Philosophy 102- Monday- 1st period- Class #3

"And it's Monday again," Jaye greeted the class once everyone had found their seats in the theater. "And it looks like everyone has their right parts back. Dammit."

She hated missing this stuff, and who could blame her?

"Anyway, we're watching a cinematic classic called Bigfoot this week, starring that guy from that show in the 70's, and that other guy from that show in the 70's. It'll be horrible, but hey, it's probably not the worst thing to happen to you in recent memory, right?" Bright side to everything.

Oh gosh, Jim, I'd just never get to sleep if I had that. I'd lay awake all night looking at your beautiful face.

Olive's expression when she tossed that back on his desk probably spoke for itself.

Jim frowned at her so very sadly when he read that note before sighing and shaking his head.

Fine, be that way. No pictures of me for you. What kinda prize do you want anyway? Are you someone who just wants a good ole pat on the back or something else?

Olive smiled sweetly at him before writing her reply.

I'd rather have like, a trophy. Or a medal! Or a batch of homemade cookies!

Jim made a face at her for that last suggestion.

What about me screams I CAN MAKE COOKIES at you?

Your nurturing personality, obviously.

OBVIOUSLY, JIM.

You know so little about me. If I could capture a sigh in this note, I would. You should make more of an effort to find out about the real me.

Jim barely knew who the real him was so he covered it with layers upon layers of stuff he did know.

What about a certificate or something?

I have heard tell of your great artistic ability. If you make me a certificate, I GUESS that would be okay.

Olive was a giver.

Yeah, she was totally generous and thoughtful. Jim rolled his eyes playfully and went to work on drawing this...certificate. He used the memories he had of other certificates and made a crude little seal with JIM KIRK SEAL OF APPROVAL in the center and a weird fish thing below it.

No idea why.

The certificate read: This certificate is presented to OLIVE in recognition of her EXCELLENT OBSERVATIONAL SKILLS and her VERY SOUND DEDUCTIVE REASONING. For this honor, she is reward Jim Kirk's highest honor: HIS SEAL OF APPROVAL.

And then he drew a few more fish underneath it, a picture of a stick figure with wavy hair (that was supposed to be Olive), some fireworks and then he signed his name before passing it her way.

Olive made a big show of holding the certificate out at arm's length and admiring it, clutching a hand to her chest as she beamed over at him.

I am so putting this on my wall. Even if it's not cookies, it's still awesome. I FEEL VERY SPECIAL NOW, JAMES, THANK YOU.

Jim took a little bow, pleased with himself.

You're gonna have to keep hoping for cookies from me because it's probably not gonna happen. I can maybe manage cereal for you or something.

Cookies are easy. You're just not trying.

Olive shook her head at him, obviously So Disappointed.

Oh yeah? Prove it.

Because cookies were not easy. Not to him, at least.

You're just trying to trick me into making you cookies.

Your ruse was TRANSPARENT, JAMES. LIKE GLASS.

No one said anything about making me cookies. You make so many assumptions about me, Egg. It's honestly making me a little sad.

And he drew a sad face and one single solitary tear.

You seem really torn up. How can I make it up to you?

So help him if he said 'make me cookies.'

~~Make me cookies.~~

See, he'd written that and then scratched it out so he was safe from whatever wrath she might bring forth.

Hey, you're the one who said cookies are easy! You should know how to back that statement up!

I can. Doesn't mean I will for just anyone. Cookies are special, Jimmy.

OH YES. She went there.

And I'm not special????

He drew another sad face with even more tears this time.

After all I've done for you!

Yeah! All that stuff!

All that you've done for me?

Olive drew a mustache on that sad face.

I'm glad you see it my way.

He was ignoring that question mark. And he was also drawing some sideburns and a hat on the sad face.

You are deluded.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand devil horns on the little sad-faced person.

Such sweet words from such a sweet, sweet girl.

Jim chuckled and drew an eyepatch on this now really strange looking sad face.

I'm adorable, yes.

And there was a very happy little wavy-haired stick figure now, a bunch of dots speckling her face. Freckles, obviously.

That supposed to be you?

Jim guessed it was, of course. He wasn't an idiot. Very striking resemblance.

I don't have a red pen for my hair. I thought it looked just like me!!!

Not especially. Well, for a stick figure.

Jim put an umbrella in one of stick figure Olive's hands because he couldn't think of anything else to draw.

I think you're a little more curvy than that. Stick figure you would probably put an eye out.

Olive slanted a look his way, then drew some raindrops so at least the umbrella would make sense.

Clearly you have never been in contact with my elbows. They are dagger-like, James.
