Office Hours, Monday, 11/3

[tyler_gone]

Tyler already knew how the election turned out, at least in his world, so he wasn't sure why he kept checking the polling websites. Maybe it just gave him something to do until the minions showed up to make the posters, since he'd gotten in so early. (He hadn't exactly slept last night. Things were getting a little fuzzy around the edges in a way he missed.)

He finally dragged himself away from FiveThirtyEight.com and

Subject: Science Fair

Hey -

The school is sponsoring a science fair on Friday, Dec. 14, with a non-mandatory theme of "things you could use in an invasion." I'm thinking participation will mean extra credit for my students.It'll be open to faculty and students, and I'm working on the judging. Let me know if you want to volunteer for that or have other thoughts on the organizing..

I'll be sending out reminder emails between now and then and putting up posters. Otherwise, see you at the fair.

MORNING

[tyler_gone]

In which Tyler is arranging the craft supplies for poster-making.

Re: MORNING

[intraspective]

"Morning, Tyler-sensei!" Ino chirped, wide-awake and bright-eyed.

Re: MORNING

[tyler_gone]

Tyler blinked a little. "You are right on time," he informed her, with a tiny smile. "Morning, Ino."

Re: MORNING

[intraspective]

"Punctuality is important," she said impishly. "And I'd never hear the end of it if I was late after class."

Re: MORNING

[tyler_gone]

"Probably not," Tyler had to acknowledge. "Since you were the one who suggested 5:30, and everything. Want coffee?"

Re: MORNING

[intraspective]

"Not 'less you want me bouncing off the walls," she said lightly. "Which most people would rather I didn't so early."

Re: MORNING

[tyler_gone]

Tyler mock-shuddered. "Perky is a problem," he said. "I think I'll keep you uncaffeinated. More for me, anyhow."

AFTERNOON

[tyler_gone]

In which he's gone back to the polling websites and is attempting to spread confusion through the message boards.

He's bored.

Rikku leaned her head in. "Hiya!" she said. "I'm here for postery goodness!"

Re: AFTERNOON

[tyler_gone]

"I can't guarantee goodness," Tyler half-teased, "but the posters are over there and I think Ino made almost enough. Wanna try your hand at making a couple more?"

Re: AFTERNOON

[the_merriest]

"You betcha," she bounced. "Do we get to blow things up, for the science fair? Can I make them all glittery and shiny? The posters, I mean, not the experiments. Although an experiment on glitter could be pretty neat."

Re: AFTERNOON

[tyler_gone]

"You and Ino both want the glitter," Tyler mock-sighed. "I think she left you some. And yeah, you can blow things up. The theme's supposed to be 'things you can use in an invasion.' Though Principal Zoe made me promise we wouldn't test anything on each other."

Re: AFTERNOON

[the_merriest]

"It's shiny," Rikku said, pulling out a few blank pieces of posterboard. "Offensively, defensively, or both? I mean, in case of invasion, you're gonna want to have a huge firewall going, to keep people safe, right?"

Re: AFTERNOON

[tyler_gone]

"Both," Tyler said firmly. "I mean, it wasn't a detailed discussion, but yeah. It would have to be both to work at all."

EVENING

[tyler_gone]

In which Tyler isn't here, and the office door is locked. So why this thread? *cough*

Re: EVENING

[raspberryturk]

Why this thread, indeeeeed....

Somebody might have been there with a set of lockpicks. Not for any particular reason, of course. Nor was there any particular reason for the picking of Tyler's office lock.

As you do.

There was, potentially, something vaguely Smoochy-shaped within that had to be taken without.

Re: EVENING

[intraspective]

There might have been somebody else who was keeping a close eye on the hallway. Nothing they could do, right this instant, about the cameras but the masks and robes would cover that well enough.

Under the mask though, this someone was grinning. And glad enough that this office wasn't entirely unknown territory.

Re: EVENING

[raspberryturk]

A small click, and the first figure opened the door with a satisfied nod, motioning for the other someone, the partner in crime, to follow him through the door.

Inside, there had better be their prize.

He cast his gaze about, a smirk pulling on the lips that were barely visible in the shadows under that mask.

"Paydirt."

Re: EVENING

[intraspective]

"So kind of him to point it out this morning," she murmured, moving for the desk. "Makes things easier."

Re: EVENING

[raspberryturk]

"So. We wanna lug it out through the hall, or take the window. Window's faster, I think."

He was a fan of faster. And was pretty sure his companion here could handle windows anyhow.

"Lets us lock the door up again from the inside, good as new, too."

OOC [11/3]

[tyler_gone]

I think this is the OCD I needed for today...

Re: OOC [11/3]

[thismaskiwear.livejournal.com]

Mmm, FiveThirtyEight.

Delicious statistical crack.

Re: OOC [11/3]

[swipedthatfoot.livejournal.com]

I need someone to take away my access to it. I keep CHECKING.

Re: OOC [11/3]

[thismaskiwear.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. I've got it bookmarked on my phone, even. I need to be stopped.

There should be an LJ widget that just shows you the latest electoral vote/win percentage image.
