Office Hours

[romanywitch]

Jenny was sitting in her office, innocently grading this week's classes, and ready to be interrupted by anyone. Because innocently grading this week's classes was boring.

A week? Xander tried not to let the disappointment show on his face. It could be worse, in any number of ways he wasn't going to list out even in his head for the same reason that only morons ever say 'What could possibly go wrong?' out loud where the universe can hear you.

"Right," he said, nodding. "Sure. I can do that. You want me to check back in with you next Friday?"

"Yeah," said Jenny. "I should have something for you by then. Sorry it's gonna take so long, but I don't want to zap you with the wrong spell."

Xander made a face at the thought. "Fair point; all I need is something to make my existence even weirder while I'm trying to fix it." He stood up and tossed the apple stem towards the trash can. "Thanks for the help."

"Any time, Xander," said Jenny. "See you in class, 'kay?"

[soldtoarmenians]

"Yep. Somehow I have the feeling you'd notice I was gone if I ditched." Xander waved, and turned to leave, still studying his uneaten apple with a small frown.

From somewhere around the corner, once he'd gone, discerning ears might have finally heard a crunch.
