How to Steal a Princess, Friday

At the front of the class today, there stood the teacher and a drum-set. Because when you thought about kidnapping princesses, didn't your mind also go to some bad ass drum solos? Well it should have.

"You can't just go into the stealing princesses business without being able to back it up," the Ice King said as though people were really that interested in kidnapping. Maybe they were, though. You don't know. Someone might think he was a cool, happening dude. "You gotta be able to woo her. And what's better than music to make the ladies swoon?"

There was no swooning. There had never been swooning. There never will be swooning.

"Today we're gonna have a hip jam session," he added. "Because playing an instrument says things. Things like 'I'm a cool guy. I don't always smell like moldy gym socks on a hot day. You wanna date me like nobody's business.'"

None of that worked. But on the plus side? Goofing off day!

"So get to work!"

Jam Session

There was an assortment of instruments to pick from. Electric guitars all the way to the lowly egg shaker.

Raven didn't play any instruments -- well, she could tap out a tune on a piano, but she was pretty sure that didn't count -- so she went for something nice and simple.

Ah, the triangle. Refuge for the non-musical since whenever the heck the triangle was invented.

"Echuta, you took the triangle," Cade grumbled. "I don't know how to play music."

Because he really was a guitar away from being a stereotype.

"Maybe there's a xylophone?" Raven suggested. "That's kind of like playing a bunch of triangles at once."

Cade looked around. "What's that one look like?" he asked. "I'm from a different galaxy. A good chunk of instruments are made for beings who don't breathe air or have six arms and stuff."

Raven looked around and spotted a colorful little toy xylophone in the corner. "That one, there. With the little metal bars and the wooden mallets."

"That's going to attract women," Cade said dubiously.

"We're doing a jam session hosted by the world's saddest evil king," Raven pointed out. "I don't think a brightly colored toy is going to affect your manliness at this point."

"You've got a point," Cade said. "Do you know 'Dance, Dance Little Ewok'?"

"Not even a little." She held up her triangle. "But I can probably fake it if you hum a few bars."

"It's a children's song," Cade said, humming it. "My dad used to sing it. Badly."

"Maybe he would have been better if he'd had a triangle," Cade agreed, banging experimentally on the xylophone.

Raven gave the triangle a solemn *ting!* "Could be. It is one of the classiest of instruments, matched only by the wood block or the cow bell."

Re: Jam Session

"We have a bantha bell," Cade offered. "It's like a cow but taller and hairier. The bantha. The bell, as far as I remember, isn't tall or hairy."

"Do you drink bantha milk, then? Eat bantha steaks?"

"Yeah, but nerf is better," Cade said.

Um, hello, jam session? Oh, Danny so totally had this one!

He found the banjo quickly enough, stretched out a little to make himself all limber, and then settled down on the floor to take off his shoes.

"Are you ready for this, Fandom?" he asked, though to no one in particular.

Then, he settled in to play some rocking jams on the banjo...with his toes (http://24.media.tumblr.com/511a6c24e9575b901d8cc8715fd68e3e/tumblr_mnwl61jb471rdutw3o1_400.gif).

That's right. Danny could play the banjo with his toes.

Swoon, ladies. Swoooon>

Mira picked up an egg shaker. If anyone tried to make her swoon, she could peg them between the eyes with one of these, no problem.

You'll have to talk loud because of the drums. Fair warning.
