Why are we all getting new families?

Better yet, why does anyone think the rest of us care?

Comments

[arachnoble]

Perhaps because teenagers are silly, ridiculous creatures who feel the need to share their every thought and whim with their peers?

You obviously felt the need to share that you don't care, which makes you quite like them. Nobody cares that you don't care, so why broadcast it towards the rest of the school?

[speedily]

I suggest you learn how I operate.

[arachnoble]

Not much different from the other students, I'm sure.

You may believe yourself to be special, different, whatever word you choose - but sometimes the most mediocre are the people who believe themselves to be great, and there's hundred in this school who believe they, too, are unique.

Besides, I don't care how you operate, as I'm only here to teach you magic. I don't have to stomach talking to you on a one on one basis.

[speedily]

Clearly you don't know me.

And it's funny that you're so opposed to talking to me, yet you're doing right now.

[arachnoble]

That wounds me, really. Didn't you read what I just wrote?

Not particularly, no. I'm merely explaining to you that you aren't the special snowflake you believe you are. You have to learn that sooner or later, so consider this a lesson.

It sounded like typical teacher babble to me.

And again.

[arachnoble]

I am a teacher, after all.

Consider this a warning - an ego will get you nowhere. Neither will attempting to antagonize your professors.

[speedily]

But your ego and attempts to antagonize your students will?

I'm done with this little game, Professor. I expect it from students, not faculty.

[arachnoble]

It's not antagonizing if I'm doing it with good intentions, I assure you.

Oh, child. You've no idea the kinds of games I play.

[speedily]

Of course. Bye-bye.
