01.50 - week one, saturday

W1 SATURDAY
The first week of the Personal Enrichment Course draws to a close, which means it’s time for the first lesson. Hopefully by now you’ve gotten to know your classmates a bit better - but if you haven’t, that’s okay.

This first lesson is just going to be teamwork exercises, after all.

Bright and early Saturday morning, you wake up. Maybe you had a good night’s rest, or maybe you hardly got any sleep... Either way, the sun is shining, the day is beginning, and Lorelei's voice suddenly comes through everyone's tablets as well as the P.A. system on campus.

”Good morning. All students must report to the lecture hall by 8 o’clock for their first lesson. Lessons are mandatory. Please report to the classroom with its doors open.”

Which gives you about thirty minutes, so it’d be best to hurry. Do you want to be tardy? And if you think about bailing, well… you know what might happen if you fail the course.

When everyone gathers in the same hall they awoke in, Florence is there to greet you. They will gesture for everyone to take a seat, and once seated, the projector in the room turns on. Say hello to Lorelei and her usual cup of coffee.

“Good morning, everyone. Welcome to your first official exercise; today’s activities are designed to emphasize teamwork and cooperation so you are all more prepared for dealing with what’s yet to come. I have already split you into teams for the day, via raffle. There will be two activities total, and you will be completing them in the same teams. Regardless of whether you get along with your teammates or not, you’re going to have to figure out a way to finish each exercise successfully.”

She keeps that same calm, collected smile on her lips as she props up what appears to be a tablet of her own on her desk.

W-Why else would anyone take up smoking? You should at least have the same pose they do in the movies...

[Still waving his hand and sleeve in front of his face, flapping away all the smoke. He seems thoughtful for like, a split-second before it goes away and he just looks offended again.

What kind of manners is second-hand smoke!!! Hanazawa taught you better than this, Kawase!!]

I don't think Minakami knows anything about this sort of thing.

I'll take that into consideration for next time.

[ Cause there will be a next time. ]

I was just trying to tell you not to lose your head, even if this assignment was made for you. You're welcome.

Next time you better mind your manners! Or I'm leaving!

[No he won't, he's just being peevish. Kawase has been blowing smoke at him for way too long but considering Tamamori blows metaphorical smoke and mirrors back maybe they're even? Who knows.]

It's not like much will happen even if I get really ambitious, I'm not the one who's going to be building it. You have to aim high when you're at the ideas phase... Wait a second! You didn't even say anything!!

It's your fault I need to act this way in the first place.

[ I'm glad they actually made progress with the screwdriver because they could literally be here all day like this. ]

I know, I didn't even have to. [ Grin. It's great! ]

Hmm? Don't try to blame me for everything. You're the one who's a university student--

[He's not responsible for the smoking!!! If anything he is only responsible for their ridiculously over-often patronage of the downtown cafe, because that is all Tamamori is Perceiving.

Hang on, aren't they both students now. Weird.]

--for longer. [this doesn't make any sense but hell if he's backing down] I'm sure we don't have that much time to argue trivial things here.

[And yet here they are. It's weirdly reassuring, why.]

Then get back to work, and I'll critique you when you're done, like usual. Maybe you perform better in front of an audience?

[ His smile is bright, he will continually to blame Tamamori for as much as he is allowed. That's just how he is. ]

I feel like that's a bit backwards for an author, but very well! I'll blow away the competition, just you wait!

[



Neither of them realize this is possibly literal, considering the screwdriver-in-progress. Some things, like Tamamori himself, are impossible to predict.]
