Vehicle Proficiency (and Woodworking), Thursday

[magnusrushesin]

"I hope you all got to punch a shark this weekend because I sure as hell did," Magnus said cheerfully as his class arrived. "If not, there's nothing wrong with that either."

But he was a little sad because it was fun.

"Today we're gonna go with the most important part of battle-wagon racing... picking an animal mask to wear because it's technically illegal. I have a bear mask because I feel a sort of kindred spirit there. With the raawr and the claws and stuff. So, figure out what you think fits you best. And no mongoose. I promised Taako he had dibs."

Pick an Animal

[magnusrushesin]

Make it a cool one. But then again, Magnus thought all animals were cool.

Peridot really only knew of one kind of Earth animal, besides sharks. Which was why, after a few moments of looking not entirely convinced that it was one that really suited her, she hedged, "... Dog?"

Which she'd met all of one of.

"I mean, go with whatever you want, it's your choice, but I think you're more of a cat kind of, um, person." Jason spoke up."Just a thought."

Re: Pick an Animal

[era_two_triangle]

It was true. Peridot was basically just a big green cat. Complete with hissing and knocking things from high places to see what would happen.

Of course...

"What's a cat?"

Re: Pick an Animal

[thatsweirdright]

"It's," Jason frowned, not sure how to proceed. "Here, look," he decided, finally, pulling up YouTube and clicking on a cute cat video.

Did a bunch of them come up as "suggested for you" as soon as he opened the app? Maybe. Shut up.

Peridot was trusting you here, Jason. She was trusting you as she leaned in and looked at the phone, one eyebrow raised.

"They're about as hairy as dogs," she noted.

That was important for some reason.

"Dogs are the best," Magnus said. Because oh god, they really were.

Whatever happened to Gundren Rockseeker's dog from the---oh, the gauntlet. Totally killed by the gauntlet. Magnus would be super sad if he remembered it.

"What do you think says dog about you?"

Re: Pick an Animal

[era_two_triangle]

Peridot answered that with a slow... kind of catlike blink, really.

"It's the only animal I know," she explained.

...

"That and chickens."

She knew those crossed the road.

Re: Pick an Animal

[magnusrushesin]

"You know ducks." Carved ones. Be a carved, wooden duck, Peridot

Re: Pick an Animal

[era_two_triangle]

"Right," Peridot replied after a moment. "They're like flatter wooden chickens!"

... Ish.

Re: Pick an Animal

[thatsweirdright]

Jason's first instinct was to go with a T-Rex. But that was a little too on the nose, he felt. So, hmm.

"A bull." Sure, he'd be the only one here who would understand why it was really funny, but he could Snapchat his friends back home and they'd hopefully get a laugh too.

Re: Pick an Animal

[magnusrushesin]

Also, Taako might claim dibs on that as he could turn into one. D&D, folks. It was quite a game.

"A bull! Why do you want a bull?"

Asked the guy in the hyper-realistic bear mask.

Re: Pick an Animal

[thatsweirdright]

But did he have a giant robot? Because Jason did. So there.

He shrugged. "One time I kidnapped a rival school's mascot and put it in my old school's locker room." For reasons. "His name was Beefcake."

Re: Pick an Animal

[magnusrushesin]

Her name was N03LL3 and she was her own person, thank you very much.

"Was he safe there?" BECAUSE THAT POOR BULL.

Talk to the Teacher

[magnusrushesin]

Who was now wearing a pretty awesome bear mask.

Just be glad he didn't dig out his pro wrestling outfit.

OOC

[magnusrushesin]

I need the next episode, but I fear it at the same time.

Re: OOC

[era_two_triangle]

Hold me, I'm scared. O_O

THE END IS COMING.

Re: OOC

[era_two_triangle]

I AM NOT READY.

[geniuswithasmartphone]

IF I KEEP GOING SLOW, IT'S LIKE THE END NEVER HAPPENS, RIGHT?
