Paul was in a sweatshirt, jogging pants, and some hardcore DAD tennis shoes. No, Paul was not the epitome of modern fashion, but he was comfortable. That's all a man like him needed, really. He wished it was hot enough to don a poncho, but alas.....too airy.

He had jogged here, was out of breath, and could smell the delicious food cooking. Leo was here! The librarian got a hardy wave from Paul, who was still trying to catch his breath. (Seriously, how far were the Greenhouses from here?!?! NOT TOO FAR!) And a few students caught his eye, like Mr. Truebridge and Reagan, his seaweed gathering buddy! He smiled and waved at both of them...

Merlin.

So many students!

But Paul was very excited. His smile showed as much.
