Fur, Feathers, and Scales: The Biology of Domestication, Thursday, Period 2

"Uh, hey guys," Zack said, looking a little bemused as he stood at the front of the room with a small fleet of polar bears flanking him. "So... today is our final, I guess? But there were bears outside, so none of the animals from the shelter wanted to go out, and I wasn't going to stress any of them by forcing it. But these guys," he paused to accept a bottle of Coke that was graciously offered by one of the bears, "seem friendly enough..."

Another one offered him a bottle from the other side, so now he had one in either hand and was kind of blinking at them.

"... They're friendly enough," he continued, trying to remember where he'd left off. "So, uh... polar bears? Biggest bears on the planet, they live far up north and, um." He was now attempting to hold three open bottles in his hands withot spilling. "They're perfectly adapted for cold weather. They're not at all a domesticated species, but these ones seem to..." Hooboy, he was up to four and grimacing a little. "... to at least be a little... tame, maybe?"

The bears that were up front with him looked amused. Oh, they knew exactly what they were doing up there, the big, playful, carnivorous scamps.

"So... come and get to know them. And maybe take a Coke? Please take a Coke."

And here came number five.

...yeah, those bears totally had their number. Sidon would have been happy to help take some of those Cokes out of Zack's hands, even if he didn't feel it fell squarely into the realm of the duties of a good TA, but there was a slight problem with that. And that would be that Sidon, too, was already in possession of several bottles of soda himself, because it wasn't like he was about to say no to such a...generous offer.

And here came another one, and Sidon's smile might have been a little strained, but he nodded his head in gratitude and added it to the collection tucked into his arms. "And again," he said, "thank you very much for this! Really, you are too kind."

And he meant that with every single scale on his body. Too kind, bears, please stop, what was he going to do with all these soda?

...keep taking them, apparently.
