[Anne is sitting in 3rd block, and Mr. Piper is chatting to the class about their first project.]

Mr.Piper: Alright class, starting now, you guys will have a project, and you guys have the choice to work with a partner or by yourself... And yes you will have to present it.

[He hands out the prompt sheet for the project, and while the class is groaning, Anne is excitingly thinking:

Anne: (Oh goodie! I'm gonna be able to work with someone on a project)

[On the other hand..:

Oliver: (Oh great, I gotta interact with humans.. And present uGHHHHHHH)

Anne: (Maybe i can work with Oliver)

[The prompt reads on for the class to do a Halloween version of Medieval days, and show it off either by writing or creating something, and presenting what halloween aspects you would add to make it possible in the old days.]

Oliver: (Do I still have a bag of pumpkin seeds in my bag? Dang it! I'm gonna have to get actual food toda-)

Anne: Hey Oliver!

[Oliver notices that Anne is at his desk.]

Oliver: Oh, hey Anne.

[He fake smiles pretending to be pleasant in her presence.]

Anne: SOooo, whatcha doin for the project?

Oliver: uh um.. I think I'll make a sculpture..

Anne: OOOOO COoL, maybe if we worked together, I can help you with the sculpture thingy.

[Oliver shrugs.]

Oliver: Maybe..

[The bell rings for lunch and they walk out.]

Anne: What are you using to make the sculpture?

Oliver: I was thinking I can use Cement.

Anne: Cement? How the hec-

Oliver: I've watched videos, so I think I can do it since it seems easy..

Anne: Clay would be a bit easier..

Oliver: Maybe.. You sure you wanna work with me. I'm pretty bad at presentations..

Anne: I'M pretty good at presentations!

Oliver: OH, well, that's very good news for me then, unless you don't wan-

Anne: Of course, I'll work with you!

[She said with a bright smile. As she smiles again, Checkers looks at him and Anne and stares.]

[Anne and Oliver wave goodbye, and Anne notices Checkers staring.]

Anne: Um.. why you staring?

Checkers: You talkin to Oliver again.

Anne: Ya and?

[Checkers gives a jokingly obvious glaring face and replies:

Checkers: YOu like him dOn't you?

[Anne shocked swats at Checkers once again.]

Anne: stAhp WIth the AssuMPtions

Checkers: Well, I bet you that Pan's above-tail will be in Stash Ultimate at the same percentage of you telling the truth right now.

[Anne desperately trying to change the subject replies:
