Sex Thru The Ages, 9/01

Class held two hot teachers when everyone arrived. One was perfectly at ease with the subject matter, the other...

Not so much.

"Welcome to Sex Through The Ages, class," Jim said, far too happy with it all. Maybe to make up for his co-teacher's attitude.

Algren's attitude was just fine, thank you very much. The faint frown on his lips and the fact that his arms were crossed over his chest and the slight glare at the somewhat... questionable ... somewhat "feminine" arrangement of the desks in the room was testimony to just how fine he was doing.

"This semester's course isn't expressly about teaching you the act of." Algren seriously taught high-schoolers just for the sake of disappointing them. That much was clear. "Our focus will be more on courting rituals and beliefs centred around intercourse, instead. An anthropology course of sorts, if you will."

That would be because he had no idea to have any sort of fun with the class presented to him. Unlike Jim. "Stretching from cavemen on to the 23rd century."

"In prehistoric times," Algren said, casting a wary glance at Jim before shaking his head and pressing on with the lecture, "it wasn't uncommon for men to invade neighbouring tribes to steal away their woman to make wives out of them. It wasn't so much a courtship as it was an ancient version of possession being nine-tenths of the law. Of course, the aforementioned neighbouring tribes weren't terribly thrilled with this, and so often the 'newlyweds' would have to go into hiding to avoid the catch of the day being snatched away."

"Which is just charming, and only slightly how we do it these days," Jim added with a smirk. "Just consider a nice--" Space ship. "--car the club and you have the updated version. But today we thought it would be fun for you to try out this method the old way."

That would be why there was a nice pile of foam bats waiting for the students to use.

"Introductions," Algren said, allowing himself a moment to look amused in spite of himself. "Name, class, where you'd run off to after stealing your prize away from the neighbouring tribe. And then pick up a bat, pair off, and practise your courting technique."

Teaching jobs on this island seriously existed for the sole purpose of entertaining the teachers, and fie upon any who ever dared suggest otherwise.

"Well, McCoy's my roommate, and he's nice," she said, indicating him with her bat. "And that's Alex. He's entertaining, but don't hesitate to bop him one if he gets too fresh with you. He doesn't mean any harm, really, he just likes girls. A lot, if you know what I mean." And knowing what Emma knew about Karla's world, she felt a warning was required.

Karla recognized Alex from the shuttle in, but hadn't seen him since. McCoy was new, though. "Does he ever smile?" she asked, taking advantage of Emma paying attention to the other people to try and score a hit.

She squeaked as Karla hit her, and set about trying to whap her friend a few times. "Yes," she answered, swinging again. "But he knows the teacher -- Kirk, not Algren -- and McCoy is much less, ah, informal about these sorts of things. He's a perfect gentleman."

Which, coming from Emma, was high praise.

Or sometimes a complaint.

Karla squealed and dodged, accidentally hitting herself once when she tried to deflect Emma's bat. "So do you want to go gang up on him, then?"

Sometimes a complaint, but only when Emma wasn't getting her own way. Not that she'd mind getting her own way with McCoy, but she didn't want to give the boy a heart-attack.

"Count of three?" she murmured, eyes dancing.

"One, two," Karla counted. "THREE!"
