Books vs Movies, Tuesday first period
It was possible that Jon had gotten this class list after searching Google for useful things.
It was possible he hadn't actually known this story before reading it.
It was possible he was a little uncomfortable with the whole "people becoming monsters" topic. And definitely conflicted over the man-eating monsters being the good guys. But he was an adult, he could handle this.
"I hope you all enjoyed the story," he started out. "And, um. We should probably touch on a few things. Like the fact that psychiatrists in general are not conniving serial killers," he trailed off as he remembered his office's prior occupant. "Also," he hurried on, "in general it's a bad idea to trust in the good will of monsters. Or police." Or police who were monsters. Unless you risked your life for them and...never mind, he was getting sidetracked by his own mind.
"Let's just watch the movie, shall we?"
Afterward, he wrote next week's book on the board: The Golden Compass.
[Sorry, no online text for next week's, apparently.]
