How to Cope with Being Suddenly Famous, Thursday Second Period

[jaegerbombdad]

Herc had been putting off this class, but, well, considering last weekend. "Right, so," he said briskly. "Most of you, I imagine, have family of one sort or another, or close friends, maybe. Someone you care about. And when you get famous, things can be tricky with them. Maybe they think you've changed. Maybe you don't know how to relate to them any more. Maybe they get dragged into the spotlight with you, and they're not comfortable with that--or they're more comfortable with it than you are, and it makes things rough between you. So how do you deal with that?" No, really, he was asking. It wasn't like he'd ever been any good at it. He opened the table to the room with a simple, "Discuss."

How do you keep things from getting weird with your family? Please tell Herc, he'd like to know.

"Not tell them about it?" Flick suggested with a shrug. "Probably be difficult though."
