Pre-Jump Earth Literature

[aestrix]

It's a new term, and the end of the break between terms most students have been enjoying. But time marches ever on, and so at 1:00 PM, just after lunch, twenty-six students all around the age of fifteen are finding seats in an obnoxiously decorated classroom. It's one of those classrooms that tries very hard to be peppy and inspirational, and only succeeds at being very out of touch, and kind of creepy.

Soon it will be time to read about things long-dead people wrote.

"I would certainly hope so!"

[thisvorlunatic]

"I would be very disappointed in myself if I grew up to be an incompetent adult."

[poll_the_stars]

"As would I. Not to mention I'd try very hard to change that the moment I realized."

[thisvorlunatic]

"Well, naturally."

"Along with obsessively deconstructing what exactly led me to incompetence..."

[thisvorlunatic]

"To be perfectly honest with you, I'm having enough trouble imagining myself incompetent in the first place that I really have no idea how I'd react."

[poll_the_stars]

"Yes. That is the most alarming part. How I got there."

[thisvorlunatic]

"Well, let's just be as competent as possible and then we won't have to worry about it."

[poll_the_stars]

"Deal."
