The Club Fair - Gym - Friday Afternoon 2/5/10

[ihavenocodename.livejournal.com]

It was the day of the club fair, so of course Jean was going to be there bright and early to make everything was set up like it should be. What kind of over-achiever would she be without that?

So, the gym was neatly set up and ready for everyone to arrive and look over what new and old clubs there were this semester.

It's about this brilliant idea I had for sorting out available men would probably not go over well, and anyway was only 56% true. The humanitarian notion had come first. It had just been courteous enough to give dating potential a reacharound afterwards.

"It's kind of a Gay-Straight Alliance only without the campaigning to save us from bullies because this place seems refreshingly and kind of disturbingly free of people getting pantsed sadly and shoved in dumpsters."

That explained everything, right? "Also, hi, I'm Emmett, and you're dreamy."

Maybe 57%.

"I was born in 1881 and I have very little idea what you just said," Jack informed him. "Other than the compliment. I appreciated that. It's Jack."

He leaned forward subtly. He wasn't exactly checking Emmett out ...but he also wasn't completely avoiding it.

"Eighteen eighty...right." Gremlins. Vanilla extract falling from the sky. His Big Sister was from another plnet, so...1881. Right. "Sorry. It's a group for guys who like guys, girls who like girls and straight kids who don't have a problem with that to support each other if they need that, or just hang out someplace where nobody's gonna judge you for it. And pick each other up. " And pick each other up.

He kind of felt like there should be a little rainbow and The More You Know star shooting over his head right now, but Emmett hadn't really planned ahead on how to explain the idea to somebody not from this century. Or even the last one.

Well, technically Jack's world had been in the 20th century (unless you were one of those annoying there-was-no-year-zero people and insisted it wouldn't start until 1901) for two months, but ... it was still an annoyingly long time ago.

Anyhow.

"Ah," he said, a smile twitching at the corners of his mouth. "I'd never noticed anyone here cared, but I can see where that might be ... helpful." For picking each other up. "It's not a problem if I like both, is it?"

"Only if you like them at the same time and the others aren't into threesomes." Saving the world doesn't count. "People here don't seem to care, you're right. Which is--" Amazing and slightly freakout-inducing all in one. "-- awesome. The rest of the world's not this island, though."

"I've gathered that," Jack said, and idly picked up a pen and wrote his name on the list without further commentary about threesomes either to save the world or just for fun, thank you. "I know someone who had to leave home over it. Better than going to jail, but ... I'm very grateful I ended up here."

"Going to jail?" Of course the second he said it, Emmett replayed 1881 in his head and felt dumb. "No, forget I said that. Hell, it was still technically illegal in Mississippi until a few years ago; they just didn't arrest people anymore."

Jack shrugged a little in discomfort. "That's where you're from? Mississippi?"

Emmett nodded. "Hazlehurst, Mississippi, population four thousand and something minus one."
