There is a collection of bottles and glasses in front of him.

Okay, alcohol and its relation to lifestyle... any thoughts?

Paige smiles back suddenly feeling very girly, but not in an entirely bad way. "Yeah that's what we figure!"

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

Oh, ladies? Does this have anything to do with alcohol?

*raises glass*

Please try to keep on-topic. Cheers.

Paige smiles, "Well if you count the fact that we met in the pub and our first date involved wine, yes it does"

Lily smiles also, trying not to laugh. "And I had first-hand experience with alcohol at the Homecoming Dance this weekend, professor."

Paige smiles at Lily, "we could go on sir, but it might a while! I work in the pub."

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"And I work in the clinic, where we see a lot of the effects of alcohol abuse."

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

"And I spent much of last week drunk trying to forget things, so I guess alcohol affects our lifestyles greatly!"

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"Excellent conclusion, Paige." Lily laughs.

Paige laughs and holds her hands up, "I try!"

She leans in a little, "I could go on, but it might start to look like I have a drinking problem!"

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"Yes, I definitely think that's far enough!"

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

She smiles, "I mean I don't!"

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

Ah, now Miss Evans, as an expert on such matters ... suppose someone were to present at the clinic with a drinking problem. What would you recommend?

*He looks at the label on his current bottle and sets it aside, reaching for another one in its place*

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily rummages in her bag and pulls out a pamphlet (http://www.med.unc.edu/alcohol/prevention/signs.html). "I would go through the warning signs in here," she says, handing it to the professor, "and recommend counseling or some sort of support group."

The professor runs down the list and raises his eyebrows.

Goodness me. People have these problems?

*He empties his glass and puts it on the table. He misses, catching the table on his second attempt.*

Today's my first time drinking, you know. Professor Beebeebeebeeblebrox has tried to get me to drink before, but I never tried it until today.

*He looks at the glass, as if surprised.*

I don't know if I like it or not.

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

That's excellent work, both of you. Well done.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

"Thank you sir," she eyes the alcohol for moment

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

*elaborately and theatrically looks the other way*

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige walks over casually and pours herself a drink. definitely my coolest class so far she thinks to herself

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

So do you feel like singing up ... sing ... signing up to this class, young lady?

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige manages not to laugh, the teacher looked like someone who'd be ale to handle his booze, guess you never can tell!

"Yes please professor that would be great."

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

That'll be wonderful. Just keep an eye out for the essay topic I'll be posting tomomomomorrow, and we'll take it from there.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige nods, "I'll do that sir, is it ok I leave early I have to open up the pub tonight?"

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

Pub? Oh, you said. Very valuable work. Very good.

He waves his hand in dismissal.

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige smiles, "Thanks, I'll erm maybe keep an eye out for you later on."
