fandomhigh | The Multiverse is F'ed, Y'all - Tuesday, Second Period [01/28].

"Heyyyy, guys!" Summer beamed at the students in greeting as they gathered in the Danger Shop as usual, where they would find themselves in the living room of a very typical, not-at-all-based-on-Summer's-actual-childhood-home-cough-cough where there appeared to be a party underway, with the guests ranging from your very typical average Earthling teenagers and a great deal of aliens and creatures that were decidedly not from Earth at all. "So, I feel like it's been kind of a chill week, so I thought maybe we'd have a chill day today, with a nice scenario I'm sure we can all relate to, because who hasn't been in a situation where you knew your parents were going to be out for the weekend and so you decided to throw an awesome rager at your house, only to then have your grampa completely usurp it by inviting all of his very weird and morally questionable alien friends to crash it?

"Oh, just me?" Apologies for steamrolling anyone who actually had had that experience, she was doing a bit here, okay? "Okay, then! So now it's your turn. Here's the sitch: you're throwing this party, it's going great, everyone's having a good time, no big deal. Then comes in all your grampa's weird friends, and things start to get a little...well, we'll say rowdy. You're definitely losing control of the room. And then you get a call from your parents letting you know that whatever dumb Titantic thing they were doing was just as dumb as you told them it was going to be, so they're heading home early.

"You've got the rest of the class period to try to get things under control and keep this from being at total disaster. Oh, and in addition to the unruly crowd, some jackhole totally set off one of your grampa's teleportion devices aaaaand the house got sucked into an alternate dimension and you've got to go collect some crystals as the only way to bring it back and the crystals are guarded by a giant monster."

Summer beamed at them again, lifting her red solo cup in a toast.

"Have fun, you guys!"

[[ and Summer's ocd will kill me on day...but not today! It's up!]]

There's a lot going on around you and a lot of information that Summer just threw at you, but there's plenty of fake beer and party snacks to go around, so buckle in, get in the mood, and let's get this party started!

Only to then swiftly turn around and try to get it under control.

Yeaaah, Prompto was a real loner kid for a long time, and then he suddenly became bestie to the crown prince and parties like this just didn't happen at Fandom, and so this scene was never really his jam? So he was definitely going to try to soak at least a little bit of it in before getting down to business. You know. Really get a feel for the scenario and the whole awkward standing around, not really knowing what you were doing of it all.

Tip was eyeing the various aliens curiously. Almost none of them looked like their native language might be punch-based, which was a step up from some of the aliens she knew from her world. . . .

Again, things are getting pretty rowdy and you've just got a call from your parents (or someone's parents, whoever's house this is, if your parents aren't the type to do that sort of thing or maybe, you know, exist, or whatever), plus the house is in a different dimension now!

What do?

Here are some helpful subthreads to work with!

Not long after the Traflorkians arrived, the small green globby guys started swarming all over the house and causing all sorts of mischeif and being complete and total goofs. They're just goofing around! This bookshelf pushed over onto the floor instead of standing up? Just a goof! You didn't really need this nice ceramic vase in one piece, did you? Just a goof! Oh, don't mind up, we're just planting fossils and bones all around the place to make people think that dinosaurs were real! Just a goof!!

And you know how it goes. Traflorikians gonna traflork! But whatever you do, don't call them Glip-Glops!

"Hey guys," Tip waved to the Traflorkians. They looked . . . somewhat Boov-like, after all. "Having fun?"

Oh, look! Someone brought a guitar! Because of course someone did.

Unfortunately, too, that someone is Gearhead, and not only is his playing really bad, all his songs are aggressive and depressing song about the Gear Wars that's really getting everyone either ready to stab their own ears or start a fight about their differing political views on said Gear Wars.

So, Brad? Is kind of the worse. He's the star football player and a total hunk, but when he gets at these parties, he gets really drunk and is going around to everyone and claiming he saw them flirting with his girlfriend Jessica and threatening to beat them up.

He's definitely left a trail of battered and bruised people behind him who don't even know Jessica, and he does not seem to be planning on stopping any time soon.

Okay, no, strike that. Brad isn't the worst. The worst is actually Abradolf Lincler, Summer's grampa's failed genetic cyborg experiment that merged the DNA of Abraham Lincoln and Adolf Hitler, who just absolutely cannot stop being an insufferable, cognitively dissonant and morally-confused emotional trainwreck speaking at length about the duality of his existence.

It's really, really, really bringing the room down and throwing everyone real off about how he keeps going on about how he believes in the emancipation of the oppressed but also the complete erradication of inferior genes.

Because throwing an intergalactic rager probably seems like a small deal compared to, you know, dimensionally displacing the entire house!

There is a large two-headed beast guarding the crystals that you need, but, hey, you've all brought weapons to this conventional weekend houseparty, right?

(Plus, you know, danger shop, so you can pretty much get whatever weapons you want. Basically, it's an excuse to fight something that isn't a guest at your party, okay? Summer knows her audience).

And then there's Squanchy, who keeps going around and trying to get people to 'squanch' with him, and it's really hard to tell exactly what he means by 'squanch' in this case, except that it's probably not something good.

No, the Fireys weren't at the original party that Summer is basing this one, but she ~~still had the icon~~ figured it would be a nice way to bring in a Fandom touch, and they are literally running around trying to take off people's heads and limbs, and it just seems like a good thing that the students might kind of want to stop?

Because completely ignoring all of this and just continuing to get your party on, damned be the consequences, is a legit option, though it may not prevent the raucous parts of the party from coming to you.

So are a few other things. So here's the chance to try them.

No matter what happens, it's the Danger Shop, so at the Zero Hour, just as the ubiquitous parents are about to open that door, Summer stops the sim and they're all safe from being grounded or having their WiFi restricted on their phones.

"So," she concluded, "anything we want to share about what we learned?"

Yes, she was always going to ask. She had to do something to make it seem like this wasn't all just an excuse to do stupid shit in the danger shop every week.

She's there if you need her! And mildly amused that this is actually the tame version of this particular night, while also wondering if she should have included the aftermath where she and her brother and her grampa froze time for, like, a good few months to clean up, just because they could.

Inspired heavily by S01E11 of Rick and Morty, "Ricksy Business," because this class is 100% me being a R&M nerd.
