[ Today, some interesting somethings are happening at the high school...

A. In various parts of the building, you may see a boy posting a hand-scrawled sign that reads:

BASKETBALL TRYOUTS
GYM
3:00
MICROWAVE SASUAGE WRAPPED IN PANCAKES
Yes, with the typo. This is his subtle recruiting for Le Resistance ( Read more... )

[[The last part brought Aaron. He went to school, against his better judgement. A bit weak still from that bite. He had a band-aid on his neck.]]

"Sausage Wrapped in Pancakes?"

Ever seen it?

pants_yourmove November 30 2010, 01:38:41 UTC

"Seen... what?"

olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 01:41:16 UTC

Sausage wrapped in pancakes. You know, in the crazy frozen foods section.

This is the guys' team. Sorry.

[ Look, I wasn't trying to be a jerk, and I've known plenty of girls who can kick my butt at basketball (including, but definitely not limited to, the entire Apollo cabin). Still, this part of my "kind of sneaky resistance" involved rocking the boat as little as possible, and I was pretty sure that turning the basketball team into a co-ed program would get half the drones clutching their pearls. ]

But the drones think you're a girl.

[Comes excitedly running up!]

"Hey! Percy, hey!"

Re: B olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 01:59:16 UTC

Hey, Squid Kid. I didn't think you were in high school.

moemoetentacles November 30 2010, 02:00:40 UTC

[She's not. Thankfully, she's dumb enough that I can cover this mistake with her stupidity!]

"...It looked a lot like the other one. Did I go to the wrong place?"

olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 02:03:20 UTC

Yeah, think so.

[Crowe's not too sure what this whole sausage and pancake thing is about, but he's up for some basketball.]

Ah. I'm here about try-outs...?

olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 02:14:43 UTC

[ tossing a ball over ]

Tell me about yourself.

perfektsymmetry November 30 2010, 02:17:45 UTC

[He catches the ball, but he looks a bit surprised at the question.]

Ah. Me? Um. Well, my name's Crowe, and... ah, what would you like to know?

olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 02:19:51 UTC

Where're you from?

Still trying to decide whether the pancakes thing sounds good or gross.

Re: B olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 13:30:56 UTC

I can't believe I'm the only one who's tried them.

doastheromansdo November 30 2010, 17:33:28 UTC

Chalk it up to a unique diet and call it a day?

olympicswimmer November 30 2010, 23:41:50 UTC

Jimmy Dean's crying somewhere.
