Retail 101, Monday morning, the street outside All and Sundries
Apparently Edmund did have a toothache, as he is off to the mainland for a dentist's appointment, leaving his class in the oh, so capable hands of Mr. S.O. Baldrick.
Baldrick, still semi-bathed from two weeks ago, is waiting for them outside the shop. There is a peculiar item pointed across the street toward the school grounds and a pile of turnips stacked neatly next to it.
"'ello class. My name is Baldrick. This," he points to the peculiar item, "is a trebuchet. Mr. Blackadder thought that today would be a good day for you to try to convince people to buy something they didn't think they needed. I'm not very good at it, but Mr. B's off to the dentist."
He mutters something about offering to take care of it himself and pulls out a piece of paper from which he begins to stiltedly read. "Class: today I leave you in Baldrick's in- in- in-CAH-pa-blay hands. Sell turns at the tre-buch-ette to anyone who walks by. There's no price. Start high. Go low if you have to. You're working with Baldrick, you now know low as only an in-ver-te-brate can."
[ooc: This class is open to passers-by because it is taking place on the street outside All and Sundries. Yes, the mun has yet another dental visit and I'm leaving this in Baldrick's capable and oh, so moddable hands. For trebuchet users, All and Sundries is located at 21 Loon Drive. Bear that in mind when aiming the trebuchet. It's also not large enough to fire cows, just turnips, and the shop is far enough down the hill that it should not impact the school/dorms/etc.]

It flew through the air and hit with a resounding splat.
"That was cool."
