Week Four

[stagemanagers]

[Last week, Gershwin High School Academy University saw its very first intentional murder! What a milestone! And right after Spongebob's No Murder party, too - that doesn't seem like it bodes very well for anybody's future.

You all wake up this morning with yet another new memory returned to you. You'll also find that the school's external doors have now unlocked. Congratulations! You're free! Unfortunately, you also seem to be entirely in the middle of nowhere. So maybe it's more of a symbolic victory.

Still, you should look around and do some investigation! Maybe you'll find a fun surprise.]

Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday

(( Be sure to submit your memory regains and your AC for this week! Hester's office hours and the merch booth also remain available! ))

Oh, Sonic is. He's the fastest thing around. Alive? One of those.

[ She thinks. ]

Oh! The fucking... the Shadow thing! So there's this video in one of the games, right? I... follow this guy on twitter, he quotes it constantly, it's like...

[ It's time to do Sonic AND Shadow voices. Except she doesn't actually know what Shadow sounds like, so it's mostly just. Gruff. ]

"That blue hedgehog again, of all places."
"I found you, faker!"
"Faker? I think you're the fake hedgehog around here."

[ A beat. ]

And it always sort of devolves after that so I don't know what he says next, but apparently an island explodes?

[Varian opens his mouth. Closes it.

Opens it again, can't quite remember what he was going to actually say in the wake of that.]

So...should I say that to her....?

[WILL SHE UNDERSTAND???]

[fourbutts]

[ Janis just sort of. Puts her head in her hands. ]

I'm so bad at this. Just tell her you want to learn about Sonic memes. She'll be way better at it.

[alchemistake]

[Don't worry Janis, at least Varian doesn't understand enough to actually call you out on anything.

He frowns, tilting his head to one side a bit.]

Alright...what other memes are there?

[fourbutts]

Okay, so a lot of memes are like. Things you can say, right? So... for example, if someone does something in a really unexpected way or has a really wild belief, you can call it "galaxy brain." Like...

[ She thinks. ]

Well, running all of this as a way to get us kids to pay more attention in class would be a Galaxy Brain move on the Wizard's part.

[alchemistake]

[...oh my god.]

So it's kindof like...reverse psychology?

[fourbutts]

Kind of? Like doing something really ridiculous to do something only kind of related. Sometimes people use it when it's counter-productive - like if you couldn't open a soda, so you shot it. Boom, galaxy brain.

[alchemistake]

[Varian snorts.]

Okay, that is pretty funny. I think I could probably learn how to use that in conversation, maybe.

[Anything to impress Rina...before she dies!]
