Thomas left the care of the drunk student to another as his sister pulled him away. Hearing her tone, he knew right away she had something to say about his choice of topic with his classmates. “I was relaxed,” he argued calmly. “It’s not that I don’t want to be here, it’s just not that fun to me.” He shrugged. Partying and being wild had lost all its appeal after his first semester in college. At first, it had been great to finally experience everything their parents never let him do but then he realized, he didn’t care for most of it after all. He would still rather spend his time with his head in a textbook or in a lab than anywhere else.

“It’s not even that crazy it’s just...a dance,” Ophelia said but shook her head. Thomas and her were never really going to see eye to eye on topics. That was completely okay though because she almost loved that they had opposing views. It made things interesting and definitely gave her new perspectives that she would never think of before. “But I mean, I get it. The program the school has put on is kind of stupid, though you won’t catch me saying that to their faces. Forcing you to marry someone and covering it up with something like this does seem a little bit sketchy.” She said and shrugged a little. “How’re you holding up with it? Who did you end up getting as your partner?”

Thomas was talking to a group of STEM majors, they were all talking about a big mutual chemistry project that was due at the end of month. Not a typical conversation topic for a dance but not many of them actually cared to be there. He loved social events since he rarely got to participate in many before college but he still preferred events that had more practical purposes behind them. He and everyone else knew this dance was just a bandage for the disgruntled students.

“The TA for Dr. Hills actually told me that he wants to see—” The conversation was suddenly interrupted by a very inebriated student stumbling into the middle of their group, spouting words that probably only made sense in their own drunken mind. “Wow, you okay?”

Ophelia wasn’t doing much, granted as the chaperone there wasn’t much to do. College kids had the freedom to do whatever they wanted, she just had to make sure the underage ones didn’t drink and that everyone left when the event was over so it was a pretty boring night. Her eyes had just been watching all night and when they landed on her brother, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes playfully. Of course he was there talking about science at a dance. Of course he was there focusing on something completely studious when it was a time to let go.

It was only when the drunk student knocked into their group that they were broken up and she got the chance to go over and pull her brother to the side. “Thomas.” Effie said and looked at her brother with a smile. “Don’t you think you should be out there having fun and relaxing rather than standing here and talking about school?” she asked and rose an eyebrow. “I know this isn’t your typical scene but you could at least try to look like you want to be here.” she teased

avani was mortified. not only had she spilled coffee on someone in her rush to get to class, but she’d spilled coffee on a member of staff. although she didn’t immediately recognise the woman, the telltale lanyard and the severe lack of doorstop-thick textbooks (not to mention the lack of panic on her own face) would have given her away. avani wasn’t good with people in the first place. she was doubly not good with figures of authority, and triple not good when… well, she was kinda hot.

“not lost,” she squeaked, pulling herself up and disposing of the remnants of her cup. she really needed to get a reusable one at some point. ethical, green, all that shit. yeah, she needed to do that. later. “overslept. first class. i, are you sure you’re okay?” at least it hadn’t been a boiling hot drink, she supposed, otherwise she’d have scarred a member of staff. was that a kickable offence? could she be expelled?

“It’s the first day, professors kind of use this as an allowance day if you show up late or don’t show up. I wouldn’t stress too much about it.” She admitted and shrugged a little. She wasn’t like every professor but the ones she had talked to seemed to have the same policy about her. College professors a lot of the times were a lot more chill than teachers in high school had been because they understood. Plus, these kids were paying for their classes. If they wanted to show up, that was up to them. “I’m fine. It wouldn’t be the first time my clothes got covered in stuff considering what I teach and the coffee wasn’t that hot.” She said and looked down. It was a bummer but...she could clean the shirt. “What class are you headed to?”

she was late she was late she was LATE. avani couldn’t believe it. it was the first day of class. it was the first fucking class and she was already running five minutes late, and the fact she was quoting mulan to herself in her head was a problem in and of itself. of course, between ensuring she didn’t drop her laptop or her bag, balancing her coffee, and trying to remember how the end of the dishonour quote went, she wasn’t paying much attention to where she was going. one step, two step- t h u m p.

“oh. oh, my-” fuck. that coffee had cost her eight bucks, and now it was little more than an unwanted accessory on some poor soul. “i am so sorry. i, that, are you- are you okay?”

Effie didn’t have a class to teach until 11 am so she decided to just walk through campus, taking in everything. New school year, old and fresh students running around trying to find their classes, the sounds of the city surrounding them...everything was great. She absolutely loved being here on campus and she loved the energy of it all. Getting to teach was probably the best thing to ever happen to her and she wouldn’t trade it for a second, which is why the first day was always her favorite. Everything was so encapsulating and that’s probably why she wasn’t paying attention when someone slammed right into her. “Oh! No it’s okay, hon. Really.” Effie said and looked down at her shirt. Her favorite first day shirt all covered in coffee but it wasn’t a big difference from her clay caked shirts either. “It’s really okay. Are you okay? You seem like you’re in a rush? Are you lost?”

HISTORY

Ever since she was a little kid, Opehlia or Effie as she likes to be called loved art. Creating art, to her, felt like an escape. Not that she had anything to really escape from, she had a really good life, but reality in itself sometimes is too much. So even she needed that break. While she has a lot of favorite types of art, and ones that she loves to do as well, the go to one for her was pottery. Taking something that was just a gray blob of nothing and transforming it was amazing to her.

Like said earlier, she had a good life. She grew up in a small town and was always surrounded by children and she was always teaching them something, which is why she went to school to become one. She went to an art school and got her masters in education and off she went. She started in elementary school education but when she got offered the pottery class at River Valley, she couldn’t say no.

Since getting here, she’s loved to be a helpful listening ear. She knows a lot of students don’t have that person to guide them and she knows that a lot of them need it. While they’re adults and in college, they are all still learning so much about the world. She’s young herself and she sometimes feels like she’s not qualified enough to teach people her age about the world but she does it anyway and somehow she’s successful.

CONNECTIONS

“The Brainless Beauty” - She’s his kooky artsy aunt and he’s her fun, beautiful nephew. These two have been best friends since he was out of the womb. They’re close in age because her sister is much older than she is but it made for a great relationship. They love that they are on campus together and he even lives with her in her off campus house because it was a way to save money and get to take care of each other.

“The Prodigy” - She loves to see him work. She loves to see how smart he is and reach his potential and that is so great to her. That’s why she became a teacher. Part of her role though, as his professor, is to remind him to always be himself. He can often get lost in the glory of his genius and put on this front for everyone, forgetting himself in the dust. While she is just an art teacher, she’d like to say she knows something about that.

“The Academic” - Teacher romance cliche but honestly, they’re perfect for each other. They just don’t know it. They both have crushes on each other and go out of their way to talk as much as they can. Both of them are clueless though when it comes to feelings with each other and they both just assume the other has better options, so they remain in this cute flirtationship. Their students often urge them to date and they have even tried to set things up, and will continue to but nothing works.

“The Traveler.” - Even though they are professor/student, they often love to talk. Being an art professor, The Heart of Gold loves to talk to The Traveler about everything she has seen and experienced. It absolutely fascinates her and she tries to take inspiration in the things the Traveler tells her. To pay her back, The Heart of Gold gives her free pottery classes once a week just for fun because they like spending time together.
