Lovely™ | Captain Hurted | Ariana's Bane | Resident Antagonist | Unparalleled Delight Listen. Of COURSE Abey had taken Ancient Runes. His NAME said it all. ABRAHAM BOTROS. Like THE Abraham Botros except JR.
Of course. Of course he had taken it.
And it... was going terribly so far. SO FAR. Which meant that it wouldn't ALWAYS be going terribly. He just had a little trouble telling the runes apart and occasionally mixing them up in his head, that was all. Admittedly, that was a pretty big part of Ancient Runes, BUT IT WAS FINE, OKAY? He'd get better. That's why he was at SCHOOL.
Also, did it seem a little bit like Sokolov was always in a bad mood? It made Abey nervous, and scared that he might be about to do something wrong, but apparently the guy was just always grumpy and that was his personality. People couldn't help what their personalities were like, could they? Abey still greeted him with an upbeat and slightly scrambled "Hi Professor Soklokov!" as he entered the classroom, accidentally messing up the professor's name, which always seemed to happen. That done, Abey found himself a seat at the front so that he could show how very interested in this subject he was, and also so that he wouldn't get stuck behind someone really really tall and end up not being able to see the board.
And SPEAKING of the board, Abey RECOGNISED the thing on there. He... he KNEW it. He KNEW WHAT THAT WAS. And sort of bounced and pointed and 'oooh!'ed at it. Because it was something he actually recognised which meant that maybe he might actually be okay at this lesson!
Except... he couldn't remember the name of it. And only vaguely recalled what it was for. And little half-formed facts about it. Probably not enough to be very impressive in the slightest; probably everyone here knew much more than him too. But maybe, maybe he might know something nobody else did. He was Abraham BOTROS, after all.
