Life Soundtrack, Period 3 - Thursday
Hey, there was music playing for class when they showed up again. Because why ruin a good thing?
"This past weekend, trauma, blah blah blah, we're all very sad about things. But the important question really is: who the hell actually goes to their high school reunions?" A beat. "Me. I would go just to win that motherfucker with my smoking hot, amazing girlfriend and these only slightly horrific superpowers. If I'd actually graduated. Awkward coming from the teacher. Anywhoooo. Today is all about music for fight scenes."
If the DMX wasn't enough of a hint.
"We already bought the rights for this song for the soundtrack so." He gave the class a thumbs up. "You could pick something edgy and so early two thousand with techno, or maybe you're more into some dissonance with a cheerful song. Oh, oh! Or maybe you want to be edgy and pick something classical and sad all John Woo style with doves constantly flying through the scene. Seriously, who thought doves were a good choice? They're just prettier pigeons. Which, in turn, makes them the kind of rats with wings that would be in a beauty pageant."
That took a strange turn.
"Kinda did. But pageants are run by people like Trump. Yep, I'm gettin' political despite not even being an American citizen. Canada won with our dreamy, hockey elbowing PM. Deal with it."
Yeah, he was already on his phone to pull up a new song. This had gone off the rails a bit. But that was followed by, "Yikes, I overestimated how patriotic I am." And it was cut off again. Thank god.
"Fight song. Do it. And so help me, if any of you pick Reba McEntire, I will fail you. That TV show was an abomination."

Okay, the lyrics maybe didn't fit the whole 'fight song' thing, but nobody could tell her that it wasn't a great song to kick butt to.
Re: Talk to the Teacher/TA
It's okay, Wade. She understood how distracting Lemonade could be.
Re: Pick a Song!
THIS TIME.
Re: Pick a Song!
Because Bon Jovi.
It was possible she was not actually aware of the most likely context of those lyrics. Maybe that was for the best.

Re: Pick a Song!
Yeah. Yeah, she was basically just going to sing the opening guitar riffs, now. So that was a thing that was happening.
Re: Pick a Song!
Because a little unfairness built character.
"Oh my god, you are just the most precious thing on this island."
Re: Pick a Song!
She was so super modest.
