Ethics class meets tomorrow as usual, and I expect my pupils will be attentive, regardless of the distractions of the day. It is a day as any other.

I'm sure they'll be perfectly attentive. As long as the subject matter is interesting.

[will_be_god]

The subject matter alone ought to hold them, but it does not. There are problem students constantly, those whose educations are beyond tertiary to troublemaking.

...You have not commented here in some time.

Some students need a little more encouragement than others. No better, no worse. Just a little something extra. Sort of like flowers.

I'm aware. I'm sorry. I've been busy.

Perhaps, yet that is not what I speak of. I do not mean those who have something inhibiting the learning process within them, only those who refuse to learn. Those who are willfully ignorant.

I think it should be alright, Professor Cyrus. Most folks aren't doing anything till after classes anyhow, probably.

Unless it's like last year and people start falling in love with one another randomly. Hopefully not though, but it's happened two years in a row now so... just forwarning you.

...I see. I recall that...that is commonplace then?

No matter. They are expected to reign that in during classes. Surely those who feel love already have attended class without interference. But that is the nature of such things...

Well, let me put it to you this way. First time it happened, I chased my Battle Strategies teacher all over the place professing my undying love. Last year, I wound up falling for one of my best buddies who happens to be my OTHER best buddies girlfriend. I wound up chucking bits of sidewalk at him for getting in the way of my budding romance. Not that I'm at all proud to admit it.

So, yes. It's a regular thing on that day, or has happened at LEAST twice. No, it's not like normal love - it's actually pretty scary.

[will_be_god]

...That is truly sickening.

Of course, sir.
