Lim laid there for a moment longer, surprised he’d listened to her. Somehow, part of her thought he’d actually just brush it off like she was playing mind games or something of the like, but he did believe her, even if only begrudgingly. She listened to his words and gently nodded. She could be nicer. But then, he could also not be so perverted. Both of them had a lot of work to do if they were going to work together, but that was a conversation for after class.<br/><br/>She watched as Wric left ahead of her, giving him the space he likely needed, as she just sat there gathering her own thoughts. Particularly, one thought regarding a certain hope she had during all of that. Why did her mind picture him kissing her? She shook her head, disregarding the notion. It didn’t happen. Wasn’t even close to happening. Why would it? They were ready to tear each others’ throats out, not play angry tonsil hockey.<br/><br/>With a frustrated sigh, she got up and made her way to class. It was just about to start when she walked in, taking her seat next to Wric but not saying anything. The professor was a centaur with probably the most monotonous voice she’d ever heard in her life. Like, was the man devoid of emotion, or did he simply not understand the basics of public speech? Nevertheless, the topic covered during that class surrounded the Labours of Hercules, detailing each one. The lecture was long and drawn out and difficult to pay attention to. Their homework assignment was to write a paper detailing one of the Labours and explaining how his defeat of the monster was either heroic or evil in his actions. It was due in three weeks, and both Hero and Sidekick in each student pairing had find a topic they both agreed on as they would write the paper, hand it in, and be graded together.<br/><br/>“Geez, first day and already a major thesis paper.” Lim made the complaint as class ended two hours later. “I rather enjoy learning but even<i>I</i>recognize that’s a rough start to any class.” She partially joked, trying to make light of the situation that had just occurred between her and Wric on their way back to their dorm.
