Keeping Your Wits About You... [Monday 2nd Period 10-11] Class # 9

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

There were the requisite pastries and warm morning caffienated beverages on hand today though rather than waiting by the desk with a grin on his face, Wilson was pacing with his cell phone in his ear.

When everybody was settled in for class, he asked whoever he was talking with to hold please, set the phone down and walked to the white board.

"All right guys. I've got a bit of an emergency today called hard close, auditors and teaching someone new my job so this is what we're going to do. A couple classes ago I showed you all a movie. Today I want you to pair up and one of you will be the protagonist and the other the nemesis. At the end of the class I want an essay from each of you describing the challenge thrown at you by your opponant and how you countered it."

He wrote this up on the board and then stepped back and walked back towards his phone.

"All right guys, go to it."

Beauty gave Johnny a confused look. "What's a brownie button?"

"You know Brownies, Girl Scouts; my sister was in the clubs when she was little why yes, totally made that up."

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

Beauty forgot about the assignment for a moment, as she was trying to figure out what Johnny meant. "Brownies are little people like fairies, who take up in people's houses sometimes and do odd chores. What kind of scouts are you talking about?"

He quirked a brow. "Sweetheart, you are talking about books. Let's not diviate, shall we?"

"I'm not talking about books, I'm talking about brownies. What are you talking about?"

Beauty was starting to get really confused now. How could his sister be a brownie? What kind of scouting corps accepted girls? What did any of that have to do with books? Or Johnny being naked?

"You're trying to mess with my head and it's not going to work. Of course, I am kind of getting hungry now with all this brownie talk."

Beauty was pretty sure it was the other way around. She put her face in her hands and made a frustrated noise.

"What do brownies have to do with eating?!"

"Don't tell me you've never had a brownie before? Good grief, where've you been?"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

"The eighteenth century," Beauty retorted. "And that's disgusting. Even if I believed that brownies were real -- and I'm not discounting it, just because I've never seen one -- that doesn't mean I'd want to eat one! They're little people, even if they are enchanted. "

...

"I'm not dating you and that's final!"

...

"You seriously need to go to J,GOB's. We'll have a brownie and then you'll smile at me and go, Oooooh! I get it now!"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

Beauty raised her eyebrows at Johnny.

"Did you just say we'll have a brownie? At J,GOB's?"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

Dammit!

"No. You misunderstood me."

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

Beauty shook her head. "No, I don't think so. I'm certain you said we. How else would I be able to smile and say 'Oooh, I get it now!' if you weren't around for it?"

"You could... mail me a letter. Call me on the phone. Shout it out loud?"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

"But...I don't know what a brownie is. How do I have one, and then suddenly understand you, if I'm by myself?"

Beauty totally had him. Hah!

"It's so not a date," he said finally, shoulders slouching.

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

"I won't go unless it's a date," Beauty said, pouting a little. She had a good sad-eyed pout, she'd learned it from A.J.

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

He shrugged. "Your loss. Brownies are great chocolatey goodness." Johnny gave her a big smile.

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

But...but the pout! Damn it, it always worked on her. Obviously, Johnny had a cold, cold heart.

And Beauty was totally going to fail this assignment.

She laid her head down on her arms on top of the desk. "Please go on a date with me so I don't fail!!" she wailed.

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"But if I give in, doesn't that mean that I fail?"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

Rats, that was good logic. "No, because the heroine is supposed to defeat the nemesis in the end?" Beauty answered hopefully, peeking up from behind her hair.

He clicked his tongue, shaking his head. "There you go again with the fairy tales."

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

"But the exercise is based on a fairy tale," Beauty pointed out. "I mean, it isn't as if I really want to go on a date with you."

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[fantastic-torch.livejournal.com]

"Are you sure?"

Re: Pair up and do the class assignment

[comelyhonour.livejournal.com]

"I'm very sure," Beauty nodded. "No offense to you, Johnny, but you aren't my type."
