Office # 12, Monday

[electrocynic]

Electroclash was annoyed. She'd been on the phone with the SPA far too early this morning, because apparently there was some kind of podcast radio thing recapping the happenings of the island, and apparently the SPA had come across that, and apparently they knew she'd missed her first class. And yes, that had been news to her. Not that she wouldn't have maybe skipped it even if she'd known it was supposed to happen last week.

The good thing here was that the SPA person had told her the paperwork was all in her office. Electroclash hadn't known she got an office, either, so that was the actual good news of the day. She'd made her way over, uniform and all, and sure enough, right there on her desk was a paper stating the starting time of her class. Which was last thursday.

Electroclash so hated the authorities being right about anything. Heavy sigh. She flopped into the chair by her desk and glanced at the computer.

"|Computer play podcasts.|"

Might as well see what else she'd missed.

Hercules didn't just drop in because he was Electroclash's teaching buddy.

Also because he thought she was pretty. But mainly the first thing.

He knocked on the door and peered inside.

"Hello?" he said.

[electrocynic]

Listening to the podcasts, Electroclash had actually progressed from scowling to... just generally looking a bit displeased with everything. Still, progress! Especially if you considered that that was in fact the expression she chose to give the world most of the time, anyway.

She glanced up towards the door at the sound of the knock. "Hello, big fella," she drawled. "What is it?"

"I mainly was dropping in to see how you were settling in. I was a little disappointed not to see you at the party at the bar this weekend," Hercules said.

[electrocynic]

"Well, I was disappointed to hear about it," she replied, nodding at the computer which was still playing news podcasts. "Should've advertised it more."

Because it was obviously everyone else's fault that she didn't pay enough attention.

"Next time I'll invite you personally," Hercules said, completely undeterred by her attitude.

He was friends with Tony Stark, this was nothing.

"But that doesn't answer my question of how you're settling in. Did your first class go well?"

[electrocynic]

Electroclash shrugged. "Dunno." How reassuring was that? "Still need to track down the notes this kid Kaplan took. Apparently there were introductions."

Hercules chuckled. "You missed your first class?" he said, not really judging her at all. "Was there an emergency in England? Villains afoot?"

[electrocynic]

"No, I just didn't know classes were starting last week." And she had zero problem admitting that, either. "But the SPA found out and woke me up this morning to bitch at me. It's like the tossers don't know about time differences."

[olympian-herc.livejournal.com]

"Or perhaps they do know and are just bastards," Hercules pointed out. He just assumed the SPA were her old super-team or some-such. "Need any help with planning your next class? I'm an old hand at this sort of thing."

[electrocynic]

Hell, Electroclash knew who the SPA were and she still thought they were just bastards.

She wrinkled her nose and poked at some of the papers on her desk. Kind of like they were something disgusting. "Thanks, but I think I was given a lesson plan or something in advance. Not much for planning anyway."

If she was, she probbaly wouldn't have been here in the first place.

"Well if you need anyone to demonstrate on or anything, I am more than happy to oblige," Hercules said. "Heroics are my bread and butter, as they say."

[electrocynic]

"I'll keep that in mind," Electroclash snorted. "But I think keeping me updated on the town boozing situation will be more useful, mate. Think I can handle the brats myself."

By generally acting like one.

Hercules chuckled and nodded. "Well, keep me in mind if you ever do need anything else," he said. "I can try to fit you into my schedule if you ever do."
