one ship

[thehungman]

The next time I end up shitfaced without any trousers on, I'd rather it be because I tried to drink a dwarf under the table, not... whatever happened there.

What happened, anyway? I've been asleep for days. Not the fun kind of sleep with naughty dreams, either.

Oh, well. Classes will resume. I hope you kids thought of a good drinking game by now.

[God, Santana is in love with you]

I take it you often end up shitfaced and without pants?

[thehungman]

Waking up shitfaced is one of the signs that last night was a party. And if there's one thing I love, it's parties.

The missing trousers was a joke. I don't wear trousers, haha!

[straightupzorra]

I like you more and more every day.

[thehungman]

Be careful. You might give a girl the wrong idea.

[straightupzorra]

And what idea is that?

[thehungman]

The kind that ends up tangled in sweaty limbs and bed sheets.

[straightupzorra]

Who says that's the wrong idea?

[thehungman]

Hmmm. Are you implying that it's the right one?

[straightupzorra]

Do I need to just come out any say it?

[thehungman]

Yes.

[straightupzorra]

The idea of being tangled in bedsheets with you is one I am fully behind.

[thehungman]

[ friendship + 15 ]

Perhaps we could arrange it sometime, then.

[straightupzorra]

Don't disappoint me.

[thehungman]

Would never dream of it.

[straightupzorra]

Now should we make some kind of plan or just let nature run it's course.

[thehungman]

That depends. How amenable are you to... surprises?

[straightupzorra]

That depends on the kind of surprise now, doesn't it?

[swordofzero]

[Look who it is, Isabela's favourite student.] We have been told that the coma's are a natural thing that occurs here, if that is any reassurance.

[thehungman]

Always so helpful!

Don't look now, but I think there's a cat stuck in a tree outside.

[swordofzero]

A cat? [Poor cat! Suzaku went to the window to see if he could find it. Isabela why]

[thehungman]

[ Did he just... stop responding? You're kidding. Did he actually went out to see if there was a cat stuck up a tree. ]

[ rivalry + 5 ]

This is why I don't take you seriously.

[swordofzero]

I see no cat.

[He frowned as he read the next part.] Was that a joke?

[thehungman]

Look who's catching on! It must be hard, not being able to have fun when you're too busy saving burning orphanages.

[swordofzero]

[Okay that one stung, mainly because as much as Suzaku would like to save a burning orphanage, knowing himself he would probably fail to save anyone, or have been the one to doom it to start with.] Do you dislike me?

[thehungman]

I dislike your type! Nothing personal.

[swordofzero]

My type? [He really should just... walk away from this conversation.]

[thehungman]

The whole sanctimonious, heroic act.

I knew someone like you back in Kirkwall. She would punch down a merchant for charging a little extra than is appropriate, and take down a group of slavers out of the kindness of her heart.

It was always about following the law to the letter and helping people. Apparently, that also gave her the right to judge them and determine their worth.

She loathed people like me, especially. Troublemakers weren't people to her. They were criminals, ne'er-do-wells. Locked up and left to rot.

I've seen you look at me the way she looked at me, you know. Don't think I haven't.

[swordofzero]

[His frown deepened as he read, because it did sound like him. Once.] I do not judge you, I am not as heroic as you believe me to be. I have done much more wrong than good in my life.

[thehungman]

[ She chuckles from where she's sitting, mocking. Rivalry + 10, you're on a roll. ]

So now you're wracked in guilt? Oh, you poor, bleeding heart!

I honestly feel sorry for you. Because in the end? The only life we're responsible for is our own.

[swordofzero]

[Lucky him, apparently making rivals is something he is good at.] Do you truly believe that?

[Did she truly believe she had no responsibilities to others? At all?]

[thehungman]

[ Pause. ]

[ "Well. No. I freed a hundred slaves and came back for Hawke, even though I had no obligation to help and all it got me was knee deep in trouble. But somehow running away wasn't an option." ]

The world -- Rakuen or Thedas or wherever you came from -- is full of awful people.

Kindness does not beget kindness. Kindness begets a knife in the back. The easiest way to make the most in life is to stop having good intentions altogether.

I don't want to talk about this anymore. It's your life. Ruin it yourself.

[swordofzero]

[If he stopped having good intentions he would truly become the monster everyone perceived him as. He didn't really want to talk about this anymore either.]

Fine.

[heroiccia]

...Are you giving drugs to kids? [Because since when does an older woman actually ask young people such a thing? Only when that older woman was giving those kids drugs of course!]

[thehungman]

[ RUDE. SHE'S IN HER LATE TWENTIES, SHE'S NOT THAT OLD. ]

Of course not!

Not unless they ask properly.

[heroiccia]

[Well...that's old to every teen here...except for him, of course.]

Dude, that's not cool. You shouldn't be giving kids anything like that.

[thehungman]

Let kids do whatever they want.

[heroiccia]

Yeah, that's cool and all. Just so long as it ain't illegal, or gets 'em hurt.

[thehungman]

So, what? Your idea of fun is knitting circles? Braiding each other's hair? Or if you're feeling adventurous, making friendship bracelets using grown-up scissors?

[heroiccia]

No way! If I could I would set up a video game club! Oh! Or theater...or maybe even a weapons shop!

[thehungman]

Funny. I've never heard anyone speak "never-gets-sex-again" so fluently until now.

[heroiccia]

...What are you talking about?

[knightime]

wow
when i decided to check the network
this was not what i had in mind
gotta be careful
theres a lot of hormonal teenagers here
gonna give them ideas
lots of ideas
also youve been initiated
gotta go through a coma to apparently be a part of the community
also wait what do you even teach?

[thehungman]

Not my fault. Casting a wide net means I have to pick out the greasy palmed, sweaty teenagers and throw them back into the ocean. If they're persistent, I'll just encourage them to spend some alone time. Problem solved.

I teach kids how to have fun. I'm a giver.

[knightime]

what if they cant swim
seems kind of cruel to just throw them to the sharks like that

this sounds a lot better than an entire roster on classes about plants

[thehungman]

Not my problem!

Who wants to learn about plants? Besides boring people.

[knightime]

harsh

theres apparently a lot of people that likes gardening and the what have you

[thehungman]

I'm a pirate, sweetheart.

Like I said. Boring people. I teach my students debauchery. Much more fun.

[knightime]

no wonder your class has absolutely no further backing academically
not that it makes it bad
fun is much better than boring classes

[bloodbrother]

When I wake up without pants, I'm not usually too worried about it.

But you were in a coma for a while. It happens around here. It's a function of the system, I think. There's nothing you need to worry about, though.
