[Action thread: School]

[rogue_pineapple]

[Despite Garnet's pleas, the only reason Mukuro put this plan on hold was because he was too busy brainwashing the poor girl, he needed a day to rest. He played hookie from school (not that that's any different from ordinary day behaviour for him) to sleep. That evening, he committed suicide by jumping off the top of town hall. His corpse lay

[Fran isn't normally one to be effected by many emotions. But he can't get rid of the unease that's been over him recently. The slightly disturbing but not surprising news didn't help.

So not really remembering the way to Master's house Fran finds himself wandering around the school grounds until he finds him, just lucky he's always looked young for his age anyways so none of the drones question him.

Of course, doesn't take him too long to spot a pineapple. With gasoline. Lovely.]

...Master?

[rogue_pineapple]

..Yes? [Mukuro doesn't look surprised to see in. For once, his emotions reflect his pupil's: flat]

What do you want, Fran?

[top_magician]

[That's certainly enough to cause Fran's own emotionless mask to slip a bit. His worry just a tad more obvious.]

Will you tell me what's wrong?

[rogue_pineapple]

[Mukuro looks slightly sympathetic for a moment and then he bursts into hysterical laughter. Not derisive laughter, this is the laughter of an insane man who doesn't know when the laugh and when to cry]

Hey, Fran? Know what this is? [Holds up the gas can]

[Jade dislikes his job. As such he doesn't generally make it a habit out of doing it properly. Just enough to get by without getting in too much trouble. And yes, he keeps his chloroform rag on him at almost all times. Never know when it's needed after all.

Seeing a boy who's not around often isn't enough to catch his interest. What he's carrying however, very much is.]

Excuse me, boy. If you plan to set the building on fire do give me a warning first. I'd much hate to be caught up in the panic that will ensue.

[rogue_pineapple]

This? [Mukuro sets the can in front of the so-called 'teacher']

Oh no, this is just a red herring for my real plan. Everyone's too busy thinking to themselves 'oh no, he's going to burn down the school, I better watch out'. They'll be too busy worrying about this precious can to realise the gas I put in the ventilating system.

Or maybe that's just the double ruse I'm playing and no one's that obvious.

[broken_fomicry]

[Clever, insane, obviously more unstable than he's letting on. Lovely. Jade briefly considers his usual methods.]

I see. Well at least you have your priorities straight.

[rogue_pineapple]

At least until I give the signal and my zombie hoards rise from the dead and eat my classmates. Well, actually, they'll start from the teacher's lounge. Have you eaten today? I haven't.

[If you're in the science area, chances are this guy is gonna see you while he heads to the biology room.

And he'll stop for a moment, then step back out.]

Gasoline?

[rogue_pineapple]

This?? I thought it was kerosene.

Oh well. Are you the chemistry teacher? I brought my own supplies. [He's also got a lighter and a few vials of suspiciously coloured liquids]

A good student is always prepared.

[zeppeli_cursed]

Kerosene, I see.

No, I'm a student. I don't even really like chemistry. Mind if I ask what experiment you're attempting?

[rogue_pineapple]

[pretends to think about it]

Oh, nothing much. Just something that'll help me win the science fair this year: genocide.

[rogue_pineapple]

Oh, look who it is~ The useless brat.

No, I just like the smell of gas. I'm not burning the school.

[rogue_pineapple]

Ever the coward, I see. Why don't you help me and soak some of that toilet paper over there in this gas so I can torch some things.

[rulethegame]

[Joshua's ribs are still busted up from that party last night, and he has no intention of being burned to death along with that. So he just raises a very wry eyebrow at the gasoline.]

Are you really that bored?

[rogue_pineapple]

That's just for the teachers. I've got something extra special for the students. Cooked it up this morning.

[rulethegame]

Not exactly one to make friends, are you? All right, I'll bite. What do you have in store for us poor students?

[rogue_pineapple]

Poison by gas, or poison by food. Which do you prefer?

I have a lot of friends.
