Love Smart: Period 2, Week 1

[suit-of-awesome.livejournal.com]

When students entered the classroom, they would find it set up like any normal high school classroom, complete with a projection screen covering what was probably a white board. Barney was waiting for students, looking slightly annoyed by his roster. He shoved a syllabus in the hand of each student as they entered the room. When it appeared most students had arrived, Barney began his lecture.

"This class is titled Love Smart and I, Barney Stinson, Professor of Awesome, will be your instructor." Barney looked around the room and sighed. "I know, I know, relationships are rarely awesome." He figured those from his Awesome class would agree with him. "But I agreed to teach this class so as to guide you students through the mysterious world of relationshps."


Barney took a moment and engaged his PowerPoint presentation. Images of sappy couples in love flashed across the screen along with the questions:
What is a Relationship?
Are you in a Relationship?
If so, why aren't you good enough for your significant other?
Are you a good liar?


Pointing a finger at the screen Barney said, "This is our topic for today. I want each of you to introduce yourself and tell us your answers to these questions." He looked expectantly at the group of students. "You know kids, when I feel sad, like you probably do right now as you're faced with your terrible relationship or lack thereof, do you know what I do? I stop being sad and get AWESOME instead. True story. Let's get started!"

Can you lie? [9/7]

Get with a partner and tell each other 4 things: 3 lies and 1 truth.

Jamie sat back and looked around for a partner.

Willow gave a small wave.

Suddenly there was a rush as Jamie attempted to tackle Willow in a big ol' glomp of a hug.

"WILL!"

"Jamie!" Willow hugged him back just as tightly. "I got your message but couldn't come you and you're back and I'm so glad because I missed you and you should've never left and none of these are lies by the way because this is not me doing the assignment as it is me saying hello. Hi!"

There are many things one can miss when in space. One of your best friend's rambles is definitely one of them.

"Hi!" Jamie said pulling back at looking at Willow. "Man I missed you. How is everything? You and Peter still together? Do you have all your highlighters labeled? You weren't hurt by that Umbridge person I've being hearing about were you?"

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

"I missed you too!" Willow said. Since it bore repeating. "And good, yes, yes, and no but I broke one of her plates!"

Beauty sat very quietly and hoped no one would notice her.

Hoshi was looking around to see if anyone else needed a partner.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

Avoiding Karal for now, Molly turned to Hoshi. "Hi, I'm Molly. Want a partner?"

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"That would be helpful," said Hoshi, grateful.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Good!" Molly said. "So do I. Do you want to start or should I?"

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[itsjustlanguage.livejournal.com]

"Um, I can start, I guess," said Hoshi. "So, 3 lies and 1 truth? I have an IQ of 176. I'm fluent in three different alien languages -- that is, ones that did not originate on Earth. I spent my last spring break on the moon. And I have a boyfriend back home named Jonathon Archer."

Molly chewed the inside of her lip as she pondered. "I'm going to guess that... the IQ one is the truth," she said. She really had no basis for her choice. Any on them could be true if Hoshi was from the future or something like that.

Annette was kind of waiting around for Dick.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"So, you think you can lie to me?" Dick asked as he was sitting down.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

"Mayyybe," she grinned. She could lie. She was sure of it.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Alright, go for it." he said.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[misshargrove.livejournal.com]

Hmm.

"I was adopted." Said with a straight face even.

And what if that was really really true? Her wacky parents weren't really her parents?

Wow.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

"Psh. You wish." he said with a grin.

Dawn was a creative liar, but not necessarily a good one.

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[likethegun]

Sam smirked as he sat down by Dawn. "Think you can lie to me?"

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

She quirked an eyebrow. "Think I can't?"

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[likethegun]

"Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if you could, if you can figure out something to lie to me about, that is."

Re: Can you lie? [9/7]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Oh, it was on now. She told him straight-faced, "You're not the first guy I've been in love with, you know." Lie. Huge, whopping, stupid lie. Crushes didn't count.
