Friendship 101, Wednesday, Period 2

[locointhecoco]

Pinkie had the Danger Shop programmed to resemble a bucolic field, almost cartoon-like in its bright cheerfulness, full of lush green grass and tiny pink and purple flowers.

At one end of the field was a copse of trees, behind which lurked a slightly dilapidated creepy shack.

Pinkie was willing to make some concessions to Derek's personal style. Because Pinkie was nice like that. Unlike the other teacher there.

The moment class was scheduled to begin, the Danger Shop doors slid shut (hope no one was late on their first day), and a breeze kicked up, making the tiny flowers sway and dance. A vibrant pink, purple, and yellow hot air balloon drifted over the gathered students and slowly, as if by magic, came to a gentle landing on a clear patch of grass. Pinkie leaned over the side of the basket, madly waving her hooves. Derek glowered. As was his wont. Pinkie leaped from the basket, struck a pose, and without further ado, began to sing:

"You are all our students, YAY!
You make us shout hip hip hooRAY!
So we will start our class today,
with a happy, happy song!*
TAKE IT, DEREK!"

Pinkie jumped to the side, tossing a top hat and black cane at Derek. Both of which were watched as they fell to the floor after hitting him. Because Derek was not meant for musical theater, kids. Terribly sorry about that.

"Hi." That was downright cheerful for him!

Pinkie blinked. Then started applauding. "Let's hear it for Derek Hale, fillies and gentlecolts!" When the applause died down -- or, well, hers did, anyway -- Pinkie threw her hooves in the air again and beamed at the students. "And I'm Pinkie Pie! And this. . . ." Was that an actual drum roll? ". . . is FRIENDSHIP 101!"

Derek rubbed his forehead for a moment, as though to clear his thoughts of all the insanity that went hand in hand with Pinkie. "If you're in the wrong class, leave now." Like he wished he could... "If not, introduce yourselves."

He was going about this all wrong. Pinkie should have made him rehearse.

"You could tell us your name!" she said. "Ooo! And your favorite color. And OH OH OH! Tell us about your bestest friend in the WHOOOOOLE wide multiverse! That'll be fun, right, Derek?"

"Sure." Loads of fun for all!

"Ooo, and we could use some TAs." Pinkie nodded seriously. "TAing for Friendship is very important work."

Jackson Whittemore

Listen to the song

[locointhecoco]

For it was jaunty and adorable.

Re: Listen to the song

[nomoresportscars]

Jackson looked openly horrified.

Why was he in this class? This was absolutely the last class he wanted to be in.

The administration clearly had it in for him.

Rilla wondered why Miss Pie's friend was so unhappy. Poor man! Did he not know he was teaching with a pink pony?

Re: Listen to the song

[notconflicted]

Sia listened to the song.

And decided whoever signed her up for this class against her will was going to pay for it. Yes, they would regret this.

Re: Listen to the song

[nottrivial]

Alec was beginning to consider the possibility that he might die in this room, and it had nothing at all to do with the way his Sensor was buzzing at him to alert him to the presence of a werewolf. That song was horrifying.

"Ohhhhhhh god no." It was stupid to slouch down to hide from Derek since Stiles had this class all semester but he was doing it anyway. He couldn't control what his body did at the best of times. Hide him, magical field of wonderment!

Song, what song? Stiles was too busy freaking out.

Re: Listen to the song

[hasadestiny]

Lex wondered what he was doing here...again.

Re: Listen to the song

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

Emily hated the song.

She had the feeling this would not be the last time hate would be the general reaction to this class.

She did manage to pretend she was at least mildly pleased. The grumpy guy made it worth, yep.

Re: Listen to the song

[wasthecuteone]

Oh, yes. This was exactly as awesome as Petra had hoped it would be when she signed up for it.

Next week she was bringing popcorn.

Re: Listen to the song

[walkswithcoyote]

Mercy smelled him as soon as she walked in the room and it was all she could do not to just bang her head on the desk. Seriously?? Two werewolves? In the same day, teaching back to back classes? She had to be cursed.

Cursed, I tell you.

Re: Listen to the song

For Bucky, the song did not exist. At least, he was going to act like it didn't. See this? This was him bathing himself. That was how little the song meant to him.

Introduce yourselves

[locointhecoco]

Name, favorite color, best friend!

Re: Introduce yourselves

[nomoresportscars]

"Jackson Whittemore. Red. Danny Mahealani."

Yeah, like you were going to get any details out of him when he just wanted to get this over with so he could go back to his room and maybe beat his head against a wall for a while or something.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[notconflicted]

"Marasiah Fel, red, and I don't think I have one."

And then she braced herself for whatever reaction that got.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[nottrivial]

"Alec Lightwood, blue, Jace Wayland."

And that was that.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[robinonadderall]

"Stiles Stilinski. Red. Scott McCall."

And now he would go back to not looking anybody in the eye and pretending he wasn't there.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[reven8e.livejournal.com]

"Emily Thorne. Black? And, uh..."

Crap, she didn't know how to fake the last one.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[hasadestiny]

"Lex Luthor, purple."

What was that? A noticeable silence on the third question?

Re: Introduce yourselves

[twintuitionist.livejournal.com]

"Hi, I'm Juliet Darling, my favorite color is green, and my best friend is my twin brother Jeremy!"

Juliet was beaming as she answered. Pinkie Pie classes always put her in a good mood. As for the creepy guy she was with ... ugh, at least he was pretty.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[wasthecuteone]

"Hi, I'm Petra West, and my favorite color is purple. Or maybe gold...anyway, I have a lot of great friends but my best friend is Tiara Swan."

Yes. That was her real name.

Re: Introduce yourselves

[rilla-myrilla.livejournal.com]

"I'm Rilla Blythe, I like blue, and my best friend is Una Meredith," she replied. "Or Annie Edison."

Talk to the Teachers

Re: Talk to the Teachers

Pinkie was not likely to stop bouncing during the entire class period.
