Loki knew it was the last day of class and, while he'd thought of treating the class to something, he decided against it because he was a damn lazy bastard and he got up too late to actually get anything. The class had been handwavily notified to meet in the Danger Shop just to make things easier.

"So, it's the last class," he said from his spot at the front of the room, "and you've all survived. Not that there was a chance you wouldn't but still, it's good to see. I don't really have anything planned for your final exam because it's hard to test your skills in working together subjectively. So, you get off easy."

Well, not that easy.

"That doesn't mean you can fucking leave or anything, oh no," he continued. "You're still stuck with doing something, you're just not going to get graded on it. Since you've been working together all term, today, you get to work against each other. Today, you're going to joust! So, have fun and thanks for coming to class every week. Hope you learned something and if you didn't, it was your fucking fault and not mine."

Always displacing blame.

"Hope to see a few of you next semester." Like he'd be giving up a sweet teaching gig.

No, no, her mother wasn't any Angel. Her situation was quite a bit different.

"I'm sure. My mother is... complicated."

Which was said in a way as to indicate not that she didn't want to talk about it, but that it was probably best she didn't talk about it here. Quirking her lips to one side, she considered what to say, and the fact that she had a class activity to do whether or not he graded things.

"Can I-- could I talk to you sometime? About this stuff? No one's told us anything, and we weren't allowed to read about it either. All I've got are a few names and, well, this."

The necklace.

Of course she could have asked her father, but she knew she'd be getting a very skewed perspective from him. And her mother? Even moreso.

"Sure," he said after a moment. He'd been removed from that scene for awhile now. Might be useful to get back into it albeit slowly and peripherally. "I'll be in the office they gave me tomorrow. Other than that, I work at MHA in town. You can find me there on Tuesdays."

She probably looked more thankful than one might expect. Her nod was quick, a combination of nerves and excitement, and as an afterthought, she tucked the necklace into her shirt. It wasn't that she'd been baiting him so much as that she was now aware that others could tell it was more than something to wear.

"Okay. Okay, thanks. I really appreciate it."

She tipped her head to the jousting area.

"I should, um, probably get to that."

"Have fun," he said, nodding briefly before he wandered away. That had been...interesting. And unexpected. But not all together unwelcome. This fucking island was full of surprises.
