Faculty Meeting - Monday Lunchtime

There was free food! There was the dartboard with Jamie Madrox's face on it! There were comfortable chairs! There were too many exclamation marks!

What else would you want?

The last faculty meeting of the academic year is now open.

"Pretty sure I won't," Josh said, his mind already reeling though all the people who'd be leaving to cause other teachers heartburn.

Sometimes on completely different planets!

Life was good.

He shrugged and took a sip. "To paraphrase Ben Franklin, 'coffee is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy,'" he said. "Oh, he loves me a lot."

Aziraphale chuckled at the paraphrasing. "You sound exactly like James. I think he would be happy if somehow they could transfuse his blood and replace it with coffee. I've never managed to acquire a taste for it, myself."

Josh's looked changed from "huh?" to "horrified."

"You don't like coffee? How do you survive at this school?"

"Tea, my dear!" Aziraphale replied brightly.

"And, er...the occasional scotch," he admitted, after a moment's pause.

Josh laughed. "If you told me you were mainlining heroin to keep up with these kids, I wouldn't be shocked."

"Oh goodness no!"

Aziraphale laughed as well, although he shook his head vehemently. "No, nothing at all like that. Although...well, as much I enjoy teaching them, I do have to admit that there are times when the students can get a bit out of hand. They're good at heart, of course, but awfully high-spirited. I'm just glad they have someplace like this to come and learn, where they can be themselves."

"The crazy little hellspawn that they are," Josh agreed cheerfully. He held up his cup. "Thanks for the coffee! I'll see you around."

"You're very welcome, my dear." Aziraphale gave Josh a bright smile. "Have a lovely last week of classes."
