Literature- Wednesday- 2nd period

[puppyinacup.livejournal.com]

Jess didn't have the first day nerves that she had the first time she taught a class here. This time she was all too happy to watch everyone show up in the classroom and hope that they had signed up on purpose.

"Good morning, everybody," she greeted them. "I'm Miss Day, and this is Literature 102. It's not the first time in my class for all of you, and for those of you who are new, you will be reading, you will be writing book reports, and I will try to make it as bearable as possible for you." Sometimes it might involve costumes! "So today we're going to take it kind of easy. We're going to do introductions, and hopefully you're not all completely sick of them yet, where you tell everyone your name and what you like to read. And then when we're through with that, I want you to find someone else in class to talk to and tell them why you like to read it.

"And then on your way out, grab a copy of the meta for Emma! Read it for next week, we're going to talk about it."

"My name is Liara T'Soni," Liara offered, sounding perhaps way too solemn for a student in a high school literature class. "I enjoy non-fiction, especially with regards to archaeological advancements."

Wrong kind of books, hun.

"Jim Kirk." Present and slightly hungover. Stupid moodiness. "And as long as the book's entertaining and not mind numbingly boring, I'll read it. Not too picky when it comes to books."

"I'm Jessica Drew, hi," Jessica said. "I really like more sciencey things, whether its sci fi/fantasy or science non-fiction. But I'll read just about anything."

"I'm Gert Yorkes. Lately I've been reading less fiction and more random nonfiction books on subjects I don't know anything about, but I like fiction too."

"Cosette," she said, once again forgetting to add the surname. "I haven't much idea what I like to read yet. That is, I've read quite a bit of history --" no, she hadn't, because history by the convent school's standards was not history by most people's standards -- "and the like, but we only had a few books with stories in them. But I'd like to find out."

"Scott McCall, and... I really like the Y-People?" he said with a shrug. What, comic books totally counted as reading. There were words! And stories!

"I'm Rilla Blythe," Rilla said with a slightly shy smile, "and I like novels with happy endings, and poetry."
