- | You decide to raise your hand. Taylor does too, as well as one of the other kids. Allison counts the hands.
| |
| | | |
- | "It's decided then. Our class mascot is a wolf." A few hands go up. "Okay, anyone who wants to can draw a wolf for tomorrow. We'll vote on the pictures then, and the best one is our mascot image. For now, it's off to your first class."

| |
- | You suffer through the boring normal-placed learning of your Math, English, and Social Studies classes. But after that it's fourth period, Club Period!
| |
- |
| |
- | Each student was allowed to pick a topic for "self-directed study". This is kind of like a class, but the students work together to learn, and teachers are only there to be a resource. Rather than a class, they call it a "club", and it can be in just about any field where five or more students could be found with a common interest. You took <i>Variant Science</i> as your first choice, and apparently so did enough other people. That meant that in fourth period you went down to the sub-basement, room B201.
| |
- |
| |
- | There are a couple dozen other kids in the room, from all grade levels. Mostly boys, but with a few girls; you recognize Taylor from home room; as soon as she spots you she heads over.
| |
- |
| |
- | "Hey! I didn't know you'd signed up for Mad Science too!"
| |
- |
| |
- | "Mad Science? I thought it was Variant Science!"
| |
- |
| |
- | "It is, but the seniors call it Mad Science because it's cooler. So, have you done any experiments?"
| |
- |
| |
- | "Yeah. I turned our pet canary invisible. Now the only way we can tell he's in his cage is from the singing."
| |
- |
| |
- | "Cool. I made my pet rabbit semi-anthropomorphic. She can actually take care of herself now, mostly, but she does spend a lot of time playing with herself." She waved her hand up and down near her groin in case I somehow hadn't gotten it.
| |
- |
| |
- | "Isn't that kind of disturbing?"
| |
- |
| |
- | "Not as bad as when she sees a boy. She likes to sit in my big brother's lap and cuddle. It's kind of creepy, what with her only being 18 inches tall."
| |
- |
| |
- | You try not to think about that. "So what's your name? I mean, I know you're last name's Taylor..."
| |
- |
| |
- | "Oh, I'm Emily. What about you?"
| |
- |
| |
- | "Pete. Pete Williams."
| |
- |
| |
- | "It's a pleasure to meet you, Pete Pete Williams."
| |
- |
| |
- | "Likewise, Emily the Bunny Girl."
| |
- |
| |
- | We both giggled.
