Jack of All Trades, Wednesday, Per 1
Rather than meeting in the Danger Shop today, Hardison met them at the front of the school next to a portal ready to whisk them away. "Sup," he said, blowing on his hands because even just a few minutes outside was enough to chill him. "Ready to go learn somethin' cool?" he asked. "One thing--where we're goin' is dangerous an' can be kinda expensive. Be careful an' respectful while we're there, especially when you're at the hands-on section of the class, a'ight?"
And with that, he gestured to the students to go through the portal.
The other side was the exact opposite of the cold they'd come from. Furnaces dotting the room put out enormous amounts of heat. There was a place for them to hang up their heavy outer gear and then they were being hustled into the center of the room, out of the way of anyone briskly walking about. "Welcome to a glass blowin' studio," he said as a man came over to greet them. "This is my boy, Mike, who's agreed to give y'all a demonstration of how to blow glass an' let us use his studio for a bit to mess around. Mike's a professional glass artist, been doin' this for years." And had taught Hardison to blow glass for a con, not that Mike had known that at the time.
...Or now, really.
Mike stepped forward and began to explain how to blow glass, complete with a demonstration.
"Y'all got that?" Hardison asked when he was done. "Awesome. Cause now it's your turn to make somethin'. Folks from Mike's studio are around to help an' offer advice, but y'all have free rein to look around an' experiment with a couple different items to create."
