fandomhigh | Sentient Pets and You- Thursday- 4th period

Class was taking place in the Danger Shop today, and made up to look like a normal classroom. Sure, there were reasons for not just being in a normal classroom, but the truth was that Kitty had been dying to get her hands on this room for a year and a half.

So there were cookies set out, and a little purple dragon on her arm.

"Hey, everybody, welcome to Sentient Pets and You," she began, totally not nervous really. "For those you don't know me, I'm Kitty Pryde. You can call me whatever, I know that's not really important here or anything. So in this class we're going to be talking about having pets that might not be quite normal for this world, or, might be friends or significant others or whatever that you're taking care of for a week or so. Which is why I have this guy here. This is Lockheed. Say hello, Lockheed."

"Grawp!" Lockheed grawped, giving a very regal nod at the students before turning his attention toward the cookies.

"He meant hello," Kitty told the class, whether he did or not. "He's completely real, he's from outer space, and there used to be a little bit of an issue understanding what was going on with him, considering he was the only one like him around and you can't really go to a vet for things like this.

Lockheed was proud to be unique. So proud that he was going for a cookie right now. He lifted off from Kitty's arm and made a beeline for his cookie.

And right at that moment, a little purple blue guy- no, not a Smurf- grabbed it right before he got to it, and scurried off.

Lockheed sighed and gave Kitty the bitchiest purple space dragon bitchface possible. Really?

"Sorry, Lockheed. That's the way the cookie... runs away with a bamf," Kitty said, as the little blue mini-Kurts started popping up in other places, one for every one in the class. "These guys are bamfs. You're each going to have your own, and you're going to take care of them for class each week. So pick a bamf, and then I want you to go around the room to tell me your name, why you're taking this class, and what you named your bamf. Oh, and before I forget, Ryan's going to be your TA, but if you're also interested in a position, come see me after class."

Or stare at the dragon. Or bamfs.

Name, why you're here, and what you named your bamf!

Your bamf who probably likes to cause trouble, by the way, did Kitty not mention that?

"I'm Stiles, which you knew, and I'm here 'cause I watch over a dog that came from a magical ball--not dirty--and I've been around people turned animals before," Stiles said. "And I'm naming my bamf...General Nonsense."

Formerly Colonel Nonsense, obviously.

"He gets a title and everything?" Kitty asked, thinking that name was actually super fitting.

"Of course," Stiles said. "Most of my pets have had titles. I didn't get to name Puppy Joe, of course."

Well now she had to ask. "What title would Puppy Joe have gotten?"

"He'd probably be an admiral," Stiles said. "He seems like he belongs at sea."

And this was how Puppy Joe was going to end up with some sort of nautical hat now. No, seriously, it was happening.

"Makes total sense."

"I'm Korra, I'm here because my best friend is Naga, who's a polar bear dog." Yes Korra still counted Naga as her best friend. Shut up that wasn't sad. "And I'm calling my bamf..."

Korra eyed her bamf. She guessed it kind of looked like a blue fire ferret if you squinted and tilted your head. "...Pablue."

"A polar bear dog," Kitty repeated, just to make sure she'd heard that right. Because frankly it sounded awesome.

That's because it was awesome. "Yep, polar bear dog. I could bring her to class next week? She's pretty well trained."

"Sure. As long as she doesn't try to eat your bamf," Kitty said.

"Oh, she knows not to eat other pets. She's good with small children too."

"I'm Gertrude Yorkes but please call me Gert, I'm here because I have a psychic dinosaur, and I'm gonna name this guy Brewster."

It fit the theme, okay? Sort of.

"Psychic dinosaurs are a new one," Kitty admitted, though it was the psychic part that got her. "Good name."

"Thanks," Gert said, nodding. "And she's just psychic for me, mostly. Benefits of genetic engineering."

"I'm Ryan, and I'm here because I graduated but don't want to face the real world yet, so I signed on as a TA," she admitted. "And I think I'm going to name my bamf Charlie. He kind of looks like a Charlie to me."

"I'm Billy Kaplan, I'm here because a lot of my friends like to accidentally turn into animals, and I'm going to name my bamf... Teddy."

It was like a best friend tribute! That Teddy would most likely roll his eyes at, but hey, that's what he got for not being here.

Well, the dragon has to ping in first.

"Hey," Gert said, stopping by to talk to Kitty after the introductions were done. "You mentioned another TA gig?"

"Yeah," Kitty said with a smile. "You interested?"

"Yeah, and I figure I'm even qualified," Gert replied. "Plus capable of passing out papers without causing havoc, just saying."

"Oh, good. That's really the worst time for havoc to happen," Kitty joked. "If you're up for it, I'm glad to have you. Your psychic dinosaur-wrangling skills might come in handy."

"Yeah, sure," Gert said. "Not sure how applicable the skills will be to a dragon and everything, but I'll give it a shot. Thanks."

"No, thank you. And I'll make sure you have access to plans and everything, in case of crisis or surprise animaling." Kitty knew how these things went.

Thanks to

lilpurpledragon for the preplay!
