Kore gave him a little smile in return. She glanced at the clock to see how much time was left in class only to find that they were only halfway through. Great.
"Never thought it'd be you behind the mask" O/O
Adrian shifted and winced again, rubbing a hand at his collarbone.
Kore noticed the movement and she ended up tilting her head slightly, "Did you hurt yourself?"
"Hm? Yeah, but it'll be fine."
"Oh, that's good," Kore let her head return to neutral and nodded slightly.
He gave a tight, quick smile, nodding and setting his phone on the counter.
Kore did the same letting silence fall between them. She didn't really know what else to say and instead went to looking back up front to see if the professor was going to take charge, the answer was no. No, he was not.
He cleared his throat faintly.
Kore glanced back at Adrian, and so did about a third of the class. The rest of the class looked back while Kore said quietly, "Yeah?"
He blinked, not having expected the amount of attention that small action had gained him. "Uh. I wasn't…it's nothing."
"Oh, okay," Kore responded. She looked at her notebook and hummed in thought, "I guess we could maybe try to narrow down the representation a little bit."
"Yeah, taht might be a good idea. Maybe LGBTQ?"
"That topic would be easy to find material for and it's pretty relevant nowadays," Kore commented after a bit of thought, "We could use Love, Simon as one of our books too."
"Yeah, we could. Though I uh, haven't read it."
"I haven't either, but it's a popular book," Kore shrugged slightly, "It would be a good starting point."
"Alright, perfect." He wrote it down.
Kore glanced back up at the clock to find class was ending in a minute, "Yep. Looks like class is about over."
Adrian nodded, stretching.
Kore started packing her stuff away as the professor dismissed the class. She had to wait for everyone to leave before heading out anyway, especially since she was further from the door than normal.
Adrian packed up, slipping on his backpack with a wince.
Kore noticed him wincing, but remembered what he had said earlier. The rest of the class filtered out talking to each other openly and once Kore thought the room was empty enough she started to get up and make her way to the door.
He started to head out of the room, sighing faintly.
Kore hobbled out of the room and out of the building. She let out a long sigh as she made her way back towards her dorm room to get some work done.
He headed to his next class, wincing faintly as he walked.
(Should we skip ahead?)
(sure, to when?)
(Umm, maybe an encounter when they're in their alter egos?)
(jhdgjhbdjf alright, that same day?? or like a day or so later?)
(What's with the keyboard smash? Lol. Ummm maybe a day or so later, so Adrian has time to recover.)
(idk lol. Alright, makes sense. Want me to do that or do you want to?)
