Shop Class

[manofthemullet.livejournal.com]

As the students enter the room they'll see a table that has an array of various materials that no normal teacher would ever provide a student could possibly create an explosion.

"Hopefully you got my e-mail last week to bring in something that you don't mind getting destroyed," Mac says with a small grin. "Because today we are going to blow it up."

Assignment: [2/22]

[OOC:If your character would have no idea how to make something explode *handwave* Mac's assistance]

Nadia brought in an already rather destructified looking radio. She didn't own a whole lot, and the broken radio was the only thing she could find that she'd have no trouble parting with.

Of course, most of her experience with explosives involved cherry bombs and bottle rockets, so it took her some time to find a *completely handwaved, because I'm not looking up explosives from my work computer, dammit* good combination of materials, but she soon had everything set up and ready for pyrotechnics.

She was looking perhaps just a bit too gleeful at the idea of blowing things up.

Mac summoned up a blast protection barrier for everyone to stand behind using the hand console.

"Light it up when you are ready, Nadia."

Since all the flights out of town had been booked and the SGC was having some kind of plant investation, Sam slipped into class just before it started, leather bomber jacket (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhighdorms/476383.html?thread=22404063#t22404063) and large cup of coffee in hand.

It had been three days, but she still couldn't think of a good alien virus excuse for what had happened at the dance. (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/653795.html?thread=30828259#t30828259) So, awkward. (http://carter-i-am.livejournal.com/31115.html) Yes.

Mac looked up briefly when Sam came in and his eyes went immediately back to the gradebook. Yes. The gradebook. Must mark down the students grades. Grades are good.

John comes into the Danger Shop carrying a book on Maine. And no, he's not up to explaining that but it's either blow the thing up or let it taunt him from the bookshelf.

So, he rigs the book up with some explosives, including a small firework, some gas, some sulfur, and potpourri. The potpourri's just an experiment to see if he can make the explosion smell good.

So, now he's ready.

Re: Assignment: [2/22]

"Blowing up the state of Maine? With... Is that potpourri?"

Lilly's got a handful of koosh balls.

Don't ask.

She looks at the materials, and figures she'll need a very hot explosion in a contained area to actually explode the koosh balls, and not just turn them into flaming projectiles or melt them.

So she works for a while, a little haphazardly, on a small container in which to have her explosion take place. It's not very well put together, but she then wraps it in duct tape, so it should hold, right?

Then she realizes she probably needs a timing device, because she doesn't want to walk around all ugly and burnt up until her body spontaneously regenerates. Because that still freaks her out, quite frankly.

After locating some wire and an egg timer, she looks at her hands and gives up, figuring a long wick would be good enough.

She then loads a bunch of fun explosivey things into the box and stands back, wondering if this is such a good idea after all.

"Light it up whenever you're ready Lilly," Mac said motioning her behind the blast barrier.

Ivanova makes something that will make a satisfying boom because she would and her mun definitely doesn't, complete with remote firing device. Otherwise known as a long piece of string. Satisfied with her device, she produces a pair of black gloves from her back pocket. No, they aren't Lyta's. They just look like Lyta's. Honest.

Re: Assignment: [2/22]

"Feel free to blow it up when you're ready Ivanova."

Xander has an idea how to make something explode. He also has a box.

With the proper materials on hand, he doesn't have to resort to guessing at chemicals, and goes straight for the carefully numbered shotgun shells, signing out two and emptying the powder onto the sticky side of a piece of masking tape for a fuse.

Kerosene lantern fuel. Ammonium nitrate fertilizer. Gloves, because he's not getting that shit stuff shit on his fingers when he mixes them and pours the result back into the shells to make blasting caps.

Fuses attached, he finally opens the box and removes the contents:



The paper cheerleading uniform is a Sunnydale High one, since he doesn't know whose Jake actually stole. The accuracy of the detail on it is probably a little worrisome.

Re: Assignment: [2/22]

[manofthemullet.livejournal.com]

Mac cocks an eyebrow at the... thing Xander has brought in and decides to let it go.

"All right Harris, let's bake a cake light it up when you are ready."

Izzie looks at her recently defunct toaster. She has no idea how she'll make it blow up, so she raises her hand to get Mac's attention.

Re: Assignment: [2/22]

[manofthemullet.livejournal.com]

Mac comes over. "Let me show you a trick on how to do this Izzie..."

Mac the goes through the process of how to create a small explosive device using fertilizer, a tube, some newspaper, cotton balls and engine starter fluid.

"Try that."

Kawalsky contemplated C4 and TNT. Then he checked his watch and realized he wouldn't have the time. He decided to go with a nice, small homemade grenade instead.

He grabbed a tennis ball and cut a hole in the top of it. He then stuffed it full of match heads and a few magnesium strips and filled up the rest with flammable powder. He replaced the cut-out section of the ball and secured it with duct tape, leaving only a hole for the fuse, which he stuffed in so that only a section was hanging out. Kawalsky taped it into place.

Making sure he was far enough out of the way, he went and put a stuffed toy snake behind a barrier some distance away.

He lit the fuse, positioned himself, timed it and then lobbed the grenade over to the snake. A few seconds later, it exploded.

Blowing things up is fun and Stark is looking particularly gleeful at the prospect of getting to make things explode this morning. He might even have bounced a little at the thought. He'd brought a very fluffy down pillow with him, just because he thought watching the feathers fly everywhere would be amusing.

Grinning widely, he sets to work mixing up a handwavey explosive that he's fairly sure is only going to explode a little bit, without blowing anyone up or just setting the pillow on fire. He may have been muttering "little explosion, just a little one. Can't blow anyone up. Bad idea, blowing people up." under his breath.

Satisfied that he probably won't blow up anyone else in the room, he attaches a fuse and gets ready to explode something. Gleefully.

Duo, the explosives expert of the 5 Gundam pilots, is pretty much bouncing with excitment when he comes into class with a whole bunch of old machine parts to blow up.

He sets up a number of different types of explosives and, when he gets the okay to fire, sets them off with a maniacal grin.

"Shop class rules."

Er, that should read "inFestation". Because otherwise it just looks like the SGC did some landscaping.

He so does. Although blowing up Maine rocks too. As well as Jack's jacket.

Mac had HAL return the shop class back to normal and sat behind his desk, waiting for the rest of the students to leave the office.

Sam stood in front of Mac's desk, vaguely at attention. "You wanted to see me, sir?"
