2 Cups of Tea

[jasminofthewest]

Well, summer is just around the corner! I just wanted to tell all of you who are graduating this year that it has been an honour being your teacher, and your friend. I will miss each and every one of you, even those who are not in my class. I wish all of you the best at whatever you decide to do after school, and I am here if you need guidance, or

The hot springs, huh? I might have to find one to soak in myself. This year has been... something else, for sure.

[jasminofthewest]

It has been something else indeed! But in a good way, I think. I certainly have no regrets.

And I would certainly be happy to have you along, if you would like to join me!

[officestuck]

I wouldn't mind that one bit, Professor Iroh, sir. I've not much to do this summer anyway.

[jasminofthewest]

Excellent! I will make reservations soon, then. How does a weekend in mid-July sound to you?

[Uh-oh. He used the T word.]

Did...I really do that bad on the last pop quiz?

[Filtered]

[jasminofthewest]

Oh, no, not at all! You actually did quite well. What I would like to discuss isn't school related.

[whoeverlooks]

...Y

yes sir!!

I'll try not to keep you waiting, Professor.

[jasminofthewest]

Thank you very much! I will begin making the tea.

[camelliamagic]

Ah, I'll be sure to remind all members of the Cooking Club to tidy everything away before the break starts. Thank you again for allowing the club to use the classroom Professor. [Since they need to use a lot of the equipment and cookbooks kept in there.]

[jasminofthewest]

That would be lovely, but you all don't have to do that. It's my pleasure to let you do it, and it is for your enjoyment. I wouldn't sully that enjoyment by also making you clean it.

[camelliamagic]

It's no trouble. It's only fair we leave the classroom as neatly as we found it. Thankfully most members do take the time to clean all the dishes they use and put ingredients away.

[jasminofthewest]

I very much appreciate your willingness to give back so thoroughly. Perhaps I can join you all come cleaning day? It would give me the chance to see you all one last time before summer holidays.

I don't know if I'll do much over the summer. I never really went out when I... before I started living with my aunt and uncle, so I don't really know what I'd spend the time on. I'm happy just spending time with my aunt and her family, though.

Umm, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to write that much. [People like Iroh are totally one of her biggest weaknesses.]

[jasminofthewest]

Oh yes, it was terribly inconvenient to have to read all of that, since I have no many papers to grade!

[Inkblots]

I'm kidding! Never be sorry for writing a long reply, it is a pleasure to read your thoughts and answers. And spending time with family is a lovely way to spend the summer, and I do hope you enjoy yourself!

[memoryweaver]

[Way to almost give her a heart attack, Iroh.]

You... didn't mind? Umm, thank you.

[jasminofthewest]

Of course I didn't mind. As I said, I rather enjoy reading things such as what you wrote. It's always nice to gain a little insight on someone!

Probably catching up with my Muggle friends and playing soccer.

[jasminofthewest]

Muggle friends and Soccer, eh? That sounds very fun. Soccer is a muggle sport, yes? I'm a little rusty on my muggle sports knowledge, I'm afraid.

[thirteenlights]

Yup! You basically kick a ball around a field. It's almost like Quidditch but no bludgers or snitches, and not played in the air. It's nothing compared to a Struggle match though.

[jasminofthewest]

Soccer sounds very fascinating! I would love to watch a match sometime. Would you mind telling me a bit more about Struggle, though? That sounds... violent.
