Creative Problem Solving, Tuesday, period 3

[vdistinctive]

Class today met in a completely padded room. Not, like, a mental ward padded room, just a big gymnasium type room with mats glued to the walls and floors (and ceiling). Scattered all over were pillows of varying sizes, from little goofy throw pillows to giant feather mattresses. They came in all sorts of shapes as well as sizes, from simple squares to fluffy hippos.

Eliot stood in the midst of the whole thing with a bear shaped pillow in a casual choke hold. "I, uh. Wanted to apologize for not bein' in class, last week," he said. "And -- bein' kind of an ass before that."

Parker was standing next to him, hugging one of those purple hippos pillows. “And he means it.” She gave a vehement nod. “Anyway. He’s still getting better, and so are some of you, and we didn’t really have a lot of time to come up with a class. So, pillows!”

"Beat 'em up," Eliot said. "Scream into 'em. Take a nap. We can program some with Gaunt's face on them if you wanted to punch him in the face and didn't get the chance." Eliot may have done some of that before class, yes. Only it wasn't a pillow with his face on it. "Have a damn pillow fight, go nuts."

Parker’s eyes lit up. “Pillow fort!!.. oh, and today is Taco Tuesday. I guess.”

Pillows!

Build a fort with Parker, take a nap, have a fight, get out your annoyance with Leland Gaunt.

Kaylin was more than happy to explore the building of this pillow fort thing and thought she'd have to teach it to the children at the Foundling Hall. After that she'd be happy to sleep.

Another nap sounded lovely, but Kathy was getting tired of sleeping all the time. So she shoved a bunch of pillows out of the way and started doing yoga instead. Relaxing, which was good, but also strengthening, which was better. You'd be amazing how much muscle mass and tone you could lose over a week of not eating, especially when your metabolism was ramped up to account for your super-speed and agility.
