Apathy Whatever, Some Classthing, Friday Afterblahblahblah, What the Fuck Do You Want, Anyway?

So. George was here. Other people were here, too. That was good. Whatever.

George was here, sitting and listening to her headphones so that she could ignore everyone. That was probably going to last until a good five to ten minutes after the club meeting was supposed to start.

And then, abruptly, she pulled the headphones off and tossed them onto the desk in front of her.

"Why can't people just leave us alone?" she asked. "Maybe I don't want to talk. Maybe it's none of your business and nobody asked you, anyway. Maybe we're fine and people should just fuck off. There. You want a topic? Why people should fuck off. And how much it sucks that they don't."

Yeah. This club was a regular beacon of sunshine. Did they really expect a cheerier topic?

And if so, why were they in Apathy Club?

It was hard to glare too much today since he'd had a fun class earlier that consisted of throwing things at Rilla. He did slouch down in his seat and look appropriately moody though.

Yeah, Jono didn't do 'mingle.' And he really didn't do 'sitting by the other club members' so much, either. In fact, he'd found himself a corner that was adequately near the door, today, and he wasn't going to hesitate to make a mad-bloody-dash through said door if anyone thought for an instant that they were going to try to be friendly at him, or something.

What if that person were Squall?

"..."

How, exactly, did you have a conversation along the lines of "so, your girlfriend's been not-dead for a week, but no one seems happy about it, and I haven't talked to you since"?

Especially if you didn't give a shit about the details and the only part you cared about at all was that Jono didn't seem himself?

"...Hey."

Well, that was a start.

Jack wasn't feeling broody or sullen, which was a refreshing change of pace, but he managed to look aloof anyway.

Jenny was just going to sit in the back, slouch despite years of finishing school, and check her nails.

Yep. They still looked like crap.

Squall wasn't glaring, he was watching people. There was a difference.

"I don't know about anyone else but most of the time, people who butt their shit into my business want to fix me or something," Alex shared, making a face. "Like I'm a car part."

//Mmm,// Jono agreed, maybe a little bitter from his corner of the room, //a bit of fine-tuning, maybe a few replacement parts and a solid smack, and you'll be running right as rain again in no time.//

He had his fair share of experience with people trying to fix him, too.

... Not that he denied for an instant that he was broken, really.

Jenny looked startled when she realized George was talking, and they weren't going to just sit around and marinate in their sullenness together for a while. This was new, and different, and she wasn't sure how she felt about it.

"Because they're stupid shiny idiots?" she ventured.

"People suck," Squall answered. Really, that was the answer. That was all there was to it.

...Wait, not quite.

"Most people suck," he amended.

Supervise? Whatever. Edmund would be there at the back with his feet propped up on a desk, reading Master and Servant Monthly (which publication had undergone quite a few ...editorial changes since the late 1700's, apparently) and casting a jaundiced eye over the classroom every once in a while to make sure they hadn't set it on fire.

"You came up with a topic," Jack said, sounding too impressed for Apathy Club.
