Jack of All Trades, Wednesday, Per 1

Back in the Danger Shop, though it was set to the standard classroom setting--at least for the moment. "Sup, class," Hardison greeted, not even bothering to hide his smirk. "So, this weekend is prom an' I'd be remiss as hell if I didn't at least try to remind y'all about the wonders of safer sex an' why it's so important. Which bring us to today's lesson: learnin' to care for babies."

That was right, babies. Not even the slightly older children of the weekend that could at least speak and were generally potty-trained.

"Childcare is definitely a useful skill to have; people everywhere are always havin' kids. Knowin' how to take care of one without damage to yourself or the kid is probably one of those marks of a well-rounded person." Even Hardison knew how to take care of an infant, though it had been over a decade since the last time he'd had to. "So today, you get to learn some important tasks of takin' care of babies an' then you can spend the rest of the hour puttin' those newfound skills to use."

At least he wasn't saddling you with a droid-baby? You were welcome, class.

With a touch of a button, the sim changed from a classroom to a nursery filled with cribs. Each crib had two names on it; one name was for the student in charge of that infant, the other was the infant's and was completely moddable. Around the nursery were several different stations: a bathtub, a changing table, a rocking chair, even a kitchenette. A video started playing on an empty wall, showing the students how to hold a baby, and as soon as it was over, every baby started crying at once.

Uh, yeah, no. In some universes she throws her baby off a cliff (admittedly because she's being chased by angry villagers, BUT STILL).

Raven was side-eyeing the crying babies like crazy and pondering the value of turning into something small and escaping.

She liked children way better when they were old enough to have personalities.
