301--Friendship

[The desks are all gone, the room is open. There are snacks at the front of the room]

Today we are going to touch. Friendship and intimacy is often conveyed through non-sexual sensual experience. We hug, we kiss, we lean on one another [Looks at Chip]...and we express our closeness in a miriad of ways, everyday.

Ok, so as always, no forced participation, but please move around the room talking to one another and make physical contact in some way. Skin to skin...for example, holding hands, would be best...but do only what you are comfortable with [Looks at Rory]. I'm in on this too, so don't feel like I'm putting you on the spot.

Oh, and just a note...I don't care about your grades in other classes, and whatever you may have been commanded to do by another ethical student or instructor is null and void inside this classroom.

Ok, gang. Go.

Rory smiles, and sets her coffee down.

She's in a very good mood, though she's not going to share why unless asked.

She looks around for someone to talk to.

*Jack walks up to her* Good morning, Rory. *he offers his hand* No zapping at all this time, right?

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

Rory grins and takes his hand. "No zapping, yay! How're you?"

[notcalledlizzie.livejournal.com]

"Hey, Rory," Elizabeth smiles at her. She still looks tired.

[dbiers.livejournal.com]

"Hey Rory," D'anna smiles and extends a hand in greeting. "How's things going?"

[miss-monochrome.livejournal.com]

Hey, Rory. ::smiles:: Can we talk after class?

*Lindsey very briefly wonders if he could get away with smacking Harkness as contact. Instead, he grabs something edible from the front of the room and looks around for a minute.*

[anextimeagent.livejournal.com]

Hey, no hard feelings, right? Shake hands on it.

[dbiers.livejournal.com]

After retrieving her coffee, D'anna heads over towards Lindsey. "Hey Linds."

::in a much better mood than she's been in the past couple days, Chiana grabs something to eat and then looks around for someone to talk to::

[Offers both her hands] Chiana, will you take my hands?

Sydney looks around the room, this is an interesting activity indeed.

Veronica walks over to Sydney.

"Hey," she says smiling. "You're Sydney, right? I'm Veronica. I met a friend of yours the other day."

D'anna scrunched up her face for a second in reaction to the assigned topic but, with a sigh, got down to scribbling in her notebook.

Giving thanks to the powers that be for sensible instructors, D'anna set down her coffee and joined the rest of the class in milling around.

[limps in a few minutes late, finds a desk in back and lays crutches in the aisle, against the desk where they won't trip anyone.]

Sorry I'm late. *produces Doctor's note* Here's proof that I'm a gimp and that I was in the hopsital at the end of last week.

Speaking of the hospital, Parker would like me to get any handouts and notes she needs as she's there now.


[Business taken care of, Shep jots down some notes about how a friend is someone who gets your back even when you don't want them to, yadda, yadda, yadda. Shoehorns in a reference to a childhood friend who was there for him when his mom died.]

Logan walks in with Allie, carrying her books, and leads the way to two empty seats together.

[allie-cameron.livejournal.com]

Allie blushes slightly when she hears the days assignment. She turns to Logan.

"We should be able to do this I guess," she says, holding out her hand.

Anya looks around the room for someone she deems suitable for the project. Secretly, she's hoping O'Neill will show up and pick her as a partner.

[2ls-in-oneill.livejournal.com]

Jack sees Anya standing around and suddenly has an idea. He walks over to her until he's face-to-face and smiles at her. He then suddenly drops to his knees and wraps an arm around her legs.

"Please forgive me! Don't kill me!" He wails dramatically, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Please!" He leans back a little, still clutching her legs and speaks in a more appropriate tone. "Too dramatic?"

*DEATH composes a speech about his horse, Binky, and how he is much more effiecent than the skeletal horse previous, which kept having to be re-wired together. Real friends also don't set the stable on fire.*

Piper wanders into class, watching the other students interact.

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

Veronica notices Piper and, after saying bye to Sydney, walks over.

"Hey!"

*Jack walks in and sees the tables pushed back again*

Aw crap.
