271 // Life skills workshop
[ You may have seen this AWESOME POSTER plastered around the dome. You may have heard Aidan fretting about the name and the content and oh god can he really do this? But here it is, the very very first...

LIFE SKILLS WORKSHOP

Since this is the first class, there'll be a questionnaire for everyone to fill out that'll be the basis for the rest of the classes. This is explained repeatedly by Aidan who will be on stand-by to explain what this is about and also direct people to a modest snack table. ]

((OOC: This is set up as a MINGLE and the class itself relies on tagging around! Please fill out the questionnaire for your characters if they attend so I have something to build future classes around! Notifs will be off but if you want to tag Aidan, he has a thread HERE ))

	Would you want to? Ain't like we don't have a lot of time 'round here... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's feeling kind of weird and embarrassed again!] Don't you gotta have some level of maturity for that kind of thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You remember Helix? My ex? [ Whoa whoa ex. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 04:20 pm UTC (link)
	[That just gets him a face of disgust.] I know what you're gonna say and I feel that it only proves my point that you gotta have some level of maturity for this kind of stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He wasn't a bad boyfriend. [ Quietly, because that's something he's not too sure of anymore. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	I'm sure he was good to you, but you can't expect me to believe he was anything but a whole lot of trouble. And you just put up with it because that's what you do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-02 08:35 pm UTC (link)
	An' you're a lot less trouble so there's less to put up with! [ Not even going to try and defend Helix's habit of getting in messes. ] You find th' right person... you'd be a good boyfriend too, I bet. If you want. I mean, 's okay if you're not interested in it. 's just kinda sad I guess, not doin' it just 'cause you're scared. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	[Oh man, he is staring at Aidan with narrowed eyes.] What makes you think I'm scared? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-02 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	[ A shrug. ] Not bein' mature enough is a pretty shitty excuse. Gotta be somethin' else then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 08:47 pm UTC (link)
	Eh? I don't think it's a shitty excuse at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You sure you're not just worried 'bout them disappearin'? Or not likin' you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 08:57 pm UTC (link)
	[... How does he know?!] That might be part of it. [Maybe. Uh-huh.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-02 09:01 pm UTC (link)
	[ Oh gee I don't know. BFF super powers probably. ] Sougo... [ Does he need to wingman you. ] You're a good guy an' a pretty good kisser. It's a shame to not use that at all. Doesn't have to be so serious if you're worried 'bout that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	That's easy for you to say 'cause you're good at all kinds of relationship stuff and everyone likes you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-02 09:38 pm UTC (link)
	Me? [ Hah! ] You know Helix is th' only relationship I've had, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-02 09:45 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah but you're good at making friends too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-02 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	Just 'cause you ain't, that don't mean you can't be. We're friends, right? Means you ain't completely hopeless. [ Hmn. ] What kinda person would you be interested in? Humor me... an' none of that hot bitches, okay? A person you could care about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hm. I dunno.

[He is going to give it some thought, though, even if this is all kind of embarrassing. But it was his decision to come here, after all, to get some sort of peace of mind, even if he and Aidan pretty much talk like this a lot of the time.]

Someone persistent, of course, 'cause you'd have to be for putting up with me. I guess... very kind and understanding, but tough enough not to allow themselves to be used and walked all over. Someone who knows to put me in my place when I need it. A woman who is fun, cheerful and smiles a lot. I need that 'cause, as you know, I'm a depressing asshole a lot of the time. [And as he continues on he starts speaking a little quietly.] Affectionate... and reassuring, too. Women like that don't really exist, huh. And even if they did there's a whole lot of other guys who are better for them than me anyway.

	I wouldn't say they don't exist... just a little tougher to find, 's all. [ And a lot of that sounds like Lacus but that's one can of worms he's not opening today. ] 's a shame I can't take you back home to where I grew up, there's a few girls like that there. Hell, if I wasn't a guy I'd date you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-04 05:46 pm UTC (link)
	I know they exist. I was raised by one, after all. Must be why I like that type, I guess. [Runs his fingers through his hair.] It is a shame, huh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-04 06:14 pm UTC (link)
	[ Don't say "so you want to fuck your sister", don't say "so you want to fuck your sister"... ] Yeah. I think you would've liked it there... maybe. You would've liked our barn parties, that's for sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-04 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	What's a barn party? [Headtilt.] You play with pigs in the mud? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-04 06:35 pm UTC (link)
	Nah. Only time we roll with th' pigs is right before we slaughter 'em. Barn party is more... bunch of people gatherin' in a barn with food and booze. Just hangin' out, listenin' to music. I used t' do it with my classmates all th' time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sadistfaction 2014-06-04 06:42 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds fun, especially if you add the part where you slaughter the pigs. [Sage nod!!!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2014-06-04 06:44 pm UTC (link)
	Wish I could take you back there, really. [ Simple, uncomplicated... life was good. ] Guess we could still do that here, just not so much with th' pigs. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
