Creative Writing, Period 6 2/14

[idontspeakfreak.livejournal.com]

Yuki stands before the class today looking at them all more coldly than usual. He coughs slightly and begins his lecture.

“Now today I want you to partner up and discuss your basic plots for your stories. Last week you decided the motives of your characters, you want a way to meet or thwart them in the story. Or at least have your characters pursue them. Make sure to note any more minor characters that will be involved and turn in a basic outline to me and we’ll discuss it. I’ll okay it... eventually. And then you can leave.”

“However, before you start, I wanted to tell you something very important about today. Valentine’s Day. It’s a waste of your time. Love is just a fallacy that society pressures you to believe in. You want to know why?”

“The fake idea of "love" sells crap like books and cards and movies and candy. You kids eat it all up. You’re hungry for that feeling they tell you about, it’s just a charade. You think it's something you can actually attain, but you can't because it doesn't exist. It’s just a fabrication to make cold hard cash. Don’t waste your time believing in something ridiculous. Being an adult is all about not caring about stupid feelings like that. Sleep with as many people as you can. That’s all you should worry about. So I hope you all spend your time wisely tonight rather than buying flowers and getting deceived by your peers.”

“Well. That said, get to work.”

((OOC: Feel free to handwave, but as always, real material means real responses and don't hesitate to call his bluff. Hah. Or TRY to. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!))

Chat about your plots and/or goof around.

Hamlet looked around for someone to partner up with.

Angela took a seat near Hamlet. "Want to work together?"

Re: Partners

"Sounds good to me," Hamlet said, moving over slightly to make it more convenient for group work. "What kind of story are you working on? I think mine is likely to end up with most of the characters dying."

Turtle had something more important to accomplish before she worried about partnerwork. If she couldn't get detention from Mr. Yuki, she'd really have to pull out the stops and do something extravagant, and she quite frankly didn't have the energy.

So his little anti-love speech was accented by a few spitballs. Turtle really wished she had better aim...

"I think someone has issues," Jake whispered to Turtle.

Re: Partners

Turtle smirked a little, slumping in her seat as she carefully tried to aim another spitball toward Yuki's head and then sent it sailing to miss, but hopefully it was still noticeable. "No kidding," she responded, idly tearing off another slip of paper for the next. "But he does have a point. Valentine's Day is one of the key hot holidays for sales, bested only by Christmas and Mother's Day."

"Thanks, by the way," she added, with a smirk and a little tilt of her head to show him how she'd weaved the rose he'd gotten her into her braid. At least, she was pretty certain it was him. She was certainly clever enough to deciepher who JGjr could be.

Nova was a bit surprised at Yuki's retreat from the lesson plan. Nova didn't know too much about Valentine's Day. There was only so much you could learn when you're a soul in a piece of candy in someone's storage room. Moving away from the teacher's rant, Nova thought about his story and making a good plot.

Get okayed by Yuki

Time to face the music...

Talk to Yuki

If you're feeling up to the challenge of course.

After class was over and all the students were gone, Wade ambled into the classroom with a present (http://www.forget-me-notgiftbaskets.com/chocolateaffairval95C.jpg) for his roommate.

Re: Talk to Yuki

[idontspeakfreak.livejournal.com]

Yuki looks at him. He tries to look mean. He tries to look like he totally doesn't care. Or like it. Damn sweettooth! Ruining his masculinity! "Please don't say something like "Be my valentine.""

Re: Talk to Yuki

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

"Hell no, I like the women." He held out the bouquet of candy. "Happy Valentine's Day, roomie."

Nadia was never one to keep quiet about a subject she had an opinion on. She headed up to Yuki's desk. "I agree completely about the whole love thing. It's a total lie."

Re: Talk to Yuki

[idontspeakfreak.livejournal.com]

Yuki nods. "Good for you Santos. Get them before they get you. If you hold all the cards then you can't lose."

Re: Talk to Yuki

Chuck brought a box into Yuki's classroom.
"Hey, Yuki. I baked some cookies and cupcakes for my class, and I had some extras. Want 'em?"
Nooo, he hadn't made extras on purpose and kept them in his office so that the bottomless teen stomachs wouldn't gobble them up. Don't be silly.

Re: Talk to Yuki

[idontspeakfreak.livejournal.com]

Yuki looks up at him with a slight smile. "Thanks. Sorry I haven't stopped by."

OOC

I used the kissy icon above just for cuteness that Yuki is currently lacking in his lecture.

Re: OOC

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Aww, does Wade need to get him liquored up again?

Re: OOC

[idontspeakfreak.livejournal.com]

He'll make out with him next time *fistshake*
