around him.

Or this might work best as a Science Club project, though I think I missed the sign-up for Science Club. Does anybody know where that is?

If anybody has any ideas or suggestions, put them here so I can include them in my proposal to Principal Connor. Same if you want to participate. Or tell me you think it's stupid an' dangerous an' I should scrap the whole idea. *shrug* I'm flexible.

I'm not sure what you mean by gremlins or, y'know, tentacly things, but if this'll help me avoid the things somehow or just get to the point where I could poke and prod them, 'cause gremlins are new, then I'm in.

[swerval_zero]

Welcome aboard!

Of course, our ultimate goal is to learn how to avoid 'em, but first we have to understand 'em. So hopefully, plenty of opportunities for pokin' an' proddin' will be provided.

[sensethevisions]

Zero, you know I'm in.

[swerval_zero]

I completely understand, and I jus' want you to know that we will get the little grinders, Phoebe.

I woke up with one of those little fuzzy things trying to worm it's way under the door today. Count me in.

[swerval_zero]

It didn' get at you, did it? Wait, what'm I sayin', you're fully clothed an' conscious. Obviously not.

[river-dancing.livejournal.com]

I'm definitely interested. I've always been good at puzzling out enigmas.

[swerval_zero]

Great! Welcome aboard.

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sounds interesting. I'm in!

[swerval_zero]

Fantastic. I'm Zero, I'm not sure if we've met.

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure exactly what these things are, as I seem to have missed the original incident, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

[swerval_zero]

You're so lucky. You're Rogue, right?

If you need a faculty advisor...I can grant you access to the lab equiptment in the clinic.

[swerval_zero]

Thanks, Dr. House. That's really swerval of you.

[allie-cameron.livejournal.com]

Allie reads the notice three times and wonders what exactly she missed during the first week of school.

"Um, I think I'd be interested," she says. "I'm planning to be a doctor and I've taken a lot of biology classes, so I could possibly dissect something."

She notices that Dr. House has offered to be the advisor and feels her cheeks get warm.

"And, um, since I'm working in the clinic, I know how to use the equipment."

[swerval_zero]

Oooh, gremlin dissection. That's definitely an activity I can get behind. *wicked grin* Welcome to the group.

[humanenigma.livejournal.com]

Hurm.

For the record, I have a number of Closets that I have my TAs working on, as well as myself. Very...deep closets, you see.

Perhaps they would be of use?

[swerval_zero]

For explorin', or for stashin' stuff in?

[janet_fraiser]

*grabs medical bag*

I'm in. I hate the squid. Or tentacle beast. Or whatever the hell it is.

[swerval_zero]

I knew I could count on you!

[nightsmoonchild.livejournal.com]

Since I live in the basement with the wee beasties, I'd like to join you.

[swerval_zero]

That's...yeah. Welcome to the group.

[mparkerceo.livejournal.com]

What the hell. I'm in if it doesn't conflict with anything else. :>

[swerval_zero]

I figure we'll just have sessions whenever someone gets inspired or whatnot, and whoever in the group wants to come along can.

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

Hey Zero,

After your horror story yesterday, I'd certainly like to do something to keep these things away from us!

[swerval_zero]

Great. The more, the merrier.

[joan-not-jane.livejournal.com]

Still looking for a gremlin? My friend just turned one into stone for, um, certain reasons that totally have nothing to do with a certain drunk student, and she gave it to me. But I don't want it. It's stone and everything, so I don't know if you have any use for it, but if you do.. *shrugs*

[swerval_zero]

To stone? *considers* Can she change it back?

If she can't, maybe I could use it as a paperweight or somethin'?
