Breaking Things 101, Wednesday, Period 3

The Danger Shop was a warehouse, with all manners of ~~moddable~~ breakable things lining the shelves about as far as the eye could see. And by the door, Electroclash, cradling a crystal vase in her hands.

"Welcome to Breaking Things 101," she announced, once the students had all shown up. Or she assumed they all had, anyway. She didn't care. "First things first, before we get to the necessary evil of introductions, I want the lot of you to go around –" She indicated to the warehouse at large. "– and find an object, any object. Then come back. Chop chop."

"Yeah, well. I needed an outlet," Sparkle replied, giving Zee a proper side-eye. "Not completely surprised to see you here, either, you know."

He'd been in a few classes with Zhari, so he knew the other two a Zhahar sisters weren't in hiding so much as they used to be. It was really just a matter of time before he was in one with the more smashy of the sisters.

"Well, after all the the academic classes and such on my schedule, I thought it would be a good idea to balance it out with something fun."

Not that Zeela was actually in view for those academic classes, but the principle remained.

"Find anything good, yet?"

"Bunch of crappy old records," Sparkle reported, holding up the box. "I'd be iffy about smashing 'em if they were anything good, but mostly it's the chicken dance."

Which... well. You only needed so much chicken dance.

"...Your chickens dance?"

WHY SO WEIRD, EARTH? WHY?

"... No. It's, like, a stupid dance that kids do in grade school," Sparkle replied, and then flapped his hands a little, imitating a pair of chicken beaks and humming the first few bars. "Totally deserves a good smashing, trust me."

"I dunno..." Zee drawled. "You might need to show me the whole thing. I'm kinda hard to convince, y'know."

Sparkle raised an eyebrow at her. Just. Raised it.

And then shrugged and put his box of records on the floor. Don't think he wasn't going to do something just because it was stupid, Zeela.

Yep. There he went. Beak motions. Arm flapping. Ass wagging. And clapping. And yeah, he was so humming the song as he went.

And there Zeela's eyebrows went. Shooting straight up to her hairline. "That's some song," she said, trying to act like this was something she saw every day.

"Isn't it, though? Da-da-da-daaaaa!"

Yes, Sparkle was just shameless enough to spread his arms and mime soaring majestically around Zeela for the refrain, too. Because.

"You're just jealous you don't get to hear it with all the accordions and shit."

"That's most definitely it," Zeela deadpanned. "Jealous. You found me out."

Of course, that had her looking around the warehouse again. "Do you think there's an accordion in here? You could play it and then we could smash it!"

Yeah, it wasn't really hard to guess why their teacher wanted them to find something breakable in a class called "Breaking Things."

"Yeah, because I so know how to play the accordion," Sparkle snorted. "Bet it would make one hell of a sound when you throw it against the floor, though."

He... kind of wanted to find one, now.

And this was how the train of thought leading to wanting to push a grand piano down the stairs got started. It all made sense now.

"You could break our eardrums trying to play it?"
