Shop Class; Wednesday, Third Period [11/02].

So the thing about having a very small class was that it was kind of noticeable when one of the students wasn't there. Because one of the students was literally half the class.

"But he is here!" Graham cheerfully informed her, lifting up his arm to prove it. "He's just a bat!"

The bat on his arm who was allegedly Guillermo let out a few sleepy squeaks, because he was already starting to feel much more nocturnal.

"He just said hello," Graham translated, helpfully. "This has been really helpful for me brushing up on my bat language!"

And Amaya was just going to take a moment to massage her forehead and try to reroute her plan for the class, because she was about to send them into another multi-class unit, but, somehow, she didn't think teaching a bat how to whittle would be very effective, but that whittling lead into some other things, so she took a moment to consider what they haven't really worked on that wouldn't leave Guillermo in the lurch for the next few classes.

She dropped her hand and considered Graham for a moment. "You wanna learn how to do pottery?" she offered.

"Boy, do I!"

Would he have said that to practically anything Amaya proposed? Probably. But he also followed it up with, "Will Guillermo be able to do pottery, too?"

And Amaya sighed, because she knew this meant she'd be spending the first part of class trying to put together a bat-sized pottery wheel, but you know what? Maybe the squirrels could also get some good use out of it. "We'll see what we can do," she said. "Innovation is the name of the game, right? Let's make some pots."
