 [For all that he is obviously doing his best to present his very most pleasant smile and unaffected manners, there is definitely something not quite right with Luvander's expression. There's something urgent with the embarrassed little laugh that precedes his words, and he doesn't manage to hold his gaze quite still.]

So here is a somewhat awkward and unorthodox question, if you could all just bear with me for a second or two. I do realize that this might be a somewhat sensitive subject to some people here, and that it's also perhaps a bit of an odd situation, but I'd really just-

[He cuts himself off, seeming to realize that his rambling is going out of control, and manages a helpless little smile.]

I just wondered... If you haven't really talked - I mean, properly communicated at all - with your parents for something like nine years or so... is it a bad idea to attempt to contact them now? I'm sure it would be an unnecessary strain on them in the current situation, and although it is usually my personal policy not to mind when I make a nuisance of myself, I suppose I at least owe them that much. And besides...

[The words are still spoken rather in a rush, and he seems to have to struggle a bit to keep them from running into each other, and to inject some forced lightness into what he's saying.]

I suspect I am not the only one here who might not know much about what it's like to have a more conventional family. I'm not at all sure how I feel about the idea, and I certainly don't know how I feel about them. The heart of the problem, I suppose, is that I want to contact them and I don't. So I could use some advice. Thank you.

I just got to the mall. The gift shop has pink and red cards out and they're bringing out the chocolate.

Wait, here come the teddy bears with love hearts.






There go the fluffy heart pillows.


... And finally the chocolate roses.

It begins.

We only just finished January!

I've seen you students preparing your moon-eyes for each other with Valentine's Day only 2 weeks away.

So, here's a project for the intermediate French students: you will be writing love poems en français. What could be better than learning to profess your intimate feelings than through the language of love?

[Is that sarcasm? Nah...]

At this point you should be able to at least say je t'aime without mispronunciation, though if you stammer with embarrassment, that's your own fault.

Bear in mind these poems do not have to be all tender feelings and hearts shooting through the sky. They can be maudlin, professing an unreturned love or admitting that you know your relationship is doomed to fail and so on and so forth.

So long as you get the sentiment across clearly without accidentally telling someone you wish to have intimate relations with their horse as opposed to telling them you find their hair beautiful, I'll be pleased.

See you in class~
