Sex Ed, Friday
When the students arrived for class today, they might notice the seven five-pound bags of flour neatly lined up on the desk. Their purpose would not remain a mystery for long. “Parenthood,” Steve said. “Some of you may come from cultures where it’s common for teenagers to be parents, even expected. Some of you do not. So we’re not going to talk about teen parenthood in particular, but rather the teamwork and partnering that is involved in childrearing. To that end, you have a project for this week with a partner. Your co-parent, if you will.”
“I have been informed that these,” Thor eyed the bags of flour dubiously, “are often employed in this particular educational ritual, symbolizing the child borne of your... union.” He shrugged slightly. “That it is not a living child is not important. What is important is that you pretend for the purposes of the assignment that it is. Think about your philosophies and preferences when it comes to child-rearing. It is possible that you may come in to conflict with your partner, even over something as simple as who will look over your ‘child’ while you are both attending classes. How will you solve these potential problems? As Mr. Rogers said, you must work together as a team. This may mean compromising your position in order to find something mutually agreeable.”
“Remember, in addition to your teamwork, you’re responsible for the wellbeing of your ‘child,’ Steve said. “That means you should be able to account for its whereabouts at all times, and it should not come to harm in any way. The bags have been marked so that we will know the one we receive back next week is the same one we gave you. Anyone who cooks their child will automatically fail the assignment.” Yes, that had happened. “When your names are called, come up and collect your ‘child,’ and then discuss how you will handle your duties. Maybe name it."

Re: Bay Kennish & Jessica Drew
Or they could just stick the flour child in a drawer somewhere and hope nobody baked with it, but somehow Bay didn't want to do that. Mr. Rogers and Thor were not teachers to inspire cheating.
Re: Bay Kennish & Jessica Drew
Possibly by putting it in a drawer somewhere. Look, she was being groomed by Nick Fury. That meant cheating when it came to guys like this.
