Office 14 [Wednesday late morning and afternoon]

Max had slept extremely well and was making notes about tomorrow's class. He hadn't really expected to find the teaching as enjoyable as he was. Sure it was frustrating sometimes, but most of the time he was finding it rather rewarding

After class was out and before Reserves, Karla had another stop to make. "Sir?" she said, knocking on Max's door. "You wished to see me?"

It was a subdued and exhausted Karla that poked her head in, but at least she wasn't flinching every time Max made a sudden move.

"I did," he waved at a chair. "Have a seat." Like most of his students this term, he still hadn't gotten around to learning Karla's name. He currently classified her as 'the blond with magic and more guts than brains' which was actually rather complimentary coming from him.

"You know, you look better than last week. And considering how you look now that's saying something."

"I find myself overcome by your charm and way with words, sir," Karla said wryly, sinking into the chair. Not that she disagreed. She felt like she'd been dragged, face-first, on a tour through Hell. "I am feeling much better, though. Thank you for understanding."

"I think 'understanding' is probably overstating things," Max pointed out. Because he didn't really understand. "But I can be accommodating when it's called for."

He shrugged. "I offered to discuss ways to use your powers in conjunction with what I've been teaching you. Are you still interested in that?"
