Friday Essay Test!

[rolanni]

OK, everybody pipe down, turn off your cellphones, take those buds outta your ears -- yes, you over in the corner, I'm talking to YOU! -- and you there, close that math book and I don't see it, right? Do that on your own time.

Everybody awake?

Good.

Here's the assignment:

Describe, in as much detail as possible, Cheever McFarland. You may be as concise or verbose as you like -- but be warned! If I get bored with your exposition, I'll stop reading.

What's that?

No, I don't think that it's at all unfair to ask you to work under the conditions I work under myself.

Other questions?

. . .

Fine.

Get started, people.

One word? - Laconic.

A BIG man, but not necessarily 'tall' - although I'd put him at 5'10" 5'11" - barrel chested, with big hands - not 'meaty' hands - but nimble long long fingers. Long, solid legs. Much faster than he looks. Most of his 'big' is in his chest and shoulders - a man that big shouldn't be able to move that fast, type big.

Honorable. VERY honorable, but with a very checkered past - boy was a 'wild child' - survived a tough world long enough to grow and learn. He's got scars, and lots of them, hides them well. Compulsively rescues, teaches, and makes others grow up, or at least realize they need to.

If you're in trouble, any kind of trouble, from math homework to the Juntavas... you run to Cheever. He'll get you out and safe. Even if you've only just been casually introduced, or seen him in the same shop... you KNOW you can run to Cheever - and he'll help.

Women are real people to him, he and they both get along better than well, but he's never met one to steal his heart, except for, possibly, Nova. Also? there's a definite 'class solidarity' about the man - he's blue collar down to his toenails and would *never* so much as flirt with Nova, her being more than a touch above him. Whether or not they can overcome such things to meet in the middle? - your choice. *grin*
