~ 20 [action]

Now, I'd like to announce our new school project. You will be graded for this, of course, but most of all it is a learning experience. All the practical knowledge you gain may very well be put to use in the future. You see...

[She reaches down to pick up a small basket, placing it on the desk before her. What's inside the basket, you wonder? It's eggs. A lot of them. They aren't boiled or anything of the sort.]

For an entire week, you all will be proud parents. These [she indicates the eggs again.] will be your frail, loved children. You may name them, dress them or even try to feed them. As long as your child is still in one piece next Thursday, you pass the project. Of course, one can never become a parent on their own, which is why I've taken the liberty of assigning you all a partner. Both of you will have to cooperate and take it in turns to care for your baby. That is the trick behind parenting, after all. Stella, already being a proud mother herself, is exempt from the project and will be giving a guest lecture early next week.

When I call your names, you will come forth and take one 'child' out of the basket. Once you've all had your turn, I'd like you to take a while to get to know your partner better and make some agreements on the ways you feel this project should be handled.

Ages 6-12:
Kotaro, Chibi-Usa, Nanako
Klonoa, Hanyuu
WW Link, Kyrie
(Saku)Bo, Hikari "Kari"
Yamato "Matt", Rika
Taichi "Tai", Lymle
Takuya, Vivi Aislinn

Ages 13-16:
Simon, Yuzuhira, Hotaru
Karol, Anise
Florian, Shiki
Genis, Kairi
Riku, Seles
Roxas, Shirley
Raenef, Rena
Caesar, Usagi
Sora, Tear
Svein, Rachel
Tom Riddle, Ted

Ages 17-23:
Haruki, Hermoine
Harry, Yuzu
Draco, Charlotte
Atsuro, Terra
Minato, Colette
Alphonse, Uriko
Ryoji, Hero
Sonic, Mitsuru
Souji, Ramirez
Yosuke, Akihiko
Vyse, Estelle
Lloyd, Celes
Stahn, Kinon

Any questions? If not, feel free to start planning child care with your partner. You have fifteen minutes.


[[OOC: The pairings were randomly selected by me, mostly according to age. Whenever there was a third person left in one of the categories, they'd be placed with one of the younger couples in that same category. If I forgot your character, or you see any mistakes, let me know!]]

That's because Akihiko's jealous of a hedgehog.

Are we planning to take care of it separately, or should we spend some time with it together?

So amusing. XD

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, the point is kinda to take care of it together, yeah? What do you think?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
On what days are you available? We can coordinate our schedules.

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
I do patrols every day, sometimes at night, depending. But I can change my shifts around, no problem. When're you free?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
[She's never free.]

Aside from school, I'm not that busy.

[pause]

What gender should we give it? And what name?

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
All right, then we'll just try it out for a day or two, see how it goes?

[...Awkward pause like whoa. It's... an egg. But she has a point.]

Uh, I guess so. You got any ideas right now?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
The egg should be female. [Sorry, Sonic, but you have no choice in the matter.]

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-16 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[He doesn't mind. XD He'll take care of it despite gender or name.]

Hey, whatever is cool with me. Let me guess, you have a name picked out already?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
I actually don't. You can give our daughter her name.

See icon keywords? XD

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
[...What. She just said "our daughter", didn't she? Not that this wasn't weird enough. But all in the spirit of the project, he figured.]

I have to think of a name? Really? Uh, can't we come up with somethin' together?

Mitsuru is taking this way too seriously.o/

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
I'm afraid I'm not very good at coming up with names, unfortunately.

[She'll probably call it "Baby" or "Egg" or something equally lame.:|]

They need to get an A for this. XD

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Then he will... think of a name! It would be like... naming a Chao. Right! He had raised Chao before, and had named them. This was different, but thinking about it in those terms made thinking about this project easier. Have some slight, impromptu headcanon too. XD;]

Hm, a girl, huh? Uh, I had a Chao back home called Kaze. That's not really a girl's name, but... yeah.

They WILL get an A, or else Mitsuru has to cut a bitch.

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
[A Chao?]

Kaze, it is. I know we'll be the best parents in this project.

He's not looking for anything less than an A, so we're good. XD

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
[Here's a picture of Sonic with some Chao here (http://chao.hippotank.com/sa2/images/care.jpg). They hatch from eggs, and you can raise them, make them evolve, feed them, things like that. XD]

Hehe, I think so too, off to a good start! Maybe we should get something to carry her in, like a basket?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
[That's adorable.]

I have a basket in my apartment. Perhaps I should take it home tonight.

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
[How are they doing this? Presumably raising it together during the day some time, then switching off who keeps it in the evening? ^-^]

Sure, that's fine with me! We don't have to go lookin' for one in the shops, so that works.

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[That sounds good!]

Should we meet every other day, then?

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Okay!]

Yeah, I'm cool with that! I think that'll work out great. Hey, can I ask where you live in case I need to meet you there?

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I live in Room 24 of Building 2. And you?

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm in Room 1 of Building 3! Thanks!

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-17 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
We can also meet after school, if you want.

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-18 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, good idea! Since we'll be seein' each other in class too. Yeah, that works!

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-18 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Your enthusiasm is infectious, Sonic.]

I predict that this will be a good partnership.

[identity profile] blue-velocity.livejournal.com 2009-10-18 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
[He appreciates that she's serious about the project too.]

Me too! We're gonna rock this project, I know it!

[identity profile] amazingasa1ways.livejournal.com 2009-10-18 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Do you want to play out some of their interactions or have them all occur behind the scenes?:)]

Definitely.
