TEST DRIVE MEME

[behind_the_box]

Starting now, we'll put up a new one of these very month! Feel free to use the current setting of Pandora (Christmas in July) or make up your own! You can also use the following scenarios if you'd prefer:

1. Mushroom Kingdom

Have you ever wanted to be a fairy? Well now you are, even if the answer was no! The City is a big, big place, all of a sudden. Houses are roomy affairs inside giant mushrooms, there are colorful flowers everywhere you look, and the animals are always friendly! Unfortunately, the only food items being sold in the market this month are fruit, fruit, and.... more fruit.

2. School Town

You may be too old to attend the academy, but that doesn't seem to matter; your attendance is mandatory anyway. Or perhaps you're there to teach, because you're the only resident of Pandora that possesses a certain skill. It doesn't matter if it can't be learned; you have to come up with a lesson plan anyway. At least the uniforms aren't some god awful color, right?

3. Zombie Apocalypse.

There's no coming back from death in Pandora, so you'd better do all you can to survive. Three quarters of the city are already infected, and this is the last stand. Are you going to pool your resources and try to make it together, or is it time to stop trusting others and go it alone until the month is over?

Comments

[On some level, he's taken aback by the response he receives. He could reach out and snap this man's neck, and he probably doesn't even realize. It makes him want to laugh. Everything about this situation is so ridiculous that it makes him want to laugh, and he winds up making an odd, strangled noise as he does as directed and steps into the classroom.]

I can guarantee it'll be more productive than directing your complaints to me.

[It seems pointless to respond to the comment on the difficult of the class, so he doesn't. He'll be a good student! Well, sort of. He won't be any more disruptive than anything admitting waves of malice from the back of the classroom would be, anyway. The actual quality of his work is not guaranteed.]

[Kayneth is well aware that this thing--person--whatever it is--could doubtlessly kill him in an instant, but saying "ah, I believe you could murder me with no trouble at all" is not the kind of thing Kayneth does, and it frankly makes him irritated. He has to teach this class, and he's going to do it, even if he must teach a room full of monsters, evil spirits, and rabid animals. He will teach them to sculpt, and they will like it, dammit.]

Did I complain? As I recall, I merely informed you what class this is, because I am tired of students wandering into the wrong rooms at the wrong times because no one has any bloody idea of what they're supposed to be doing thanks to general incompetence and a complete lack of organization.

[Kayneth doesn't give full marks for effort, so he'll be the judge of whether Archer is a good student or not. He moves back to his podium.]

Your name?
