01.50 - week one, saturday
W1 SATURDAY
The first week of the Personal Enrichment Course draws to a close, which means it’s time for the first lesson. Hopefully by now you’ve gotten to know your classmates a bit better - but if you haven’t, that’s okay.
This first lesson is just going to be teamwork exercises, after all.
Bright and early Saturday morning, you wake up. Maybe you had a good night’s rest, or maybe you hardly got any sleep... Either way, the sun is shining, the day is beginning, and Lorelei's voice suddenly comes through everyone's tablets as well as the P.A. system on campus.
”Good morning. All students must report to the lecture hall by 8 o’clock for their first lesson. Lessons are mandatory. Please report to the classroom with its doors open.”
Which gives you about thirty minutes, so it’d be best to hurry. Do you want to be tardy? And if you think about bailing, well… you know what might happen if you fail the course.
When everyone gathers in the same hall they awoke in, Florence is there to greet you. They will gesture for everyone to take a seat, and once seated, the projector in the room turns on. Say hello to Lorelei and her usual cup of coffee.
“Good morning, everyone. Welcome to your first official exercise; today’s activities are designed to emphasize teamwork and cooperation so you are all more prepared for dealing with what’s yet to come. I have already split you into teams for the day, via raffle. There will be two activities total, and you will be completing them in the same teams. Regardless of whether you get along with your teammates or not, you’re going to have to figure out a way to finish each exercise successfully.”
She keeps that same calm, collected smile on her lips as she props up what appears to be a tablet of her own on her desk.

Honestly, if it was just regular paint spray, glow in the dark would be pretty cool.

[Says the guy now stuck wearing his cozy sweater, after soapocalypse the day before.]
I wonder if there's anything of actual use we could get them to add.
no subject
[He's not even trying to hide the fact that he's laughing here.]
no subject
I'm waiting for your suggestions, Marcus.
no subject
[Looks at Phantom's messy braid...]
... not that you would know, of course.
no subject
Of course. Neither Phil nor I have any use for it.
[Can't diss his hair without it being a two for one, Marcus!]
no subject
husbandmaster. (You technically did it first, Marcus.)]All the more reason we should use you as our model. You do have the most hair to work with, after all.
no subject
I agree. It would be best to show this "hair spray" in the most challenging environment possible, and what's more challenging than longer hair?
And if it doesn't work, we can just cut it off.
no subject
That would be the opposite of a convincing demonstration!

Challenge accepted. ]
Hey, Phantom. Get over here.
[ says the hair stylist with the hairspray ]
no subject
[Phantom looks between the members of this entirely untrustworthy group and then. Tugs the little hairtie out of his braid and sidles over to Hien.]
Fine. It's of no concern to me in any case.
[HE LOOKS A LITTLE CONCERNED...]
no subject
[ He used to style hair! That's why he knows this stuff. It's fine.
He's gonna make Phantom look gorgeous. ]
no subject
[THIS IS FAITH. He trusts Hien to keep Marcus and Owen away from his hair.]
