You think it'd be a pretty smart idea to pawn off Una onto Forja again. Your first attempt didn't work so good, but if you could get her interested in him, then she'd get off your back and it'd be the one two punch of helping your friend out with his own little kink. But how?
Wait- that's it! The wrestling! You did manage to beat him in wrestling, and surely word got around, or maybe she took a peak in to watch you two go at it from the girl's gym. Showing your strength like that against a fit and confident Alpha-Male Jaxtian must have made you "big man" material in her eyes, you guess. Damn, you don't think you'll ever understand women...
You try to retrace your steps and find Forja during lunch, pulling him aside to tell him your secret plan.
<span class="mu-g">"Yeah bro, they will totally be into you if you start beating me in wrestling matches! That's traditionally how Vetucker men competed for women."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Heh, really? I mean, I don't really want to just cheat like that but..."</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Come on, I don't mind."</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Wait, wouldn't that put <span class="mu-i">you</span> down the social hierarchy then? You don't want to get checked out by your own women?"</span>
<span class="mu-g">"Erhm... no... it's just... Uhmm... You remember Una right? The big girl?"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Ohh. Yeah~"</span> Forja puckers, looking aside as he mentally conjures up her image. This is perfect!
<span class="mu-g">"Yeah well; she's been watching the men recently... And uhh... she's the wrong caste for me. You know, like a blonde, I guess? So you should like... slide in, know what I mean?"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"Hoik, I thought you were a good friend but now I think you might just be my best friend! The ultimate wingman! You crystal hanging 'round my neck!"</span>
<span class="mu-g">"No problem, "bro". Hehe...."</span>
With your mischievous plan in action, you decide to plan on wrestling again the next time you have PT together; it'll be perfect! You know for a fact Jaxtian girls don't really care about big displays of manly strength like that, they like dancing and stuff, so you don't even think it'll hurt your chances with a Jaxtian girl either. It's perfect. But now, you gotta hurry to class.
<span class="mu-s">Standard education</span> in the Hegemony revolves around state-decided general education; basic science and health related topics, heavy physical and mental training, historical studies, critical thinking, and social conditioning. But for specific topics, things that people earn lanyards for, one must put in some extra effort. This is how most people in the Hegemony learn; self-decided interactive simulations, AI guided deep dives, and your own curiosity to explore known Hegemonic literature
