Four [ACTION] In Which BRAINS HAPPEN!

[myblimpisbigger]

[Anyone unfortunate enough to be in Klaus's biology class will arrive to find that, on their desk, is a jar. In that jar, besides some suspicious green liquid which is totally harmless upon inspection, is a brain. It's obviously not a human brain -- too small -- but it's still a brain, and it's still on their desk, and it's still accompanied by a stick-on label and a sharpie.]

Good morning, class. Today we begin our unit on the nervous system. On your desk is your new best friend. Give them a name to distinguish them from everyone else's best friends and we can begin.

... No.

[Eating brains is a bad idea, hasn't anyone ever told you that?]

It is today's lesson and will be part of our lessons for the next two weeks at least. Eating it will get you severely docked points.

[ Was it really such a bad idea thousands of years ago? ]

Points? [ Interest caught. ] This is a competition of sorts?

[...Shoosh.]

Yes. Your are competing with your fellow students for the highest grade, which involves completing all assignments and not eating the teaching aides.

[chastehuntress]

My fellow students... ah, you mean the rest of the mongrels here? Very well, I shall score the highest amount of points to prove my superiority. Let us begin!

[If... thinking of it that way floats your boat, okay. He's had stranger students.]

You do know that everyone's point totals are confidential, yes?

action;

[chastehuntress]

Then forgive my saying so, but your competition is shit.

action;

[myblimpisbigger]

It is a lesson first and foremost. The competition is merely a formality and, in fact, only something students impose on themselves. If you wish to find out others point totals to compare to your own you will have to do that on your own time.

And preferably not violently.

action;

[chastehuntress]

It's still shit.

[ LOOK AT THIS GRADE A DEFIANCE. ]

Why can't you put them on display? Afraid of how much I'll humiliate the rest?
