Classics/Foreign Lit, Period 2, 4/11

Dream sat calmly behind his desk, waiting for students. When the classes arrived, he addressed them.

"You have a relatively calm day today, though not one without work. Foreign literature students, please select and read a story from the thousand and one nights, also known as the works of Scheherazade. We will discuss the stories you selected on Thursday. Classics students, you should still be working on your translations of works from Ovid's Metamorphoses.

I am here, should you have questions."

Read, translate, write notes, goof off, bug the teacher.

Anders, biting his lip and sporting a look of fierce concentration, plugs away at his translation with a bit more success today than he had on Thursday.

Janet worked steadily away at her translation for a while, before glancing over at Anders. "Want to get together outside of class and work on these some time?" she asked quietly. "We'd learn just as much working together, because we'd be helping each other out."

Anders looked back over and nodded. "Yeah. That might be a good idea. I could probably use some feedback on my word choice and stuff, too."

"So how are you doing with it today?" asked Janet. "But it would be better if we could check each other's work."

"Eh." Anders grimaced. "Better. I think I was trying too hard last week, getting too fancy. So a second opinion on that would be cool, y'know? Not sure I can help you out too much that way, though."

"You may work together in class, if you wish," Dream told them.

"Thanks, Professor," said Janet. She looked back at Anders. "Let's not do anything fancy. That's definitely going to get us in trouble. Want to trade? And I think you'll be able to help me out. A second opinion always helps."

OOC: Right login, finally. Oy.

John reads, translates, writes notes, goofs off, and then bugs the teacher. In that order. Bugging specifically about machine languages.

Dream looked weary. "How may I assist you?"

"I just wanted to explore the machine language more fully. I have examined the current books you gave me and was wondering if you had anything else." John doesn't want to disturb Dream, but... he was already there.

Dream shook his head in regret. //Machine languages are quite new,// he said, in Robot. //I have given you all the books that exist.//

//Do you feel you have learned from them?//

//I feel I have learned as much as I can from them. Data is not sufficient. If other information exists, then I am not aware of it.//

John pondered a minute.

//If retry does not compute and abort does not compute, then must contine. Else future errors will occur. Must fix inherent bugs in the system.//

You rang?
