React. Or pass notes and talk if you dare.

Blair stared open-mouthed at the new teacher and his hologram friend.

"You have a question hippie? Or are you just holding your mouth open so I can check out your tonsils?"

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

Blair shut his mouth hurriedly and shook his head. "Are you in the right place, man?"

"Gosh golly gee, duuuuuude what do you think?" Dr. Cox retorted. "Let me think... If I'm the teacher of this workshop, which I am, well then by GOD, YES! I AM! You sure you're in the right place? Because I believe the auditions for 'Hair' are down the hall and to the left."

"I just meant..." Blair struggled for diplomacy. "...the name of the workshop seems different from what you're teaching. Or were you going for irony?"

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

[dr_snark]

"The name of the workshop? Oh-ho Hippie you're in need of more help than I originally thought. What pathetic desperate person needs to feel like they need to win friends and impress other people when really they should be looking out for number one."

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

[lovechildblair]

"My name is Blair, man and I don't think looking out for number one does any good. You might advance in some circles but you're karma is going to be all messed up."

Dr. Cox chin wibbled like a wibbling thing and he brushed away some fake tears of fear. "Oh gee! You really think so? Gosh maybe I should stop wearing leather shoes and eating McDonald's hamburgers in the old styrofoam containers which I pitch over the side of my gas guzzling convertible which I have outfitted with whaleskin leather seats, ivory hubcaps and big brown baby seal eyes for headlights!"

Cox then straightened up and then leaned over the desk so his face was inces away from Blair's. "Listen up, Hippie. I don't care what kind of love-in clap trap you believe in. Bottom line this course is about self-reliance and being yourself, because if you expect your friends to look out for you when the chips are down? You're sadly mistaken."

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

Blair rolled his eyes during the 'gee-I'm-so-bad-I-hate-baby-seals' speech but he gulped when Dr. Cox got in his face. "Um...okay. Differing views. I hear that. Could you maybe back up a little?"

[hee! Love-in clap trap should be the name of Pippi's next band.]

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

[dr_snark]

With a huff of exasperation Cox turned away from Blair and went back to his lecture.

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

Blair took a deep breath and focused on clearing his aura. He couldn't decide if he should steer clear of Dr. Cox or try and show him what good friends were like.

Tyler thought Dr. COx was in desperate need of either Fight Club, or extensive medication. But he was pretty entertaining.

Cordelia just stared. And stared.

She thinks she might like this guy, even if he is kind of, well, terrifying.

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

[dr_snark]

"What are you staring at skipper?"

Re: During the Rant/Lecture

Cordelia blinked. "Sorry, I was just listening so intently. Sir."
