Creative Inspirations, Monday, Period One
"Good morning," Hannibal greeted the class. "I hope you all had an interesting and relaxing weekend. Today, we have a rare opportunity, and will be visiting the castle of Sammezzano, in Tuscany. It was built in the mid nineteenth century as a retreat by a marquis; all of the materials were created locally, and the entire thing was designed by him to echo styles of art and architecture from around the world, though he never himself left Italy."
He held up a hand. "These days, the castle has suffered significant wear, and is in the process of being restored. It is rarely open to the public. Please be careful and respectful while you are there."
After that, you weren't his concern.
//Unless a guide specifically tells you that you can touch it... please don't touch it,// Jono added, a bit wryly. //This place is something of a treasure, and we're allowed in by virtue of the fact that we're a fairly small group as it is.//
And that Hannibal was very persuasive.
Also that.
//You can feel free to take photos, though. Just don't detour too far from us if you'd like a closer look at something. Let us know what you're up to, and we'll try to get you as close as we can.//
Respectfully.
"The guides will mostly speak some English, but their primary language is Italian, if you know it. If you have a problem speaking with or understanding them, let me know."
And with that, the portal opened, and the students were ushered on through.

But since he couldn't quite get over that one little thing, he was writing a guitar arrangement back in the classroom that was intended specifically to be played in large, enclosed spaces.

Which was not a feeling he enjoyed much.
Though at least he repressed the urge to graffiti all over it... mostly by virtue of not bringing anything. "Wish I had a Sharpie," he muttered under his breath.
Re: Create!
Why he spent the rest of the class adding little shaded black figures to that drawing, caught in various postures of pain or sadness, he was in no mood to explain.

And then plug her phone into her portable charger pack and keep taking pictures.
Re: Create!
At least, she hoped that was the end result.
