Tremble Foolish Mortals: The Gods and You, Class Twelve [Period 5, Thursday]

Apr 06, 2007 02:49

Sprawled in his throne, Ares looked at the class. "The Flying Spaghetti Monster," he intoned solemnly. "Have you been touched by His Noodly Appendage?"

Well, have you?

Or are you a follower of the Invisible Pink Unicorn instead?

Really, this place was just getting absolutely ridiculous.

It was about time someone rational seized control.

And if people could come up with something like the Flying Spaghetti Monster, well. Steerpike had no doubts as to his own ability.

Sam may be whimpering at her desk, wondering where sanity and rationality have gone and muttering something about half-lives, carbon dating, and fossils.

She also really, really hopes those religions were as satirical as they seemed.

After a brief struggle with competing urges, Jack sat next to Sam, looking at her for a long time - she couldn't have, not Sam - before saying, "Hi."

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 17:53:02 UTC

"Hey," she smiled at him, trying to figure out if he'd been sleeping, "How're you?"

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] anextimeagent April 5 2007, 17:59:26 UTC

He hadn't, he'd been awake all night with Cedric. He shrugged, drummed his fingers on the table as he debated whether to tell her about Cedric or not. But if they'd been in on selling him out to Lana together, she might already know...

Jack groaned quietly and put his head down on the desk. "I'm okay."

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 18:03:07 UTC

Sam reached out for Jack, hesitated, then decided to hell with Ares. "No, you're not," she ran a hand down his head, "want to tell me? Or go back to bed and you can borrow my notes if you decide you need them?"

He tensed under her touch, his suspicions flaring to life, but he shoved them down. It was Sam. Until he saw proof, he wouldn't believe she'd hurt him like that. "No, I need to be here," he said, making himself relax and smile at her. "And I need to tell you about Cedric."

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 18:10:06 UTC

"Cedric? What happened to Cedric?" What the hell was going on with this week?

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] anextimeagent April 5 2007, 18:16:02 UTC

Jack lifted his head and looked at Sam, some of the helplessness he'd felt showing in his face. "His magic is gone," he said, very quietly. "And he's terrified."

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 18:18:29 UTC

"Oh, no," Sam breathed, horrified at the idea, "Is there anything I can do?"

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] anextimeagent April 5 2007, 18:23:15 UTC

You've done enough. He caught the words before they could escape, countered them with his faith in her, and pushed all the confusion away. "I don't know. Come to dinner tonight? Izzy's making chilli. He's going to be there. Let him know he's safe? He thinks something's coming for him, something he can't stop."

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 18:28:25 UTC

"Of course," Sam agreed immediately, thinking again that it was too bad she couldn't walk around armed during whatever was going on. "Where and when?"

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] anextimeagent April 5 2007, 18:36:49 UTC

"Handwavy time, in the fourth floor common room." And he could watch them together, Sam and Cedric, see if they gave anything away. "Thanks." He was exhausted, and fighting these suspicions was making his head ache, and he didn't mean to open his mouth and ask, voice barely above a whisper, "You wouldn't deliberately hurt me, right?"

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] carter_i_am April 5 2007, 18:41:52 UTC

Sam couldn't answer for a minute due to her surprise at the question and started fighting off the pain that Jack even asked. "What?"

Re: Class Discussion - TGaY [Class Twelve] anextimeagent April 5 2007, 18:46:06 UTC

"Sorry," he whispered, closing his eyes. "I shouldn't have asked that." Because he knew she wouldn't, and if he was wrong, she wouldn't admit it, so he should have kept his damn mouth shut. "I didn't sleep last night, was up watching Cedric. My head's not working right." He reached out blindly for her hand. "I'm sorry, Sam."
