2nd Fix

Oct 20, 2010 17:19

[Quinn was warned he might be given a job here, and lo and behold, he was. But apparently he was a teacher, something he knew nothing about. Sure, calculus he could do, but teaching? High schoolers? Well, it couldn't be so hard, he thought ( Read more... )

[Speaking of teachers, Roshain is sitting at a desk during the lunch break, going very quickly through a thick stack of (drone-written) essays on communism.]

[He peeks over your shoulder and gives a low whistle.]

Man, that's some heavy stuff,

silno_pyanstvo October 20 2010, 22:11:05 UTC

[No outward reaction to being snuck up on.]

Нет. Is being all the same essay, fifteen times. 1950's American propaganda, written by drones.

techno_mancer October 20 2010, 22:17:22 UTC

Yuck. So this is what I've got to look forward to? Well at least there's not a whole lotta essays in calculus.

Oh hey, I'm Quinn. Nice to meet ya.

Drones will be doing whatever homework is assigned to them.

[Which means she decided that the drones (and others) should have an economics class and thus is teaching them whether they understand it or not.]

I am Roshian. Is a pleasure to be meeting you, Quinn.

techno_mancer October 20 2010, 22:49:24 UTC

Likewise! Well that's good to know. So I only gotta worry about the non-drones kids then? But I feel like makin' people go to school and work here is pretty low... in the end, does it really all matter?

silno_pyanstvo October 20 2010, 23:28:41 UTC

Work, receive a paycheck, buy food. If we are to stay in town rest of lives, would be very foolish to ignore education.

techno_mancer October 21 2010, 02:13:33 UTC

[He shrugs.] I guess that's true. Don't tell me you're one of the folks that's been here for like a year, too.

silno_pyanstvo October 21 2010, 04:45:52 UTC

Will be a year at Christmastime.

techno_mancer October 21 2010, 13:32:40 UTC

Damn. Ya really been doin' this the whole time then? I mean, you okay with this job or would ya rather be doing somethin' else?

silno_pyanstvo October 21 2010, 15:22:22 UTC

Is better than doing nothing all day.

techno_mancer October 21 2010, 17:47:59 UTC

Gotta agree with that. This place doesn't look like it's got much goin' on for it. Well, 'cept the people. The ones who ain't drones, anyway.

silno_pyanstvo October 22 2010, 02:03:50 UTC

Да. The people here are amusing.

techno_mancer October 22 2010, 13:29:38 UTC

You ain't kiddin'! People from all different times and places together. it's pretty cool to learn about where everyone's from.

silno_pyanstvo October 22 2010, 14:56:06 UTC

You are from where and when?

sorry for the delay, sick mun + busy other-characters 0_o techno_mancer October 23 2010, 22:28:33 UTC
