Who: GLaDOS and all of you.
What: Ms. GLaDOS' first class (BE THERE OR ELSE)
When: Thursday 10:00 am.
Where: Computer Lab.
Warnings It's GLaDOS, that's a warning enough.

Well, this was it. Today was the big day, GLaDOS' very first class. Despite how she had acted over the network, she was actually somewhat looking forward to this class, if only because she wanted to study the students as well as any passerby. Besides, who knows? Maybe this would be interesting, or at the very least, entertaining. However, while some part of her was a bit excited, most of her was dreading this. She had spoken with a few of the students over the network and the majority seemed beyond idiotic. She almost missed Wheatley.

Almost.

But regardless, she had written up a simple lesson plan that would just her through this class until next week without any trouble...hopefully. She'd have to confront the hands to see if she could get an "Intro to computers" class and then a normal computers class because teaching both the dumb and the smart (if there was any) would be hell. But that was in the future, right now she had bigger problems to worry about. A sigh came from the teacher as she checked her watch, 9:50 am. Might as well get outside and make sure the brats show up. So when you walk by said lab to go inside, you'll be seeing Ms. GLaDOS standing outside the door of her lab, arms folded. She'll occasionally check her watch to see when she can go in and send any late students to detention.

[ooc: Alright, this is her first class log, so I'll be splitting it up into sections. Feel free to threadjack each other, students. And teachers? Feel free to observe or whatever it is you do.

Also, for a reference the computer lab looks like this, but bigger.]

Oh! Awright.

[She writes it down.]

'Per-son-al Com...puter.' I didn't know that! Thank ya.

Not a problem.

[Nice to see SOMEONE's taking notes.]

So. Ms. Nephenee, do you understand how computers work? In the basic sense, of course.

Uh...not really, ma'am. Until someone told me otherwise, ah thought they were magic.

[She nervously giggles. She was a silly girl then.
Not that much had changed...]

Magic?

[She frowns.]

Magic does not exist. Computers are run by science, not some cheap parlor trick.

Back home, it does, ma'am. N-not to back talk or nothin'!

But what makes 'em run?

Edited 2012-05-29 15:34 (UTC)

[A long pause. It's entirely possible the laws of physics could be different in other worlds. While the idea of magic still seems illogical...she can consider it.]

Tell me more about this...magic of yours.

[And then, she answers the question without as if it's the simplest thing in the world.]

Science. Different types of sciences are combined together in order to create computers.

Well, ah know some magic is different here, but back home only certain people who studied real hard could use it, and it was of different types, like fire and wind and electricity. And ah think ah heard each one was weak to wrong, and strong against another, but don't quote me on that.

[She forgot light magic, but that was a different animal]

What types of science?

[Inquiring minds want to know.]

Edited 2012-05-29 15:48 (UTC)

So, in essence...what you are saying is that magic itself is a science?

[Mind = Blown]

Technology, electricity, engineering, and programming. Just to name a few.

Ah...guess? Ah really don't know much about science.

[WOOSH over her head you went, GLaDOS.]

T-that's a lot of science.

[Though for now she imagined Ilyana inside powering it, and that set her to giggling.]

A shame. Perhaps that can be rectified.

[She has a knack for that.]

Something funny, Ms. Nephenee?

[Ms. No-Fun is unamused by your laughter.]

N-not really. I just got a funny image in my head about electricity. It's nothin', really. But yeah, I'd like ta learn more about science.

Try to save the laughter for outside of my classroom.

We shall see. Being a scientist myself, I am unsure if it will interest a person of your...caliber.

Yes, ma'am.

...'Caliber'? What's that mean?

It means a degree of capacity or competence. Really, I thought you'd know that.

I ain't ever heard the word like that. I heard it for guns, but not...like that.

[There are many things Neph does not know, GLaDOS. You shall learn this quickly.]

[Lineface champ up in hurr.]

This may surprise you, Ms. Nephenee, but certain words do have other meanings.

[Get used to linefacing over here, GLaDOS. She's not the most learned thing.]

I guess that makes sense.

There is no "guessing", Ms. Nephenee. It either is or it isn't.

That being said, do you have any more questions? Hopefully ones involving my class.

Uh...yes, ma'am.

I ain't got no more questions, ma'am.

Very well. Let's continue with the lesson then.

[inset blah blah blah computers blah blah here.]

It was but aha her knowledge of computers is pretty sketchy. Medieval world and all :I

I understand entirely. GLaDOS on the other hand...well...we'll see.
