Faculty Party - Friday Afternoon

Lorelai was grateful that Bucky took a nap for part of the morning. It gave her plenty of time to transport food from the diner to the teacher's lounge.

She got everything set up and even decorated the lounge so it would be a little more festive. Since it's Lorelai, that means she hung up some balloons and streamers and covered everything with glitter.

Everything was ready in plenty of time and she was sitting on one of the couches giving Bucky a bottle, waiting for people to start showing up.

Aziraphale smiled at Mary. "It's lovely to see you again, my dear. Are you enjoying being part of the Fandom faculty?"

"Very much so yes." Mary nodded. "I did not think I would be content with having children in my care for a short while each week, but there are quite a lot of them so I think it shall work out."

"I'm pleased to hear it. I have to say, I never fancied myself a teacher, but it does seem to be rather more appealing than I'd expected it to be. Have you had a chance to see much of the town?"

"I walk from my new home on Apocalypse Avenue to the school of course, and I've seen the coffee shop, as well as the general store, and a lovely little cafe. But I'm afraid that's all."

"Do be sure to walk through the park sometime," Aziraphale suggested. "It's very nice, even has a proper duck pond. And I understand there's a bookshop and a record store, although I'm afraid I've been terribly remiss and haven't yet visited either. If you go by the bookshop when Miss Lang is working, though, tell her that Aziraphale sent you. She's...a friend of mine, of sorts."

"Lana Lang?" Mary asked. "She is in my class."

"Quite right, Lana Lang. She mentioned your class when we spoke yesterday. Very pleasant young woman, I expect you'll enjoy having her in your class."

He sipped at his tea. "Would you mind if were awfully nosy for a moment, and asked what made you decide to try your hand at teaching high school?"

"Well, I generally work with very young children." Mary said. "I suppose I look on it at something of a challenge. The children here are old enough to have forgotten some things, but are still young enough that they might be potentially reminded of them. I find an environment that encourages such things intriguing."

"A challenge. I rather think that's a very good way to look at it. A good sort of challenge, of course."

Aziraphale suspected that was part of the reasoning behind his own assignment as well. "The students here are a good lot, despite what must be to them a very strange environment."

"Some did seem more at ease then others."
