Photography [8/16]

Veronica arrived after her students, wearing dark glasses and carrying what might possibly be the largest mug of coffee ever invented. A wee bit too much sake last night? Quite possibly. She pointedly did not look at Cally, Al or Stark.

"Um, here's handouts," she said, shoving the stack at someone to pass out to the rest of the class. "We're learning about night photography. You can go to the astronomy workshop tonight if you want to know what you're taking pictures of. I don't have a lecture, so just read at your leisure. I also can't stand the smell of chemicals this morning, so you're on your own in the darkroom. When you're all done in there, you can come back out and brainstorm for next week's prompts."

As soon as they headed in to the darkroom, Veronica put her head down. She realized that was a bad idea when the room started spinning. Why had she drunk so much sake last night?

The coffee helped her feel marginally better by the time her students were done in the darkroom (so did a couple trips to the little girls room).

"Okay, brainstorming. This week's prompts are Star, Shadow and Sad. Discuss."

Veronica really hoped no one wanted to talk to her after class, because all she wanted to do was go back to bed.

Alphonse went ahead and developed his photos for metal (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y188/duskino/fh_photo-04.jpg), fear (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y188/duskino/fh_photo-05.jpg), and technology (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y188/duskino/fh_photo-06.jpg).

After developing his pictures, Stark walked over to Al and held out the sake bottle photo with a grin.

"For fear," he said simply.

As soon as Alphonse saw, he broke out into a grin. "Appropriate choice."

Stark nodded, still grinning. "I thought so. It inspired some fear last night. Or good imitations of fear."

"Yeah, and..." After remembering last night further, Alphonse put a hand over his face. Maybe Stark wouldn't notice him turning red that way. "Iamsoveryverysorryaboutthatlastgame."

Darkroom lighting tend to make skin look strange colors, so Al blushing wasn't terribly obvious. And Stark was currently more amused by the whole thing than anything else.

"We should have had more to drink," Stark said with a shrug. "Worked for everyone else. But it could have been worse. Much, much worse."

"A part of me wishes I had," Alphonse admitted. "But you're right, and at least it was just harmless, um, fun, I guess."

"It was harmless," Stark agreed. The fun he wasn't so sure about, but it was amusing him now at least. "Definitely harmless. Unless you've been incubating some horrible contagion. You haven't been, have you?"

Alphonse gave Stark an odd look. "As far as I know you're safe," he replied. "I don't normally drink willingly anyway, so I certainly wouldn't be doing so if sick."

Stark was unfazed by the look. He was very used to odd looks.

"See? Definitely harmless then."

Stark developed his photos. Metal had been easy enough. After last night, he'd been in a strange sort of mood and had taken this picture for fear. He should have put the bottle on its side. And then there was technology.
