Whatever 101, Tuesday, Period 3
The Danger Shop was a movie theater today. Sure, as a former employee, Kate could probably have pulled some strings and made a visit to MST3000 happen... but that was way more work than she'd felt up to. Plus she liked having more control of the sim. So, they were in a fake movie theater lobby.
"Today, we're going to the movies!" Kate announced. "It's a valuable life skill, because basically, sometimes you need to relax or you'll go crazy. And going to the movies is great for that because you get to sit on your butt for at least an hour and a half and just focus on what's in front of you." Maybe she wasn't great at picking things to teach, but she was damn excellent at spinning the things she picked as somehow being useful. "So, you're gonna buy tickets ––" She gestured towards the box office. "–– and some snacks ––" The concessions area. "–– and then you're gonna go in the theater, find yourself a good seat, and settle down to watch the movie. Sound simple enough? Get to it, and don't be afraid to ask for help if you get stuck on something. Like what snacks to bring."
She was ever so helpful.
