Mica doesn’t need sleep, but it’s better than listening to the teacher drone on and on. One hundred and seventy-five years of existence hadn’t done much for him, apparently; Mica was childish and uncommitted despite it all.
Using his arm as a pillow, he closes his eyes, thinking about home. He has a bunch more important things to do there, and now that he thinks about it, he’s not sure if these people can really help him. His powers transcend the typical concept of “magic,” and he wonders if it’s even possible to teach an old God new tricks.
He’s suddenly jerked back into alertness as the person next to him whispers at him, asking for a pen. Pen… pen. Mica can’t remember to bring his own pen, honestly. But it is only in his nature to fulfill a mortal’s request, no matter how inconsequential.
“I’m sorry!” he apologizes, too loudly. “I don’t have one right now. I’m a failure! Please let me fulfill your request in some other way!”
And obviously that means summoning his Divine Axe and ripping a hole right in the fabric of the space-time continuum to search for a version of her that remembered to take a pen in the first place and swap them. That’s Mica logic.
✦ - Little did she know that the other was sleeping, and little did she know that she was sitting next to a god. Coming from a land where the presence of gods were highly important, it was a privilege to be sat next to one... if only she knew about that though.
Little did she also know that her classmate was sleeping before she whispered to them, and that meant witnessing them jumping up and becoming suddenly alert and also way too loud. If only she was wearing her Nightingale Armour, because then she could just hide in the shadows without anyone knowing that she was dying inside from embarrassment. She had hoped that they had a spare pen, but it only caused a small commotion.
❝A-ahh! It’s fine! Don’t worry about it honestly! It’s just a pen! No need to label yourself as a failure or anything!❞ She said quickly to the other’s words. Her voice couldn’t have left her lips quick enough, especially since the attention of the whole class was now on them from the other being so loud. ❝But maybe... you could speak a little quieter? Just a little?❞
Now she had to find another way of taking notes from this lecture without a pen... Well, he had good memory, and she just wished that she could just adsorb the teacher’s knowledge like she could with dragons. Things would be much easier then.
