Archery Workshop #3, 6/6, Danger Shop, Afternoon

[deadly_little]

The Danger Shop was set up much like it had been the week before: outdoors, targets, bows, quivers, except this time the arrows have the more traditional points on them, as opposed to suction cups. There is no blackboard, as Miho is being optimistic and hopes her students are smart enough to figure out what to do. The sign-in sheet is on a folding table near the entrance.

Miho prowls up and down the line of students, a pad of detention slips and a pen in hand and a tiny, very scary smile on her face. She was initially going to give the whole class detention just for the heck of it, but Goldie said she didn't think teachers were allowed to do that.

Molly shrugged. "I just have stuff on my mind," she said.

"Anything you want to talk about?" She aimed at the target again, this time getting a bull's eye. "Darn it."

Molly eyed her and grinned. "'Darn it' for a bull's eye?"

She chewed the inside of her lip for a moment and then sighed. "I'm not sure how to explain it," she said finally.

"I was aiming for the heart," she muttered, "and ended up too far to the center."

"Well, you can start anywhere, and I'll try and catch up," Dawn suggested.

Molly sighed as she took another shot, hitting the target, but not anywhere near the bull's eye.

"People keep blaming Cam for something I started," she said. "And they never ask me about it first."

"Oh, that's annoying," Dawn said, "why don't they ask you?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly sighed again. "That's what I'd like to know. But, no. I only hear about it after they've already talked to Cam."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"And Cam's too much of a gentleman to blame you?" Dawn guessed.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly just nodded.

"You could borrow the PA system, or have the radio station announce whatever it is, maybe, if it's not too embarrassing?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"If I could understand why everybody cares so much, I might," Molly said. "It was actually the radio that caused the problem to begin with."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Really? What happened?" Dawn asked, still not having a clue what they were talking about.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Sighing again, Molly gave up all pretense of shooting and lowered her bow. "A few weeks ago, I kissed Cam," she said. "The radio just reported that there was a kiss. Several people assumed that Cam initiated it and... were disapproving. And it's still happening."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

Didn't sound much like just friends behavior to Dawn, but she hadn't known about Buffy and Spike until they were back to hating each other, so maybe she was just naive about this. "What's still happening? The disapproving or the kissing?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly blushed. "Mostly the disapproving," she said.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn grinned when she saw the blush. "Mostly?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"I kissed him again at the luau," she said without looking directly at Dawn.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn squealed and didn't look at all disapproving.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly smirked and blushed again.

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"So what're people being all disapprovy about?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Oh, it varies slightly. They think he is going to hurt me or that he is taking advantage of me," she said, rolling her eyes. "And Rory was actually disapproving because we weren't dating right after I first kissed him."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Is he going to hurt you?" Dawn asked bluntly. "Because it really doesn't seem like you're being taken advantage of."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Cam would never hurt me," Molly said. "And, no. Not being taken advantage of at all."

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"So, maybe this is me being dumb, but I don't see the problem?"

Re: Talk Amongst Yourselves

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly shook her head and frowned. "It makes me feel like they think I'm too dumb to know what's going on."
