So it seems like someone's starting a book club for real.

Should we continue with our plan as-is, or do we need to come up with a different kind of club?

Aaa, we always hit those pesky roadblocks, don't we Miss Skye?

[glowing_science]

Yeah. I'm kicking myself for not getting my act together sooner.

What are your thoughts? Do you think the drones would notice or care if there are two different book clubs, or should we switch to something more domestic?

[best_papa_evar]

Well, it's an easy fix--we just change the topic from books to something that would be equally satisfying to a housewife, right? How about knitting, or cooking?

[glowing_science]

Knitting is automatically out--I can't do it. Cooking might not be a bad idea if we pitch it right. Something about practice and helping younger wives... [The gears are turning!]

It could work! Although that would limit the members to exactly me, so I'd have to possibly enlist another female into the plan.

now that my internet sucks, i can finally reply! yaay! \o/

If I understood correctly their advertisement, I think they'll concentrate on... different kind of literature. I might be wrong, but for now I think we should at least try our plan as we're not trying to get public attention like the other club.

But in case that doesn't work, we could try something else. One way to get Jane Smith's attention would be music, I suppose, but that might be a bit trickier to carry out.

YAY \o/ Did you get everything moved okay?

[glowing_science]

That's a good point, although I'm more concerned with how public their club is rather than how public ours is. I don't want the response from Jane Smith to be 'isn't there one already?' Mr. Hughes suggested something domestic, like cooking.

Music might work, too, although I'm not sure if baiting Jane is a good idea. We want to get into their house, not draw the real woman out of the drone. Not yet, at least.

whoops, forgot to answer this, hee. yeah, the school itself started today and our teacher seems cute

As I said, they're concentrating on different kind of literature than what we had in mind. In that case, I think it wouldn't seem too strange if we just answered her:"Oh, we just simply wanted to dedicate a club for this kind of literature and one that wouldn't be just for housewives." I believe with cooking we would have the problem that men wouldn't be allowed in the club, ja?

Hm, true, I hadn't thought of that. And with music their house would at least need to have a piano for the meeting to be there.

Awesome! :D

[glowing_science]

That's true... I don't really know any women who could go in with me, and I really don't want to do this solo. Okay. We'll stick with the plan and see what happens. The worst that can happen is that we fail.

I was thinking of keeping it fairly simple. You, me, drones, and the Smiths. We don't want to attract too much attention, and the more non-drone participants we have the more likely our cover is to be blown or otherwise compromised.
