[The video feed here is set up very much like he's filming an orientation video; he knows little else other than strict formality here, but...when it comes to his school, he would say he finds the professionalism appropriate.]

The purpose for this is twofold, so I suppose I'll just get started.

Over the last few weeks of getting settled into this environment, learning its...well "intricacies" is a small word for it, perhaps eccentricities is better, I believe now more than ever that we need some tangible return to normalcy. I would like to have the school-- [and with the video feed he links something that looks very much like an old-school brochure, (which will very much omit the whole "subbasement" part of the post (and is not icly-literal).).] --up and running within the month. We have the faculties and facilities for a number of traditional subjects: literature, biology, philosophy, physical education [though it might sound like he means something very different by this] and a few other outliers, but we are still very much in need of some help in the history and mathematics departments. (Though I'll take more esoteric lessons under advisement).

[He pauses then, and his demeanor shifts entirely, shifting from cold to amiably warm like he's flipped a switch.]

As for the second point, and no less salient: it is my understanding that I am not the only one of my kind here, and that we are not, perhaps, the only ones particularly gifted. For those of you who may not identify as mutants, I would love the opportunity to speak with you about the nature of your powers.

[He pauses to consider that request for a moment, and follows up with an addendum:]

If any of you are comfortable doing so.

Oh, would you oblige me? I love wasting other peoples' time, especially if it means I get to waste my time too. [This kind of automatic faith in her is little odd, yes, but Elizabeth can't say she doesn't like it. Trust is something she hasn't felt in a long, long time, and it makes her just a bit nostalgic. Maybe even hopeful. Day by day this place seems to surprise her, and she understands why she'd apparently loved it.]

[Maybe she can love it again.]


I suppose I have to figure out how to be a teacher now.

OH MY GOD I'M SO SORRY, just discovered this already written tag I never hit post on WHUPS

Indulge... How did you know I equate job interviews with eating bon bons in a bubble bath? [This is fun, banter is fun. It's been a while (at least, from what she remembers) that she's had this kind of silly conversation. She likes it, she thinks this might be the right way to go even. This could be the next step in her building a life in this timeline.]

I suppose I'm halfway there, then. I'm at least willing to do what I can.

Oh God, if there's a job where all you do is sit in a bubble bath, sign me up. It might be too good to be true, but I'm willing to play the fool if it meant there was even a chance it's real.
