Study Hall -- Wednesday, September 14th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Wednesday's study hall, kids. You'll be happy to know that the gremlin infestation in the study hall has moved on, but unhappy to find out that they've moved onto the cafeteria.

Today's lunch special is chicken. At least, that's what the cafeteria staff told me it was.

A few announcements:

-- An open house for parents is tentatively scheduled for the last weekend in October. All parents, guardians, legal representation, police escorts, and responsible deities may attend, under another RP journal or your own.

-- A suggestion box has been placed outside my office. To the person who already left the note with a question about having as our school mascot a game cock ... no, I don't think Lee has the time for that. Please quit teasing him before I find a fabulous gay teenage-boy orgy in the utility closet a crying Adama in my office. (OOC: For the record, I was kind of thinking the suggestion box could be there for any high-school type stuff we could do. :))

"For what? Doing that to an actual breathing guy?" Parker hates explaining this crap. It goes against any religion she might once have had. "Maybe. But how are you going to get him to let you?" She grimaces, remembering Fischer's request of earlier in the day. "Okay, with some guys, that's not a problem. Most guys. Many men." She pinches her nose, feeling herself getting off on a tangent. "I don't think Adama's one of them, that's part of the problem."

"Tam, I'm trying to say, that knowing the middle of a sex act is not at all helpful when you don't know the beginning or the end of how to get there!" She hastily adds, "And you're not getting that out of my head, either."

"I'm not asking to," River says quietly. "But... I mean... how's that class going to help with that? How's it going to help with getting him out of my head?"

And again, for about the fifth time this week, Parker feels in over her head. Why me? Why couldn't I still be at St. Christina's Academy for Spontaneous Self-Immolation, with the other girls who read Flowers in the Attic at twelve?

"Tam, I don't know about the inside of your head. What I do know is that perspective is good. Right? Knowledge is power. You used my memory, for a little while, to keep Adama's lusty brain aneuryisms out of yours. They're not going to let you *have* sex in that class--" I don't think. Hunh. Must check with Valentine. "--but at least you'll be able to... I dunno, keep it under control." She rolled her eyes. "And maybe, find someone you want to do those things to, instead of Adama? Jesus. When did I turn into Dear Abby for the Disneyfied set?"

"Beats the hell out of me," River sighed. "The problem is... well, there is somebody who seems interested. And he's attractive, in a way. It's just, um, he's... evil (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/49819.html?thread=2003099#t2003099)."

She frowned at the thought. "And I've had enough pain in my life without actively looking for more."

This was going nowhere.

"Look, evil guys should definitely be avoided." Grimacing, Parker muttered, "And so should the nice guys, if you're judging by Sun and Valentine's experience."

"My point is-- my point is--" Parker flailed for a moment, then blurted out in a low, intense whisper, "Find somebody *else* who's not evil and have the sex, get a vibrator and play along with Adama, or tell him that if he doesn't get laid you're going to jump him! I don't know! Okay? That's the best I can come up with!"

River smiles crookedly. "I'd say that's good advice. Um... just one thing, then. Do you know if Mistress Inara's (http://www.livejournal.com/users/serra_inara/) would carry that sort of thing?"

Parker blinks.

And then laughs, a real laugh, not the hyena-cackles of amusement that she was chortling at Crichton's expense earlier this week. People turn and stare.

When she gets herself back under control, still giggling, she nods. "I pretty much guarantee it. Ahem. Yes." Her mouth twitches, and she says, deadpan, "Need a recommendation on a model?"

A blush slowly rises through River's pale features as she smiles impishly. "I think that might be a good idea, yes."

Snickering, Parker leaned in, and started to detail some of the "added features" River should look for.

("...And never get one that runs on batteries only. Trust me on that.")
