"Good morning," Yeul said from the front of the classroom. She would have kept them outside, but the weather was poor and while Yeul did not mind… she was aware other people would. "Professor Wiggin is absent today and I am to lead class in his stead."

Which was what it was. She assumed he would be back at some point. A tray of sandwiches along with juice and coffee were on the table to her left.

"I was not left with a topic to discuss with you, as I believe his absence was unplanned." Not that this class particularly lent itself to a strict syllabus but… "That being said, the Professor's absence leads well enough into a discussion on its own."

Yeul smiled. "Let us talk about change today. Any sort of change. Would you say you are different from whom you were a year ago? What changes have you made to your lives? What changes have you adapted to?" She spread her hands out and shrugged slightly, still smiling. "As per usual, if you do not wish to stay on topic, please do not feel you have to. Let's begin, shall we?"

"That's a very interesting statement to make," Yeul said, nodding cheerfully at Bay. "Do you think it always holds true?"

"Not every single time," Bay admitted. "Like, if your life's going to change because you join the army or something, you probably knew the war was going on. But a lot of other stuff, like falling in love, or finding out a secret, or starting a new school -- that usually just falls out of the blue, yeah."

"Even in hindsight?" Yeul wondered.

"Maybe not in hindsight," Bay conceded. "But I wasn't really talking about how you feel about stuff down the road, more about what it's like right at that moment."

"And that's fine!" Yeul said, wanting to make that clear. "I just wondered if you thought it could apply in other times. It does make the most sense to speak of it in the present."
