Extreme Like Soup Exploding! [LAB SAFETY DAY]

[morphitudinous]

This was it, the day that Instructors Callahan and Cranston had been anticipating (and perhaps, on Mr. Cranston's part, dreading). This afternoon, in a Sensorium-created laboratory, their students would be learning laboratory safety protocol and putting it into practice.

As students enter and receive greetings from Billy, they'll notice the main features of the laboratory if they choose to look around. A desk sits in the front of the room with boxes of supplies piled on it. In the middle sits a mysterious boiling pot. One one side of the room sits an eye wash station that shouldn't be needed today. Long work tables stretch from the front of the room to the rear, surrounded by simple stools, and a white cabinet sits to the side of the room, opened to reveal hair ties, gloves, and goggles.

Behind the desk sits a chalkboard, where Billy has written a list of paired names. Feel free to react in dismay or horror at your lab partners, students, but your instructors won't be budging. They have their reasons. When everyone arrives and is seated, they'll begin.

After processing all this, there might be another question on their minds---where's Wyn disappeared to? Students unfortunate enough to fail to arrive on time will soon find out...

((And the nightmare begins! Start tagging in the first few subthreads, team. If you're not already on the lab partner list but would still like to participate, feel free to contact Kuroi or Zoki on AIM or comment to this post, and we'll set you up. Have fun!))

Sherry was nice and on-time. Even with Stacy messing around with the time (she really needed to be let know that it was confusing and made sleeping hard), the little girl hurried along into the sensoriums, practically vibrating with anticipation.

Truly, she was a child after Luis's heart. In fact, because she was learning something, it made Sherry that much more pleasant to be around. "Good afternoon," she greeted Billy with a shy smile.

"Good afternoon", he returned, smiling as well. He glanced at the list on the board briefly, scanning his brain for a name to match. "You're Sherry, am I correct?"

And there's another girl with her. Roxie isn't nearly so vibrant as Sherry, though, having only come because she was guilted into it. She gives Billy a dull look, not even so much as a nod.

Sherry nodded, "That's me." Her eyes looked up at the blackboard and picked her own name out next to Vega's. Oh good, they could work together and plot their revenge! She would, of course, leave out whom she was working with to Leon, but that wasn't so bad.

Needless to say, she didn't feel a single iota of pity. All the cosmic powers in the world would not stop Sherry from dragging Roxie to class.

"Right. Vega's just over there, so you two can sit together wherever you like. And hello, Roxie." No, Billy won't be deterred by your lack of enthusiasm. "You'll be working with Jamie over there---that is, if he's willing to participate. If not, we can work out other arrangements."

"...Fine," Roxie says, glancing at Sherry and then over in Jamie's direction. She already recognizes him. This will (temporarily) keep her out of the way of more of Sherry's guilting, at least.

"I'll see you after class," Sherry said to Roxie, and went off to take her seat with Vega. "Try to not mock anyone through it, okay?" It was a tall order, she knew, but Sherry hoped Roxie could do it.

"I'll do my best," Roxie says dryly, and offers Sherry a small nod as she goes.
