Prescribed Recreation part 3: Chillax'n with a Vengeance

[fleurdesel]

Who: House 44, House 46, House 3, Saori, Steve Rogers, and whoever wanders in
What: Movie night on the beach
When: September 9th, in the evening
Where: The Beach
Summary: After an unfortunate tussle with a Chaos God, work on a farm, a swarm of refugees and stress piled upon stress, sometimes all anyone wants is to sit back and watch classic movies.
Rating: PG for possible adult language
Something that everyone could agree on was this: the past three weeks had been several shades of stressful. What they needed, what they all needed was something mindless and relaxing shared in the company of those they care for in a neutral environment. The beach works well enough, and it's not that far a trip for anyone involved.

Wonderful. [Look out vegetables! There's a hungry Supernova coming your way.]

Aa... yes. Most people back home don't... have much. [This is not something he terribly wants to get into discussing but there are the nobility and the rich, and then there's everyone else. Some areas were more prosperous than others, true, but one definitely saw the divide. One of the reasons there were so many pirates back home.] But anyway, I'm looking forward to it myself. They sound like they will be interesting from what you're saying.

Are you a teacher back in your home?

[ Helios moves over to the table to get some chips and some of those veggies too. Delicious! He'll bend down and give Luminair some carrots and celery with ranch dressing. He knows when a subject is a touchy one, so he doesn't press Law to talk about it anymore. Instead he smiles a little and nods. ]

Mm, yes. Well a headmaster. I-I run the school...it's been in my family for a rather long time, so. [ He shrugs and smiles. ] I suppose it's...in my blood to take it up after my mother and father.

[Law has to sternly remind himself that other people want the vegetables and not to eat them all. To eat slowly.

Shounen metabolisms sometimes suck.]

Oh, I can understand that. [Lots of things and positions were inherited in his world.] What does your school teach? General studies or something a little more specific?

[Law is question central right now - all part of getting to know you. Stalking journal entries and hearing about a person secondhand could only tell a guy so much.

And he is curious about the man after he heard from Lupin about the whole Apep fiasco. So getting to know you it is.]

[folklorist]

General studies. And we have lots of different electives as well. [ And lots of different students, but he doesn't touch upon that quite yet. ]

[deathsdoctor]

[Law nods.]

And it's open to anyone?

[He's going to clarify why he asked that.]

School's a luxury back in my world as well. People generally teach you the basics, but most people are apprenticed into a trade when they are very young.
