"We don't get paid enough for this," Iollan concludes at this point. He sinks down more into his seat, though he somehow keeps his perfect posture.
Hitan honestly is either confused or concerned now. There is no other.

Germaine tried to keep some cheer. "Well, it can't be that bad."
Online!
"Hmm... Meep? I am coming to the conclusion that Sunshine is to be kept away from Sollux," Calix said.
"Huh? Why?" Apollo asked.
"Same last names. I'm assuming they're siblings, or at least related in some way."
Offline
"But the...the order," Hitan mutters to himself. "Of the sentences. ...oh no."
Offline
"But if he's 'to be kept away', then why were they assigned to the same class??" Germaine shook her head. "Let's hope it works out. I guess that even if we don't have a definite seating chart, we'll want to set them in opposite sides of the classroom."

(Plot twist: The entire class's existence is because the teachers are getting some form of vengeance put upon them by the school administration board)

((What did the teachers do in their student days to deserve this XD))
Online!
(Apollo was almost always late to class and Calix... idk tbh. XD)
Apollo nodded, but he looks nervous. He's not sure of his own capabilities as a teacher.
Calix wrote some stuff down before going to the next profile, muttering to himself, "Let's hope there won't be any problems. Please no problems..." He was an experienced teacher and had dealt with many students over the years, but a troublesome class on his first year back after a break was... a little nerve-wracking. He felt like possibly his skills as a teacher trusted a bit...
"Next profile. Wiley I. Perrault, the Ultimate Scientist."
Oh boy, Calix already knew a little about this kid.
Offline
(For some reason even just reading Wiley's name nearly made me spit milk out of my mouth)
It is not suggested to look at Wiley's profile picture. No, not because he's doing something inappropriate. It's just that...oh my, one's eyes. (Hey, that rhymed.)
The notes are just made of two parts. One: "Beware. (Not in the murder sense.)"
That...that doesn't sound sinister at all.
Two was an anecdote of sorts, with a taped newspaper headline to it: "Ultimate Scientist of Hope's Peak Academy Acquitted from Trial." Then there's a small part of the newspaper following it as well: "Mr. Wiley P. allegedly mixed explosive components together while on a job in the office of [REDACTED], a government official tried in court for corruption and who was highly suspected of being acquitted due to bribery. Mr. Perrault was supposedly there on a volunteer job and has declined an inquiry for comment."

Calix doesn't drink often, it's more of a rarity, but at this moment all he can think is "I need a drink."
If Apollo wasn't freaking out before, he definitely is now. How much was he getting paid again? Not enough.
Offline
There was no major reaction from Germaine. She simply stared at the profile in surprise. More than just a little surprise.
Offline
Hitan somehow does not look surprised at that. Hmm, wonder why.
"The list seems to be rigged," Iollan says with a laugh. "What is it training us for?"
Online!
"Probably whatever this class is going to throw at us," Calix said, trying to sound joking. "I'm going to try to believe they are all going to be well-behaved. A lot of children in the past were very different at home than they are at school. Perhaps some of these are the same."
Offline
"That could be true, and yet I can't help but feel some dread about what's coming," Germaine stated with a chuckle.
Offline
"Too bad for the class. I'm the one who competes in bowling and javelin-throwing," Iollan chuckles. "The kids don't stand a chance."
Hitan is like "O-O" at that.
Offline
((Lol okay this is the hardest I've laughed today up to the moment))
"A-ah... good for your class, then! Perhaps we'll need your help..."

Apollo isn't sure if he should be amazed or scared of Iollan. His eyes widened a bit but it's hard to tell what he's feeling.
Calix nodded slightly. It's hard to tell of what he's thinking, mask and all. He said, "Oh, this next one is the last profile. Yvonne Dambolena, the Ultimate Magician."
Offline
Yvonne. Well, the Ultimate Magician looked somewhat tired in her picture. She was smiling too.
This note section was not long and hopefully not as alarming as some of the notes in other students' profiles.
"Due to medical problems, the student must be excused for occasional sleeping in class. Her condition is not to be shared with other students or anyone outside the school building."
"Report to the nurse's office if Yvonne exceeds an acceptable amount of sleep time or displays excessive sleepiness during the day. Further instructions to be given as needed."
Offline
(Lol Specter you sure that'll be occasional)
Yes, be afraid. Be very afraid.
Not of Yvonne, of course.
Online!
Calix 'hmm'ed a bit as he wrote down some notes for himself.
"What would the exceeding of time for sleep be?" Calix wondered. "Like, what should we limit it to?"
Offline
"That was very vague... I have no idea." Germaine shook her head. "Even if we're not supposed to say anything about this to the other students, don't you think they will just notice easily?"
Offline
"It seems hard for a medical condition to be hidden in general," Hitan notes, adding, "Especially with an Ultimate Scientist in the room, not to mention it's clearly noticeable, like you said. To be honest, speaking generally...I'm not sure how well we can accommodate students' needs even with our best effort, but we'll definitely try our best."
"Also," he adds, "I think we as the teachers should be able to know and learn more regarding any medical conditions. That way, if anything amiss is going on, then we will be able to tell. That applies to Yvonne and Echo at least. However, contrary to this, their profiles don't specify much. It's understandable that the information should remain confidential to students, or as confidential as can be, but even we do not understand enough at the moment." He raises a hand slightly into the air. "For instance, for Echo, what if symptoms from drug withdrawal manifest even outside of her times at the nurse's? In fact, are there certain withdrawal symptoms she shows? Or what even was the substance or what were the substances that she was subjected to, so that we can research and find out the general symptoms ourselves? Where would this information be kept, if not on these profiles? I feel like this all is very important."
Online!
"Hm, I say you could ask the nurse for more information," Calix said. "She perhaps has the most information about both Nivia and Yvonne."
Offline
"But I agree that the profiles do not have enough information. It does not seem like a problem for most of the profiles... except for those two specifically." Germaine paused to cross her arms. "Do you think asking the administrators for details would help? I'm not sure if the nurse has been given the information yet."
Offline
"I can go to the nurse's and the administration area while the rest of you go to the gym," Hitan offers.
Online!
Calix nodded, "It's important to get the information. Do you wish for any of us to accompany you?"
Offline
"Are you sure you don't want to go to the gym with us too? Of course I agree about the information's importance, but... well, you can do what you think is best."
Offline
(If this were a horror movie or smthn Hitan going to the nurse part is where he gets murdered)
"You two can just tell me what the gift is," he answers. "I've only been in the gym two billion times, anyways."
"Thanks to me," Iollan points out.
"Thanks to you," he agrees, nodding.
Online!
Apollo nodded and stood up, "Okay."
Calix seemed to be studying Hitan before slightly nodding.
Calix said, "We will be sure to tell you what it is once we return. Actually, wait, will we all be returning here after seeing the gift? Hitan, will you be returning here after you get information from the nurse?"
Offline
"I don't know if I will be able to stay much longer after this meeting ends officially. Are there other matters to be worked out in a group after we leave the gym?" Germaine took a moment to smooth out her clothes. "If not, then, I will go see my classroom and..."
She smiled. "And that would be it for today."
