201--2nd period

Paradoxical Encomium

"Write me a speech in praise of something unworthy of praise. For example...toast sweat. Now you can't use that one. Questions? Ask."

301--3rd period

Reciprocity

"Ok, so...yesterday you heard the lecture and you all gave me papers that missed the mark. How do I return that favor, hmm?"

She stares at them for a long time with her arms folded.

"Presents are nice. So is public speaking and personal sharing. Everyone...give me a decent example of reciprocity. If your example is below the bar I have set in my mind and am not telling you about...I'll make you do it again."

She blinked, not entirely stunned at the outburst. "So you're giving me attitude in return for a perceived slight and assumed favoritism. Maia? Sit down and shut up. You've gotten it right."

Maia sat fuming at C.J., she sat glaring at her for the rest of the class seething underneath wanting to say a lot more then she would let herself. Trust her, I'll never trust her. What the hell kind of class is this, damn Shep kissing her ass. She doesn't like me, she never did, all that crap being nice after Chiana left. Whatever." Maia scowled down at her desk and then back up at C.J. See if I EVER talk in your stupid class again.
