( * ░ ASH BRADFORD

hotel television is limited but I’m pretty flexible. 

— ❛  WHAT about neither... is that really all they offer? Because if they do it’s kind of pathetic.      ❜

“i can’t disagree with you there. on the first day, i swore up and down that there was something very wrong with her and wondered how in the world she was allowed to teach.”

— ❛  MY guess is that she either did the headmaster or the school was just really desperate to get that teacher’s spot filled.   ❜

“i’m positive she thought that this was something that you had no interest in coming which is why she’s here. otherwise, she’d avoid this place like the plague. and that’s debatable. some would say the worst thing. they may even say you tortured the lady and almost drove her to insanity.”

— ❛  YEAH she probably hoped I didn’t. And to be honest I think she was already  pretty much a goner. i just made it a little worse.   ❜

“I’ve been to DC a couple times, I really enjoyed my time spent out there. What do you do there? Work wise I mean? I did some traveling in college, more for school activities and such, but what was one of your favorite places to go? I live in New York City for now.”

— ❛  I know right it’s a great place. i just feel like everything I would need is close by. Oh I’m a director. Or an upcoming one But I hope that after this reunion thing I can get some work done. Well I did visit the Bahamas once ... Let me tell you that was a great holiday. And I tried NY once but it wasn’t really my thing.   ❜

“ nah, plastic surgeons don’t go for people with completely hopeless faces. ”

— ❛  YOU do have a point and even of they did she wouldn’t have been able to afford that much work. I hear it’s expensive.    ❜

“ she probably sucks the life outta all her students. it’s the only explanation. ”

— ❛  OR she married a plastic surgeon. Although your suggestion would make sense.     ❜

“Plus everyone has a better time once its spiked. But for me, this is clearly why I don’t remember Homecoming all that well!  A few vague impressions, haha! Where do you call home now?”

— ❛  EXACTLY I remember that even some of the teachers were clearly having a lot more fun after that. An right now home is DC. It’s been for 7 years my home. I traveled a lot before that.  And you?   ❜

“Its not really a dance worthy of the name Homecoming unless someone spikes the punch. I don’t know if I would say I loved it all the time here, but most of the time it was pretty good. I was glad to get away though. I can’t imagine the people who live here and have never left Hamilton.”

— ❛  NOBODY drinks that punch if it isn’t spiked anyway. It’s not like it tastes or good or something. I just didn’t really care about things so I was content being here. But yeah as soon as I could get away I went as far as possible.    ❜

— ❛  CAN imagine  how surprised I was to see her there. And she probably got a small heart attack when she saw me. Besides I was the best thing that happened in her life I bet nobody could rile her up like I could.  ❜

“Yes! That was the year I was in her class. I remember that! She got so read int he face we thought she was going to spontaneously combust. She probabaly went back to her classroom and checked her chair after she saw you earlier. At least you keep her life interesting, imagine how boring it would be otherwise. Her and her five cats at home. Or I assume cats. Other then scaring former teachers, what have you been up to in life?”

— ❛  OH yes that was just picture worthy. Yeah I’m pretty sure she never trusted me after that. I remember that time she wanted to ban me from homecoming because she thought I would spike the punch which I totally did. Oh I loved it here. But yes she should thank me. And I doubt that she is married so cats sound about right.   ❜

“ i’m pretty sure davis would’ve taken an early retirement. ”

— ❛  I actually thought already retired. i thought she was like 50 or something when she taught us.    ❜

“I remember being in your class with her for one of those years. You’re definitely a hard person to forget. Consider me frightened now, I haven’t seen her yet. I’m secretly hoping that I don’t. Though I highly doubt she’d remember me at all.”

— ❛  I remember that we unscrewed all the screws from her chair so when she went to sit it broke. I think that as junior year. She already hated me back then. Maybe she does she probably wished there were more you’s then me’s.  ❜

“ i’m fairly certain the entire class of 2006 remembers you, ash. ”

— ❛  THOSE were the days right? They were probably just thrilled when I graduated. Can you imagine if I had failed my year and had to redo it.   ❜

“I’m still arguing for a lasting impression here and that she should have been so lucky. She didn’t keel over and have a heart attack when she saw you so that’s promise! Besides, she was old ten years ago, time is definitely not kind to everyone.”

— ❛  MY years were the glory years. I had her for 3 years and every year she got worse. But I though that back then she was at her limit... but no. Really when you see her you just get scared she looks like the definition of a witch. Ugly , pointy nose and I’m sure she has a broom stocked somewhere.    ❜

“Well you could turn this around, say you made a lasting impression on her and that even after ten years she remembers you.”

— ❛  WELL I’m pretty sure she will never have a student like me again. She probably missed me that much. But at least I aged up nice. She got even uglier with the years.   ❜
