Shop Class: 4/26

[manofthemullet.livejournal.com]

Mac must have been by J,GOB's because there is coffee and muffins galore.

"Morning Class, Today I would like you to design and build a habitat for our favorite holographic dinosaur. Make sure that that the habitat will have the following things:

1. Play Area
2. Sleep Area
3. Bologna Feeding Station"

Bridge happened to be wandering by the Shop in time to hear the tail end of Xander's statement. He pokes his head into the room.

"Buttery?" Bridge echoes, with, yes, accompanying fingerwiggle.

Mac looks up from whatever it is he's doing and waves. "Bridge! Come on in!"

Re: Assignment: 4/26

Bridge waves back at Mac as he enters the classroom. "So... what're we up to today?" he asks. 'Cause if he's in the Shop, he might as well do the assignment.

"We're building a habitat for our class mascot, Denver," Mac replied. "Care to join us?"

Something occurs to Nadia. "Hey, Mac, wouldn't it make more sense, since Denver is a holographic dinosaur, to design a habitat and create them holographically?"

Not that she knows how to do that, but that is what class is for, isn't it?

She waves hi to Bridge while she's talking.

"This is shop class, not holographic class. Are you trying to dodge doing work Santos?"

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[nadiathesaint]

"Who, me?" Smile of total innocense and light. "Of course not. I'm merely trying to make sure that Denver gets the most appropriate habitat possible. And a habitat for a dinosaur, even such a weetiny one as Denver, does need to be quite large. If everyone builds one, where will we store them?"

Hearing this, Denver began thinking of becoming a weetiny dinosaur land baron and sat down to plan his takeover of Fandom.

It may have just looked like he was curled up taking a nap.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[nadiathesaint]

Denver's plot should totally include a weetiny railroad for transport from habitat to habitat. . . .

And if Nadia had had any idea what Denver was plotting, she'd have told him so. Instead she just grinned at the omg!socute! of the weetiny purple dinosaur (who held the secrets to the universe) curling up for a nap.

"Sure!" Bridge grins. "I've missed this class. I totally should've done this whole dropping by thing earlier."

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Sam waved from where she was trying to decide on what kind of habitat to build. "Hey, Bridge."

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Sam, hi!" Bridge waves back.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Haven't seen you in here for a while," she said, using some small rocks to line the bottom and sides of a pond for the habitat. "Missed you."

"Don't know why I didn't come and do this sooner," Bridge says with a grin. "This class is always fun."

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

"Could it be because you had other classes and tons of things to do?" Sam asked, chuckling.

Xander turns and...well, he was already grinning, so pretty much that just doesn't change. Except for maybe where he hides the fingers he just wiggled behind his back.

"Apparently there's butteryflies loose on campus today. Baked-goods advisory in effect. Want a muffin?" Xander jumps up and grabs a blueberry one from Mac's lab bench, tossing it in Bridge's direction.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia flicked a glance between Xander and Bridge, and, still grinning, backed off a bit to work on her own project.

As much as she bemoaned the loss of another male of the school to the wonders of boykissy . . . these two were too cute for words.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge grins back and catches the muffin as he enters the classroom. "Thanks, dude!"

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander points to the dinosaur. "Bridge, Denver. Denver, Bridge."

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[carter-i-am.livejournal.com]

Denver sniffed Bridge, then went back to getting muffin crumbs all over Xander's project.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge waves at the wee dinosaur.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander thinks Bridge waving at a holographic dinosaur may be the cutest thing ever, including the year that Willow dressed up as Raggedy Ann for Halloween totally hides his huge grin behind another muffin.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge grins back and starts to work on constructing a wee-dinosaur-sized trampoline for Denver.

Re: Assignment: 4/26

[soldtoarmenians]

Xander had been going for your basic 'nest' effect for a dino-bed, but the trampoline gave him an idea.

He grabs some rope and several pieces of wood, and sets about making a sort of shallow, unlidded box, with bolts at all four corners. When he finishes, he lines it with a couple of old blankets, then hangs it from a scratched and dented swingset frame.

Not exactly a hammock, which is good because baby holographic dinosaurs would stand a good chance at getting tangled up in one of those, but it'll swing in the breeze. If, er, there were a breeze in the Shop classroom.

Denver climbed into the bed easily and nestled down. He was asleep in a few minutes.
