Disaster! Or Opportunity, Actually? [Monday, 1st Period]
Your teachers were actually on time today, enjoy the novelty! Also class was being held in Cafe Fina for some reason!
"We thought we'd start small on disasters," Aphra said. "Close to home as it were, because you need to build to the big ones."
"They creep up on you," Isabela agreed. "Just lurking out of view, like some ominous weirdo outside your window at night who needs to learn a few things about boundaries." Unlike her who knew plenty about boundaries, she just didn't care about them.
Aphra took a moment to process that simile. "In any case one of the most familiar disasters you'll encounter is the bad date, including its even worse cousin the bad blind date, where interfering friends have decided you'll hit it off with some random, and then you don't. Proving your friends know nothing about your taste in people. Not that I've ever actually had that problem." Whether this was because Aphra was a delight, the bad date, or just didn't have any friends was up for debate.
"Anyway, pull up a chair at one of the tables and figure out how you're going to salvage something from your breakfast date," Isabela told them cheerfully. "Even if it's just a free breakfast!"
