Non-Deadly Heroics, Monday, Period Two
Aphra and Isabela had told the class to meet them outside the Perk for today's class, and both of them looked worse for wear but also extremely pleased with themselves.
"Now, kids, if for some bizarre reason you didn't see the appeal of becoming a pirate and are still intent on the whole hero business," Isabela started. "One very important thing about staying an alive hero is that living heroes get to enjoy things like this."
Aphra pushed the door open and waved the class into the Perk, before she and Isabela followed them in. Once they entered, the Perk fell silent for a moment before one of the baristas started slowly clapping, they were soon followed by the rest of the staff and before you knew it the patrons were also on their feet applauding them. The barista who started this all came over to shake their hands, and while their voice couldn't really be heard over the noise, there was something about free drinks for life?
Eventually, Aphra waved the cheering crowd into silence. Or at least a lower volume. "Look, no hero type will ever get into the business for the adulation, at least, not that they'll admit to, but if you do something heroic, it's nice to be around after for people to appreciate you."
"Just something to think about," Isabela said, gesturing grandly around the room. "Enjoy a drink and talk with each other about whether you'd prefer to be commemorated or celebrated."
