Computer Science and Repair- Tuesday- 2nd period

[throughaphase]

Welcome to the last day in the Danger Shop! Which was bare today.

"Morning," Kitty greeted the class. "Last week I warned you that your final is going to be to program the Danger Shop yourself, so hopefully in the time since then you've figured out what you wanted to do. Hopefully you've learned something here, or at least had fun. So now you're going to take turns and set up your simulation, and we're going to see how you did!"

Talk to Kitty

Hi!

Well, this was a little awkward. At least, Tisarwat was definitely still new enough that it felt more awkward than it probably really was, but she hadn't been there last week (apparently!), or the week before, for that matter, and so she was definitely still feeling like she'd gone out into space without a tether right now.

She figured it would be best to just straightforward about it, since this was Fandom, and for all she knew, stuff like this happened all the time, so she went to just talk to the teacher about it instead of just trying to wing it like she knew what was going on.

"Hi," she said. "So, um, I don't really have anything planned or prepared for this. I've kind of been stuck in a pocket dimension in the school's lockers for the past two weeks."

There was a pause.

"Apparently."

It really, really took some adjusting, especially for someone who was still sort of adjusting to having had an entire thousands-year-old consciousness forced into her brain and then violently ripped out again.

"Yeah, that happens," Kitty said way too casually, but not unsympathetic. "Do you think with instructions you could put something together today if you go last?"

If it weren't for the locker situation and her persistent migraine, Tisarwat was pretty sure she could figure it out and put something together even without the instructions, especially considering the technology and the general accessibility of the Danger Shop as a whole. But she'd be lying if she said that the offer of instructions wasn't an incredible relief that would make the job much, much easier.

So the relief in her smile was moderately genuine. "I think so," she said. "I should be able to come up with at least something."

If she set the expectations pretty low, she wouldn't have to worry about trying to be too impressive or even good right now, since she was definitely not functioning at her best.

These things happened! Kitty could be accommodating.

And she didn't want to work into break week because of a pocket dimension.

"You should be able to manage okay, but you can look these over while the others are going," she said, pulling the instructions up on a tablet and handing it over. "There's no restrictions on what you can come up with, either, so feel free to get creative."

Re: Talk to Kitty

Tisarwat took the tablet and considered it, her eyes skimming quickly over the instructions. Creativity was never really her strong suit, but she was already getting the seed of an idea inside of her very crowded, very throbbing head.

And it was not the weird little dimension she'd just forced her way out of, but rather the one dimension she wished she could have gone to, instead.

"Thank you," she said, nodding to Kitty, with a small smile of gratitude. "I think I've already got something in mind."
