American History, Period 2, 01/08

When students entered the classroom today, they would find not one, but two men standing at the front. One of them was probably familiar to some of them, the other one was a new face... Although his wardrobe probably needed a little updating.

And The Rest Is History! )

Once she knows she is one, of course!

Cal considered this, then shrugged. "So kind of," he allowed. "Rushmore's a lot more gimmick-y, and is more this guy going, 'I've got dynamite! Let's blow shit up and make it look like presidents!' I think. I wasn't there, but that's just what I figured it was a lot like."

Ino blinked. "Didn't he have better uses for the dynamite? Though, I guess that's better than randomly killing people 'cause you had it."

Just a bit.

Cal just looked at Ino for a moment on that one.

"I guess he didn't."

She stared back at him. "What? I did say that I guess it's a good thing!"

"I know," Cal said, lifting his hands in a muted gesture of self-defense. "Just a little scary that that's the first thing you think to do with dynamite. Makes me hope I'm in a completely different building entirely when you do have some."

"I wouldn't use it just for fun," she said witheringly. "It's a weapon. And you can use it too for blowing up bridges, and ruining enemy supply lines. Or as a distraction! Look at the building that's in pieces while we take care of the real mission."

Yeah.

"And, really, I did get a detention once 'cause I wanted to know why, if we were blowing up the enemy hideout, why were we warning them to get out first." Ino still thought that was weird.

"...You got a detention for that?" Cal asked.

And then realized, "Well, that's still doing more than the majority of detentions I've wound up with."

"I was disrespectful 'bout it," she said, with a shrug. "So I guess I almost deserved it. But Tyler-sensei likes me anyhow, so it worked out okay."

"How many detentions have you wound up with anyway?"

[Alrighty!]

"Three," Cal said. "That I can immediately recall."

"Oh, come on," she said, "that's not that many!"

"Those are just what I can remember," Cal said, "and I know I only earned one of them, and that wasn't even my fault."

"How'd you earn it then?" Ino asked, considering him.

"Amber was taunting me," Cal said, lifting his chin defiantly. "I had to defend my pride. She gave me mono."

"I'm sorry, but what?"

"She gave me mono," Cal repeated. "In sex ed class. Cullen had these little plushies of STDs, and she threw her mono at me. I decided to keep it; after all, you can't just give mono back, and so she threw up a fuss and we got in trouble."
