Characters: Gambit and OTA at the X-mansion Setting: Afternoon Auto Shop Class Content: PG? Depends on how you take his comments. (Yes Remy can make an auto shop class dirty) Summary: Gambit being a teacher...yeah that still weirds him out, but who else could liven up a classroom setting like he can?
Remy was still surprised he was playing teacher. Sure, he had made himself out to be something nice little find even for a school of this sort, having given some very false resume and equally bullshit references that would have backed him if he claimed he went to the moon and back. But for him to teach the minds of tomorrow? Really? Him? It was laughable really.
But he had found himself getting through Art and French alright...for the most part. He was starting to wonder just why these kids picked these classes. So what if he hadn't necessarily noticed that all the paintings he had used in his lecture for Art History were all nudes. And so what if he might have noticed...it was art! And so what if certain things he had stated in the lecture sounded lewd. What didn't, coming out of his mouth sometimes. Especially standing there in front of nude examples. And don't even get him started on French. Not only did most of the girls giggle every time he stated the word chère, not that he was bothered by it really, but giggle? He was glad that he never did actually go to school.
Not to mention, two of the kids seemed to like to comment on his accent and apparently decided to make some comments about some Cajun stereotypes that he didn't take to. It was only a French II course and these little Canadians obviously were in the course for an easy pass. So you better believe he stated a few words that were above the other students heads, and if these kids tried to repeat them, it would only fall on deaf ears. That and he could easily say he said something similar and that they really needed to listen better. Maybe that was why they weren't in a French IV or V course. But the looks on their faces were laughable. Something he wasn't going to be forgetting anytime soon. Maybe that would teach them not to mess with their elders. Wow that was a weird thought too. Him, an elder? Ha! Not with the way he liked to act.
Now he was in the part of his day that included Auto Mechanics, and really, Remy was a little happy about that. Something that would allow his hands to get dirty. As if the comments he made were lewd enough there either. He could have sworn he saw a few boys taking notes. It's normal to compare a car to a woman. Really. And just because he walked down the length of the car, lightly running a few fingers across it as he spoke of the body, during said comparison meant nothing, right? Sure, he'd go with that. But seeing the looks on their faces, Remy hung his head and sighed. There was no way in hell he was about to teach them about rotating tires today. Not after the questions he quickly found himself on the receiving in of. No, he was skipping that plan, at least for today. If he was lucky, he would find someone to come in as a guest speaker because yes, he was only going to make that one bad fast.
So, oil changes seemed like a better idea right? Start simple, especially since most of these kids never did one. At least until you tell them to ' go and pop your hoods and get under your ladies'. Yes, he literally said that. He meant the cars. Did no one pay attention? He had just compared the vehicles to women. Teenagers. It was bad enough that everyone's powers were all wacky right now too, for whatever reasoning. Well, other then him who was powerless. But apparently he had the power to send teenagers into a frenzy, as if that wasn't something these kids could do on their own. Walking around, he went to see if anyone needed any help and just to generally watch what they were doing, even though he was tempted to just go sit at his desk and put his feet up. But who knew what else these kids would take too literally.
