Interesting sneeze, really, really, interesting conversation

[MoonDuck]

Today, in cinematics, we got into groups for making our short film. I was in this group with 5 people—my best friend, K, the two smartest (computer stuff) guys (who also happen to both be really cute), R (tall, blond) and A (shortish Asian, glasses), and this other guy, S.

First obs in this class today (before making groups): S, this annoying, tall, big (not fat or anything. just... big.) guy was sitting on the chair. We have the cool kind that swivel that you find in offices. His upper back was on one chair, his feet hanging off another. . I'm facing the direction he is, so I can see him. Suddenly, he goes like, HEH' CHUHHH! He falls over. Like, he sort of folds in at the waist, and he rolls off the chairs and sort of collapses on the ground, all sprawled out. K bursts out laughing. "Did he just sneeze and fall over?" I'm thinking woah... in my head, but I'm (trying) acting normal, laughing along, and just nodding.

And the interesting conversation. We get into our groups and start brainstorming. R, A, and S already decided on a romantic comedy, and the fact that we can't have any.. sort of "inappropriate" themes (sorry, Christian school :/) allows me to force me and K's way in :3. They need a girl actress. Not that they mind K, she's the smartest girl.

So we start brainstorming, writing down ideas. We have "socially awkward," "nerd," and "works for Google" written down. That's it. As S is complaining how he hates when nerds get the girl and hot guys always do, Mr. S walks up to us and asks us how we're doing. We say we have no ideas. So he suggests something like, "You could make him have allergies, and he could be disgusting and sneeze all over the place." based off the socially awkward, trying and failing to get a girl thing.

Later, he comes back, and all we have is that the girl is working for Apple, working at Google as a spy, and they meet, fall in love, and have to quit their jobs or something. I don't even know. Mr. S comes back, checking in on us again. "You could still go with the whole allergies thing."

S: "But we're going to have them go bird watching at the end."

Mr. S: "Yeah, you could have them sneeze, and then all the birds go flying out of the trees."

A: "Yeah, or you could have them, like, leaning in for a kiss but then he sneezes."

S: "You could make it really messy, like they sneeze and it sprays everywhere."

R: *fake sneezes (really well, too)* choo! *gestures with hands* "It could spray all over the place."

I don't quite remember what happened. K was just complaining about how disgusting they were being. I was joining her, less squeal-y, though.

I'm wondering why Mr. S would bring that up. Don't think we'll do that idea. Should I be disappointed or relieved?

I don't know, but that's HILARIOUS!

Hmm, your teacher seems pretty insistent on having messy sneezing in your scene...interesting...

He's the kind of person who jokes around like that. He's kind of like a kid who's not.

I, of course, happened to be eavesdropping on another group. Accidentally. And the teacher was talking to them, and I swear I heard him say the words "sneeze" and "the spray" (gesturing with his hands for the latter). It was so weird.
