Creature Languages, Period 3, 2/23

The students are greeted as they enter not by Professor Dream*, but by a small pink kitten sitting on the desk next to the sign-in sheet. Well, they will be once someone looks directly at her. Until then, the small pink kitten? Adorable, but invisible.

A stack of Cat vocabulary sheets are sitting next to the adorable pink kitten. The following is written on the board behind her:

We will be having a very special class on Cat today. Please greet your guest speaker, me, Zero Hopeless-Savage.

1. Conversation. Talk with Kitty Zero on any subject. Your end of the conversation should ideally be in Cat, however, if your limited vocabulary or the limits of the human body prevent this, feel free to use English. Kitten Zero understands it. Since Cat is such a body language-intensive language, if your statement requires actions thought vulgar by humans, please use English. Then repeat back to Kitten Zero what you think she said, in English. She will tell you if you're correct or not.

If all else fails, one mew for yes, two for no.

2. Comprehension. Kitten Zero will recite a short passage. Record what you think she said.

3. Discussion. Ask Human Zero about facets of the Cat language or Cat culture you would like to know more about. Please remember that her experience is limited.


*Unless Professor Dream is present.

((OCD threads are up! Go for it! But please remember that due to a class this afternoon, I may be doing the dance of slowplay.))

Blair smiled.

Good! I'm glad it's been good for you. Good days are good.

Pass note. Headdesk. It's becoming sort of a pattern.

Molly gave him a small look of concern over the headdesking. But, he didn't seem to be doing himself any permanent damage so she didn't mention it otherwise.

Good days are good. How has yours been so far?

Blair smiled and hoped that Molly wasn't thinking he was insane.

It's been good great! I did a lot of shopping in town for my friend Ivanova who's leaving today.

This note got Blair another look of concern.

I hope she's not leaving for good. I don't know her, but people need to stop leaving in the middle of the school year.

Blair smiled and nodded.

No kidding! She's hopefully only going to be gone for a while, but she's in the military or something so it's not up to her.


[do you want me to open a thread in the library for sixth period?]

Molly frowned more.

Just like Aeryn. I hope Ivonova gets to come back. She's in my Western Civ class, but I haven't talked to her a whole lot.

[Sure. Thanks.]

Blair grinned and scribbled.


You should call her Stella. Actually it's more like STELLLLAAAAA! It's my nickname for her.

Molly giggled quietly and grinned back at him.

If When she comes back, I will definitely do that.

[Off to the library we go!]
