Shall we take bets on whether or not zombies are the worst thing we'll see this year?

[Horst is lounging on a couch near a fire, a book open and on his chest.]

I realized, with all the new arrivals especially, we have a pool of unusual skills here. Would anyone be willing to teach a few classes? For instance: I could teach...oh, bar tending. Card dealing. Physics and labwork--you know, whatever there is interest for.

The ponies could teach 'Frolicking 101'. The angels could teach 'Offending Someone in Two Words or Less'.



[PRIVATE to RACHEL]

Have you done opera at all?

Hey. [/VAGUELY OFFENDED.]

Anna! [She looks like hell. And also she's not an angel like, uh. Her brothers. They're assholes.]

What's wrong, doll?

[buntails.livejournal.com]

[She can't help herself, really. Have a snickering Usagi.]

What should I teach?

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[He grins at her and makes a show of thinking]

How to make buntail...things.

I have a confession, whenever I see them in person I just--want to...bounce them.

No, truly though, what's your least known hobby?

[flameandpassion]

It only takes one word.

[She is totally serious.]

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Speaking from experience as well, eh?

[soulcontracts.livejournal.com]

Physics.

video

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I studied physics. [Briefly.]

You won't be teaching necrothology, I assume.

[video]

[swordsinside.livejournal.com]

...teaching.

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Are you interested, love?

[wingsandwill.livejournal.com]

[This face.]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[AND THIS ONE]

[Same Filter]

[somethingspecial]

[SOMEONE.

JUST SENT HER A MESSAGE REGARDING HER TALENT.

This is the best day ever.]

I have The Phantom of the Opera completely memorized -- but I was not trained, vocally, for opera singing, though I can hit extremely high notes all the same, with much practice.

[Same Filter]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I...it's ridiculous when I've been here so long, and I was living in England so long, but I miss German opera.

Also, I found a burned copy of a small collection, and I wondered...? I could accompany on the piano of course.

If those are the worst, we should be all right. As long as people don't run around getting bitten and spreading the virus around.

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I hope you stayed safe?

[Video]

[fallenapple.livejournal.com]

[Sneerrrrk.]

You ran into Casti, huh.

And the hell do you want school here for?

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Satan, actually! But I've heard him insist he's an angel, so....

School is for more than just reading and writing and 'rithmatic. We have kids here who can run up walls, women who can punch out moose. Wouldn't you go to school if they offered those classes?

[exarmatio]

... I'm actually qualified to be a teacher...

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Negi! [Happy grin] What do you teach?

[snarkypotions]

<sub>[That is a book, Horst. Not an alcoholic drink.

Hence the look.]</sub>

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[What? He reads. Sometimes.]

I'm even sober.

[Ever think you're spending too much time with him?]

[storyofapromise.livejournal.com]

I'm something of a linguist and am well versed in the last thousand or so years of history. I would be more then happy to offer my knowledge of both to the general public.

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

That would be perfect!

[alethalweapon.livejournal.com]

I doubt anyone would take that bet.

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Their loss! Think of the payout.

[video]

[kill-joo-ded.livejournal.com]

[Let's face it. Killua only got one thing out of this entire video.]

Card dealing?

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Are you any good or would you be one of my lowly students?

[Video]

[feel-nevermore.livejournal.com]

[A soft snort.] Just jinx it, why don't you?

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Shh, I'm sharing my good fortune. No jinxing here.

[law-of-reason.livejournal.com]

Even if you had useful skills, do you think there's much of anyone here worth teaching?

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

I was hoping you'd attend a class or two.

[al_truism]

I can help with physics, biology, chemistry and basic fighting?

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

We need chemistry, my brother and I--well, myself specifically--want to study the anatomy of the local creatures.

But I also want to remind people how to...live, how to have fun.

[fairymicrowaver.livejournal.com]

Let's not. Might teach the Animus to cook up something worse. [A pause.]

I can teach survival skills. That's the most universal skill I have.

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Can you teach how to make a meal on, shall we say, improbable ingredients?

[hardcorecute.livejournal.com]

I could teach drawing!

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Perfect! You're hired, Miss Bubbles.

[Video]

[mirroredecho.livejournal.com]

Pretty sure you'd be better at "How do get drunk and make an ass out of yourself."

[But he is so amused.]

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Smirk smirk] Behold, my greatest student!

Horst? [Alice peeked out from the hallway, listening to her guardian speak to others before deciding to call out to him.]

[Offline]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[Horst blurs, appears behind her and scoops her up]

[Video]

[capuletnomore]

[She is offering without Tybalt's permission, because it seems interesting that someone thinks teaching skills is useful.]

I could teach sewing and mending. That is a skill I am sure many would find useful in this place.

[Video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

My dear, that would be perfect.

I don't believe we've met. My name is Horst Cabal.

[video]

[seiryuusmartie.livejournal.com]

I could do something. I excel in all of my studies, though I doubt that World History would be of much use here.

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

[He grins] What do you do for fun?

[video]

[unreadability]

I believe there's a building which has been used for educational purposes in the northeastern section of the city.

[video]

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

Is there? That's much better than what I had planned. Do you have the coordinates?

And, of course, I hope to see you there--as a professor or a student. Or both.

[thelonegenin]

... [Totally missing the point but--]

Why would you wanna go to classes?

[ahandsomedevil.livejournal.com]

To learn to do something new! Haven't you wanted to learn how to...pull more pranks? [He's pretty sure that's what he remembers Naruto from.]
