Testing time's the worst.

[That sounds more like a comment to himself than to anyone else, though, even if there's a responding bark in the background. But for once, it sounds like normal teenage whining.]

Whoever thought it was a good idea to make everything due at the same time must have been an idiot. Or a sadist. Probably both.

[possiblycantdie]

Have you considered something chemical? [ Yes, science did perk her ears. And teaching isn't anything new either ]

[escapedpandora]

Oh! Like the... volcano one?

[possiblycantdie]

[ She does not know what this is ] Or perhaps something different. Where do your interests lie?

[escapedpandora]

That... that's the question, I guess.

[He's not quite sure of it himself.]

I just thought I'd have to do the project, you know. Kind of like interests didn't really matter.

[makes_asteroids]

I could help you make an earthquake table, if you'd like?

[escapedpandora]

Earthquake table? ...Measuring it? Or predicting it?

[makes_asteroids]

Either or. The former is more simple than the latter, but the latter is a bit more fun.

[escapedpandora]

[That's caught his interest, then.]

That's... that sounds better than why baking soda and vinegar react when mixed.

What is the project supposed to be about?

[escapedpandora]

we were supposed to choose the subject? it could be anything, i think.

[dataprotector]

Science is a rather broad area to choose from, though.

[escapedpandora]

something without pages of reports?

they're evil and want it all handwritten.

[dresden4hire]

For maximum interest I suggesting doing something that results in some sort of explosion or explosion-like.

The part of me that pretends to be a responsible adult though suggests something less dangerous.

[escapedpandora]

We're not supposed to make the school explode.

...They actually said that.

[dresden4hire]

Were you hoping to explode it?

[escapedpandora]

Well, I hadn't thought of it before they said that?

[Audio]

[escapedpandora]

Ah! Um, [He recognizes that voice.]

Not-- not yet? I kind of... forgot about it for a while.

[Audio]

[escapedpandora]

Um... next week?

[Yeah, there's a wince on his part.]
