The Circle of Life, Monday Third Period
Your teachers were in the classroom today! Don't get too excited about it, though. There was just the word 'DOCTORS' written on the board. It was underlined more than strictly necessary.
"It's not my fault that cancer runs in the family," Wade grumbled, arms crossed over his chest. "I assume. Alcoholism definitely. Cancer is iffy."
"Probably something we should find out before we decide we're having kids or not," Vanessa said, through her teeth and smiling. "So let's talk about doctors! I know, doctors are expensive and you think you can just duct tape it up and keep going. But maybe not! Maybe they're professionals who know important things that can keep you from dying! Just a thought."
"Also, don't take up any creepy ass government agents' offers to cure whatever might end up ailing you. Just don't do it. It'll end in the highest grossing R rated movie in ages. And I just can't have that kind of competition," Wade added. "That bastard Tom Hardy is coming for me on that front."
"So remember, kids," Vanessa said, "if you feel pain during sex, you should see a doctor! It could be an STD! Or it could be a warning sign you should address before one day you randomly faint and it turns out you have stage four cancer of the everything." That was an unusually specific hypothetical, Vanessa.
"I have super powers now," Wade stage whispered to the class. "It's fine."
Vanessa turned her entire upper body to look at him for a moment, wide-eyed and incredulous, then turned back to face the class and muttered, "It is not fine and if you ever do that to me again I will kill you," sotto voce, out of the side of her mouth. Then she said, louder and brighter, "Anyway, the point is: doctors! They're your friends, as long as they're not also evil! Now, I want everyone to think back on occasions when maybe you didn't see a doctor and you should have, and how dumb you were being. And if you're a sensible person who doesn't have an example like that, congratulations. You win this class."
