Rita sat behind her desk studying a book entitled 50 Signs of Mental Illness : A Guide to Understanding Mental Health.

Across the board in sparkling purple letters were instructions:

Work on the obituaries.

Do not attempt to be any nationality but your own.

If Nigel van Susteren shows up, he is advised to leave before he finds out what it's like to be a scarab beetle cockroach canary.

John flails about in the air. When he realizes he isn't falling, he does flips and somersaults and wonders if there is a meerkat Olympics.

Rita ignored him.

Since Rita has earlier reiterated that John is, in fact, a male, John does what males do.

He uses the bathroom while floating in mid air near Rita.

"Ew," Rory said helpfully.

She didn't take a picture for Aeryn.

Rita just looked disgusted, muttered a scouring spell, and returned John to her desk.

John skitters around on Rita's desk, messing up papers and making claw marks on good wood.

He might be plotting to jump on Rita's shoulder now...

Rita flicked her wand.

Oh, look. A boy where there was a meerkat!

Unfortunately, John had some momentum from his time as meerkat so he kind of falls off Rita's desk, clips her thigh and falls at her feet.

Ouch.

"Ow."

"You got steel in your legs?" John rubs his shoulder. "Another animal? Where's the originality?"

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

Rita glared. "I'll keept that in mind."

"Fine with me," John says, climbing to his feet. "No wonder your kids dislike you. You probably turn them into animals for kicks!"

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

Rita sighed.

"No one said the children dislike me."

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John sighed.

And decided to play the mimic game.

"No one said the children dislike me."

Chloe shook her head, muttering not nice things about John under her breath.

"Would you like detention?"

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory lived in fear of the answer to this question.

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John ponders this. Detention or backing down...

"Would you like detention?"

Bye bye Saturday.

Re: Work on the obits/pass notes/antagonize Rita

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"Detention it is," Rita smiled. "I hope you enjoy yourself."

"Yeah, yeah." John glares and grabs his books. "Tell your husband hi for me."
