Stuck inside with Sirius | *Splish-Splash* | bamBAM | ☁ Spooktacular ☁

Sam might have let out a small gasp as she entered the classroom, and then again as she exited and re-entered it to check what she was seeing was real. It was definitely a classroom door on the outside, but like a city on the inside.

It wasn't dismal at all. It was like home.

She couldn't help but grin as she let her gaze run across the abandoned lot, covered in buckets and tyres. One of those would suffice as a seat, of course, but she really wanted to go perch on one of the fences, or even better, on the top of that wall.

So tempting. It'd take barely jiffy to get up there.

Something told her it was likely just an illusion on the actual walls of the classroom, so instead she lithely hopped between some buckets and tyres on her way to the front of the classroom, finally plopping down on a large-ish tractor tyre.

"Awesome classroom, Professor," she said by way of greeting with a grin. Best yet, she reckoned.

Maybe you're forced to play in a lot like this because where you live doesn't have an area for recreational activities..." She paused, letting them visualize a life like this in their minds. "Now I'd like each of you to tell me how living in a place like this would make you feel." From the looks on many of the faces as the kids entered the room earlier, she was going to guess unsafe.[/COLOR]
And, oh, the lesson was starting!

How would it make her feel? Sam tilted her head at the professor. She wasn't sure what she was meant to answer here. She twisted around on her tyre and glanced round the room once more, her previous excitement for the lesson dissipating into awkwardness.

"S'a bit cold," she answered finally. "Too open tah be ideal fah livin'. Nah shelter from wet ei'ver. Not bad for playin' 'n climbin' wiff ya mates though."
