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.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

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!"

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.]]}

"Well luck me then," she said as she reached down for bag and noticed the splint.

"So what exactly happened? It, well it all looks kinda bad actually." she told with a frown.

((thanks))

"I'm... not entirely sure. The computer in the Danger Shop went nuts, locked us in, and set a horde of robots on us. Sam and Kawalsky eventually managed to shut it off before we were overrun, but a lot of people got hurt. I think Nadia and Mac got off the worst."

"whoa, this place just gets more and more disturbing doesn't it? I'm glad you're not too injuried though."

She sighs, "well I guess we should get on with this then, so erm I don't know much about Europe myself, but I'd guess they're more sophisticated than Americans, I'm not getting what this has to to with sex cultures unless that while 'manage a tout' thing is gonna come in somewhere?" she suggests

((I have no clue how to spell that suprising but I'm hoping you'll get her meaning))

"Well," Pip says. "It depends on your definition of sophisticated. And it also really depends on where you are in Europe. But, yes, Ménage-à-trois is in there somewhere. Maybe something with "French Kissing", though I have no idea why it has that name."

"I guess they do't call it that in France though do they? But yeah interesting point." she says considering the name's origin and considering how much she actually missed French kissing."

"and aren't the British meant to be like really repressed about sexuality and stuff?" she asked

Pip laughed. "Well... that really depends," he said. "It really depends. I mean, in Victorian times, sure. Nowadays it's a little different. You know what they say about the sun never setting on the British Empire?"

Paige looks confused for a moment, "well yeah, but wasn't that something about all the colonies they used to have or something?"

"Well, that was part of it. The expanded version of that saying is "The sun never sets on the British Empire because he doesn't trust an Englishman after dark."

Paige smirks, then her thoughts go to Geoff, "there might something in that actually yeah." she says quietly.
