An Excuse for Field Trips, Wednesday 4th period

[sharp_man]

//Semester's nearing its end,// Jono said, once the class had gathered once again at the Causeway. //And we've mostly taken in natural wonders or ancient histories. Today, we figured we'd do something a little bit more modern, a little bit less about the sprawling vistas and whatnot.//

"One of the foundations of the last industrial revolution was factories. Automation was a big part of that. To this day, there are a myriad of factories producing millions of items. We thought it might be interesting to visit one."

//Don't worry,// Jono added, //we tried not to pick a boring one.//

...

Hopefully. You couldn't go wrong with crayons, right?

"If nothing else, it should prove a colorful trip."

You could never go wrong with a good pun, either.

Listen to the lecture

[sharp_man]

Try not to laugh, you future and futuristic people. It's not about the tech.

Vette wasn't going to laugh. Vette was going to just give a solemn nod because, sure, factories were fun, right?

When she didn't have to work in 'em.

Prompto....was still feeling every little bit of three days of being Crazy Bike Man that day, but at least it had diminished enough that he could get out of bed and drag his sore butt to class.

With a relieved breath of "ohthankgod" when it turned out there was not going to be a whole lot of hiking and movement and he was seriously doubting that he cared about his masculinity enough to avoid just asking Yang to carry him...

Crayola Factory!

[sharp_man]

All those colors! All that wax! It's all strangely satisfying to watch, at that.

Don't mind Vette. She was gonna just see how many crayons she could make off with before anybody noticed.

Re: Crayola Factory!

[sharp_man]

Before anybody noticed, or before anybody cared? So long as she wasn't getting caught by anyone else, Hannibal was just going to raise an eyebrow at her.

Re: Crayola Factory!

[chirpchirpchirp]

Well, clearly people who didn't care didn't count.

Duh.

Pretty colors. Repetitive movements. One exhausted boy.

Someone might need to poke Prompto on occasion just to make sure he was still actually there, mentally, because he was definitely being drawn in by all that and space the fuck out.

Talk to the teachers!

[sharp_man]

Once they ping in.

Re: Talk to the teachers!

[sharp_man]

Hannibal is here! And wondering what else these techniques could be applied to. Don't mind him.

Re: Talk to the teachers!

[furnaceface]

Jono is also here, and... is less wondering about techniques and more just letting himself be soothed by repetitive crayon organizing.

... He also wrapped up today, because the last thing anyone wants is to have to explain the fire guy in a factory full of wax.

OOC!

[sharp_man]

Yay for Sesame Street!

Oh god that's the most soothing video in the world somehow. I don't know how but IT IS?

Re: OOC!

[sharp_man]

Isn't it nifty? :D Blame Shannon!
