[Joint Open Post] Open University!

[only_paul]

In the common room, one might notice a brand new sign. Not too far from it, two students. A tall and lanky young man (though he's almost in his 30s), with brown hair and gray eyes, and a small dark-haired young lady are sitting by a desk and chatting a touch feverishly.

The sign?

Victoria is only beginning to settle, but she would love to make herself useful. She's absolutely willing to try almost anything new, as long as it takes her mind off the fact that she had King there, with her, and has lost him; that she had success and fame and glamour, and no she's only your next woman.

"I beg your pardon, may I speak with you when you're done?" Politely, but slightly unpatiently.

[ichbinzillah]

Zillah looks over at her. "We can talk now, if you'd like. You're not interrupting anything."

Changing my tag, haha!

[only_paul]

Paul laughs a little, nudges Zillah companionably, and smiles at Victoria.

"You're interrupting a lot of waiting," he replies with what is his unique brand of dorky humor.

"It's perfectly alright."

[dontyoubflatme]

"Oh. Alright then. I would like to know how this works," Victoria says with determination in her voice. "I'd like to offer my services, but your own offer interests me as well."

A crazy persons mind is a terrible thing to waste...

Aramat walks in on the sign and is very curious about it. She has always wanted to go to a learning instution, but that time in another instution took away that precious time...

Still, she has unyeliding desire to learn.

[ichbinzillah]

Zillah looks over at her, smiling. "Hey! Are you interested?"

[only_paul]

For now, Paul remains quiet and lets Zillah handle the conversation. He might be busy making some notes from a previous interview.

He'll come say hello soon, though.

Feel free to go on without me on this, since I'm AFK until Monday. ^^ Paul will interrupt when I get back, of course. &hearts

[scalpedsociety]

"Why yes, I was wondering if you were taking slightly older students... are you?"

[cute_shinigami]

Here's someone who missed out on a college education due to a lengthy illness and, well, dying fairly young. He's had some education since then, as part of his on-the-job training in the Ministry of Hades, but never really had the chance to get a real college education. Thus he's eying the sign quizzically and wondering who dreamt this up.

[ichbinzillah]

Zillah smiles at him, looking over. "Hey, want to sign up for classes?"

[only_paul]

Again, feel free to go on and assume Paul's gone to get drinks for Zillah and himself, he'll arrive with those (and a surprise) on Monday.

I just don't want to hold you guys up. &hearts

[cute_shinigami]

Tsuzuki grins, delighted both to meet a new pretty girl and for the invitation. "Sure thing! I never did get to go to college, so as long as I'm living here and you're offering classes, I'd love to."

Warren notices the sign as he's passing through the room and pauses, studying the sign and the two people near it. It's an interesting prospect, he'd never finished high school, the last time he'd been home he was sixteen. He's curious about what this project might entail, and wondering if he should ask.

[ichbinzillah]

"Hey!" Zillah says, smiling at him. "Are you interested?"

[only_paul]

For now, Paul stays back - he doesn't want to scare the young man away by ganging up on him.

After all, Warren is just the right age to be in undergrad.

[notavillain]

"I dunno yet," he says slowly, eyeing the sign and shrugging. "It's been a long time since I've been in school." And he'd never graduated, though he doesn't mention that yet.

Dahlia sees the poster and stops to read it. "College... students...?"

Perhaps this is her opportunity to have the year she never did.

[ichbinzillah]

Zillah smiles and nods. "Yep! Interested?"

[awomanthorned]

Dahlia is a bit uneasy. "I... yes. Yes, I suppose I am. Do you - do you have any literature classes?"

[ichbinzillah]

"We could, if you wanted! I'm gonna teach political science, but I'm also pretty well-read, so."
