[unpocoloco]

Hola, everyone. I'm that one evening TA from Aube, for those who don't know.

I'm sure by now we've all noticed the little issue of extra little ones running around. Now obviously there's no good way to explain all of this, so I thought maybe we could all gather our stories here so we don't get our wires crossed. You know, share names and other details and stuff.

I also thought it might help if some of us could maybe use babysitters in given times. That way there's less of... pretty much all of us running around.

Also, remember that lots of these kids can probably figure out the internet so mind what you say.

I'll go first:

I'm "Señor R.", I'm looking after "Héctor (just Héctor) who also goes by Teto". He is "an entirely normal kid with no special abilities or anything so nothing to worry about there but he's a bit of trouble sometimes and may need wrangling" and I'm "not at all available during the day and could really use someone who is".

You all do the same but replace whatever's in quotations with the appropriate names and details. Then we can sort of reference back here as we go.

[OOC: Dated somewhere before Teto and Avery wind up in the infirmary probably but wibbly wobbly time.]

see, I'M just impressed you've had basically the same haircut for like 500 years. kid you has identical floof and it's weirding me out.

[Translation: I'm deeply emotionally uncomfortable with the fact that you (and everyone else who can read this) now knows vague but worrying details about my childhood, and this situation in general is something I don't know how to process either. Therefore, I will immediately deflect with humor. Also, I just legitimately enjoy making fun of your hair.]

Look, my hair just has that natural curl at the ends. I actually tried growing it out once, but for various reasons that didn't last.

[nor_iron_bars]

look, i haven't had a haircut since 2009, i ain't judging.

[Teasing, yes. But not judging. ...At least that explains how she got from Jasmine's neat and proper short bob cut to her current self's long wild mane.]

hey, scale of 1-10, how bad an idea you think it'd be to just, like. trade kids with someone.

cause i feel like this whole shitshow would be at least 20% less awkward if it was just dealing with somebody's else's dumb childhood.

[subconmodo]

I'd certainly be able to sleep better at night if he was someone else's problem.

So I'll rate it 0. It's a great idea and I'm totally willing to trade.

[As much as she'd like to just yeet the source of her emotional disquiet at the nearest adult-ish person and book it, she can't really bring herself to just... ditch the kid without making sure she'd actually be okay, for some reason. The idea bothers her in ways that she doesn't really want to examine.]

tell you what, i'll keep an eye on him when you're in your next class and you watch her during mine. call it a trial run.

[To be honest, she could probably get away with bringing Jasmine to class with her, she's obedient and sensible enough to be trusted around fire and sharp objects. But the whole 'pretending to be a competent adult who can actually be considered a teacher' thing feels awkward enough without having a reminder of her unfortunate past just staring at her the entire time.]
