Knowing this, he decided that it would be best if he started with finding out who he would be working with. That would allow him to know just how professional those he was to work with would be, and just what sort of relationships he'd have with his comrades. It'd make it much easier if he knew just what sort of situation he'd be getting himself into, and he wanted to at least have someone to rely on.
So he went over to the scrying ball to peek in on his compatriots.
Kyuusaku Natsume grinned madly as he packed his materials. As he bounced around his lab, he was fairly dancing as far as anyone watching would think.
Such as in the case of his son. "Would you tell me why this is such a great thing?"
"Just imagine! With this job, I'll get a big pay raise and not have to worry about paying for my experiments. The school will fund them!" Kyuusaku replied, "And this will help with your mother!"
"Right... Why would they do that?"
"Because they've finally seen the light! They want me to run any experiment that I want. Imagine the freedom! Imagine the possibilities. Imagine the wonders I can bestow on the minds of my students."
"Imagine me leaving now..."
The elder Natsume didn't even notice his son leaving as he continued to prepare for his teaching job. He might not be the only science instructor, but he was getting the chance of a lifetime, and didn't have to worry. After all, as far as he knew, everything had finally come to the way he liked it.
Looking at the man in the lab coat, Ranma found his brow twitching.
Perhaps he'd have better luck with a more... normal teacher.
Sighing heavily, Miss Ayumi looked out the window and wondered what this new job was going to bring her. She'd dedicated her life to teaching, and was certain that she'd go to this job with the same confidence and will that she had before. It was her calling after all, and she wasn't about to abandon it.
"I just wish that I could meet a nice guy and settle down," she murmured to herself, "Maybe someday. But right now, the students need me."
Nodding determinedly, she opened her textbook and began looking for what she would need for her lessons.
'Well, she seemed normal enough,' the magic user thought to himself, 'What about this one?'
"Let me see... I'll need to keep up my strength..," Hinako murmured to herself as she packed her bag. "I know! I have those candy bars!
For most women her age, it would have been a simple walk over to a drawer or cabinet.
In her, it was a bit of a dodge as she skirted the mess on the floor on her way to the jar where she kept her candy. Settling down on the floor with the container between her legs, she pulled out various sweets until she got to a handfull of chocolate bars.
"Here they are!" she declared happily, and hummed as she headed back to her briefcase. Upon reaching it, she put on a show of putting them in. "Now I'll have something to help me go after all those naughty delinquents! And for now..."
Smiling to herself, she unwrapped a lollipop and stuck it in her mouth as she got to getting ready for work.
