Wild Roving, Thursday [30/08]

[not_in_the_book]

"Good morning, everyone!" Ronan said cheerily, giving a jaunty wave to his class. "It's nice to see so many familiar faces. For those who don't know me, my name is Ronan Nolan -- you can just call me Ronan, no real need for the 'professor' thing unless you really want to -- and I am a wizard."

He paused for a moment. "... If there are any newbies here who don't believe me yet, yes, I do in fact mean the kind of wizard who does magic. Stay back after class if you want to see an example of something I can do; I promise I'm not crazy.

"So, welcome to Wild Roving," Ronan continued. "In this class, I'm going to be drawing upon some of my own experiences to teach you the skills you need if you're ever travelling on your own -- whether that's backpacking across Europe, running away from the authorities, or travelling the galaxy world-to-world.

"And, since this is the first class, we're going to go with the Fandom tradition and do introductions."

[Wait for OCD is up!]

"Sparkle, sophomore, from Toronto, Canada, and... I dunno, after I graduate I've kinda got it all set out in the wide open for me, you know?" He tilted his head. "Backpack across Canada. Europe, if I can get to it. I dunno."

He'd clearly given this a whole lot of thought.

"Somewhere. Just so long as I'm doing something. And not, like, being arrested for it."

Ronan laughed a little at that. "Sometimes not being arrested is the most difficult part of it. There will definitely be a class on interacting with law enforcement."

"Be sure to tell the class not to spit in their faces or flip them the bird," Sparkle offered, helpfully. "They hate that."

Speaking from experience?

... Probably.

Ronan laughed a little at that -- couldn't help it. "We'll be covering that, yeah, and a little on interacting with law enforcement when you don't speak the local language."

Not that he'd ever had to deal with that personally -- thank you, Speech -- but he'd heard it could be difficult.

"Same rules apply," Sparkle decided, smirking. "No spitting. No matter how tempting it is."

... Sparkle.
