Bel got to the classroom early and was waiting for his fellow students when they arrived. He handed back the quizzes as they came in with the following grades:

Lyta Alexander B
Marty Blank C-
J.C. Broots A-
Angela Chase B+
Cordelia Chase B
Walter Dornez A
Jake Gavin B+
Piper Halliwell B
Phoebe Halliwell C
Lana Lang A
Cindy MacKenzie B
Paige Matthews B
Mystique A
John Sheppard A
Stark A-
Jessica Tate A-
Jaye Tyler B
Rose Tyler B

When everyone had settled in, he said, "Dr. Grissom is still away, so today we'll be discussing the assignment I gave on Monday. Tell the class about a paranormal event that happened in your own world or at Fandom High, and how it was or could be explained away as something normal. Give me your written essay at the end of class."

Marty signs in, looking like death warmed over.

It doesn't keep him from shooting a dirty look at Bel before sitting down.

Discussion

How was something weird covered up?

Re: Discussion

"Where I come from they just kind of pretend it didn't happen. Which can get weird with so much strange stuff going on. It's like everyone refuses to mention the giant elephant in the living room in the hopes that if they ignore it it will just go away."

Instead of participating in class, Marty chose to just give evil looks at the TA.

"Sometimes cover isn't really necessary. Sometimes, you can just let the mind fill in the gaps, and it provides a better cover story than you could," Lyta said. "The mind can only handle so much reality before it starts...seeking out fanciful explanations."

Phoebe doesn't take part in the discussion. In fact, she never says a word.

Re: Discussion

"Weird things are easy to cover up. People don't want to believe in things that might threaten their everyday lives."

Lana turns in an essay about a kid who got turned into a giant human bug-thing due to bites from insects contaminated by meteor rocks and how he abducted her and wrapped her in a cocoon for some nefarious purpose (which she chooses not to mention). And how everyone in town just kind of pretended it hadn't happened.

OOC

Or bribes for the TA.
