Advanced Criminal Justice, Class 13, Period 1, 02.21.06

[OOC: I didn't get started on this until it was late and I was too tired to do a full Police Squad thing. Therefore, we take a break from that and go with something I threw together at the last minute. And for something thrown together at the last minute, it's kinda heady. I'm special that way. Class Info Post.]

The Tick stood at the podium with a thoughtful look on his face as the class walked in. Lockheed sat on his shelf with a tired look on his face. There was also snoring coming from the wee dragon.

"Hello, class! A couple points to start the week before we begin our discussion today. First, Rory should have all of your essays by now. Hopefully she grades faster than me. *ahem* Second, has anyone seen Jack O'Neill around? He's barely been to class this month. Third, Logan if I could speak to you after class for a moment, that would be keen."

"Okay. We will be taking a short break from the case files of Sgt. Drebin in the name of discussing an important question. This question will be on your final in several weeks, but I thought it would be good to get your opinions on it now and see how it compares to the end of the semester."

"All of us have seen a lot of weird things in Fandom. Zombies attacked, we warded them off but it seems that most of us never really knew what caused it. Evil snowmen attack as part of a revenge game against me, according to the radio - and I apologize for that, by the way - and we drive them away as a massive force. A vampire attacks several people, leading to a group of student vigilantes - which I am just referring to as an example, so please don't think I'm saying anything bad - banding together to fight the forces of evil. That same vampire disappears for some time, comes back claiming to be different, and she is immediately taken in and held in prison. Our mayor leaves, opening the town up for people to do wrong. Suddenly a strong leader takes office without bothering with an election. Before our new mayor became mayor, she was controlled by something that made her attempt to slaughter everyone in Fandom with ducks, but after I fought with him-slash-her, she returned to normal and all duck attacks were forgotten."

"Each of these points could be taken to be an example of the struggle between Good versus Evil, Right versus Wrong. Any of these points, and more that I didn't list, could be interpreted in terms of Justice as well. My question to you is simple, but the answers will probably be complex: What do you think of how Justice works in Fandom? Does it work well? Does it work at all? Do we even have it? Do we have so much of it that the Justice family forms a long line at the Lunch Buffet of Right? Feel free to use the gven examples or others if you would like."

"This week's metaphor is fish. And for extra credit, please develop a word for that Justicey feeling you get inside your heart when you see Justice done. No, you cannot use 'Justicey.'"

"Justice in Fandom is...interesting." Callisto was not trying to be invisible, really. Nor was she trying to hide at the back of the class.

Nor was every inch of exposed skin covered in the most florid, lurid purple prose imaginable. Nor did said prose describe a number of things unsuitable for a classroom environment.

Okay, so the last two were just wishful thinking on her part.

Callisto sunk lower in her chair. "You're welcome Professor Tick, sir."

Marty stared at Callisto for a few minutes before realizing that it was probably better for his health that he look elsewhere... anywhere but at her.

Callisto started headdesking.

Marty heard a pounding noise coming from Callisto's direction, but since he refused to look at her he couldn't be sure.

Jaye spends a while trying to read what's written on Callisto, finally saying, "You totally had a more interesting night than me."

Callisto suddenly felt extraordinarily glad that Jaye probably wasn't going to do radio two nights in a row.

That didn't stop her headdesking though.

Of course, Jaye does have radio tomorrow night, too. She might have to check in on Callisto and see if the writing's worn off by then.

Cameron tilts his head and stares at Callisto, trying to read whatever the hell she's got written down on her.

Callisto paused in her headdesking. "Looking for ideas, Cameron?"

"What?" Cameron blinked and realised he had been staring. "I err... Yeah, exactly that."

Cameron squints. "Dude, who wrote that?"

Janet didn't bother to suppress her grin. Mostly because she couldn't, so instead she was trying to cover her mouth with her hand.

It probably didn't work so well, though.

Callisto might have been writing a list.

She might have added Janet's name to said list.

If Janet had known about the list, she probably would have asked if her name had been added in purple, magical ink.

It's probably a good thing Janet has no idea about the list.

Rory stared at her.

"...that's an interesting look for you, Cal."

Thud.

Thud.

Vala, who was also hanging out in the back of the room trying to be less noticable, made no attempt to hide the staring. She did, however, try to stifle the increasing levels of snickering as she turned her head back and forth trying to read it all.

"How are you doing?" asked Janet quietly. "With the whole--" She paused and smiled self-consciously. "I wanted to make sure you were doing okay."

Vala can't help but look up at Cam across the room, before scowling at herself and returning to actively not-looking.

"I'm fine," she says, sounding tired. "I went home for the weekend. Got away a little. Kept myself busy." She shrugs.

"Good. I'm glad to hear it," said Janet. She was pretty sure that Vala wasn't actually fine, but she never pushed these sorts of things. "If you need someone to talk to, I'm around. Or if you just want to hang out some time."

Parker waves to Vala, and hopes she got her phone message before she took off for the weekend.

Vala gives her a non-committal nod.
