Criminal Justice- Monday- 1st period

This class was more or less going to take place in the classroom. Maybe. Kitty had done a runthrough of the syllabus and notes that she'd found for this semester and she had some questions.

"Good morning! Welcome to your actual first class," Kitty greeted them. "I'm going to be honest: despite my long history of superheroing, this class is based on notes from an old class I found and was kind of dying to try. So whoever this The Tick is, this is his fault."

This class was a narrative choice.

"So we're going to have questions to discuss," she continued. "There will also be ample opportunities for extra credit, and there are times this might just straight up be insane, so buckle up."

Well, that was...that was a bit of a loaded question, wasn't it? Or at least it felt that way, to Astrid, who just sort of blinked in response to it for a moment, tracing things back...and back...and back...

It wasn't easy, after all, slowly coming to the realization that the person who had been your entire world your entire life was slowly revealing herself to perhaps actually be the nefarious villain in your story.

But, for now, for this class, after casting a slight glance around the room, Astrid decided she didn't need to go back that far. Or at least she wasn't going to if she didn't have to.


"I was sort of just kidnapped by Krampus and held prisoner in a volcano for several days," she pointed out. And really didn't feel like elaboration, in this case, would be necessary.

And that was only the start of it! But it was a bit meatier than just having a car broken into, without getting into the marrow of your murderess mother conscripting you to foster care hell for the rest of your adolescent life.
