fandomhigh | History of Art | January 24th

As the students file in they are given a handout and directed to their seats.

"Ancient Greek art focused mainly on the gods and heroes like Hercules, however those statues don't look anything like the guy. Trust me, Hercules didn't run around Greece wearing nothing but a lion skin, leaving his little Herc flapping in the breeze. He wore sensible tunics and leather trousers.

"Now the gods on the other hand, don't believe in practicality. Of course I suppose when you're a god you don't have to worry about practicality, but really, they could have some self respect. Discord in particular looks like a crazy hooker, and not like the kind they have down in the Sin. And let me tell you something else, a giant chicken in fetish gear is not a sight you ever want to see…"

Autolycus didn't ever get back to talking about Ancient Greek art, or assigning homework. But the class did learn more about the fashion choices of the Greek Gods then they ever wanted to know.

Talk about the lesson, or anything else that comes to mind.

"Oh so that's what they sell at the 4th Sin." Xander blinked. "Wait, the girl there said she slept with -- " Something between a snicker and a choke. A snoke. "Angelus had to pay for it?"

You may possibly be able to interrupt the laughter before the hour is over. Possibly. It might take a water balloon, free pie, or a ~~naked~~ Mountie, though.

"Was it the one who looks like me?" Rory asked, throwing a Hershey's Kiss at Xander.

Xander caught the kiss - not that he had superhuman reflexes or anything, but duh, chocolate - without letting up on the chortling. He took a deep breath before answering. "Hic-heh. Yeah, like you only ~~dirtier~~ grayer."

Angela spends most of class doodling a giant chicken in fetish gear.

Xander, looking over her shoulder and still laughing, notes with some consternation -- though not enough to make him stop laughing -- that he's pretty sure he's seen something that looks a lot like that in one of his weirder penguins-in-the-bus-station dreams.

Angela senses Xander's eyes. Embarassed, she covers the drawing and turns to a fresh page.

Which she covers with eleaborate doodled band logos.

Barbossa heard about crazy hookers at the Sin and spent the rest of the class being decidedly sulky.

You know, for a pirate.

Isabel spent most of the class trying to write her rebellion song for Speech. For some reason she keeps trying to work the word chicken into it.

Giant chicken in....

~~Her microbes must have translated that wrong~~

Vala hoped that that didn't actually mean what it sounded like. She hoped this very, very, very hard....

"Apollo is often pictured with the lyre or the bow and arrow. His iconography is so confusing!" Lee says.

Bridge is, like Angela, doodling a giant chicken. However, the fetish gear is mysteriously absent, and the giant chicken is apparently battling a giant robot in the middle of a city.

Every once and a while, he pauses in the doodling to write down something on another piece of paper. It might be notes about the god's fashion choices. It might be the schematics of a Blackberry.

Half-listening to Auto, Krycek still thought this class was better than last term. He was, however, thinking about wearing his fez in next class, just for old times' sake.

Chiana pretty much spends the entire classtime trying to erase the image of a giant chicken in fetish gear from her mind. There are somethings that even she can't handle.

Atleast it wasn't a muppet chicken. Not that she'd ever seen a muppet in fetish gear. ~~Technically.~~
