The Art of Cool: Class 14, Period 2 (Friday, April 18)

How to Use Alcohol to Your Advantage

When students met Tink and Barney in Ye Old Danger Shoppe, they might do a double take as it was set up to look just like a certain local bar. Complete with a certain hot local bartender. Happily, while Tink and Barney lectured, she was muted, lest she interrupt their talk.

"Today is a special last class before your final," Barney announced. "We are here to discuss how the many forms of alcohol can assist you in raising your personal Coolness, your own Hotness, and the Hotness of those around you."

Or it could lower your standards! Let's say you were amazingly Cool - well. Let's pretend you were someone else who was amazingly Cool, like Tink or Barney. Sometimes at a bar all you see are boring, ugly people. You can't stand listening to them talk. You can't imagine being bored enough to go home with them. Luckily, a few drinks made them seem fascinating and cute! When the drinks wear off in the morning, that's when you leave and never look back. It was simple and easy!

"Especially the leaving and not looking back," Barney said. "I have a form letter, if any of you need extra help with that last part."

The best part was that the process worked in reverse. The more they drank, the more fascinating and cute you appeared to be! Not that Barney or Tink ever needed help in that department, but for some of this class, it might be their only hope of not dying a virgin. Get someone good and loaded, and they wouldn't notice your gaping personality flaws or your hideous excuse for personal hygiene. They might think that awful top you insist on wearing is eccentric! Believe in yourselves, children! And more importantly, believe in the power of beer goggles!

"Or, like Weasley, you can attempt some liquid courage to hit on those much hotter than you and then pass out when they even seem to be considering it." He laughed for a moment. "Ah, memories!"

Could they show the clip again? Could they? Could they? Tink loved that clip!

Barney took a thoughtful puff on his cigar. "Unfortunately there's not time, but I'll give you a special post-class viewing, how about that?" There was drinking to be done, after all.

Hooray! Hooray! The clip! And look, children, liquor! This was a very special place! Absinthe lived here! The liquor was very real so they should drink up! And try to pick up the not-as-real bar patrons! Hooray! Barney and Tink had added all sorts of interesting people for them to hit on! Tink was especially proud of a few of her creations. (This meant that the students should probably be very afraid, right about now.)

Barney grinned evilly, incredibly pleased with the horrors they'd programmed into the simulation. "Oh, Ms. Bell, didn't you have a Special Announcement for our most willing to please students?"

Oh! Yes! Did anyone want to take a shift at Pixie Dust this week? Because prom was coming up and Tink hated people and did any of them want a free A in this class that they were far too uncool to pass otherwise? They did, right? See Tink after class! Do it! Do it now!

The evil look was still in place. He liked alternative assessments. "Now, brave students, step up to the bar. Extra points if you land the bartender."

Right, he needed a drink. Faith grabbed the handy bottle of Scotch. Nice classic, and she figured he'd make some funny expressions drinking it.

"No-strings-attached sex, right? You got a place in town, or you're getting a hotel room? And I hope you have protection. You do, right?"

Ron froze like a deer caught in a pair of headlights.

"Room?" he said beginning to take a gulp of his drink... which led to a bunch of coughing and sputtering.

Well at least he didn't pass out this time.

New rule: she was gonna start bringing a camera to work with her.

"You weren't suggesting we have commitment-free sex right here, were you?" Faith purred. "Kinda kinky."

Ron's mouth opened and closed a few times without any words coming out. The effect made him look like a goldfish.

"No!"

Then he blinked. "I mean... not here."

"Tease," she laughed.

Ron's ears looked like the might catch on fire at this point.

He tried to think but was pretty much stuck at just gaping at this point.

"I have a room!" Ron finally blurted out.

Of course it was a dorm room.

"That's a start," Faith grinned. "You haven't even told me your name. Or were you hoping we don't give 'em? Anonymous sex has its thrills. You know what I mean, right?"

She was almost positive he was a virgin, yes.

"R-Ron," he managed to choked out.

And then downed the rest of his drink.

Which led to more coughing and sputtering.

"Ron." Faith considered it. "Ron. Huh. Dunno if I ever banged a Ron. Doesn't sound like something I remember screaming."

"First time for everything?" Ron managed to blurt out.

And then looked shocked that he had actually said it.

Faith blinked, and then couldn't help cracking up. "For everything?" she asked. Couldn't help it.

"Well you know..." Ron managed to sputter out.

"Level with me, kid," Faith grinned, her eyes dancing. "You ever seen a boob up close?"

Re: Get a Drink and Hit on Faith [4/18]

[identity profile] isourking.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
...

"Define close?"

Re: Get a Drink and Hit on Faith [4/18]

[identity profile] neverfaithful.livejournal.com 2008-04-19 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
She laughed. "Yeah, okay. No, I'm not gonna have sex with you, kid. You want another drink?"

Ron wasn't sure if the rejection was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Um. Sure."

She got him a beer this time, and slid it over. "Check it out. Sex only seems like a huge thing when everyone else is having it and you're not. Don't sweat it so much, okay?"
