Study times...not so fun

Apr 01, 2010 14:39

Victoria was sitting in the quad with her books on the table, all spread out with a few highlighters and pens about. While the day was wonderful, with blue skies with a few white puffy clouds, she had to study. Her first test of the semester was coming! She wanted to do well even though she was having a hard time with the subject. French...why ( Read more... )

Being at the same university as his family had some great benefits, namely that he got to be with his family again. The downside was that it became difficult to discern where to play platypus, and where it was still all right to keep his hat on. He couldn't pretend absolute brainlessness with the teachers, which meant at least some of the classmates had to know. Keeping his hat on, Perry wandered over to the girl wondering if he could be of some service. Or if she'd seen anything suspicious (besides a walking non-talking platypus) around.

Victoria stared down at her paper for a moment before her eyes went back up to her textbook. The examples of how to conjugate verbs seemed easy enough, but didn't really help when it came to doing a different word. Examples are easy to understand until they throw you curve balls.. She thought, scooting her pencil away from her unfinished French sentence to doodle in the margins, at least she was going to until she felt someone was near her.

She turned her head to the side and blinked. Was....that a platypus? With a hat? Aw, he's cute! ...Or she...but....student or...?

"Hey...are you here to study? There's plenty of room," she gestured to the empty seats at her table. She wouldn't mind the company.

Perry nodded and gratefully hopped up onto a chair next to her, opening up some of his own textbooks to review his own classwork. He glanced questioningly at her work, as if to ask what she was having trouble with. He couldn't talk, but he was a darn good listener.

Victoria moved her textbook a little to make room for the new...person at her table. She wasn't all that bothered in seeing a platypus wearing a hat--after all she had an alien that keep her sinuses free--but she was still trying to figure out if it was a boy or a girl. The hat looks...Indiana Jones-ish..so male I guess. Her blue eyes went back down to her own paper for a moment before she let out a sigh.

She looked over at the platypus as he glanced at her. She offered him a weak smile. "French homework. I know how to say French food like beignet...but trying to conjugate verbs? Not as much." she told him, glancing back at her textbook to glare at it a little.

"And the examples aren't helping that much."
