fandomhigh | MORE QUESTING! Thursday, Period Four

It being the first day, the class was meeting in a regular classroom instead of the Danger Shop, where the majority of subsequent classes were likely to be held. Thor looked around at his students, pleased to see so many familiar faces.

"Welcome to More Questing!" he boomed. "If you participated in the class I held last semester, the idea behind this class is a similar one. If you did not, the purpose is simple: I am here to assist you in preparing yourself to deal with the kinds of tasks you may find yourself needing to complete as part of a quest. And a quest could be many things! Perhaps you are a young hero, eager to prove your cunning or strength. Or you have had a quest thrust upon you, and must act quickly to save someone you care about. And sometimes a quest could be a coming-of-age, proving that you are ready to become an adult member of your community."

"Now," he smiled again at the group. "Many of you I am familiar with already, but that does not mean you are familiar with each other. And so, as is traditional during the first week, I shall have you introduce yourselves, with your name, age, and a topic that you'd like to learn about in this class."

Once introductions were finished, Thor spoke once more. "Also, if anyone here is interested in the position of Teaching Assistant, please come speak to me."

As with many things, blame Loki (http://fandomhigh.livejournal.com/3531024.html?thread=204392208#t204392208) for this.

Josh arrived with coffee and pastries after the students had left. "Good Lord, you are really tall," he said, staring up at Thor.

That's not why he was here, by the way, but the obvious needed to be pointed out first.

Thor smiled wide at Josh's not-quite-greeting. "My-" what did he consider Jane, exactly? Although he was familiar with the Midgardian term 'girlfriend', the word still felt odd on his tongue even after all this time, "-Jane, is both amused and exasperated by this. Often, at the same time."

"Well, in my experience, women are often amused and exasperated at the same time."

At least when they were talking to Josh.

"Anyway, Loki said you could teach me to smite? I brought coffee!"

Don't try to bribe the demigod, Josh.

"My brother would say such a thing," Thor said, with an exasperated sigh of his own. "Smiting is serious business, friend..." he trailed off, looking at Josh expectantly.

"I'd only smite the truly deserving," Josh assured him. "I'm very trustworthy. I worked for two presidents!"
