Detention - Saturday 3/4

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

Lorelai is a lot of things, but a technological whiz is not one of them, so when students enter the Danger Shop on Saturday, it looks like... the Danger Shop. There were entirely too many buttons for her to figure out how to change it.

The list of names is on the board:

Piper Halliwell
Lilly Kane
Draco Malfoy
Paige Matthews
Peter Parker

"Okay, gang, I don't know what you did to earn detention today, but I'm supposed to keep you busy all day. I planned, what I hope, are some fun activities that will also make you think about whatever it is that landed you here. You may talk quietly with each other while you complete these activites, as long as you are, indeed, working. If you're all behaved and you get everything done, you'll be dismissed at 5 pm EST FHT. If you're not behaved, well, from what I understand, I can keep you here all night."


[ocd up! I'll be on and off throughout the day. I moved last week and still have all some unpacking to do. I also have plans to go out to dinner with my roommate and a couple friends. I also have in game stuff to do with my other characters, so forgive any slow replies. Ping me on AIM (veronicamarsFH) if you need me!]

Sign In - Detention

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

First things first, sign in so Lorelai knows you're here.

Help yourself to coffee and donuts.

Don't mind the wistful looks Lorelai is giving you as she drinks her herbal tea and munches on fruit.

Activity #1

"As a thank you to Mr. MacGyver for letting us use the Danger Shop today, our first activity is going to be one that shows our appreciation. I bought a bunch of hammers and screwdrivers. Your job is to spruce them up so they're pretty. There are a bunch of scraps of fabric, ribbon, lace, and plenty of glitter. Go wild."

Activity #2

"Our next activity also involves appreciation, but it's music appreciation. The stuff you guys listen today is atrocious, so I'm going to educate you on one of the finer decades of music. The 80s."

Lorelai pulls out a collection of CDs and plays a variety of music from the 80s, including The Bangles, Culture Club, Heart, and The Violent Femmes.

"I'd like you to write a 100 word essay comparing and contrasting music of the 80s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980s_music_groups) and music of today. And if you're one of those weird space kids, or a time traveler, or something, then compare what you just heard with the music from wherever or whenever you're from. And if you're from the 80s, you don't have to do the essay, just come talk to me."

Lunch - 1pm FHT

At precisely one o'clock, a delivery boy shows up with a variety of take out containers from Luke's.

"Lunch break, guys," Lorelai says. "You can talk while you eat and if you want, I'll play you more 80s music."

Activity #3

"Okay, lunch is over. Back to work."

Lorelai stands in front of the room.

"As you've no doubt noticed, I am expecting a baby this July. We found out a few weeks ago that it's a boy. We have not decided on a name yet. My husband and I are giving the honor of naming the baby to my daughter, Rory, who some of you might know because she's a student here. In order to make this easier on her, I'd like you all to come up with a list of ten possible baby names that I can give her."

[ooc: In case you don't know GG canon, wackier is better with Lor. She named her dog Paul Anka. She named Luke's toolbox Bert. She named Rory "Lorelai" after herself because she was all doped up and couldn't think of anything else.]

Activity #4

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

"Last activity and then you guys will be free to do whatever it is you kids do on Saturday nights."

Lorelai wheels in a TV/DVD player.

"You're going to watch The Breakfast Club (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Breakfast_Club), which is a movie about a bunch of high school students with Saturday detention. After the movie, I want you to write a 100 essay reflecting on whatever it is you did to earn this detention and telling me why you're sorry you did it."

[ooc: yeah, I know none of you earned it, so have fun with this!]

In Detention Punishment

Just in case...

Dismissal - 5pm FHT

[msgilmoredanes.livejournal.com]

Assuming there hasn't been any trouble and all the activities have been completed...

Lorelai stands up at five. "Okay, gang, you're dismissed. Enjoy your spring break!"
