Adulting 101- Monday- 2nd period
Kitty had been here long enough to know what was up today, and that also meant she had to scrap her class idea because she knew people wouldn't be paying attention.
"Good morning, the island is messing with us again," Kitty greeted everyone when they got to the classroom. "If you're having all these weird feelings and can't focus, you're not the only one, and because of that, you get to have a quick and dirty sex ed talk." Sure, she got pregnant last year by accident, but still! Also she probably shouldn't have used that phrasing. Anyway here, she had handouts to give you all. "Sex is totally natural and nothing to be embarrassed about, but it is something you should be really careful about. This is info on the different types of birth control. At your age, girls might already be on the pill, and everyone should be using condoms, every time, to protect against sexually transmitted infections. You can grab some for free on your way out, or get them at the clinic, or they're cheap at the store. You should still be using birth control even for oral sex. Remember that if you are going to be doing anything, make sure to get enthusiastic consent. If they're not into it, if they tell you no, or stop for any reason, that's it. Done. And don't feel pressured to do anything. Your body's going to do enough of that as it is. If you don't want to, that's totally fine."
And then Kitty went behind her desk, and pulled up the carrier she'd had on the floor, setting it on the desk. "And to drive home the fact that these things have consequences, meet my baby. This is Lexi. She's five months old next week. She's learning to sit up and roll over and she might mimic you a little. You're also going to watch her for the rest of the class period. Everything you might need should be in the diaper bag. All you have to do is get her to the end of class without breaking her. Have fun with that."
Totally unplanned, as soon as Kitty headed into the hall, Lexi started crying. Step up, kids.

Listen to the lecture
Re: Listen to the lecture
So this sort of thing really shouldn't be bothering Astrid. She'd gotten variation of these lectures many times before (though always with Ingrid's most tantamount rule for sexual liasons being emphasised, a rule that Ms. Pryde-Barton was clearly not including: never let a man spend the night, a rule that Ingrid herself occasionally forgot about). But it kind of was. Maybe it was because it was so basic, so to-the-point, so utterly devoid of anything that existed in the amorphous, emphemeral cloud of sensuality that Ingrid cultivated and defined Astrid's perceptions thus far, that it wound up being so...
...um...
...effective? Either way, whatever it was, at least it was short, and Astrid just hoped that whatever was going on with her would pass just as quickly. She understood that it was probably just being fifteen and hormones and that was it, but that understanding didn't make it any less uncomfortable.
Watch Lexi
Do not let Beaker near the baby.
Re: Watch Lexi
"Uh... Hi, Lexi..."
Paying attention to the baby would be a great break from paying attention to how much he hated this exact week.
Re: Watch Lexi
Bold move, though, teacher, she thought, leaving her baby in a classroom of kids that included Beaker.
Talk to Kitty
OOC
Seriously don't let Beaker near the baby.
