[It's a pleasant afternoon in the garden. Maybe not emotionally, but physically - isn't it nice when you get to have class outside?

As your voices rise, singing defiance in unison out for the Wizard, there's no immediate response; at least, nothing that clearly is a response. But there's something. Amidst the sound of your song, it may be hard to hear at first; Janis will likely be the first to notice, but eventually everyone is able to hear. It sounds as though other voices are rising along with yours.

There's something on the air - no music, or at least no instrumentals, just a disembodied sort of lyrical chant. You don't recognize any of the voices. They aren't singing the same song as you all are. Maybe they can't; they sound long long ago, and far far away now. Still - despite everything - the trees around you move lightly in a sudden soft breeze. It feels as though you have invoked something, old and entirely beyond your knowledge.

But first. Haven't you forgotten something?

It's Wednesday.

Welcome to this week's school club!]

Nah, that's too easy even for me.

Congrats though! A good shanking can really wreck a relationship but renew a beautiful friendship. [He and Lydia are on way better terms now, especially since he's taking her to Black Plauge Times Summer Camp.]

[employeeoftheyear]

[Distantly, confused:]

Should we all be shanking our friends?

[mcfife]

Spongebob, no!

[Knives are bad!! Please!!]

[employeeoftheyear]

But that Beetlejuice guy said...

[Why would an adult lie about something like this???]

[mcfife]

Would you stab me? Or Farrah?

[employeeoftheyear]

Well I don't wanna, but if it strengthens friendships...

[Oh god is he going to be a bad friend if he doesn't stab everyone he loves?]

[mcfife]

I don't want to be stabbed again, Spongebob.

Stabbing me would ruin our friendship.

...Beetlejuice is different. [You weird ghost guy.]

[voicerights]

No!

[brokeforgood]

NO.

[disharmonizes]

And this is why everyone is banned from having blades for the next century!

[employeeoftheyear]

But dad how am I supposed to chop vegetables for the Krabby Patties if I don't have a knife!

[brokeforgood]

[muttering]

Including you—- [not even by his own fault.]

[disharmonizes]

Blame Antonio, he handed it to me!

[This is now a PSA on the dangers of peer pressure stabbings.]

[brokeforgood]

I do! His knife goes in the knife box too, this time!

[violentenvies]

I didn't hand it to you so you could then try and stab yourself with it!

[disharmonizes]

No, but then you handed it back to me to stab you with it, so let's not pretend you have the high ground here!

[reassuranceandrevolution]

[Confused]

Who's this kid?

[employeeoftheyear]

[He beams.]

Nice to meetcha! I'm Spongebob!

[Holds a hand out to her to shake :)]

[reassuranceandrevolution]

[She gives a bemused smile and shakes his hand politely.]

Sigyn. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[employeeoftheyear]

[He is positively glowing as she takes his hand.]

Hi Sigyn! Did you come to rescue us from this creepy school?

[brokeforgood]

[shes both relieved and a lil sad bc i had this all ready]

Or wreck a friendship.

[beejfq]

Yeeeeeeaaaahhhhh, it might be different when you're a demon and were only alive for a full minute.

[violentenvies]

I am not even going to dignify that with a response.

[brokeforgood]

Dad, you're responding right now--

[violentenvies]

[alskdhflksdh] Yes, but not a proper response!
