Wilson was waiting for his students this morning with a good natured smile on his face and a gingerbread latte in his hand. There was a spread of holiday yummies ranging from spice cakes to cookies and other things determined to add pounds to your waistline.

As everybody got settled, he set his coffee aside and shoved his hands in his pockets.

"Good morning everybody, I hope we all had a lovely weekend?"

"Okay, today we're going to tackle something that is both timely and which might actually be of practical use to you all in the coming month. It's called, Surviving the Holidays."

As he spoke the last three words, he wrote them across the whiteboard and then walked down to the projector he kept at the front of the class. There were some key points on the slide which Wilson carefully went over in his lecture.

Finals.
Going home for the holidays.
Remember That Excessive Christmas-ness Gets on Everyone's Nerves.
Don't Do Things That Make You Miserable.
Communicate Holiday Plans and Expectations Well in Advance.
Don't Expect Perfection.
Take time for yourself.
Expand the Circle of Joy.
Being ready to return to school.

"Okay guys, for the remainder of the class I'd like you to get into groups of two or more and work up a plan for your plans on how to get through the next 6 weeks of utter insanity that is the end of the semester and holidays in general," it was possible that he had his tongue a bit in his cheek with this one. "I'll be up here making a list of my own."

"What?"

Wyatt made a circle of his thumb and forefinger, then stuck the forefinger of his other hand into said cicle and moved in and out a few times, all the while giving Chris a questioning look.

Chris stared at his brother in horror.

"Dude, you've had that special glow since Sunday," Wyatt said. "Is my little brother finally a man?"

"... Dude, we are in class!"

Of course the tell-tale blush that was creeping up Chris's cheeks no doubt gave Wyatt the answer he was looking for.

Wyatt snickered. "They grow up so fast," he said, reaching over to pat Chris on the shoulder.

"Shut up," Chris grumbled, pulling away from his brother.

Wyatt obeyed -- for about half a minute. "Did you practice safe sex?" he asked innocently.

"DUDE!"

"If you'd quit flailing and blushing," Wyatt said mildly, "no one would know what we're talking about. Right now your reactions are on par with me standing up and yelling, 'My little brother got laid! Go congratulate him!'"

Little brothers were made for tormenting, after all. Dean and Dick would surely agree.

Chris buried his head in his hands and considered orbing out.

Wyatt pretended to pay attention to the lecture for a few moments, then leaned over to Chris again and said, "So, was it good?"

"I'm going to hurt you," Chris muttered, not lifting his head.

"I can give you some tips," Wyatt offered helpfully.

"Shut up."

"The library probably has some books. With maps, even."

Chris thumped his head off the desk a few times.

"Oh, and 'ribbed for her pleasure'? Overrated," Wyatt said.

"I hate you."

"No, you don't," Wyatt said smugly.
