Romance 101, Wednesday, Period 4 -- Class 6

[carpe_demon]

"You're in luck," Drake greeted the class, "today I'm not going to make you sing or dance or chat each other up for dates. Today you just have to observe." He snapped his fingers, conjuring up an old fashioned film projector. "I'm going to show you a little movie called 'Love, Actually,' a romantic comedy that covers about a month and a half of time and all sorts of different aspects of love and romance. Watch, learn, continue to be cynical...but at least enjoy Hugh Grant dancing like a dork."

Watch the movie [Romance 101 - Class 6]

That's not Qui-Gon. And that's not Gwynn. And that's not...oh, just go with it.

A movie perfectly suited her mood today as it gave her time to brood about what she was doing later that day. Sigh.

Re: Watch the movie [Romance 101 - Class 6]

Oh, yes, because Cara enjoyed watching fumbling idiots so very much in real life, let alone on a magic screen.

Anyone sitting close enough to her would have heard a muttered running commentary on the film. It wasn't very complimentary.

Movies were still a novelty to Christian, so he watched closely, utterly absorbed by the spectacle. He felt a certain sympathy for the videographer in love with his best friend's wife -- it was just such a romantic story.

Karla wasn't really in a romantic mood today. Between Monday night and then Rose insinuating that she was already dating other males on radio--okay, not insinuating, but straight out saying--and Sookie still being gone and the dance on Friday...Karla was spending more time glaring at the screen than watching.

Rinoa didn't usually pass notes in class, but it was movie day, and Karla looked grumpy.



Bad day??? Something happen? W/ the ex? It's not the party, is it?

♥ ♥ ♥ YOU ARE FABULOUS ♥ ♥ ♥



Karla would know what that part was about, she was sure.

Ben watched the movie with about half his attention (though he did wonder about the one man's secretary. Nothing subtle there at all, huh?), and the other half was focused on Karla.

Not that he'd say anything first about the mood she was in. He knew better than to poke her temper.

Re: Watch the movie [Romance 101 - Class 6]

Eventually, Karla turned her glare on him. *I can feel that, you know,* she sent, all grumpy-like. *You are distracting me from the movie.*

The movie that she was paying so much attention to, yes.

George was not so much watching the movie as messing around with the dice in his hand.

Re: Watch the movie [Romance 101 - Class 6]

[glacial_queen]

After class ended, Karla headed for George's desk. "Hey," she said quietly. "Got a minute?"

Lindsay, despite being cynical at times, actually enjoyed the movie. Maybe it was because the movie did not exist yet in her time. Or maybe it was because it was kind of adorable.

Re: Watch the movie [Romance 101 - Class 6]

[angelo_wings]

Rinoa was in exactly the right kind of mood for this, dammit. And drawing hearts on her notes.

They couldn't watch a horror movie?

Dru propped her chin on her hand and watched the movie.

With her eyes closed.

Ah! A romance movie! Momoko was more than happy to sit and watch today. She kind of got lost in the relationships and how each story was connected to the others, but she came away from it happy, which is what Romance movies are for.

Yeah, Bobby wasn't paying attention to the movie. Nor was he trying to sneakily nap. Mostly he was just fidgeting in his seat and checking his phone every so often.

"Don't worry, you're totally gonna like her, 'cause she is the 'sexy one.'"

Oh, see this was a cute movie. Cute and romantic and funny, and you were always going to be onto a winner for Angela in most areas of her life.

She'd be over here, sitting back and watching. Nice easy day.

Talk to Drake [Romance 101 - Class 6]

[carpe_demon]

"Let's go get the shit kicked out of us by love."

OOC [Romance 101 - Class 6]

[carpe_demon]

Daniel: Option One: ask her out.
Sam: Impossible.
Daniel: Fair enough. Option Two: become her friend.
Sam: She's the most popular girl in school and she hates boys.
Daniel: Okay. Option Three: kidnap her and keep her tied up in your room until she agrees to marry you.
Sam: It's a route I've considered.
Daniel: And quite rightly rejected on the grounds of...
Sam: Hygiene.


(Sorry for the lame class. Cannot brain today.)

You know, I really wish a Brit accent would just woo Wisconsin women like in that movie.

I could totally fake British.

/dork.

Re: OOC [Romance 101 - Class 6]

[trigons_child]

I can totally fake British, too. Next time I'm home in MN I'll cross the border to see if I can pick up chicks.

Re: OOC [Romance 101 - Class 6]

Apparently, the director didn't realize that Americans would find the idea of "smoking hot women in Wisconsin" to be hilarious.
