Western Literature and Poetry: Open Classroom

[geoff-chaucer.livejournal.com]

Professor Chaucer's classroom is open for any students, parents, or random droppers-by who'd like to visit. He'll be in all day, and if no one stops in -- well, it's a good quiet place to catch up on some work for his new patron.


[OOC: Will be slow-played until 8:00PM EDT.]


EDITED: It's been announced that the deadline for drop/add is Tuesday. Enrollment is still open for Introduction to Western Literature until that time. Any interested students can sign up here.

Angela tucks her hair behind her ear. "We're studying poetery, and writing it. He just took over the English classes a few weeks ago. The old teacher ... left."

Bowing slightly over Patty's hand and smiling, Geoff replies, "They'll be required to produce an original poem every couple of weeks, based on what we're covering in class at that point."

With another smile for Angela as well, he adds, "Our first class only met last week, but I'm very pleased with the enthusiasm all of my students bring to the subject."

"And what are your qualifications? Are you a substitute, or will you be taking on the class long-term?"

Patty looks stern, but really she is inwardly wary of Angela taking this type of course, especially with a 'young', attractive teacher.

Geoff raises an eyebrow at the question about 'qualifications', but in the interest of saving Angela from any more embarassment than is unavoidable, he just smiles. "I'm a writer by profession, madame. And although I've just come in as a substitute, I hope the administration will see fit to keep me on."

He recognizes Patty's wariness and decides not to mention that he's never taught before, or that he's acquainted with Angela outside of class.

Angela shoots Geoff a grateful smile. "He's a really good teacher, mom."

"Mom ... this is boring. Mom, there's a bake sale next door, can we go? I'm hungry."

*under her breath* "Angela gets all the hot teachers..."

Patty turns to Danielle, "Excuse me, Professor.

Danielle, we can go in just a minute. Let Angela say goodbye to her professor."

She turns back to Chaucer. "Well, I wish you luck. Thank you for your time."

[chasingangela]

"Thanks, Mom. Goodbye, Mr. Chaucer."

When Patty turns, she mumbles -- very fast and very quietly -- "youweregreatgeoffthankyouihavebignewstellyoulater."

Geoff gives Angela a wink, and mouths "You're welcome. Come see me later."

[chasingangela]

Angela winks back and shoots him a thumbs-up before turning to go.

"It was my pleasure. I hope you're enjoying your visit to Fandom." Geoff gives another small bow to Patty, and a grin and a bow to Danielle as well.

"Thank you," Patty nods, and follows Angela outside.
