Classrooms Around Campus, All Day Saturday

It was Saturday, and that meant Career Day! Unbeknownst to all the students who had taken the career placement test, Fandom had apparently conspired to place them all in workshops that didn't quite fit the answers they gave for their tests. The island was tricky that way. Not to mention that the workshops that the island had planned were somewhat different from the workshops an ordinary school might offer on Career Day. As in quite a lot different.

So the classrooms all around the school were filled with visitors from off-island and island alike, all of whom had been led to believe that they would be teaching eager-minded groups of students, excited to learn about their prospective care
ers. This assumption was not necessarily accurate.

It was fortunate that Warren hadn't grabbed a bottle of Coke or something before coming, because he probably would have wound up wearing it the moment Sheila there said something.

That didn't stop him from kind of staring for a few moments. And then reminding himself that he was the guy sitting there with wings, and who was he to judge? Right, then. Maybe it was time for another tactic.

"Have you ever... met a couple of guys in butterfly suits?"

The Guild sounded a little familiar, was the thing. Small world?

Warren probably did not expect the epic facepalming.

"You have to be kidding me," Sheila huffed. "He followed me here?"

Ex-boyfriends were not supposed to be this difficult to get rid of.

Well, that explained that.

"...No," Warren ventured, chewing on his lip. "Those two were actually here a couple of semesters ago, teaching Arching 101 through the school."

There was a pause, and then a crooked little smile. "You know their boss?"

"You could say that," she said. "I was his lady friend. He's too immature to handle a real relationship, so he's out of the picture. He's also having a hard time accepting that it's over."

Warren's expression went more than a little sympathetic.

"Oh, wow. One of those, huh?" Not that Warren had a huge amount of experience with that sort of person, but he had gotten a healthy dosage of soap operas while growing up. "I'm sorry I brought him up, then."

"Oh, that's fine, sweetie," she said, waving a hand. "You didn't know. I'm better off, anyway."

She reminded herself of this whenever he made grand, romantic gestures and begged her to come back. Which was often.
