fandomhigh | Tao of a Silly Old Bear, Monday, Period Two

For a guy teaching a class about Tao, Kanan looked maybe more than a little harried this morning. Of course, he was soaked up past his knees and his copy of the book he was teaching from didn't seem to be faring any better.

"So, I went to bed Friday night, woke up to squirrels telling me I'm late for my Monday radio shift, and nearly had to swim to work today," he drawled. "Apologies if this isn't the most put-together of classes. I'd had a plan for this one, it had involved the park, but the park is currently underwater, so we're going to just sit here on the school lawn and... contemplate the water or..."

He looked out at the town, flooded as it was.

"... Or something."

Sigh.

"This week's lesson," he added, "is a simple one, at least. It's about the value of learning, of putting one's faith entirely in study, versus learning from life experience." He shrugged. "Basically, don't put all of your faith in what you've been taught. Having faith in what you've learned for yourself is important, too."

A pause.

"Here is where I'd have some activity about 'Twosday,' spelled with a two, or the letter A, but my book is too soggy to open for reference," sigh, "so let's..." He waved a hand vaguely toward the water. "Talk about this. Talk about how research from books might help a non-aquatic person to adapt to a largely amphibious lifestyle, versus lessons that you might have learned for yourself this morning since waking up to it." He paused, and then added, "And if anybody has any suggestions for taking my dog for a walk while the island's flooded like this, I'm all ears."

Priorities.

"I am," she confirmed, mid-getting hugged. "Ii guess. I don't remember much of it."

"You were, like, amazing," Nina bubbled happily, giving one more squeeze and then letting go. "I have pictures if you want to see what you looked like????????????????"

"Sure," she said, because she remembered that, but also wanted a non-fuzzy perspective on what her armor looked like. "How many pictures did you end up taking?"

"So many pictures," Nina said as she got her phone out and flipped through her albums. "Like, I'm no where near as good at picture-taking as Prompto, but some of them turned out pretty okay???????????? Here, here's the ones of you?????????????"

She offered Sabine her phone.

"I knew I should try that hair sometime," Sabine said as she looked. ""It's good to know I get that old ."

"Yeah, it was really great seeing you," Nina said earnestly. "And, like, your older self, when I asked about if she'd say anything to you, all she said was 'she's got this'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Well, I do," Sabine said matter-of-factory. She didn't second guess herself much.

"You do and you will," Nina had to agree, with a bit of a laugh. "I envy you that confidence!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"The alternative's no fun, so I like the option that goes better for me," Sabine reasoned.
