Basis of Mechanics #3 - A Project!
Characters: Smithy and his students
What: Basis of Mechanics Class 3 (PROJECT)
When: Tuesday, June 23rd
Where: The Mechanics classroom
Rating: Hopefully PG.
"Harrumph!"
Yet again, the common greeting rang through the room as the students sat down and Smithy addressed his class. "Today is a very important day. Each and every one of you are going to have a project to do."
He walked around the class as he continued. "You are each going to pair off with another student. I will allow you to choose who you pair off with. HOWEVER!" He faced the class. "If any of you are late or cannot decide for yourselves, I will decide for you. You can also ask me if you'd rather me decide for you. As for the project...
"Every two students are to build a mechanical robot. It does not matter what its form is, or how big or small it is. It must be a 'mecha' - that is, a mechanoid or a robot that you would see in some animations. You can make them like the ones you may or may not have seen in those shows, or you may make your own. Your grade will depend on how well it looks, as this project is merely to test your skills in the class thus far, as well as your willingness to work with others." The last few words were spoken with a very gruff tone; Smithy was used to working on his own, so it was odd to say this.
"Now, sign in, decide who you're going to pair off with, ask me any questions you'd like or if you want me to pair off with others, and begin! You have two weeks to finish this assignment. You may work on this outside of class anytime you wish; it is up to you to contact your partner outside of class. BEGIN!"

Re: Once you have paired off with someone, speak about/work on the project here!
"Well mechas are pretty much giant robots equipped with weapons and can be piloted from a cockpit that's located inside the robot. Usually in the head or chest areas."
Slippy began to draw on the piece of paper.
"They usually look something like this but we can alter it as much as we want."

That robot. Was. Awesome. There were no ifs, ands or buts about it. Tails just stared at it. It was so impressive - just the sheer possibilities that arose from this drawing.
"I can definitely work with something like that!" he exclaimed almost giddily. "Wow... it looks so amazing. This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it!"
Tails' 'OH MY GOD MACHINES' mode switch has officially been turned on.

"So, how do we start this?"
