Sociology of Violence

"Hello, class. Welcome, and please turn in your essays from last class on your reactions to playing the games provided to you."

Grissom then lectures briefly on The St. Valentine Day's Massacre and then dismisses class.

"On your way out, please take this reading, Chapter Nine of Flash Point: The American Mass Murderer by Michael D. Kelleher, and complete it by Wednesday."

What, it's perfectly appropriate in the spirit of the holiday!

Sociology of the Paranormal

After greeting the class, Grissom gives a lecture and smiles, sitting half on his desk.

"So, easy discussion today. Do you believe in miracles?"

"Also, easy homework. I want you to do your own research into the phenomena, and see if anything changes your mind."

Krycek stopped by, looking a little bemused - both at the reason he was there and the barking puppy. "Sir? I was absent from the last class because the mun was off her head and completely managed to miss it somehow, but is there something I could do to make up the credit?"

Grissom looks a little too flustered to work up any concern over a student missing a class and I barely get the classes up lately with my RL workload, so whatever.

"Umm, make-up work. Sure. Okay."

He's the helpful sort, that Grissom is. Meanwhile, the puppy bounds over to Krycek and gives him a really cute look.

Krycek eyed the puppy and crouched down to scritch him a bit, glancing up at Grissom. "Something wrong, sir?"

"No, no. I just don't remember dogs being quite this..." he waves a hand at the dog, who is enthusiastically responding to Krycek. "Exciteable. I had a dog when I was a kid, and it was, calmer, I guess.

So, yes, why don't you handwave make up the lab time playing video games, and we'll considered the absence excused."

Krycek smirked, though somewhat sympathetically, and continued playing with the puppy as he responded. "You were probably a bit more proportionately exciteable. You're perspective's changed as well. Or--" He tsked and pulled fingers from the puppy's mouth as he was enthusiastically used as a chew toy. "You had an older dog, which would probably be less energetic than a puppy."

Krycek stopped and made a face, wondering why he suddenly felt the need to be all explainy for no good reason. "Thanks, sir. I appreciate the reprieve."

Grissom refrains from rolling his eyes at the notion that he was an excitable kid, but he does smirk a little.

"You've done good work in this class so far. And considering the environment in Fandom, I allow for a few absences," Grissom says with a knowing look. "I appreciate you coming by to clear it up though. The lab is open all day during school hours, so try to sneak in there during a free period before Wednesday. The equipment is still accessible. Any other issues?"

"Thank you, sir. I think that's it," he replied, giving the puppy a last scritch. "Cute dog." Krycek nodded to Grissom and then took his leave.
