fandomhigh | care for magical creatures | monday | fourth period

Loki hadn't expected to be back in a classroom for awhile so to be back so soon after his classes this summer was a welcome surprise. Of course, his presence today was merely as a substitute for an errant teacher and it was for a class he didn't know a ton about. Still, that wasn't going to stop him.

Once the students had come in and taken their seats, Loki stood up and started talking.

"Hello," he said, grinning slyly at everyone there. "So, I guess I should get introductions out of the way, shouldn't I? My name's Loki and I'll be filling in for Professor Minsc for the remainder of the semester. Aren't you all fucking excited? I know I am. Of course, I know shit all about this class but that'll change once I get up to speed on things. Caring for magical creatures isn't really my thing but I'm sure I can dig up some activities for you all. We'll take it easy today just so we can all get used to each other."

See? Loki could be fucking nice. Of course, once Loki got used to the class, he'd fall back into his usual habits but, until then, he'd be a nice guy. Or something.

"So, in honor of the Halloween that just passed, how about we learn about things that go bump in the night? Ghosts, goblins, ghouls, mummies, banshees, headless horsemen, boogymen, that sort of thing. For today, write down one thing that you would not want to find under your fucking bed, one thing that would freak the shit out of you and then share it with the class."

If it was wimpy shit, Loki would laugh. And yeah, he was aware this wasn't very caring but monsters were magical and the kids would have to know how to deal with them sooner or later. Might as well get it out now.

Take notes, listen to Loki talk, chat with each other, all that good stuff!

Maron blinked and tilted her head thoughtfully. It wasn't that she didn't like Loki, because she did for all that he had a mouth on him, but she wondered where Professor Minsc had gone...

And, ugh, scary stuff today. Brrr.

Loki! Hey! While Zack was wondering what had happened to Minsc, it was good to see a teacher that he already knew, stepping up to take the reigns on the class!

He was bouncing a little in his seat. Leftover candy buzz!

Write down one thing that you wouldn't want to find under your bed and then share it with the class!

Maron looked vaguely apologetic. "I wouldn't be so fond of finding a body under my bed, whether it was a real one or a monster pretending to be one," she said, figuring that that was a) a good thing to not want to find and b) really was the honest truth.

Because she'd totally scream her pretty little head off in that situation.

Zack put up his hand after Maron had shared her answer.

"Can I say what Maron said? I can't really think of anything that I couldn't handle if I found it under my bed..."

Well, maybe he could do without finding a vampire under there, but he didn't particularly want to dredge up that trauma all over again at just this very moment.

"A body would be kinda creepy."

She made a face at him.

"Cheater," Maron teased. "Taking my answer--maybe next time you'll be faster then!"

Maron was just... going to ignore the whole vampire thing for the moment. Bodies under the bed. TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

Bodies were completely different! Really!

"Well, it was either that, or else the Gaian deity of fire," Zack replied with a half-pout. "But I already kinda technically wake up with Ifrit under my bed anyhow, so bodies come in a close second."

Ifrit was so much less threatening when he came in the form of a shiny summon materia.

"...you wake up with a god of fire in your bed?"

Maron wasn't sure what to make of that.

Seriously.

"Under," Zack clarified, shrugging. "And only if I've it's still in my pants when I kick them off for the night."

Zack. Stop talking, now. Please.

...

...

...note that Maron was slowly blushing straight up to the roots of her hair. "What?" she squeaked.

... That was a very fetching shade of red on her, wasn't it?

Zack blinked, and then he dug about in his pocket before fishing out the red summon materia.

"Uh... Ifrit."

If he knew why she was blushing, he probably would be as well.

"Ooooh," she said, blush firmly in place. "I thought, um..."

Maron gave the glowy orb another glance.

"Um. Never mind."

Loki figured there'd be a TA or two around to assist!

Lion-o was here ~~and totally on time, really~~.

If you'd like to chat it up with your substitute!

So, okay! Loki's subbing for the rest of the semester and he and I will take a week or so just to get used to the class. If you don't know Loki, just know he's brutally honest, aggressively outspoken and cusses a lot. It's all him, it's not me.

YAY LOKI!

LOKI HI! \o/

Yay Loki!

And ZOMG, I have no idea how I missed this post, except to say that I hate being sick.
