How to Be a Complete Bitch Without Trying, Workshop 3, Period 2 (Monday, July 21)

[tinkerbitch.livejournal.com]

When the students trickled into class today, they would probably be surprised to see that Tink and Jean-Paul were both already there. They had shown up early, instead of being fashionably late for once. Well. Being predictable was not very chic, now was it?

More importantly, Tink and Jean-Paul were very engrossed in a conversation of their own which had nothing to do with the pathetic, silly children that they were supposed to be teaching.

As Jean-Paul and Ms. Bell continued their very important conversation about her shoes and his hair, the students might notice that on the blackboard behind them, words had been written. These words, in fact: IGNORE THOSE LESS IMPORTANT THAN YOU. For the students capable of putting two and two together and getting four, this might explain a few things.

Students should, of course, be forewarned that having their own conversations would constitute ignoring those more important than themselves, and thus a shocking display of rudeness. The less important just had to suck up and sit quietly and wait their turn.

Or, of course, they could interrupt their professors to explain that they had, in fact, gathered the point of this week's lesson. Good luck with that one ...

You are bored. You are ignored. Le sigh.

Talk Amongst Yourselves (7/21)

Know that you may very well be lectured for your horrible rudeness. You unimportant things, you.

Toby watched the teachers talk with glazed-over eyes. He was just happy to be himself again.

Lee threw a piece of paper at Toby.

"Are you all right?" Agnes asked.

Liir was far too pleased with the weekend to much care about the 'important' conversation. He was watching, but he was also smiling in amusement.

Was it at the teachers? Probably not. But it might have looked that way.

Agnes was actually pretty amused by the topic, and wondered what Granny would make of it. She was a witch, so theoretically everyone was less important than her. And ignoring them was exactly the opposite of her job description.

Your Assignment, Should You Choose To Accept It (7/21)

[tinkerbitch.livejournal.com]

Interrupt Tink and Jean-Paul's fabulous conversation on style and bitchery to give them the boring, stupid, worthless information that you learned this week's lesson. Why on earth would you think this is a good idea?

Agnes didn't interrupt them, but she DID try to wander over their direction as unobtrusively as possible and listen to their conversation.

Wait It Out (7/21)

[tinkerbitch.livejournal.com]

Spend class bored, ignored, and unloved. Wait for Tink and Jean-Paul to finish their conversation and pay attention to you. (HINT: they're not going to.)

As soon as Ron saw that he was being ignored, he just got up and headed for the door.

He had more important people in his life who needed to ignore him.

Excuse her? Excuse her? Did he not see that they were talking up here? They were! Talking! And he was going to get up and leave!? This was class! He was being very rude! He had no manners at all and his grandfather was going to be very disappointed! Sit that butt down, Mister, and learn something!

Warren wasn't going to waste his time by attempting to speak to the fairy and the pixie.

Instead, he was going to waste his time by perfecting his scowl at the fairy and the pixie.

Lee thought about going to sleep. That would portray boredom, right? Maybe that he was bored by them?

He tried that tact and faked sleep.

Oh, Liir was tops at dealing with this. Really, this whole class seemed to be an exercise in homesickness.

He didn't ignore them. He waited for a few minutes, considered his options carefully, and finally walked up to slip a small, half-slice of spiced chocolate brownie as well as a very small bottle of rum from his trip yesterday onto the front desk. He was well skilled at this particular tactic, and so they very well might completely ignore him and miss the offering until he was back at his desk.

Afterwards, he slipped right back and returned to his thoughts. After all, there wasn't anything wrong with just taking a little time out to think, now, was there?

And he would probably end up ignoring others just as a side-effect.

Tink noticed the brownie and bottle of rum, eying both with some measure of uncertainty. She didn't like the idea of eating anything that students gave them, especially after that canary nightmare that simply didn't happen.

Jean-Paul was welcome to take them, if he liked, but she was going to pass.

Aravis simply decided to find something better to do and completely tuned out both teachers, and pulled out a book to flip through.

That certainly communicated her feelings well.

Cimorene waited about five minutes for something to happen, and then pulled out a book and settled down to read.

Her shoes and his hair are much more interesting than you. It's the truth.

Your Illustrious TA (7/21)

[tinkerbitch.livejournal.com]

He will probably ignore you, as you are less important than he is. (He is the TA, you know.)

Re: Your Illustrious TA (7/21)

Chuck was there. And ignoring everybody.

Re: Your Illustrious TA (7/21)

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

Something was left for Chuck as well: a perfectly normal looking orange. Well, not just normal. Very delicious looking.

The fact that it would taste like bacon when he bit into a slice?

Everybody loves bacon, right?

Yes, your assignment is to either interrupt Tink and Jean-Paul and be lectured for it, or spend class bored out of your mind while they ignore you.

Every week, this class veers closer to its real topic: Abuse 101.
