Faculty Meeting, Wednesday (After Classes)

Putting together a faculty meeting, Zoe realized, wasn't that different from putting together a Student Council meeting. Today, she'd set things up in the faculty lounge; there was food - donuts, coffee, and cold drinks - and clean chairs and tables for people to sit at. Once most of the staff had arrived and gotten something to eat, she went to the front of the room.

"Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you all for coming," she said. "I'll admit, I don't really have any business to talk about. This is more of an opportunity for you all to have a chance to talk to each other about how things are going, or about the students, or anything you might need from me and the others. Does anyone have anything to bring up?"

Cheryl was going to ignore the food and drinks, because she was rocking a hangover that was threatening to break open her skull. But she was here, because Pam had reminded her, and she was trying to stay awake, because she wasn't totally convinced that Zoe wasn't about to pull a Ms. Archer and scream at everyone. Better to be on alert for that kind of thing.

Cara had coffee and a donut in front of her, because you'd need caffeine and sugar too if bunch of squirrels decided they needed to explain 'the offside rule' instead of letting you go back to sleep.

Bond had a coffee but no pastries. Yet.

Electroclash was just here for the donuts.

And maybe some idle curiosity about what the teaching staff actually looked like these days. But mostly the donuts. She was trying to not get too much powdered sugar on her costume.

Bo wasn't totally sure where her position stood on the line between faculty and... Fosse, but somebody had to keep Anakin from force-choking anybody over a pastry, right?

Exactly: Bo was here for the doughnuts. Or at the moment, a cream-filled Long-John and facial reactions to same that were entirely inappropriate for a professional atmosphere.

Annnd here was Kate kind of feeling like an out of place kid again, cradling her cup of coffee between both hands like it was some kind of a security blanket.

This was just so weird. Being a grownup was weird.

"Oh my God, Bo." Kate was pretty super glad to see her, yeah. That already put Bo several steps above Fosse, at least if you asked Kate.

Also.

"... You need to get a room with that pastry."

I am being distracted from Con Panic by OMG [livejournal.com profile] justlurkinghere And [livejournal.com profile] fjordicswagger Will Be At Our House In Two Days Must Clean ALL THE THINGS Panic, luckily.

Or some other word that's like luckily but more neurotic.

Bo considered this, then shook her head.

And wiped cream off the corner of her mouth.

"That would make it too hard for the rest of them to join in when I'm done with this one."

Jack took two donuts and was contemplating a third as she eyed the rest of the room. Biotic metabolisms very much appreciated breakfast meetings.

"Greedy," Kate decided. "Also somewhat inappropriate."

She grinned.

"Hi."

"That's what I'm here for - to make everybody else feel more professional." Nope. Still the doughnuts. "Speaking of, look at you, all grown-up and responsible for the mental health and well-being of minors and shit."

She only said these things because it made her feel less freaked out at being responsible for the mental health and well-being of minors and shit.
vanillajello: (Do not get absurd.)

Kate rolled her eyes and looked wry. "Yeah, I don't know. I feel like I walked in the wrong door or something, I'm basically a kid. But, if Mitchell could do it, right?"

"You'll be great -- especially considering how much subject expertise you have in your class topic." Bo grinned. "And if you wanna feel less like a kid? Kenzi's teaching."

"... Isn't she like eleven years old?"

Yes, she felt older already.

Riley arrived and immediately grabbed for a donut. That took precedence over getting to know anyone. But, he did at least look attentive when the meeting started.
