The outdoor classrooms were really some of the only things this year keeping Noah sane. He hated not being able to discuss things privately with his friends or girlfriend without the Hoods being close by and hovering... At first, he had tried to spin it and pretend that he was some important official and the Hoods were just his bodyguards. However, that playful, tongue-in-cheek way of viewing it was proving to be very unsustainable.

Today he felt ‘meh’ which was better than ‘eh’ but nowhere near ‘Kay.

He nodded at the Professor as he arrived with the Hoods and other students from the Room. “Hi Professor,” he spoke in a unusual monotone voice for him. He was staring to not care about anything at this point. He glanced around the outside location and let out a loud sigh before finding a seat near Kale.
