Rabbit Doubt

Are these a thing anymore?

I have a Supernatural and a Harry Potter one lying around.

I still kind of hope Mike Rowe runs for president.

"Leorin, might I have a word, please?" Her God Studies professor's smooth, rich baritone drew Leorin from her book. While it might not have seemed odd to be reading before class, her selection, Melee Weapons of the Mayan Empire, was a little more unusual. As she closed the book, slipping a worn bookmark between the pages, Leorin eyed the man who called to her. He was not a professor who typically remained on her radar. He was not one to send her to detention, but he certainly was not her biggest fan either. In short, she expected to fly by unnoticed for yet another year. Therefore, his request struck her as problematic. If she had learned anything since joining the Academy three years earlier, it was that 'can I have a word' was code for 'you're in trouble.' It was the first hour of the first day. If she already pissed someone off, it must be a new record.

She shoved back from her desk, found her feet, and sauntered over to the professor's desk. "What's up?" came her answer, hands lazily slipping into the pockets of her vest.

His brilliant blue eyes were already weary as he regarded her with a small frown. Then, he worked his expression into one of more cheerful optimism; she could tell it hurt him a little, so she had to respect him for the effort. "It's the start of a new term," he told her, "so let's make sure we're setting ourselves up for success. Starting out strong."

It all sounded like something he ripped off a motivational calendar. Besides, why was he telling her all that before class even started? For all he knew, she was a changed woman. Maybe she found herself over the summer, and returned a far more studious student.

Nah, he knew better. And maybe she had to respect him for that too. Leorin loosed a small shrug, and offered a small smile of her own. "You got it."

As she returned to her seat, actually considering putting forth some effort for his sake, she realized that she forgot to bring both paper and a pencil. Starting off strong. She snorted.

It's 2017. Work at many schools or one of the vast majority of colleges in America, and you can do just that. :p

@ArenaSnow

I should mention that I'm not a totally awful teacher.

I feel your pain. I tend to get bursts of inspiration late at night. It'll be 11:30, I'm about to go to sleep, and then a great idea pops into my mind. Either I ignore it and the steam is gone the next morning, or I spend two hours writing in the middle of the night and I'm a wreck the next morning. There's no winning.

Maybe I'm a were-author. Inspired writer by night, incompetent scrub by day.

@Lalliman

I always get my inspiration while I'm teaching. Something a student does or says, or the material, makes me think of a really great scene. And then I'm stranded there, because I can't very well say "alright kids, work on your own while I start writing a post." Then after school, I'm too tired to actually write. It's a shame.

Spam

I think there's like three people here from the old spam.

@ineffable Another question! Are the teachers NPCs that we writers can use? As in, could I write a conversation between Leorin and her teacher? So long as I don't do anything ridiculous? :)

( T R I A D ) : 2nd
( T Y P E within Triad ): Powers
( M A J O R P O W E R ): Weapon Creation - Leorin can create a weapon by shaping existing energy, and wield it with expert proficiency. She can only create one weapon at a time. At present, her armory is limited to a handful of melee weapons - a couple of swords, a staff, and a war hammer. She is working to expand this ability. Her preference is the two-handed claymore. Leorin's weapons are not permanent once they are created, and they rely on her ability to control the energy she has harnessed. Leorin has found that extreme mood swings, such as intense bouts of anger, can decrease their durability. When especially enraged, her weapon can disappear entirely, leaving her defenseless until she calms herself. Leorin is working on controlling her emotions to better harness the energy around her. She recognizes, albeit begrudgingly, that she will never increase her armory or her power until then.
( M I N O R P O W E R ): None as of yet.



* P E R S O N A L I T Y * : Leorin's father once told her that the only rules that truly bind us are the rules we create for ourselves. Since then, she has lived her life by that mantra. She is stubborn, strong willed, and determined to succeed in the areas she deems most important. Protecting the Heavens is at the top of that list, while her schooling is at the bottom. She is moody and quick to anger, but to say she is entirely insufferable would be unfair, as she occasionally does open up to people whom she trusts. Leorin has a strong moral compass, but it is not necessarily dictated by the laws of society, which often gets her into some trouble. She does not make friends easily, but when she does, she sticks. Unfortunately, she can also hold a grudge when she feels she has been wronged, and will cut out the "toxic" entity from her life without a second thought.
* F A M I L Y / R E L A T I O N S H I P S *: Raised by two Powers angels.
* R O O M M A T E *: (leave empty until assigned)
* H I S T O R Y *: Leorin's entire life has been about fighting the demons, and protecting those who need protection. While some might see this as a selfless, righteous act, her parents told her only stories of war and death. If you are not strong enough, they assured her, you will not survive. With this in mind, Leorin trained relentlessly from a young age. Her parents were often away, which worked to nurture her independence and grit. She did not need someone telling her how to prepare, or how to fight, or how to live her life. As such, she has struggled within the confines of the Angel Academy. While never outright malicious, her opinionated and headstrong tendencies have put her in detention more than once. Some educators adore her wit and passion, while others merely see it as a nuisance. Needless to say, Leorin and the headmistress are plenty familiar with each other.

Sounds good! I'll get a first post put together too. :)

Checking in

Good to hear from you again! Sorry to hear about the wedding. I hope everything is sorted out.

I'm good. It had been ages since I'd logged into the Guild myself. Since I was last here, I got married, adopted a puppy, finished my masters program, and completed year two of teaching. :)
