Newspaper Club, Journalism Room, Monday after classes

As the new staff of the Fandom High Times walked into the Journalism Room after classes, they would find pastries, an ungodly amount of coffee, and Dave, who was drinking an amount of coffee that was only slightly more coffee.

"Hey, everyone. Welcome to the newspaper. If you don't know me, or at least haven't formally met me, I'm Dave Nelson. I'll be your editor, but don't worry, I'll be a fair boss. And if you need anything, anything at all, feel free to come to me. Please don't bother Jaye Tyler, our faculty sponsor. I promised her she wouldn't have to do anything, and I intend to keep that promise."

"As for regular business, I'll keep this short and sweet today. Anyone know what specifically they want to work on for next Monday's paper? If not, I'm sure we can figure something out."

"In the meantime, help yourself to food and coffee. They'll be a weekly staple to keep you coming back," Dave said. He wasn't really joking.

Lucrezia tilted her head and weighed her options. She doubted that dallying with a stable-boy counted as a hobby, nor would maiming one's husband to keep him out of one's reach.

She considered answering with something innocent, but something compelled her be a bit more forthcoming.

"I observe," she said. "I collect, and I use what I must."

It sounded melodramatic, but so was life in Rome.
