Construction 101; First Period, Friday [06/15].
"Morning, everyone," Amaya greeted the class stoutly with a nod. "Sorry about last week, but, as I'm sure most of you have realized, the Island was going through one of its little ...things, and it couldn't be helped. Still, despite the obstacle, you all did a great job. If you need me to go over anything I attempted to go over last week, just let me know, I'll be happy to go over it again, this time even loud enough for you to hear me."
She was smiling faintly, somewhat pained, since fourteen year old her was much harder to avoid the after-effects of than seven year old her had been. She didn't exactly appreciate the forced perspective into her childhood, but what could be done about it? Nothing, so it was best to just move on.
"And today we'll be doing more framing, anyway, focusing now on the apartment upstairs, getting all those walls framed and erected. Second verse, a little different than the first, and teamwork's going to be important here, because those walls are heavy, and we're a little higher up, so the wind's going to play a factor, too. Once you got a wall up...and, of course, I've already got 'em together for you and marked where they go, take turns holding and nailing, and I'll help, too, because an extra set of hands in a job like this rarely hurts."
"Any questions?" she asked, looking around to field any that there might be. "Alright, then," she pounded a fist into her other hand, then quirked her thumb toward the second floor, "gear up, climb up, and let's get to work!"
