Team! Synergy! [Thursday, 1st Period)

[magnusrushesin]

Class today had pillows and blankets like a perfectly reasonable thing for teaching.

Perfectly. Reasonable.

"I feel like I'm in the future," Magnus said from a blanket burrito. "Am I living in the future?"

"...no." Cara wasn't under any blankets, but she did look like she wished she hadn't gotten out of bed.

Blanket burrito was the best way to be. "Oh. But we still get to nap, right?"

"Yes, there will be naps." Way to make it sound like the kids had a choice about it, Cara.

"Today is about... Self care?" He made that into a question somehow.

"You can't care for the team until you care for yourself." That's what Cara was going with.Mostly she was just tired.

"Exactly!" They were such good teachers.

Truly they were.

"Well, you don't get to drive her until I know you're going to treat her like a lady, but there's room for two if you're willing to hold on and get cozy," Yang replied. "--and I seriously mean hold on."

Because Yang drove like, well, a girl who'd passed Skywalker's flying class by zooming around Endor at high speeds with Peebee riding/shooting shotgun.

"Oh," said Prompto, who wouldn't have been able to wipe that grin off his face even if he tried, "I can hold on."

Good luck ever getting him to let go, Yang...

"Well, then, got any plans after class, cowboy?" she asked, putting her hand on her hip. "Assuming we, like, don't fall asleep in this epic fort, because I don't think our illustrious teachers would remember to wake us up."

And somehow, the grin managed to find a way to be even more persistent, though he really did try to rein it in this time, shaking his head and wondering just how many of the ridiculous butterflies in his stomach was showing in his expression.

"Nope, I got nothing," he said, throwing in a shrug to do everything he possibly could to seem oh-so-casual and not at all just ready to kick down the fort, abandon the class entirely, and get going right then. "Open as open can be."

And even if he did have something else going on, he probably would have said the same thing.

"Then it's a date," Yang said breezily, picking up some pillows. "After we've demonstrated our mastery of forts."


ngl I started snickering at 'get going right then' because my brain lives in the gutter.
