Who: Soryk, you, you, you, and you, and maybe you
What: Poisons Class wow this is almost Harry Potter
Where: Soryk's Classroom
When: Late Morning - 11/20
Warnings: Soryk doesn't know how to teach people things.



He'd spent hours setting it up. And by 'setting it up,' it really meant writing out a rather long and excessively organised list involving curriculum. Soryk didn't quite know how he got into the position he did. It was mostly being pulled aside by the Headmaster, blatantly told that while he was in the academy, he ought to be making use of himself, and that poisons would be a most intriguing if not deadly addition to the school.

The issue was...

Soryk didn't know the first thing about teaching anyone anything.

And as far as he was concerned, standing at the front of a classroom, leaned up against a desk, and fingering his goatee did not paint him a particularly 'instructor' sort of man. He looked too nice - in his opinion - to be an instructor. Scholars were scholars. He was a man of action and a man of cunning and clever words. And fancy clothing: doublets, breeches, cuffs, and boots, seemingly hand-crafted and embroidered. From head-to-toe, Soryk was of the utmost not 'with the times,' and painfully so.

All the same, he supposed he'd do what he could until he could find a way back to Azeroth and the insufferable Garrosh Hellscream.

A variety of plants were strewn about the classroom, mostly foreign plants - native to his homeland and the other places beyond it. Soryk wasn't much of a fan of them, but plants were a crucial part to development of poisons. On his desk sat a rather becoming pile of rhubarb.



And then on each desk, even more rhubarb.



For there was no better way to gain the experience than with hands-on participation.

[Yes hello. You were an elf. A real live elf. Real elf. Teaching poisons.

Vianca sat very quietly in the front.]

[Bulba was no longer a student so technically he was a lurker. So he was lurking.... by taking one of the empty seats near the back, once he was sure that all the actual students had enough seats for themselves.]

[Eli was also there, sitting just behind Vianca. Looking rather unimpressed.]

Excuse me, sir. [ He raises his hand high. ] What are we meant to do with these rhubarbs?

[ There has to be some sort of intricate experiment involved here! ]

[Katarina fiddled with her blade, putting it back in its sheaths as she glared randomly at students down the hall. Who stepped away from her.

She snorted.

She was headed towards poisons class, in need of some poisons for her own class. She didn't really care that class could end up with half of the students poisoned while trying to properly soak weapons.

She knocked only once, before opening the door to poisons lab, then went wide eyed. Why is the room- what is--]


What's going on in here?

Oh -- am I prohibited from wearing this? [ He takes off his hat obediently, laying it down on the table, away from the rhubarb. ]

I apologize. I hadn't heard word of this rule.

[ He isn't sure if that's a mistake on his part or the staff's, but it really doesn't matter. ]
idealisms: sᴏᴜʀᴄᴇ: ??? (♔ i beg your pardon?)

[personal profile] idealisms 2012-11-21 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Is that all?

... Might I ask what this has to do with the subject? I cannot say I understand.

[ Eep -- is this something common sense that he should be knowing? If so, goodness, that's a pretty bad mistake. ]

[Katarina tentatively stepped in, frowning. Was that another rhubarb pile on the floor? Wait- did she stepped on some too.]

This looks more like gardening class than poison. [And yes, that was a slight slip there. Why is there so many plants in here? Sure, they needed some to make poisons but... this seemed a bit over the top.

No matter...]


I am here to collect several bottles of poison. [She handed him over the permission and continued to glare at the mess.] I thought it needed to be hygienic to make a good poison. [Or her sister was clean freak.]

Oh, no, I am not questioning your abilities. In fact, it may be my own fault. I could have easily missed the logic behind your teachings.

[ He's a teacher, so he must know what he's doing, right? At any rate, even with the somewhat aggressive response, he remains calm. It's understandable, really, to feel offended at that possible implication, so it doesn't upset him. ]
