Friendship 101, Wednesday, Period 2

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."

* tune unknown. Feel free to make it up yourself!

Mercy waited till there was a relatively private moment to go over to him. "Um... are you going to have a problem with me in class?"

A lifetime of history with werewolves and there disdain for her coyote self had her wanting to get things out there right off the bat. And of course, had her making the assumption that he'd know what she was.

"No." He gave her a supremely unimpressed look. Which meant it was pretty much the same as his normal look. "Are you?"

She shrugged. "Depends on whether you have a burning desire to kill any coyotes who end up in your territory."

It had been a good two years now since the last attempt on her life and she was kind of hoping to keep that streak going.

"It's not my territory." A bloo bloo bloo, Derek. Poor lil' omega.

Mercy blinked at him. Back home if a werewolf lived/worked/hunted/breathed/(taught?) there, they considered it their territory - pack position notwithstanding.

(And an omega werewolf was undoubtedly something entirely different in her world.)

"It's... not?"
justlurkinghere: (seriously?)

"No." Be more loquacious, Derek!

"Do you not live here?" Mercy asked, looking confused. "I don't understand."
