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.

Just curiosity. Frankly this is a lot less gross than things I do for work.

[myblimpisbigger]

Good. Other students have displayed embarrassing levels of discomfort.

[I mean, gosh, it's only a sheep's brain in a jar of green liquid. Nothing weird or gross about that all. GOSH.]

[soulsborderline]

Seriously. Eva test bodies? Way weirder than this.

Hm. A sheep's brain, huh? Maybe I should name it Ayanami...but she's more of a dog.

[myblimpisbigger]

If she truly is dog-like, I am certain she won't be able to tell the difference.

Eva test bodies?

[soulsborderline]

I pilot a giant thing made of synthetic organs and metals for a living. The "simulators" for practicing in them are mostly just the giant synthetic organs.

[She's concentrating very hard and almost irritably on labeling the jar with a Japanese character.]

[myblimpisbigger]

Giant synthetic...

[Uh oh.

You're so lucky Prospero doesn't have people speaking in visible word bubbles, because his would suddenly be all jagged with zalgofont.]

I see. Later on we will have to talk more about this.

[Because that's not gross, it's just amazing.]

[Satisfied that she's learned how to write at least one kanji correctly, she subtitles the brain "Wondergirl" and sits back.]

Sure. I need to get back in the swing of crazy interdimensional hobo society here anyway.

[myblimpisbigger]

'Crazy inter-dimensional hobo society' is certainly an apt, if somewhat verbose, description.

Wondergirl?

[soulsborderline]

She doesn't deserve to be called by name.

[myblimpisbigger]

I... see. And what was her offense, if I may ask, that you've condemned her to life immortalized as a brain in a jar without even the privilege of her real name?

[soulsborderline]

She has weird hair.
