Sex Ed, Monday [2-9] Third Period

Steve looked horribly embarrassed as he started class today. "I would just like to begin by apologizing to anyone I insulted, in any form, over the weekend. I was, like many of you, not myself, but that doesn't make some of the things I said to people any less reprehensible." He didn't think he was ever going to come to terms with the memory of that person's anger and prejudice. And that had been him. God. "Now. Moving along to our class topic. Last week we talked about pregnancy, this week you're going to participate in a practical exercise. I have here nine five pound bags of flour, one for every two of you, because yes, you have been randomly divided into couples. For the next week, these are your babies. You will carry them everywhere. You can name and decorate them if you like, but do not damage them. I expect the bags returned intact next week. As to how I will know..." Steve picked up one bag and turned the bottom to face the class, revealing his signature. "I'm told these would sell for a pretty penny on eBay in certain realities. Don't even think about it, Mr. Madrox. When I call your names, you can come up and get your 'baby,' and then spend the rest of the period getting acquainted with your new partner in parenting."

Jamie leaned back in his chair already looking bored. "So how do you want to split up the responsiblities? Can I have the full time job and then go out drinking with the boys while you stay at home taking care of children and struggling with a Valium addiction?"

"Yeah, that's not happening," Sookie said flatly. "We're doing this evenly. You're not going to be an absentee father, thanks much."

"Fine," Jamie said rolling his eyes. "How about I take it the next three days and then you can have the bag until Monday. And because you're insisting to split this evenly, then I insist on being the one with the Valium addiction for realism's sake."

Jamie had no grasp on realism.

"...who do you know with a Valium addiction?" she wondered, staring.

"No one," Jamie admitted. "It just sounds like something someone would have in your typical household with 2.5 kids/bags of flour with the veneer of a happy family life only to show a disturbing fracturing of American society underneath. Kind of like meta for Ozzie and Harriet but more passive aggressive and one of the bags of flour hiding his or sexual preference for the same sex."

He then patted the bag of flour on top of its "head". "Don't worry," he told it. "We'll love you no matter who you love."

Jamie had no idea what he was talking about.
