lab day
Who: Holmes and YOU!
When: Sept 29
Where: A random classroom
What: Holmes is overseeing a chemistry class. Everyone gets to mix solutions and get points for doing it!
Warnings: Mild lab accidents
[Today, you will find that Holmes has commandeered an empty classroom and turned it into a chemistry lab. Of a sort. There are tables with chemistry sets spread around, and a lot of scribbling on the whiteboard that serves as an explanation behind the science, the methods, the various intended results, and what they indicate. They range from basic to relatively advanced. I am not a chemistry person, so I am skipping the details, but use your imagination!
If you are lucky, you catch him either at the beginning or end of his lecture, which might make your understanding of whatโs on the whiteboard clearer. That said, he is an odd teacher โ fascinating to watch, but whether or not he instructs in a manner that makes it all stick is debatable. He rarely goes over problems more than once, and there is an air that he expects his โstudentsโ to understand in one go.
Near the end, he says:]
Now then, we will treat this class as a ramshackle laboratory. Upon each table is an experiment, which I expect you to conduct as Iโve taught. Move from the first table onward, then report back to me.
Donโt dally, now.
(( OOC: The INSTRUCTIONS are pretty simple:
-Start at Table 1, and follow the instructions to roll a die.
-Comment with your result.
-Wait for me to reply with either a success or a failure with very mild consequences. Feel free to thread with others/threadjack at any time during the process!
-Move on to the next table until the end!
-Get 50 points for doing an experiment! Yay!!))

He kicks out his legs and rolls over to her. Lowly, to keep it between them:]
You are upset because you didnโt perform as well as some of the others.

No. What? No!
no subject
You are. A mere look gives you away.

Exasperation:]
What do you want me to say, Ms Fairplay? I do believe you did well.

But then he sighs and rolls back around and behind his desk.]
As always, you are too critical of yourself.
[Picks up some silly enamel pins and offers them to her.]
Here. Proof of finishing this class. And my thanks for attending it.
no subject
Your thanks is enough. You should dole these out to teenagers.

Hands her this sticker, too:
And take this.

Oh.

How... darling.

You're welcome.
