“You and me both.” Tate replied, waiting as she gathered her things. When she signaled that she was ready he gave a small nod, turning around and leaving her office. Glancing around the hallway he pointed to the left. “I think I came from that way?” He guessed looking over at her.

Mar nodded when he pointed. “That would make sense, exit’s around the corner.” She motioned towards the side of the building. “I swear this whole campus is a maze.” She mentioned softly while walking.

Hey all! I’m back! I am planning on continuing old threads for now but if you want to drop, message me please :) Look forward to meeting all the new faces!

“this place is a maze and all the buildings look identical if you ask me.” the male confesses, there is a faint hint of frustration in his voice. “floor one, room 121.” nodding his head he repeats the few bit of words once more just to reconfirm with himself. “–could you really? i would really appreciate it, that is if you aren’t too busy. last thing i would want is to inconvenience you. i’ve already wandered in here with the lost puppy look.” 

“It’s really not a big deal. I promise it looks like a lot more papers and busy work than it actually is.” Mar said. She made sure that everything was neat enough to be left alone after making a few last marks on the paper in her hand. “Let’s be off then, I’ll be sure to get you there in a timely manner.”

“Alright, if you’re sure. That’d be great.” Tate said with a slight nod and a small smile. “Although if I did get lost it’d definitely be my fault. This campus is very confusing. But yeah, it’d probably be easier if you showed me.” He accepted her offer, glad that he wouldn’t be just wandering around anymore.

“Yeah, I really wonder who they let design these types of things,” Mar said with a shrug. She quickly grabbed her bag, making sure everything was roughly in order before the pair left. “After you then,” She gestured towards the door with a small smile.

“It can be pretty frustrating, but I try to let it go over my head” Noelle mused with a shrug. She didn’t like confrontation, so tried to avoid it if she could. “I’ll be teaching 5 to 10 year olds in two groups. So it should be fun” She loved that age range, and she couldn’t wait to get started

“That does sound like a lot of fun. It’s a good thing they’re pretty much old enough to not need you to care for them every step of the way.” Mar said. “I can’t imagine having enough patience to work with like two-year-olds... I do enough babysitting as is and I lecture at the college.”

“Yeah, his parents are loaded and wanted a legit wedding and the other guy I guess wanted to have it be before he is redeployed so they’re having it sooner rather than later.” Getting everything done within a small three week period had Cyn practically pulling her hair out but you gotta do what you gotta do right? “Hi Mar. I just wanted to make sure nothing would interfere with his work. He seems to really like your class.”

“I see. That makes enough sense I suppose.” Mar nodded her head. It seemed like an awful lot of pressure to put on a wedding planner but that was their job, right? “Well, I’m glad to hear that, always nice. We don’t have any tests or papers due which is good but I would like him to keep up with notes and such. Let him know I'll be emailing him the powerpoints tomorrow for all the time he’ll be gone. He can always contact me with further questions.”

“So, you’re like a T.A. or an actual professor?” They didn’t know how anything worked here. A college campus may as well have been Mars with how foreign it was. They grew up too poor and too average to ever even entertain the idea of school after high school. “I don’t go here,” Jess said, “but the library’s supposed to be open to the public, so.” They let the sentence hang for a second, then hoisted the strap of their messenger bag better on their shoulder. “Fourth floor, yea?”

“It’s called ‘adjuncting’ but I am considered an actual professor... at least I really hope I am.” Mar laughed mostly to herself. She paused, trying not to make a weird face. The other was certainly young enough to be a student and it was rare to see someone else in the area. “Oh sorry for assuming, I suppose I should have asked, and yes it is open to everyone.” She said. “But yes, fourth floor.”

Adam always carried the distinct scent of bad boy with him wherever he went— old leather, motor grease, the sour stench of pubescent boy– but today he carried another smell that would’ve been effectively hidden if it weren’t for his sloppy zig-zagging down the strip. Intoxication wafted off of him like how the sweet smell of sugar would waft off of a cake and clumsiness became him as he ricocheted off of a lamp post. “Pretty shoes,” he hollered as he leered further down the sidewalk at a dark smear in the distance, his grin lop-sided and cocky. “I like your hair. Wanna see a magic trick?”

Mar groaned and rolled her eyes. She really didn’t have time for this on a day like today. She looked over at the person who had called out to her and she felt her blood go cold. Hopefully, he wouldn’t recognize her. “I... uh... thanks.” She ran a hand through it subconsciously. “But, unless that magic trick teleports me to work, no not really.” She said forcing an awkward smile.

“It’s fine, don’t worry about it.” He gave the girl a small smile. “Oh…shoot. Alright, Community Center got it. If you’re not busy that’d be great actually — but you seem busy. It’s fine, I’m sure I’ll be able to find it.”

“I’m not that busy, really. It just looks like a lot of papers.” Mar said smiling. “I would just feel bad if you got even more lost because of my advice. besides, i need to get out of this office.” She stood up from her chair, pushing aside the stack of papers.

I like the idea of you and me. You know, us, together. Two little lost souls who finally found themselves in the paragraphs of a story that only we will ever fully understand.

“Sure. You’re a teacher here?” Jess felt sorry for her students. Seems like it might suck to have such a hardass for a professor. “Yea,” they said distantly, not reciprocating the attempt at a smile, “but, I just came from there. Got a little lost, I guess.”

“Yes, I’m teaching introductory physics while working on my doctorate,” Mar said shrugging her shoulders. “I know this place can be confusing. I used to get lost quite a lot but now I practically live here so...” She paused fro a second, lost in her own mind. “Hopefully you find your way back safely. I’d escort you but I don’t think we’ve gotten on too well. Good luck with your studies.”

“Sorry to interrupt — “ Tate started, peeking his head through the door. He glanced down at his outfit, clearly he was not a student. “Um no, I’m just looking for the student activity center. I’m supposed to be setting up there and the email I got didn’t really give me any directions.”

“Oh... oh my gosh. I’m so sorry, I wasn’t even paying any attention.” Mar said, trying not to make herself look like the idiot she felt like. “Unfortunately for you, this is the wrong building. You’re going to want to be in the Community Center which isn’t too far from here. I can help show you around?”
