fandomhigh | Sensitivity Training, Thursday, September 8th

Guy looked no happier about teaching Sensitivity Training than he did last week. The key difference, however, was that this time he was armed with a book all about this crap. So, prepare to have sensitivity shoved all up in your face. ~~Indigo Tribe style.~~

"Apperently, in order for you all to really learn this cr--stuff, you need to be in a trusting environment where you feel at ease." Yeah, he didn't think that was likely either. "So, we're gonna do a few exercises to build up trust."

He glanced down at the book. "Or look like a moron until you don't care anymore."

It might work!

"The first activity is 'mirroring' where you and another person touch fingertips and try to move in sync," Guy said, so far from impressed by this. So, so far. "The other one is more straight forward, being a trust fall. You fall, the other person catches you. Easy enough. Just don't surprise anyone with 'em."

Unless you film it.

"I want everyone to grab a partner and decide which activity you'd rather do."

All indigo and stuff.

As ya do.

Pick a partner. Pick an activity. Do it.

Hope Guy doesn't laugh.

Who must be feeling at least marginally better about all this knowing that they're TAs.

Hey, it's what he's here for.

My knee hurts.

Jack Carter

Nathan Young

Ironically Jack felt more comfortable doing this exercises here at Fandom than he would back home. Especially if Jo was his partner. In fact if Jo was here, Jack was pretty sure she and guy would be of the same mindset of this class.

Anyhow, these were the thoughts in Jack's head as he looked around for a partner.

This exercise...sounded like crap, personally. It sounded like dancing or something and Nathan started eyerolling and hadn't stopped since Professor Gardner had opened his mouth.

It didn't help that he'd been unable to find his cigarettes for two fucking days and was now a twitchy, restless mess. Nicotine addiction was damn awful.

He was scowling and tapping his fingers against his knee. The chocolate he'd eaten that morning hadn't helped much and now he was chomping down on gum and contemplating chewing tobacco for later.

Peter Wiggin

Peter did. If he was going to have to do trust falls, at least he was in a position of authority he could always abuse if someone got pissy.

Otherwise, he was in a stellar mood. Couldn't stop grinning.

Stephanie Brown ~~FUTURE BLUE LANTERN, NOT INDIGO TRIBE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH~~

I need to icon Blue Lantern!Steph already. WHY HAVEN'T I DONE IT YET?

Quinn Fabray

Karla

"You're tall," Quinn informed him. "Do you drop people? Don't tell me you drop people."

Yes, she was doing a trust fall. It sounded slightly less annoying than the dancing, and she'd spent enough time cheering to know she could catch herself if things went wrong.

"I haven't dropped anyone yet," Jack said after a moment's pause to think. "In fact, I'm really not a dropping thing kind of guy."

See if you drop things in Eureka? Things blow up. Jack preferred to not have anything blown up. Hence no dropping things.

"I'll partner with you if you think you can manage not to start dropping things now," Quinn proposed.

"All right, I promise," Jack said holding up three fingers. "Scout's honor. No dropping. Dropping things? Bad."

And there was a final nod as if that cemented the deal.

William Murdoch

"Good." Quinn said firmly. She was going to trust him, and if he messed up, she'd kick his ass.

... metaphorically speaking. No, actually speaking. She hadn't decided.

She got into position in front of him. "On three?"

Surreal

"Three," Jack agreed positioning himself behind her and... yes taking extra caution to make sure he would catch her.

Judging by her tone... she could probably kick his ass.

"Ready."

Quinn let herself fall into his arms. The thing of it was, the falling-or-flying part was one of the things she honestly missed about cheering. It almost felt too soon when she landed in his arms.

"That was pretty cool, Jack," she said, as she pushed herself back to her feet. "Thanks. I knew you didn't drop people."
