The Art of Napping; Monday, First Period [07/27].

It was mostly the relative (albeit seemingly random and individualized) ease of the danger shop that saved Shunsui's students from having to do today's activity in the actual park, in the already building sumer heat, which may have been an extra annoyance for so many beginners. That, and the fact that he'd sort of forgotten about the whole 'informing the class of a relocation' thing, and by thet iem he remembered, he just couldn't be bothered. So the danger shop it was again, ironically, for a class on napping, but where else could he put together an almost perfect simulation of the park but with the most pleasant weather imaginable and the faint scent of cherry blossoms in the air with barely any additional effort on his part? And he was incredibly proud of himself, too, for how well he'd done with so little work.

he started class with a deep inhalation of that slightly-scented air and let it out with a happy sigh.

"Ahhh, the park ♥!" he said. "One of my favorite places on the island for a nap, although sometimes there are detriments to napping like weather that may get in the way ♥. Hardly a concern for a truly expert napper, but since most of you are just beginning on your journey toward nap excellence, I figured a more controlled environment might be fitting for today's lesson ♥. Which involves the incredibly versitile and often universal park bench nap ♥. There are many benches in our own dear little park here on this island, and I have gotten to know the benefits and issues with nearly all of them in my time here, and now it's up to you to experience some of those things for yourself ♥. Not every park bench is the same, and neither will your invidiual needs for a park bench. What is good for the gander might not always be good for the goose ♥! So today's class is to explore your various park bench options until you find one that is right for you, and then to go ahead and spend the rest of your class time practicing your actual napping ♥. Simple. Straightforward. Dedicated practice is always the right path toward success ♥!"

Or this was just an excuse to spend the morning napping in a park without the summer heat.

It was all about perspective, really...

As someone who was fairly familiar with these benches from the perspective of which were good for leaping off of, Freya was mildly impressed by how well they seemed to match up to the actual thing.

She didn't know exactly how that would translate into finding one good for napping, but she was going to sort of take a moment to leap between them, as if a certainly landing might be a good way to judge her choice. She finally settled on one that settled underneath some taller trees...ones that would be easy to leap up into even from a prone position, and then settled to take a moment to figure out exactly how one was expected to get comfortable on a bench for sleeping, which she felt would be tricky with her size. But Captain Kyōraku was actually about the same height as she was, and bulkier, so if he could manage it...

Freya was thinking she was not a fan of bench napping so far.
