Extremely Safe Science With Beaker, Friday, May 13, 2022
Someone in the administration had insisted--strenuously--that Beaker have his class in the Danger Shop (something about insurance and liability and fire suppression systems), so welcome to the Danger Shop, everyone!
Beaker was wearing his lab coat and standing in front of the classroom, looking extremely nervous. This was his default expression, so don't read too much into it.
"Meep meep meep," he began as everyone found a chair. "Meep meep meep--" he gestured expansively with his arm, "--meep meep meep mee!"
Everyone get that? No?
"Meep," he said, moving around to the other side of the lab table and picking up a beaker of a clear liquid. "Meep meep meep meep meep!"
Then he picked up a huge piece of sodium with tongs. So...hopefully people who recognized that were stepping back a bit.
"Meep meep mee--" he said, tipping it into the beaker of water.
Explosion.
"MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Don't worry, the fire suppression system would kick on in a second, plus there was a very wise firefighter in the classroom.

Re: Make you own explosion!
There went another bit of sodium, crackling from the moisture in the air before he got to splash it.
Re: Make you own explosion!
"Oh good. Well that makes it all better."
Rolling his eyes like that was going to give him a headache.

"I . . . really do not," Travis said.
He really kind of did.
"I'm a firefighter. Not a firestarter."
Re: Make you own explosion!
He had possibly spent too much time around Rosa.
Re: Make you own explosion!
"Because that's not how the job works. I'm not telling you how to . . . whatever you do."
Well. He was telling him not to fling sodium. So that was a thing.
Re: Make you own explosion!
There went another chunk of sodium.
