Dollar Store Arts and Crafts, Thursday, Period 1
Class met at the Causeway that morning, as per a handwavy message sent the afternoon before. Hardison was standing next to a van with a Lyft sign in the window "Hey all," he said, giving them a nod. "Why don't we hop into the van and I'llexplain what we're doin'."
Once everyone was in and buckled up, the van started heading into Baltimore proper. "This is Dollar Store Arts 'n Crafts," Hardison said, "a class devoted to provin' you can still have fun an' make cool stuff without breakin' the bank on fancy supplies. I teach art sometimes an' while messin' around with oil paints an' stained glass is cool, that ain't somethin' that everyone is able to afford on their downtime. So this class is kickin' it old school. No portals, no high-end art shoppes, no supplies with multiple zeroes on 'em. We're only usin' supplies you could find at your local dollar store. Creativity don't have a price tag, y'all."
Ten minutes later, the van pulled up in front of a Dollar General and Hardison led the class out of the vehicle and into the store. "A'ight," he said. "Y'all got ten minutes to look around, grab some art supplies, an' get cashed out. Call me over when your cashier is done ringin' you up an' then get back to the van, a'ight? There's plenty ofmoddable stuff in here, so use your imaginations. Grab paint, pool rocks, shaving cream, discount Christmas ornaments, whatever you think you'll need to make somethin' cool today. Your time starts..." He made a show of checking his phone. "Now."

"Cool," he said. "Until then, into the van."
He was basically channeling Eliot right now. But not with that thing Eliot did with his eyes. Because no one intelligent got into a van with a man that was making those eyes at him.

"Fine," Paris huffed.
