Vernon B. W. Hardy figured he'd let them sort out seats while he looked for a class assignment. After all this was a probationary teaching position. He had no idea how long Contessa Shaw or whatever the hell her title was would let him stay. The limey's were damn annoying. With all the polite thank you crap going on it was hard to figure out what they really meant.<br/><br/>'We shall see' she had said. What the hell did that mean?  Vern had told her that he could see just fine.  Damn fine in fact and if she'd just point him to a class room he'd handle things in there just fine too. He expect rugby or something heavy.<br/><br/>Art. What the fuck was that? He was looking thru a national geographic he'd snitched from the health clinic when they made him get his rabies shots. Bastards.  At least the mag had pictures he could kinda wangle thru.<br/><br/>He was looking real hard trying to decide between finger paintin and creative spit tuning when one of the bitches broke thru the door like the wrong end of a bar room brawl.<br/><br/>Vern closed the mag and pushed it aside. She wanted a scrap. He was just that kind of butt wad to make her fuckin wish come true. He stood. Took off his jacket to reveal a white dress shirt with no sleeves.  His left forearm had a flame celtic red tribal tattoo.  The other was a coiled rattle snake. He removed his tie and laid it neatly on the desk before opening the shirt down to his narrow hips.<br/><br/>Adjusting the thick black belt and Harley Biker Buckle in soft brush bronze briefly. He reached into his pocket and put the brass knuckles on the desk so he wasn't tempted. This was his first day. Squaring his stance he rolled his shoulders forward and walked toward the back of the room toward the one occupant sitting on the desk.<br/><br/>"Now I don't know what the fuck hole you climbed out of this mornin, Missy" Vern said calm as an ice lake. "But by the time I get to you if you ain't up and closin that door real gentle I'm gonna use you like a dry eraser on that door until you do."<br/><br/>"So think about it," He warned and his eyes said he meant it.<br/><br/>
