Living With Difficult Women [Tuesday, Period 5]

[furious-maximus.livejournal.com]

Max had had an... interesting weekend, and he he bet his students had as well. "Well," he began with a grin, "it's been an interesting semester. And it's been a pleasure to have all of you in this class." Yes. Even you, difficult women. "But we're almost done. Which means its almost time for your comprehensive final exam." And suddenly Max's grin was downright evil. "It's going to be extremely detailed, and likely rather difficult, so today we're going to be going over any questions you might have. Is there a topic we've discussed that you'd like to look at in more detail? Or something you had questions about? Now's the time to ask."

"Additionally, since part of the exam is going to be about practical applications, we're going to discuss which techniques and situations we've discussed this semester have turned out to be useful." Hopefully the answer wasn't going to turn out to be 'none of them'.

"I could ramble on and on with instructions for today, but we only have so much time and I already suspect we won't get to cover everything you need to know." It was going to be a brutal exam, after all. "So, let's get to it."

Library, Tuesday.

Anemone was Busy.

She was in the midst of writing a very long and detailed letter to Abeni, complete with illustrations of the gremlin invasion, the monkey-ponies, anything that her somewhere-daughter would probably find most delightful. She'd entrust it to the Fandom postal service, like she did with her letters for her other friends that had left, and simply hope for the best.

And she was the Anemone. If the death of hope believed something, then to her, that meant it had to be true. Until told otherwise, she would always believe her letters reached their destinations.

Finish the letter to Beni before class, then maybe some for A.J., Cassandra, River, and the others. Graduation looming was starting to make her nostalgic.

Magical Ethics: Week 14, Period 1

Alysha had been off-island since last week.  With Charlie calling and offering to bring her home through the Wood for the weekend, and oh, by the way, she really missed her and had plans to prove it, there'd be no way to say no.  Seriously.  It was even worth the frustration of all the aunties piling on about how they disapproved of her teaching so far away - and in the States!

It was even more worth it when she got back to the island last night to laugh a lot at all the teenagers trying to be parents, and wow, was she glad she hadn't been around.  She didn't want to know what kind of kid would show up for her.

"Seems you all had an entertaining weekend," Alysha said with the smugness of someone who didn't have to deal with it.  "And it appears you're all in one piece unless you're not.  So good job on surviving another Fandom Experience.  I was out of town.  I'm totally good with that."

"A few weeks ago, one of your classmates-" she glanced at Tara if she was there "-brought up the question of, I guess we could call it full disclosure.  Is it ethically required to tell other people you have magic or powers beyond the norm?  I think we can all agree there's no need to wear a pin of something saying 'Hi my name is Alysha Gale and I have magic,' but does there come a point when telling an acquaintance, a friend, a lover, a family member is the right thing to do and where is it?"

"Your question for today, have fun."

Monomyths [Tuesday, April 13, Period 3]

Cindy watched the class file in, surprising herself with the small bite of melancholy that she felt. It had been a good first class to have and to teach and she was a bit sad to see it come to an end. And then the bell rang and she pushed those feelings aside. Probably just some residual nostalgia from everyone else missing the randomly-appearing kids or something, she decided.
