Advanced Journalism (Tuesday, March 28 - 2nd period)

The board behind Rita had the following message on it:

Shorthand. On my desk.

John, would you like to be a jockstrap? Because it could be arranged. So shh.

Possibly a bit preemptive, but whatever.

Or, you know, don't. Because this is Advanced Journalism, and we all know that won't happen.

"Hi Professor," John says. "How're you?"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"Shh."

"You look tired," he remarks. "Been burning the midnight oil?"

"Can you read, Mr. Crichton?" Rita asked, looking up.

"I'm merely making pleasant conversation," John tells her. "Seeing how everything was."

"It's fine. Now hush."

"Have a good night?"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"Yes. Shh."

"You know, randomly," John says, "I thought of you last night."

"Did you?" Rita asked. "How nice. Quiet now."

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

"Yeah, there was this thing on television," John says, ignoring her order, "about infomercials and I thought it would be cool to write something like that. And I thought I'd ask you. Any experience in that type of thing?"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"What is an infomercial?" Rita asked.

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Kind of an advertisement," John explains. "Selling something. I bet you'd be good at that."

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

"If you say so."

The words on the board behind her shifted.

John's jockstrap could be arranged on my desk.

John makes a face when he notices the new words.

"Professor Skeeter, have you been stealing things from me?"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"...no."

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

"Why does your chalkboard say that my jockstrap could be arranged on your desk?!"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"It doesn't," Rita said, glaring at him.

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Yes it does," he says and points to the board behind her. "Look!"

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

"I am not looking at that," Rita sighed. "I know what it says. I wrote it."

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Obviously you don't," John shoots back. "You must've written that after a shot of schnapps or something."

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[imanaturalblond.livejournal.com]

"No, I wrote it just now," Rita said, exasperated.

Re: Sit quietly in class omg.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Turn around and look," John says, still pointing. "If there is nothing there, you can turn me into an animal!"

D'anna settles in to see what'll happen this week. She remembered to actually bring her camera this time.
