"Oh." Impressive resume. He nodded approvingly. "Very nice. Do you enjoy that kind of work?"
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
“I do… mostly.” Sadie nodded. “It’s tiring. But I love the kids.”

"Good." Nicholas closed his eyes. "Shouldn't be a teacher if you don't like kids."

“For sure… well, for the age you teach anyhow. I’m not a fan of tiny kids. That’s why I went high school.”

"Mm." He nodded, and his head throbbed. "High schoolers broke the lock on my shed a couple years ago, y'know. Well, they're high schoolers now. Middle schoolers back then. Still the same."

Sadie tsked and shook her head. “Shitheads—“ she glanced over at him, blushing immediately. “Sorry.”

He shrugged. "It's fine. Watch that one, though. Laura and her little crew. Wild things....parents don't care where they go or what they do so long as they go to church and stay in school."

"Lacksy. Laura Lacksy. Her father works down in the mines..." He furrowed his brow; God, his head ached. "I think she goes by Bean around her friends. No idea why."

“Ohhhh!” Sadie nodded. “Right. Gotcha. Yeah I’ve got her in class. She’s spirited that’s for sure.”

"Spirited's one way to put it," he snorted. "Willful, disobedient, disrespectful. But that's not all her fault."

“I don’t find her disrespectful.” Sadie shrugged. “Just… misunderstood.”

"Mm, that too." He nodded. "She's got her little gaggle of friends and siblings, though. They understand her well enough. I think."

“Mostly,” Sadie agreed. “I feel for her, though. You can tell there’s a lot going on in that brain of hers that she doesn’t share.”

"Mhm." Nicholas could feel himself starting to drift off. "Pity she lives here. She'd do a lot of good elsewhere."
