Faculty Meeting (Friday after classes)

[bigdamnprincipal]

After the student council cleared out, Zoe got the council room set up for yet another meeting, hoping all the teachers had gotten her handwavey email. Sure, classes had only been in session for a week, but she figured it was a good idea to check the new teachers for shell shock early. There were warm food and drinks set out (not the leftovers from the student council... at least, not totally) but nothing alcoholic. If people wanted to go that route, they would have to bring their own this time.

"Hello there, come on in and have a seat if you'd like," she said. "I thought it might be good for everyone to have a chance to get together without students around, and be inside where it's warm. I hope everyone's had a good first week. If you haven't, well, now you have a room full of people to vent to." It was the little things that helped make this job better.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr why Eliot why must you be so stubborn? WHY!?

Parker was not meeting your eyes, she was attempting to do a pretzel-pull-her-head-into-her-skin-turtle-move.

Yeah. Sure. Eliot was totally the stubborn one. "You suck at food, Parker. You wanna feed these kids every class, fine. But jolly ranchers and cheetos are not food!"

"You eat them, so they're food!" Do not try to confuse her on this! She knows from edible vs. inedible! She's eaten a lot of stuff that some people called inedible, she knows! "So what can I feed them?"

[vdistinctive]

"No, you eat them because you're a humming bird." Eliot pulled his hair back and huffed. "Give 'em something they can't just buy at the damn Quick Stop for a dollar. Even better, make 'em work for it. Stick it behind a locked door. I'm guessin' Archie didn't just hand you candy at the end of a lesson."

"Well. No." Parker smiled in fond memory of those lessons. "First I had to get the ice cream sundae from in between the laser beams. Then I had to get back to Archie to get the spoon... Oh. I see. Not just a prize for doing stuff, but for doing it right." Aha! Okay, that made sense.

[vdistinctive]

Eliot wanted to argue that it wasn't about it being a prize at all, so much as giving the students a goal -- but he knew enough to quit while he was ahead. "Something like that, yeah."

"So if they break into the safe the right way, the nachos are still intact."

Now she's just trolling you.

[vdistinctive]

"Fresh nachos." Please. Eliot and Hardison basically taught Parker how to mess with people. "If rhey open the safe creatively."
