Applied Inventiontronics, Perid 4 - Week 6

[a-no-brainer.livejournal.com]

Glitch was at the front of the class again today, and on each desk were a few sheets of clean, un-lined paper and two pencils.

"Today, you're going to be working on the look of your inventions. For the first half of the class, I want you to sketch out a design. It doesn't have to be too detailed, but, the idea is that you'll get a feel for how it will all come together and look when it's done. Remember things like functionality and overall aesthetic appeal."

He smiled reassuringly at them, because this next part he was afraid they wouldn't really like.

"The second half of class, you'll be showing your sketches to your classmates and critiquing each other." There was a stern look before he continued with, "Nicely, please."

A moment, then, as he looked at them a bit expectantly before he realized he hadn't told them yet to begin.

"Oh, uhm, right. Go ahead. Begin!"

"I just don't know what to say," he admitted. "But you don't have to do anything you don't want to."

That was important. He could say that.

"In any case," he said, "I don't want you to worry about monopolizing my time. I think I've been pretty clear that you're welcome to it. All of it. As far as I'm concerned, you're pretty much always going to be my top priority."

He stilled then ever so slowly looked at Andrew.

His hand squeezed Andrew's.

His other hand held onto the broom to make sure it didn't move. And to make sure he didn't float right out of the chair.

"So you're going to come take up all my time tonight, yes?" he asked, smiling.

He nodded almost too fast.

"And I don't think I'll share," he said after a moment.

"You don't have to share. It's kind of your right as the boyfriend," he said.

He wondered if Professor Ambrose would get upset if they sat there holding hands for the rest of class.

"It comes with rights?"

He looked pleased and couldn't help but pull Andrew's hand up for a kiss.

"Lucky me."

"It comes with all kinds of perks," he said. "I'm not even sure what they all are, to be honest with you, but I have faith you'll figure them out over time."

"I'm sure I will," though he looked up with a faintly guilty look. "After class, though."

"Right, of course," Andrew agreed. "We should probably do like work or something now."

He flipped open his notebook and picked up a pin.

"Probably."

But he patted Andrew's knee before he got back to work.
