☠ LXVII

[deathbutler]

Ahem. Attention, Cutlers boys signed up for my class. I had originally planned to start us out with Othello. Mr. Castle, you may refer yourself to what. causes. so. much. strife. in. that. play.

But, it seems you all will be in need of some re-education, so we'll be starting instead with Romeo & Juliet. Without lightsabers, gentlemen. An epic

Why are you the poetry club advisor?!

[deathbutler]

Beg pardon-

Do you mean besides the fact that I'm most suited?

[For some strange reason, a copy of film Romeo + Juliet shows up in Grell's box.]

[The anonymous gifter feels incredibly amused. If Grell is having problems with lightsabers in Romeo and Juliet, how will he ever stand their guns being named swords?]

[der_freischuetz]

Are they really putting lightsabers into Shakespeare now? How barbaric!

[deathbutler]

Lightsabers!

It's more than barbaric- it's blasphemy!

[der_freischuetz]

It is! And anyone doing that deserves to fail your class spectacularly!

[deathbutler]

I concur.

If they insist on doing it in Mr. Castle's room, they certainly had best abandon that hope at my door.

[had_not_lived]

Well, I thought it was an interesting staging choice, but there's nothing wrong with doing it traditionally, either...

I'd be interested in the poetry club, as well.

[deathbutler]

You'll find me a stickler for tradition, my dear boy~

Your name? I don't believe you've graced my classroom before.

[had_not_lived]

I can understand that, particularly when it comes to literary analysis-- but isn't there something to be gained from studying different productions from a theatrical point of view?

Neil Leonard, sir.

[deathbutler]

With Mr. Castle, perhaps~

Leonard... Leonard...

Please then. Call me Mr. Sutcliff~

Interesting lessons plans you have over there.

[deathbutler]

Think so?~

[trolloboros]

The lightsabers might be an interesting thing to see.

[deathbutler]

But I won't be having it.
