The flyers advertising this Horseman welcoming situation had mentioned fighting far too many times for there not to be any, even West could see that. He hoped he was actually correct in his assumption. Even though he wove a mean basket, he had no interest in putting together any fruity offerings for a bunch of mourning ponies. The demon narrowed his eyes as he entered the auditorium and scooted up behind a diminutive goldfish ghoul he hadn't seen around these parts before. Was she a Hunter in disguise? Would an undercover Hunter go so far as to attend a meeting of students who appeared to be happily welcoming Horsemen into their midst? Maybe.

West loomed over Gilly's shoulder as she signed her name, then pulled out a pen of his own and added his to the list. He would be keeping an eye on that one.

"Hello~o, spookies!" The cheery voice of the school janitor, Moira, preceded her into the room; when the headcrab zombie did shove the doors open, she was followed by another line of gnomes carrying still more fruit. "I'm so glad you're all here! Let's give our new neighbors a big warm Amityville welcome! No, put those over there, Pierre," she added, pointing at a gnome laden with booberries.

"Now... let's not make these baskets all the same! That would be super-boring! I've got all this fruit, so each of you grab a basket and pick out four fruits to fill it up! Just make one basket each for right now, okay?" She beamed at the assembled students. "And don't - don't - eat any of them, or... um, throw them. Okay?" The cheerful smile faded into a steely glare. Several of the gnomes visibly flinched.

And then it was gone, her face smoothing out into its usual happy expression. "Off you go, spookies!"


Phase One: Basket Assembly

You must put together a single basket using four fruits! Feel free to discuss your choices among yourselves; if you want to ask Moira a question, quote me!

Note that Moira was serious about not eating the fruit: if your student tries, a gnome will automatically snatch the fruit away from them. This is not negotiable - no matter how awesome or stealthy or quick your student is, the gnomes will snatch the fruit before it can be bitten into or thrown or whatever. Feel free to try, but you have to NPC a gnome taking the fruit away!

You can pick four fruits total - this is four individual items, each a different kind. The types of fruit available to you are, in alphabetical order:

- boafox cherries
- booberries
- caramel apples
- grapes
- lemons
- oranges
- pineapples
- prickly pears
- pumpkins
- starfruit

Regardless of any RP you might do with your fellow students before or after, all students must make one post in which they assemble their finished basket. Put the following at the bottom of that post:

The next phase of this class will begin at 10:00pm PST on Sunday, May 20th!

((Rolling for his fruit simply because I'm lazy))

Roch headed for the table, idly picking up one of the caramel apples and bringing it to his lips--when one of the gnomes LEAPED into the air, snatching it from his hand and giving him a look of disgust before putting it back in place.

Roch's teeth closed, making a snapping sound as he bit into air. "Whut?" he asked a bit irritably of the gnome. "Fine, fine," he muttered, grabbing a handful of things he probably wouldn't eat. Booberries, lemons (ick, who ATE those things?) oranges, and a... highly disturbing looking star fruit.

Those he tossed into the basket, not really going for the whole artistry thing, and decided it was finished. Then he sat down, looking at the gnomes--STAARRREEEE-like. There was something strange about those gnomes...

Jericho's gaze nervously drifted towards the others as he saw them come on in. Shehk and Lizzy where here at least, for people who could probably calm him down if something happened. Shifting in place, he soon turned towards Moira as she got things started.

Make some baskets. He could do this.

It wasn't dangerous at all too. Nodding, he made his way towards the piles of fruit. There were no worries of him trying to eat any of these. He hated fruit. If it were a large pile of meat instead, that would be a completely different story. Looking over all the choices, he first grabbed some caramel apples to add to his basket.

From there, he decided to add some booberries, and a starfuit.

This just left one more thing he'd need. Hm. Pumpkins. Yes. That should work. He didn't know if these pumpkins were usable but the horsemen could probably use some to help boost their population... right?

Fruit baskets. Shehk didn't even know what ..well..most of these fruits tasted like! So she didn't know if certain things were a horrible combination or otherwise.

However, she did take her time to pick up and sniff each piece of fruit to figure out what scents were nice together, at least. If it wasn't the most cohesive basket, at least it would smell good!

As she picked out a few fruits, she glanced over towards Jericho as he also picked out a few things, before she looked away again. He probably at least had a better idea of what these all tasted like than she did.

"None of these taste like a bag of sugar, right?" she asked across the way to the dragon with a small laugh as she picked up one of the lemons, sniffing it curiously before she made a point to hold onto that.It had a real zing to the scent which prompted her to pick up and orange as well. In fact, the pineapple also followed that real zingy scent that was driving her nose wild, so it was picked up as well!

She seemed to puzzle over what else to pick up on top of those three items, before she gave the booberries a sniff as well. They smelled rather tame and mild to her. Perhaps a nice counterbalance to all the zing? She took a moment to smell the four items she'd picked up together to see if they smelled much better to her as a group.

...
.....

Would the Horsemen even care how they smelled? Still, at least they kinda looked nice together. She guessed.

She was bad at the fruit thing.

Hearing Shehk, Jericho glanced to her before giving a rather weak chuckle.

"I hope not. I'm.. not a fruit eater though, so I don't really know for sure. I'm guessing it's all... alright though."

People ate these things after all. Then again, there were those who would eat a bag of sugar. Hm. Well. Hopefully the horsemen wouldn't be offended with these offerings. That would be awkward if that happened.

"I'm..I'm not either. I hope the Horsemen are or they can find some sort of practical use for all of this, though." She'd noticed them picking up some of the strangest things around the school, after all, so it made sense to at least think they'd do something with it.

Lure minipets into traps or something. She had no idea.

"Guess it's the sentiment that counts."

Sheridan had been standing with his arms crossed and his eyes narrowed, an expression on his face that may have made it clear he had absolutely no interest whatsoever in the subject of the class. Snort, welcoming the horsemen, why should they welcome those who had proven themselves far from trustworthy into their midst. Would they have been so welcoming to humans or hunters? Of course they wouldn't have! And yet those they knew so little about, those whose true motives and loyalties were completely hidden had been welcomed with open arms. Well, when (if) the horsemen turned on them, he wouldn't be among those caught off guard.

And yet, for all the grumpiness in his expression, the twitching of his tail betrayed a sense of interest, perhaps one of curious anticipation. The tuft of his tail flicked back and forth, like a cat watching the mouse hole for something to emerge, as if he were waiting to see just what would happen, though if asked what he thought that was he would not have been able to answer.

A brow raised as the 'instructor' entered the room, followed by the parade of gnomes carrying even more fruit. Dear jack, how many baskets did she expect them to make?

Uncrossing his arms, he stepped toward the table, pausing for a moment as he caught sight of Angenora and with a smile walked over to her.

"Hey."

A friendly wave and a hug, he settled at the table beside her, looking over the piles of fruit. He sniffed at the fruit, examining it with curiosity, though he made no attempts, nor did he have the desire to, at tasting it. Not that he was opposed to fruits, he did in fact enjoy them at times, but he wasn't especially interested in trying these at that moment. Now if there had been spookies or cupcakes? That would have been an entirely different matter.

"Think they brought enough fruit?"

It wasn't a serious question, but rather one of good natured sarcasm, it seemed to him there was more than enough fruit here and would have been even if the class had had twice as many participants.

After several moments of further examination, Sheridan at last chose a basket and then began to select his fruit. The starfruit in particular caught his attention, as much in name as in shape, their color he also found intriguing. After that he chose a pineapple and prickly pear, giving no thought to what they might have tasted like, but instead on their appearance, the spinyness seemed fitting to him. Uncertain of what to choose for the fourth item just yet, he resolved to decide that later and began arranging the items he had into the basket.

In the center he placed the large pineapple, while he carefully arranged the prickly pears on either side, one shorter than the other so that the items made three tiers of varying levels. Atop of each of the tiers he placed a piece of cut star fruit, pausing to admire its shape before doing so. The remaining star fruit he place along the base of the pineapple and prickly pears and then stopped to look over the entire piece. Hmm, there was certainly something missing, his fourth item, but what? Perhaps something to fill in the center section. Ah yes, a bunch of grapes will fill that place perfectly. Choosing a rather large bunch of grapes, he placed it in the center of the basket so that it was flanked by the pineapple, prickly pears, and star fruit.

Satisfied, he looked over his basket with a nod, then pushed it toward the center of the table.

Angenora had been wondering what this class was going to be like. Well this was her first real class after all since she had joined the academy. She looked around at the other students, wondering what they would be like to meet. She blinked as she caught sight of Sheridan. He looked different, older more so. "Hey!" She said happily with a wave. She gave him an embracing hug with a huge toothy grin on her face.

The ghoul's attention was captured by the 'instructor' and the vast number of gnomes that had brought in various kinds of fruit. She saw how many kinds they had, but wondered what she would pick for her own basket. She laughed a little at Sheridan;s sarcasm. "Hopefully there'll be some left for us." She added as she looked at the starfruit. It had been her favorite kind, but it had been a while since she had any to eat.

She grabbed an empty basket as she looked over each kind of fruit that could be added into it. She could only put four kinds and make it look nice for the horsemen. She picked up the starfruit with a smile as she put it into the center. She noticed there had been some boafox cherries as well on the table. She grabbed a good amount of them and put them around the starfruit. Her mouth watered when she saw the caramel apples. Oh how she wished she could have one right then and there, but it was for her. She grabbed a few to put into the basket as well. Now it was time to pick the last one. The pineapple looked like it could be something they would enjoy. Hopefully the famine horsemen would since they are almost skin and bones.

"I wonder what's gonna happen when they get these?" Genora asked sheridan after she had pushed her basket into the center.

So, they had to make fruit baskets yes? Looking at the choices, the wolfos blinked. Stared. Blinked. Stared. Fruit baskets. He'd never put one together before and wasn't really sure what one put in aside from..fruit. Or rather, he wasn't sure if the fruit has some kind of meaning. Did pumpkins symbolize fertility? Booberries, one's frightful appearance? Boafox cherries... for fluffy? He picked a lemon out and sniffed it before setting it back.

The gnomes looked at him like he'd been about to eat it. Really, like he'd eat a lemon. He was more interested in the oranges and starfruits. Oranges could be used to make orange juice so maybe they symbolized a fresh start? Starfruits... to symbolize star.. power? Frost in the Storm shrugged, grabbing them both.

One fruit he'd never seen before. It smelled sweet and had a rather prickly shell and stiff leaves at the top. It was heavy and rather oval. Horsemen would like this? Maybe. He added is lopsidedly to his basket. Maybe it meaned... Din's tit he hadn't any clue but he wad trying. Picking booberries, he tossed those in as well. Why? Why not. Maybe they would be a good snack.

Sheridan shrugged, his tail twitching lightly from side to side.

"I don't know."

He hadn't really thought about it, or for that matter really even considered whether or not the horsemen would like these particular fruits or fruit in general. He thought he remembered fruit being eaten in his time on the islands, but he hadn't paid all that much attention to the horsemen's eating habits, there had been other things that occupied his thoughts more than such a seemingly trivial detail. Hmm, perhaps he should have paid more attention.

Fruit basket?! She smiled, happily nodding when they were given the instructions to make one; she had never put a fruit basket together before, but it sounded like a lot of fun! Besides, it was thoughtful of Moira to wish to welcome the horsemen into Halloween with the gift of fruit - with their home destroyed, they must be in need of resources, such as food.

Looking over the different fruits, she eventually settled on four fruits with rather distinct flavors - caramel apples, lemons, pineapples, and pumpkin. Once the fruits were chosen, she took her own sweet time to assemble her basket, doing her best to make it presentable.

She hoped that they would be given the opportunity to decorate it... This basket would look so much better with a ribbon or two.

Not exactly what Darcy had expected to be for her first class but it seemed innocent enough since it is just fruit baskets, right? She wandered down the long tables full of fruit that the gnomes had just placed. Why so much? For such a huge event to welcome newcomers at Amityville, there wasn't many who signed up. Approaching the table slowly and tying her hair in a bun she inspected herself in a pocket mirror. Didn't want her hair getting in the food.

Probably wasn't wise to set her head on the table either for multiple reasons, one being that the gnomes might suspect her of sneaking a bite. So keeping her head tight in one arm she began to pick at the choices that were given to her. So, not exactly knowing who the horsemen where like, she pondered if they even liked fruit. She was so out of the loop it wasn't even amusing. Picking a few small pumpkins she arranged them as her centerpiece as a symbol of her home. Mmm caramel apples how they were wickedly sweet, so next Darcy plucked a few and placed them to the left of her basket assortment.

Two more were needed to complete her job. Sighing as her head nuzzled into her chest she softly whispered. "Who are the horsemen?" Feeling a bit down cause she was nervous to ask it outright for it might come as a stupid question. Darcy's hands brushed across a few lemons. Such a funny shape they had! Placing them to the right in the basket a few small ones. Lastly a bunch of booberries to top it off. She knew that particular fruit right away as she found it commonly on the grounds.

Feeling pleased with her work she slid her basket forward then held her head with two arms now. Scanning the room for someone she might know and also viewing the other students with pleasure as they all created there own masterpieces of food.
