Sparkly Destruction - Arts & Crafts That You Can Use, Thursday 3rd Period

[wrongkindofsith]

At least one of your teachers was really excited to fight a dinosaur. At the very least, one was pretty much bouncing with suppressed energy as class began.

"We should have dinos in our next fighty class," Magnus said.

"I like the feathery ones better." That wasn't a disagreement, giant, feathered murderbirds seemed a lot more dangerous.

"We can find those after!" Compromise, children. About fighting giant, feathered murderbirds.

Magnus grinned at the class, gesturing out into the woods. "So there are super dangerous things out here now. Let's make a simple weapon out of what we've got!"

And in case they hadn't figured it from the fact what they had were pointy sticks and sparkly rocks, "Since most of these super dangerous things are bigger than you, that means you want something with reach."

"A spear!" Did he need to emphasize the word that much? No. But it was fun to say like that. "Please don't stab each other, though. I think we'd get in trouble for that."

"Let's not find out."

Magnus nodded in plaintive agreement. "We've got sticks and rocks and extra glitter."

"Well, I don't exactly love being electrocuted," Shuri said.

"It does suck pretty hard," Mae admitted. "But you know if you make it shock people, you're basically just electrocuting them, right?"

"Oh, I have no problem electrocuting other people," Shuri said with a little grin. "I have a pair of gauntlets that do that."

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

"What, really?" Mae blinked at that. "That's . . . hardcore."

"I like to make things," Shuri said, "and back home we had a brief...coup. It's fine now, though!"

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

"I guess taser gloves would probably be pretty helpful during a coup," Mae acknowledged. "Or if you had to fight vampires."

Though she was still going to end up going back to her trusty bat if that came up again.

"People keep mentioning vampires in a way that I'm starting to believe they aren't kidding about," Shuri said carefully.

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

[thishouseishaunted]

"Oh good. 'Cause it would really suck if it turned out I just hallucinated that whole thing."

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

[scoffs_at_tradition]

"So you used taser gloves to fight vampires?" Shuri asked.

This was fine. Totally fine. Vampires, dinosaurs...T'Challa in no way would freak out about this. Nope.

"Noooo," Mae said. "I used a baseball bat. And screaming."

Never underestimate the power of a tiny cat-faced person shrieking like a banshee.

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

"I heard your screaming was very impressive during the relay race," Shuri said.

Re: Spears! - SD [02]

[thishouseishaunted]

"I'm an Olympic quality screamer."

Mae.

"I did not realize that was an event now," Shuri replied.

"Not officially. But that just makes it even more fun."
