Choosing Your Own Government--Monday, Period 5, Class #8

[remember5th.livejournal.com]

Evey felt almost out of place as she stood at the front of the classroom, eyes wide and taking in every movement of every classmate.

"Hello," she said quietly, when she was certain everyone who would arrive had done so. "Vala's a bit indisposed at the moment," or, rather, MIA, "so I'll be covering class today. And since she didn't leave a lesson plan, we're going to watch a film." Because Evey was nowhere near ready to try to speak about her personal experience or relate another form of government.

"I haven't seen this one, but it sounds like it relates," she said, popping in the movie. "Sleep if you like. It's your time to waste."

Evey smiled as she understood. "You're very expressive, even as a horse."

He arched his neck and flagged his tail, looking pleased, and moved to nuzzle her hair.
