"Oh my" she chuckled at his statement. So the little dears were skipping out on their courses? Well, that would be something that will need to be addressed. It was important that they were well educated. No need for the club to waste their time fine tuning these young mutants into future members if they weren't going to take their studies seriously.
"Ah, so thats what you teach. Means you know your way around the body very well. Interesting..." she said tappping her chin and she stared him up and down. "Perhaps I should tune up my knowledge in that field. Do you tutor?" she grinned, genuinely for once.

Duncan just gave her a bit of a nod. "Hard to teach when the seats are empty." He shrugged a bit having skipped out on his fair share of classes but what he can gather not many of the teachers are getting much business as it were. "Any suggestions on how to get them to class save for having wet t-shirt contests and guys dressed like Chippendale dancers?" The corners of his mouth lifted causing him to get that boyish grin of his.
Alright he'll bite. Call it curiosity or boredom he couldn't tell but he was going to bite. Apparently she was going to start flirting and his mama always raised him to respect a ladies wishes with in reason. "Ma'am, I didn't need medical school to learn my way around the human body." That was said with a quick wink. What the hell he had nothing else to do and it might save his sorry ass one day. His brow went up at her question. "I guess I could if you were in that much of a need for the knowledge." When she wasn't being all Morticia Addams she wasn't all that bad to look at yet his eyes still never strayed from her face. The boy ain't stupid.

"Oh, I see. Well you know know how teenagers are. Driven by their hormones. I mean, I'm sure you could remember being their age and getting excited about every attractive that passed by and or spoke to you. BUT that still doesn't excuse their behavior and for them to be wasting your time. I will have have a talk to Ms. frost about carrying out the proper discipline." she informed him and she shall. It gave her the perfect excuse to bitch out the White Queen and correct her on the flaws that have gone uncorrected in the school. This made Selene a very happy woman and so when Duncan decided to flirt back a little more well, that just made her night a little bit more.
"Such subtlety, I love it. Still, inquiring minds would love to hear the technique that allowed you to learn so well."

He was thinking he was still pretty much like that only he knew which ones to go after and which ones to leave alone. That was about as far as his hormonal maturity went. "Yeah I remember. Trust me I also remember the punishments my parents and teachers were allowed to dole out back then. Unlike now where if you look at them funny they can get your ass thrown in jail for child abuse." Beating a kid he never agreed with, but he did believe they should be able to give him a swat on the backside.
He smirked at her. "You want the technical learning? The Montgomery G.I. Bill made it happen. You want the practical? That would have been Emma Rose Jamison, age seventeen and the babysitter to my thirteen year old self." He winked at her and gave her a smile that tugged up the left corner of his mouth.

"Huh, tell me about it. Back in my day, we'd just abandon or stone the child if they were disobedient..." she said casually, though caught herself and added a "Just kidding" to the end of the phrase with a light chuckle. Then there was the bit about the babysitter. She stared back at him, even more intrigued by this young man than before. Granted that he didn't come anywhere close near the experience she had, but for a normal mortal, he had a pretty good and early start.
"I bit of an age gap. It astounds me that a thirteen year old would even know how to properly pleasure a woman who's nearly an adult. One could only imagine what you could do now as a man." she said returning the wink.

A brow went up once more when she mentioned abondoning or stoning a child. Now this was a bit interesting, it seemed someone wasn't used to casual conversation. "My daddy would never whoop me, so that might be part of the problem." He smirked and wished he had a drink right about now. This was an odd freaking night. He stretched a bit and rolled his shoulders. That weird eerie feeling wasn't leaving him completely but he'd give her the benefit of the doubt, that was until she proved him right and tried something on him. Damn, when he become this jaded where women were concerned?
The man smirked and shook his head. "A thirteen year old didn't. But the thirteen year old played baseball, kept in shape and already had a four pack. Emma was more than patient with me. My parents never found out either. That's where the thirteen year old con boy came in handy." He chuckled at her last comment. "You'd be surprised at what I can do now. Only one issue, I very rarely ever play a home game."

"Ah, that is quite unfortunate." Selene nodded and let out a bit of a sigh. "I understand your position though. Sometimes life can get too hectic and you have to put your own needs on the back burner for others. To be honest, it's been quite awhile since I have had enjoyable company from a man. I'm starting to think that I'm just not that attractive anymore." she sighed again placing her hands into her lap and looking out into the distance.

Duncan looked over at her and wondered if she was being serious or playing coy. "They get too attached and expect more than they are getting if you play the game too close to home." He wasn't a relationship type person and seeing the woman everyday usually led them to believe that he wanted one. Not his style and never will be regardless of any vodoo hex Alex might put on him. "For what it's worth you are a very attractive woman. I'm just a very cautious man."

"Oh my, well thank you for the compliment, I do try. You're very attractive man, I can see why a woman would become smitten with you. It's only natural for a girl to try and pick out the best genes for her offspring to look just as good as herself and their father." she chuckled.
"Also, I don't blame you for being cautious either. I was once married once, dear god I don't think I'll ever do it again. While the thought of having a significant other is comforting, I don't think I could ever be trapped with just one person again. There's so much other fruit to taste and indulge in."

Duncan actually gave her a smile. "Well you do a good job of looking attractive. My mama just raised me better than most. I know when all the girl is wanting is a good time, something more, or something completely different. You, I'm not so sure about, but I'd want to put my money on something different." He was a bit shocked that they were having a conversation. He relaxed quite a bit and rested his arm on the back of the bench turning to face her. Most would believe that he'd let his guard down but that was far from the fact. The more relaxed he got the more alert he became it was how he could let off that laid back, lazy boy attitude and still not be dead.
"Never been married, don't ever plan on being married, no woman would have me longer than a few nights anyway. I won't pussyfoot around and becareful what I say just so she doesn't get her feelings hurt. Word of caution, never ask me if it makes your butt look big. If it does, I will tell you." He'd gotten slapped, smacked, and kneed many a times for agreeing the jeans did in fact make their ass look big. "Why don't we do this, tell me what it is you are actually after and I'll see what we can do about it. I'm not meaning to be rude but if we are going to be sort of working together I'd like to have a few cards out on the table. I don't need to see the whole hand but I want to know what I'm getting into here. With me? It's basically just some company I never plan for anything more than that. But you seem, so far, like a fairly decent lady and I'm going to just go with that for the moment until you give me reason to believe otherwise." At least she didn't get into his head like Emma did, granted she hasn't done it since and he understood the reasoning but he still didn't like the violation. All Emma had to do was ask, it wasn't like he knew how to block her.

"Oh, it's fine, I'd never ask you such a imprudent question. There's no need to ask anyone else if your posterior is large or not. That's what a mirror is for. And well, if they can't handle your honesty, it is their burden for asking in the first place." Selene responded looking back at the man. So he wanted to know what she wanted? Well she could be honest and just tell him that she was going to suck the life out if him, but how can she reduce such a fine man to a pile of ashes? ....Well, this one this one anyway. It was too late for the countless thousands that had already been lost to her powers. She didn't really actually expecting to really get anything from him except an energy snack but then upon finding out he was a teacher at the academy, she just enjoyed a nice conversation, having put her evil and twisted ways to the side for now.
"Sir, there is nothing I'm asking from you. I was just conversing with a gentleman who was kind enough to keep me company. But if you're implying that I'm looking for something a little more provocative, well I wouldn't say yes, but not necessarily say no either. I mean, whenever the opportunity to play the as you call it 'home game' presents itself, who am I not to take advantage of it. Of course, it would be no strings attached, I loath clingy men." she said staring back at him.

Duncan smirked and nodded to her. "The majority doesn't seem to agree with your assessment as my face and other anatomical parts, have found out the hard way. Nice to know someone isn't either going to ask or has enough sense to accept the answer." This has got to be one of the strangest conversations he has ever had with anyone not even just a woman. Still he was curious as to what her powers were but was smart enough not to ask. If there was an off chance he wouldn't like the answer it was better not to know.
Blue eyes looked back at her and he nodded. "Fair enough but you can't really blame me for my question. Not considering what the majority of the females at the school could do to me or make me do without my want or knowledge." He finally afforded her the courtesy, as odd as the sounds, of looking her up and down. His eyes traveled back up to look her in the eye. "Clingy men and clingy women are the bane of any decent persons existance. I'm not say we will but I'm not saying we won't. But how about we get out of here and go get a drink? No pressure and no expectations from either side. Just conversation, maybe some food, and maybe a couple of drinks." This was definitely turning out to be a strange night and he was not going to tell Alex.

"I have comprehended your situation and I do not blame you. I take it that your mind had been invaded my Ms. Frost before without your consent? It sounds like something she would do. Sometimes that woman angers me. She needs to learn how to respect people's boundaries. " she replied as her red eyes glanced up to meet his blue ones and another smirk formed on her lips.
"My, my. It's been awhile since I've had a date. Or 'hanging out' as some of these young ones these days call it. But I would like to have a drink with you."

Duncan gave a bit of a shrug. "She was protecting the kids I can't fault her for that. I just don't like someone in my head. I have hard enough dealing with a majority of it." He studied her red eyes for a minute not that was interesting. He'd never seen a woman with red eyes before, hmm. When she said she hadn't been on a date in awhile he smirked. "Why don't we call it hanging out since it wasn't something planned? You hungry, depending on if you are is where we can go. Besides it's getting cold out here." He stood up and offered her his hand like any gentleman would.

"Alrighty then, I would enjoy hanging out with you," she smiled standing up and taking his arm. At such close contact, she fought all the urge to suck this man dry of his life force. She just had to keep reminding herself of a free drink and dinner. Even the wealthy appreciated the free things in life.
"I suppose I could have a bite to eat. I'm not particularly picky about what food or drinks. I enjoy experimenting and trying new things."
