Music 201 - April 6, 2006 - Period 7 - Class #23

Hmm. Ted isn't here. However, there is a large, hulking man with a strange forehead and only one eye standing at the front of the class in bulky garb. It looks like he's waiting for someone to show up. Better come in, eh?

Mind the food on the table. There are bowls full of Klingon delicacies, such as live Gagh (squirming serpent worms), Rokeg blood pie and blood wine. Yes, the blood wine is alcoholic and very strong. Someone forgot to tell Martok that alcohol wasn't for the kiddies...or they were too scared to tell him.

"Nuqneh, pe'el students," Martok greeted. "I am Martok, head of the house of Martok." He spoke slowly, but with a commanding voice. "I am Klingon and your esteemed teacher, Ted, son of...uh...Captain Logan, invited me here to instruct you in the ways of the Klingon opera. Many outsiders do not appreciate the fine art of the Klingon opera." He leered at the class with his one eye. "Do not fall victim to such weakness. Klingon opera is an art that shows the true strength of the warrior through his voice."

Martok burst into song without warning.

Kak-lah... Kak-lah ...
Kah-pool-AYYY-do-la-kak-lah...
Yoh boo la to dah...
Yoh boo la to da...
Ah... do ro may... do ro may... do ro may...
do ro MAY de lat so may...
Uh clop-doh... uh gah...
Uh clop-doh uh gah dor...
Uh clop-doh... uh gah... dor ray... dor ray... dor raaaaaay.


"Klingons sing of battle and honor. Any day may be a good day to die, and a warrior must sing with his heart and his soul to show his true worth for when that day comes. Now you may ask questions."

Pip signed in and found he had no trouble not starring at the Kingon's lack of an eye.

I mean, he saw the same thing in the mirror every morning. Big deal.

During the Lecture

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Pass notes. Get caught. He may only have one eye, but it's a sharp one.

Re: During the Lecture

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto wasn't passing notes.

Throwing paper airplanes with snakes drawn on the wings however...

Re: During the Lecture

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Cameron decided that Klingon Opera might not be his thing.

Re: During the Lecture

[swerval_zero]

Zero spent the lecture trying to decide if this guy was more or less scary than her sister in a bad mood.

Re: During the Lecture

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge is actually paying attention and taking notes, omg.

Ask Martok

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Martok is here for all of your questioning needs. He may even dish out some advice for being a great warrior. Just don't make fun of his eye.

Re: Ask Martok

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Uh, is it me or is the food moving?" Because it seemed like a relevant question.

Re: Ask Martok

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"What if someone's tone-deaf?"

Re: Ask Martok

[wannabelawyer.livejournal.com]

"Uh...do you sing about anything else, ever? Besides battle and honor?" Lindsey asked. "Not that those aren't good things to sing about," he added quickly.

After Class

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Talk to Martok one-on-one.

Re: Ask Martok

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip approached Martok after class. "Can I ask a question? Just as one fighter to another?"
