Well, there were still pillows in the classroom, but this time there were also yoga mats. Because it wasn't nap time anymore, but it could be if you weren't a coward.

"Today we'll be doing some basic yoga as a relaxation technique," Jane said. "Don't worry about perfect form, it takes practice."

"It mostly involves sitting and breathing." Cara sounded so terribly enthusiastic about this.

"Just follow along with what we're doing," Jane said with a much more enthusiastic nod.

Which meant that anyone who wouldn't be able to actually keep still for a whole class period could just blame Cara's example.

Summer was a bit distracted that day, with the weekend and her promise to come home and deal with whatever this Gotron thing Rick was raving about on the phone earlier this week was all about, so she was trying to think of a good class she could have that either didn't require a whole lot of effort on her part or could provide a distraction for her distraction. She was really trying to not just rehash old lessons in this class, but honestly? With not knowing what she'll have to deal with this weekend, she was going for easy and, hopefully, informative and helpful to her students, too.

"This week," she informed them, once they were gathered and ready in their little danger shop classroom that they'd only be spending a few moments in anyway because they were about to catch a portal, "we're taking another field trip. And while last week's was meant to highlight how different some dimensions can be on a very basic and fundamental level, this week's adventure is going to focus on dimensions that sort of take an element to an extreme to flip the script on our expectations. And for that, we're going to a world that answers the pressing question of What If Dogs Were the Top Species Instead of Humans? That's right, we're going to Dog World.

"Dog World is basically a world where dogs evolved like humans, and humans involved like dogs, so dogs are the dominant species and humans are basically pets. Which can be a little off-putting, but also, it's kind of an important lesson? As, like, a reminder that humans aren't shit everywhere, you know? We could probably stand to be taken down a few notches in some dimensions, there's even dimensions where people are, like, furniture and phones, and I always consider taking one of these classes there, but I thought you guys would appreciate not having sentient armchairs trying to sit on you. Or potentially making you feel really awkward about eating pizza again.

"The biggest threat we might face in Dog World, other than the giant birds," yes, that was randomly thing in Dog World, don't ask, "is someone trying to adopt you, probably, or take you home, so keep that in mind. Luckily, the current emperor of Planet Dogg-One is actually our old family pet, Snuffles, so I've got an in. He's been emperor for a while, he's kind of a tyrant, not gonna lie, but he's fairly benevolent and the people like him, so, hey, you know, if it works, it works. So, let's everyone get ready, hop on through the portal, we'll meet some dogs and you can ask questions and experience a world where dogs are humans and humans are dogs!"

"Today I thought we'd get some browning on our potatoes, courtesy of the Maillard reaction." Raiden proceeded to explain how the Maillard reaction worked to brown foods, and if you got whiplash hearing a guy who came off as, shall we say, not that bright enthusiastically explain chemistry, well...it was food chemistry, what could he say?

"Now, you have some choices to make here. For this roasted potatoes recipe we're going to use the same russet potatoes we've been using so far--more on the different types of potatoes coming up soon!--and you just want to scrub them really good and cut them into bite-sized cubes. But then the seasoning is up to you! You could follow the recipe, and that would be really delicious, or you can use your own favorite seasonings. I've been really into smoked paprika lately, or maybe you're not into marjoram? Leave it out! And then into our preheated, very hot oven, for twenty to thirty minutes. Because the oven's so hot you'll want to check on these regularly, to make sure they're not burning and flip them around so all the sides come into contact with the hot metal for optimum browning.

"Now, how would you serve these yummy potatoes? 'In a giant bowl, with a fork' is not the most nutritionally sound answer, but I'll accept it."

“Welcome back,” Stark said to anyone who might be in the classroom today.

“Stewart, once again, had the best cupcake last week. Congratulations, Stewart.”

Stark couldn't vote for himself, that would be weird. So Stewart had a streak going here.

“Today, something a little less abstract than last week's winter cupcakes. Today we'll make…spicy cupcakes.”

He had absolutely not picked a theme randomly. Really.

“Spicy could be peppers, or cinnamon…anything you might consider spicy. Curry?”

Yes, Stark would be appalled by certain flavors but he was used to that sort of thing by now.

“I'm doing spicy chocolate.”
