Video/Action if near the shop

[Ingrid's sitting in a small coffee shop, hands around a steaming mug. She's looking rather perkier than usual.]

It looks as though I've missed quite a few event this last week or so. I apologize, but it seems you younger folk weren't so bad at taking care of it. Even though two of you were kidnapped. [A pause as she sips her drink.] Are you two alright, by the way? I'd hate to hear two of my potential students are still shaken by the events.

Yes, students. It seems the local high school has given me a teaching position. I'm to take over a few science classes. I do hope to see many of you there. [Her tone implies that's more of an expectation than a hope.]

I'm also a little concerned that they allowed me the job considering my lack of credentials in this world. Have any of the rest of you encountered something like this yet?

At the very least, I'll attend unless completely incapacitated. Generally, showing up to classes tracking blood in is a bad idea, but otherwise you can expect me every day.

If you're incapable of coming, I'd rather you stay home and heal. I don't quite like my students dying because they pushed themselves to hard. Though I do expect a certain amount of dedication to my class.

I was president of the student council at home - if it's possible to get the work sent home, I'll make up for what I can.

[You humans and your coffee. Brilliant invention, that one. And today one glasses-wearing Lancer happened to be wandering by with a book under one arm and a cup of said coffee in his hand.]

...It wasn't just me, then? Truly, I'm still a little stunned--I secured a job without so much as any form of identification.

[Which he had counted as good fortune, considering he had arrived with absolutely no money whatsoever. Turned out that was kind of necessary in these places.]

[Ingrid gestures to the seat across from her, shaking her head.]

I'm not sure what I think about it. It might be working out well in some regards, but I wonder how far it reaches. Just who is getting what positions, and what could that mean for the rest us?

[Lancer sat down with a faint sigh, adjusting his glasses.]

I hadn't yet considered that. Though I assume they wouldn't just give any unknown newcomer a position of actual power. Fate forbid the city or country descend into utter chaos.

I'll make sure to attend your class.

...I thought it's simple to get a part-time job here in America. [He haven't really try back home.]

I would hope you would.

Getting a teaching position is vastly different from something part-time. For one, I should have had a record pulled on me. It's disturbing to think they aren't checking in on who they are allowing around children.

If they're not doing that, how do they know who's safe and reliable? Not that you're not going to hurt or be terrible, but you know what I mean!

Oh.... it is unfortunate I am too old for Scholam, I wouldn't mind attending.

[Wryly] I'm always open for tutoring.

[video]

[greyerrant.livejournal.com]

Sounds good. What are your instructions, and when should we meet?

[video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

[ An annoyed look. ]

... classes? School? Ha, I haven't gone to school in a while. What makes you think I feel up to going anytime now?

[video]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Because you look like you're at the age that it is required.

[video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

Required... right. I didn't go to school back home. Why would I start going now?

[needsteaplz.livejournal.com]

They don't take a look at credentials? That is rather odd.

I guess that gives me some hope in trying to see if the high school would take in as cafeteria help. I keep hearing the meals over there are awful.

[video]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Bad cafeteria meals seem universal. I'm sure it shouldn't be too hard to get a position there, Miss..?

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

Credentials? Not sure what'cha mean, Ms. Barnes. I'm guessing it's something to do with getting a job, but... [She shrugs.]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

One usually needs a college degree and a background check, among other things before getting a position in a school. [As an afterthought.] It's Mrs.

[realitywarper.livejournal.com]

You're one of the teachers? You have got to be kidding me.

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Do I look like I'm joking?

[crownedexorcist]

I'll do my best to [not get too lost and be late] attend your class.

[Video]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

And I hope your best effort will be enough.

[toomanypetals.livejournal.com]

...I'm fine. Too old to be a student, though.

[Hi old bat. Sorry I tagged in so late.]

[Video]

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

Oh? I'm glad to hear that. It must have been quite the blow to end up in that position.

Are you? I would have pegged you as a teenager, but my perception may just be off due to age.
