GAME UPDATE: September 6th, 2009 (Sunday - evening)
AT THE XAVIER INSTITUTE:
New arrivals have been settling in over the last couple of days, and hopefully the majority of them, at least, will be ready for lessons starting in the coming week. The nature ofLJ RP the school, of course, means that students and staff will continue to trickle in throughout term simply because the Institute is as much a school as it is a haven for those who need its protection, and people don't stop needing a safe place to go to just because term already started damnit.
OTHER NEWS:
Five mutants are executed in Pokolistan* without a trial for using their powers in a public place; mutant rights groups call for President Henderson to condemn the executions, but she takes no action either way.
*this is a DC thing but we figure if people have gone fo the effort of inventing stupid made up countries, we might as well use them.
WHAT WOLVERINE DID THIS WEEK:
Rescued a rare species of sentient mold from extinction at the hands of Doctor Doom. Inside a volcano.
OOC NOTICES:
Normally game updates will not happen so close to each other as this and the last one have been, but 1) from now on the majority of game updates will happen on a Sunday (usually a little earlier than this) and 2) we want lesson plans from you! Well ... kind of.
If, during the upcoming in-game week (two IRL weeks), you want a lesson one of your characters is teaching to go a certain way, or if your teacher character plans to be doing something specific and unusual with the lesson, but you don't want to actually log the thing out (which is reasonable), this is where you say so. Drop a comment on this post, other people can reply, fun for everyone.
Since this is the first week of lessons ever, I'd advise everyone with a character who's teaching to do it just so that everyone has an idea of what their lessons are like, to start off with!
(And, of course, if you do want to do a thread for a lesson, that's absolutely fine.)
We'd also like to remind you that apps close on the 30th of September!

And by cry I mean not really give a damn because he's Tony Stark.
Okay basically he shows up on time (gasp) with a large box of scraps. And I mean a very large box. He has minor physical enhancements as part of his mutation and he's still like OH GOD MY SPINE carrying this thing. It contains things like assorted circuitry, LEDs, a lot of rolls of wire, sheets of metal and the tools needed to actually cut and reattach the items on the previous list to one another. No one has any idea what he got this from, it looks like he just swept the contents of one of his workbenches into a massive box.
Which is probably EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED, but shh.
Anyways, he'll then plunk it onto a table and tell them to make something that works in the next forty minutes. Most inventive thing gets a prize. He'll walk around during that time giving hints or helping out in vaguely sarcastic ways.
He'll spend the last fifteen minutes of the lesson going over tips on how to actually make what they were trying to make, then he'll finish by pointing out that if they were working for him they'd all have been fired ten minutes in, and giving them no homework.

She's no technopath, but yeah, she can throw together, say, an airspeed indicator (something she's been wanting for a while). It'll be basic and sure as hell won't win the prize but it'll function (to an extent) and she'll be proud of herself no matter what Mr. Stark says. :3

Suffice to say, she knows what she wants to make, she understands the processes and the science behind it but she lacks the practical experience to pull it all together. She doesn't have the finesse and it'll frustrate her.
Yeah. I'm gonna go with that. :/

Turns out she checked the wrong box, but she's too stubborn to up and switch the class afterward.

I hope Tony doesn't mind having a hostile, snarky teen haunting his classroom at this rate. o.o

Consider he made a prototype glider that lasted five seconds before crashing somewhere.

He'll tinker with the parts in a fascinated way and then create a bomb, sans gunpowder, and working detonator switch. 8)

Indeed. =v=

... I mean, he's better at taking things apart than putting them back together, but he's fairly decent at both. (He made a car work and built a radio in the wreckage of post-Judgment-Day L.A. I think he knows what he's doing.) And if there's ever a day when they work on cars he'll be in Heaven.

...It won't be finished in the 40 minutes, but it'll be close.
