Adventures Through History, Thursday, period 2
Students coming into the Danger Shop today would find it set up like a mad scientist's workshop, complete with buzzing tesla coils, a jacob's ladder, and strange looking amorphous bits floating in jars. Pinkie herself sat behind an old rolltop desk, wearing a giant white beard and poking her hoof at an extremely old telephone. A freestanding roll chart stood behind her.
"Welcome, everypony! Today's class will be an adventure indeed, filled with passion! Intrigue! Racing! And -- goats?!"
That last bit came out as a horrified squeal when the Danger Shop was suddenly invaded by a tribe of evil goats. They stormed through the door, knocking over equipment and floaty jar things with wild abandon, knocking poor Pinkie off her chair and gleefully eating her antique telephone and free standing roll chart.
It was all extremely terrible, especially considering how the roll chart had been full of fun facts about Alexander Graham Bell, like the fact that he came from a family of elocutionists and had become fascinated with sound transmission and communication in part thanks to his deaf mother and wife. Or the fact that he narrowly beat out Elisha Gray for the patent for the telephone, some said by nefarious means. Or how he went on to work on many other projects, making contributions in the fields of magnetism, aeronautics, and medicine (though some of his contributions to the later weren't all sunshine and rainbows!). It was, in fact, a well thought out and put together presentation full of detail (gleaned from Wikipedia) and not too many assumptions, beyond the mad scientist setting, but no one would ever see it, because of the evil, evil goats.
It was punching time.
[ooc: Yeah, I totally couldn't resist. Goats are moddable, and OCD is up!]
