Sex Education, Wednesday, March 25, 2020
"Good day, everyone," Anakin said, sweeping into class. "Apparently, the new and exciting way to find dates is through online apps, and while you're all far too young to sign up for such things--"
He hoped. He wasn't going to Google search "hooking up with teenagers" and go to jail, thanks.
"--it's never too early to work on," sigh, "--your selfies and the way you present yourselves. Especially in text-based situations, DO NOT SEND WEIRD PICTURES TO STRANGERS. Or emojis of eggplants, apparently."
He sighed again. This planet was so weird.
"So.Think of what you would do with a fake dating account and what you would want people to know about you, then write it up."

Re: Talk to Anakin
Hi, Bus Dean, you were one of her people.
"I'm, like, a little frightened and confused," she admitted, having listened to that lecture in morbid fascination.
Of course she knew what dating apps were but it was worrisome to have Bus Dean talk about them.

Re: Talk to Anakin
As her teacher, there were places she wasn't going to take this conversation.
But there were still fun ways to go.
"I mean, like, weird is awfully broad as a topic," she said cheerfully. "I feel like, if I want to, I absolutely should be allowed to send, oh, say, pictures someone took of Barbie dolls dressed up in home-made, hand-made dresses out of fur cut off their own dogs??????????????????"
Because that was pretty weird, Bus Dean.

But that idea had her giggling.
"I mean, like, it is important to see if your tastes in social media are similar," she said earnestly.

And if she lived in paranoia about her friends and her brother regarding the same thing well, like, that was her business.
Re: Talk to Anakin
"Just fine." The compliment all adolescent girls craved.
Re: Talk to Anakin
It wasn't a wonderful compliment but, like, he'd acted as her dad for Parents Weekend last year and she could totally believe a dad would say that to his kid.
"The internet," Nina said, "is always looking for the next big thing so, like, to stay popular and relevant you have to keep changing with the times and get ahead of the curve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Actually, the more she thought about it, the more 'just fine' made her feel warm and... safe.
Re: Talk to Anakin
"Do you want a partner who would view you as someone to get ahead of the curve with?" Anakin asked, smiling.
Re: Talk to Anakin
Owen was sweet and thought she was pretty and made her laugh, but...
"I mean, like, I want someone who can keep up with me??????????????? But who can do their own thing without me too???????????????? Like, I'm not always around.......... but, like, I also want someone who likes me and thinks I'm pretty and who makes me laugh??????????????????????"
Re: Talk to Anakin
Re: Talk to Anakin
She'd wondered, was all.

Re: Talk to Anakin
"Do you, like, want to see the picture??????????????" Nina offered. "Because it's pretty great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, like, I wouldn't say I want anyone to appreciate the finer details so much as go oh god, why?????????? at it with me............."
