Sex Cultures

Grissom welcomes each member of the class as they enter. There are six sets of two desks set up in the Lab, and each has a piece of paper with one word written on it in the middle.

"What I'd like you to do is take a seat at a set of desks. You may choose a free set of desks, or sit down with someone else. They will then be your partner for the next class project."

"I want you to spend the class discussing what you know about the place mentioned on your desks with your new partner, and getting to know them if you haven't worked with them before. This project will count as your midterm as I am not giving you a 'sex exam', yo., and I will give you the details on Thursday."



[If you have decided OOC on a partner you want for whatever reason, and that person has agreed OOC, just put a wee note on your "sit down comment" to avoid confusion. So if Cally wants to work with Anders, she'd sit down and say OOC: OMG RESERVED FOR MY DARLING ANDERS or something. :) This project will last for a while, but it won't require anything other than in-class torture interaction, FYI.]

Re: Group #2

Paige sits down at the desk, she doesn't know much about Europe really, and doesn't quite get what it has to do sex cultures, but figures it'll be interesting.

Pip takes a seat across from Paige and waves kind of languidly.

He's still a little loopy from the pain meds. "Sorry 'bout missing the thing yesterday. Kind of got into some robot-related trobule."

"That's okay, I erm wasn't much in the mood for it myself yesterday, there's some stuff happening, so I don't think I'd have been able to concentrate. Are you okay though?"

She pauses for a moment "and yay, you're French, right? Helpful!"

Re: Group #2

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

Pip nodded. "Yep," I'm French. I figured I should play to my strengths."

_{[[Pip has a spint on his leg and a bandaged head and probably a number of small cuts and bruises if you want Paige to react to them at all.]]}

Re: Group #4

Anders sits down and promptly rearranges the desks so he's sitting next to Cally.

"Good call, coach. Not like we know any more about this place than any of the others, right?"

[OOC: OMG YOU KNOW YOU'RE ALL SHOCKED. EXCEPT NOT.]

Re: Group #4

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

Cally points over at the table with Bel and Allie. "Maybe the space one. Maybe. But yeah, this one's just as foreign as the rest."

Group #5

[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

The piece of paper says...

Asia

Re: Group #5

[ex-izziebell894.livejournal.com]

Izzie sits down, and starts to fidget with the piece of paper.

Re: Group #5

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

Alanna sat down next to Izzie, trying to make her brain work. "Hey."

Re: Group #5

[ex-izziebell894.livejournal.com]

"Hi," Izzie smiles.

Group #6

[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

The piece of paper says...

Space

[OOC: This is Bel and Allie's set of desks, so the rest of you are stuck with a boring Earth place. Sorry, but not really :) ]

Re: Group #6

[demonbelthazor]

Bel took his seat. Space? Maybe he'd talk to those Caprican kids.

Re: Group #6

[allie-cameron.livejournal.com]

Allie sat down with Bel.

"So do you know anything about space?"

Re: Group #6

[demonbelthazor]

"Maybe we can talk to some of the people from Caprica," Bel suggested. "Oh, and I was flipping through a book the other day. It had a lot of information about marriage in some place called the Draconian Empire. Maybe we can do something with that."

After Class: 2/28

[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

Grissom's looking dreamy and stupid, as is becoming his base expression.

[For IC needs and OOC questions, too.]

Re: After Class: 2/28

[cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com]

[[Just had to make such a bait-y OOC comment, didn't you. *g*]]

Re: After Class: 2/28

[drgrissom.livejournal.com]

[I don't know what you're talking about! *s*]

Re: After Class: 2/28

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

*looks up at the 'space' category*

"You're planetary Rangers, from Earth. What do you know about space?"
