Staff Meeting, Friday Afternoon (after classes)

[bigdamnprincipal]

The lounge was set up for another faculty meeting, with snacks and pastries and cold drinks and hot drinks and everything moddable between. It was important to cover all the culinary basics when you were dealing with so many different kinds of people.

"Anakin Skywalker," he replied, shaking it. "I teach ethics."

"Keeping the kids on the straight and narrow?" Drake said. "Good on you. I'm thinking of doing 'Love and Romance, Hollywood Style,' next semester, since I think I almost started a riot when I went over Arthurian legend last week in class."

"No one told you about Merlin and Arthur, then?" Anakin guessed with a tiny smile.

"No," Drake said, shaking his head. "But they heard about the class and came to have a Serious Talk with me yesterday. I told them whatever they really did or didn't do, the books are all fiction, just writers interpreting and embellishing the legends. And fortunately there wasn't a d'Artagnan or Athos accosting me after yesterday's class. So what are you covering in ethics? Good, evil, the grey line in between?"

"It depends. Are you expecting a parent to break the furniture, or are you going to break the furniture on a parent?"

"It's evolution in progress?" Zoe suggested. "Or they're very special dinosaurs."

"If they do show up, my wife will be thrilled," Anakin said with a larger smile. "She's an English major. And yes, something like that. This week we covered envy, though most of the students seemed to think that not participating in the activity was going to convince me that they aren't like every teenager ever who secretly hates the person next to them for being taller with better hair."

Anakin smiled. "That also depends. I didn't plan on hurting the door last year."

"Evolution marches on," Tyler agreed. "I just hope they don't evolve a comet to make them all extinct. That would screw my office up like crazy."

"We can't all be perfect," Drake sighed, patting his hair (though it should be noted that Anakin towered over him by a whole one and a half inches). "But I get envy. I was envious of humans for years."

"The last name is more of a species description?" Anakin guessed.

"I thought Drake T. Demon was a little too obvious," Drake grinned. "And the accent mark makes it more impressive. But I'm human now, though I've still got my mojo. Made a deal, got turned into a real boy. Voila!"

"Like that puppet in the cartoon?" Anakin replied. "With the singing bug?"

Drake snapped his fingers and conjured up a cricket in his hand. The cricket chirped. "What's that, buddy?" Drake said, bending his head to listen. "You're too busy, you've got a gig in Times Square? No problem, go follow your dream." He snapped his fingers again and vanished the cricket. "Guess I'll have to be my own conscience," he said to Anakin.

"Why don't we say that whoever causes the damage is responsible for fixing it," Zoe said. "Although, not having any damage caused would be nice."

Indiana entered the room and spotted the guy with a grape soda.

Huh.

"Excuse me," he said approaching the young man, "You Jim Halpert?"

"I'm not still wearing a nametag, am I?" Jim asked. "Because that would be embarrassing after a month."

Re: Before the Meeting [09/25]

[cautiousfellow.livejournal.com]

"Nah," Indy replied. "Some kid with a rats next of a hair style handwavily told me to find you here and that you'd be drinking grape soda. I'm Indiana Jones. She said you'd be up for an expedition?"

Re: Before the Meeting [09/25]

[makesfaces.livejournal.com]

"You're actually making an expedition?" Jim said, kind of surprised. "... Is that something librarians usually do?"

Anakin stared. "That was incredibly creepy."

Drake put on a pouty face. "I was going for cute and adorable," he said. "But come to think of it, that act never went over well in the Underworld, either."

Fred was there, drinking water. Once the player realized such this post existed

"Bugs are generally not huge hits?" Anakin offered weakly.

Re: Before the Meeting [09/25]

[carpe_demon]

"Underworld is full of bugs," Drake said. "But the Source didn't have much of a sense of humor when you release a swarm of them in his private chambers. During mating season. Not that I know anyone who would've done anything like that."

Re: Before the Meeting [09/25]

[sith_happened]

"During his mating season or theirs?"

Oh, Anakin. Why did you ask that?
