Monday, March 12, Period 2

There was fine array of breakfast pastries and cookies laid out for the students today, along with plenty of hot drinks and juices. As soon as everyone was assembled, Aziraphale stood up from his chair and smiled.

"First, I want to remind you all that we will be taking our class field trip this weekend. The buses will load at the causeway on Friday at 3:00, and we'll return Sunday night. I'd like to ask anyone who cannot attend to please let me know, otherwise I will expect to see you all there. Now, I'll need to see the following people after class to collect your absence excuses."

Matilda Wormwood (two absences)
Angela Chase (one absence)
Jack Harkness (one absence) excused
Liz Sherman (one absence) excused

DISCUSSION: "Today we're going to have an open discussion to allow you all the chance to ask questions about the readings or the lectures, or to share your ideas about the material we've covered. Next week we'll be having a test on 'Themes', so this might be a good time to review that material as well."

Molly Whuppie
Jack the Giant Killer
The Sleeping Beauty
The Dancing Water, the Singing Apple, and the Speaking Bird
Hansel and Gretel
Brother and Sister
The Rose Tree
John the True
Mr Fox
Jack and the Beanstalk
Little Snow White

HOMEWORK: "Be at the causeway on Friday afternoon, and don't forget to study for the test."

[ooc: I should be around, with intermittant SP due to work, to answer any questions the characters have. Go ahead, throw out your ideas about the stories they've read so far, talk about how crazy the plots are or how silly the heros are or how you think the story should have ended! Please wait just a few minutes for the OCD is up, yay!.]

Re: TALK TO AZIRAPHALE

"Oh dear," Aziraphale replied. "I do hope she's all right. Or, er...at least as all right as one can be in the clinic. If you see her, tell her that of course her absences are excused. And..."

He rummaged on the table next to his chair, and handed John a small tin of tea. "Here you are. Perhaps a bit of tea will help her to feel better."

"It might. Tea is supposed to help with everything. She... she has a power that got away from her. She's afraid, and... I was wondering if you could talk to her?" He takes the tea tin; he'll give it to her later at the clinic if she's still there.

"Of course, I'll be happy to talk to her," Aziraphale promised. "Do you think she would prefer me to see her in the clinic, or wait until she's up and about and able to come by my office?"

"I'm not sure, really." John sighed, and took a big breath. "She's suffering from nightmares. She...did some things, and I think she's reliving them. And I was wondering if you could help, since... you helped with mine."

"Yes, of course. Why don't you let Miss Sherman know that I'll be happy to make myself available for her whenever she's feeling up to it, and that I can either come see her at the clinic or arrange to meet her in my office at any time that's convenient for her."

"I will. Thanks. I'll let you know when she's out. But, um, I haven't exactly told her that I'd talk to you about this, so go easy on her?" John looked a bit sheepish.

Aziraphale chuckled. "I will, Mr Connor, I promise. Tell her I hope she feels better very soon."

"I will. I'm headed that way." He gave the angel a grin.
