Danny: Wow, when Jazz told me she knew a guy that could tutor me in English, she didn't mention you be so buff.
Jason: Is that a problem?
Danny flustered: No no no! I guess I was expecting someone as scrawny as me. I've never been good at working out.
Jason: Hmm, well, if you want, I can also help you work out. I'm at the gym before I come to our tutoring sessions anyway.
Danny faintly: Okay.
Jason: Great. I go to the campus gym so we can meet there. Anyway, Jazz said you needed help with Shakespearian chapters?
Danny even more faint: Shakespeare....uses English I don't understand.
Jason moving closer: I'm sorry I didn't catch that.
Danny whispering: Help me, I'm too gay.
Jason: What?
Danny panicked: I said help me I'm too slay!
Jason: Ugh, I guess your outfit is nice, but what's that got to do with Shakespeare?
Jazz spying from a near by table: This idiot is blowing it.
Dick from another nearby table also spying: I know the feeling. I set Jay up for the perfect opportunity to charm his crush, and he's focusing on Shakespeare!

So you know how sometimes you do something as a kid or a teenager and you think it's totally normal and then the memory pops into your head as an adult and it suddenly recontextualizes the whole thing? Anyway shout out to my super nice high school math teacher, who also had the misfortune of being A. the first teacher to give me a syllabus that (crucially) included point totals and how grades were calculated B. scored tests as like 75% of the grade and C. allowed us to take tests as a group All those factors combined into two incidents that, in retrospect, he was in no way expecting to deal with but teenage me thought were totally normal (behind a read more because it got long)
The first was when I stopped doing math homework not long into the school year and he stopped me after class to (very kindly, very gently) ask me if I was okay and if everything was okay at home, because I'd stopped doing my homework but he knew I knew the material. I said "I stopped doing the homework because I crossed the threshold on the point totals on the rubric where I no longer need to turn in any homework to get an A." He paused, kinda blinked at me, and said "That only works if you get 100% on every test" I kind of stared back at him in blank incomprehension, and was like "Yes????" "What happens if you don't get 100% on a test?" "Well. I do get 100% on every test, but if I ever miss a question, you offer extra credit questions on every test" He didn't know what to say to that lol The other time was when he announced future tests would be allowed to be worked on in groups of three or four, and I walked up to him after class and said "Any group I am in will be getting 100% on the tests. That is unfair to the other groups, and unfair to the people in my group, who will not get a chance to test their skills because I am not risking my grade on their math abilities. Can I take the tests solo?" Again, teenage me thought this was a perfectly normal, logical thing to do, but looking back as an adult like oh my gosh there is no way my poor math teacher was expecting to have to deal with that. He did let me take math tests solo I tried the "calculate points then stop doing the homework" thing in my English class the next year and it did not work because that teacher had an "extra credit doesn't count if you haven't done all your assignments" policy :(
#the person behind the yarn#my secret is out a was a math person in school#it's not a secret lol I've offered to help people with math homework here before#but yeah! in school I did not consider myself creative at all and was all about math and science#but especially math! all my math teachers pretty much since math class started being a separate class#very quickly just moved me to the back of the class and let me read through class#except when other kids needed help learning math#and I would tutor them? idk it worked#I gave off such intense goody two shoes energy in school that I got away with a LOT#the english extra credit thing is pretty much the only thing I did not get away with in school#but that's a different story lol

I just applied for a job, everyone clap and cheer!!!
#online tutoring job.... they're looking to hire full-time.... it's a really rigorous interview process but I Maybe could make it......#I am kind of applying out of my league here tbh#given that they say 65% of their tutors have a graduate degree (I do not. all I've got is 1 English bachelors)#HOWEVER I also have three years of college writing tutoring experience and I was a really good tutor#AND! I have 1 year of real life work experience in academic editing#it would be so cool if it worked out......#Robin speaks

how good do we think shen yuan's english is? he complains about airplane's shitty chinglish, which could mean his own english is pretty good or it could just mean he knows airplane's english is terrible. my guess is that if shen yuan's family is rich, he probably received pretty thorough english lessons, so his english is pretty good, though he can read/write it much better than speak it because he took what he learned from his lessons and immediately used it to be a menace on english-speaking parts of the internet
#svsss#sy's family could probably pay for private tutors or whatnot#meanwhile airplane probably just learned whatever he could in public school or college or whatever#sy's family wanted him to learn english for like. idk. economic reasons#like in case he wanted to get involved in the family business#but instead he used it so he could be a terror on the internet in two different languages#like that post about learning chinese just to get into flame wars in chinese fandoms#except the reverse lol#writing essay length comments is a great way to practice your language skills lmao

thinking abt a stephcass magical girl 90s-00s vibe shoujo manga with all the tropes. them being childhood best friends, Cass pining for Steph while Steph is completely oblivious bc she's crushing on Tim (she's in her comphet era) and keeps bugging Cass abt which boys she likes (she likes none)
also reverse tuxedo mask situation with Tim where Steph 'crushes' on his civilian identity but hates him as a hero (at least in the beginning)
just endless possibilities for shenanigans and cute shit

He is my misfortune 🎀
~Lorenzo Berkshire x reader~
WARNING: cursing
°Nepriateľ milovníkov°
Fluff
Summary : You unhappily end up tutoring a boy who brings you more misery than life itself
• |Reader is in Hufflepuff
• | I plan to make another part/parts. But I don't know if you will like this part, so I'll see 🎀
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lorenzo Berkshire. A lot of people think of this name as a smiling face of a boy who is always positive, laughing and sometimes even kind. The only thing that comes to mind with this name is disaster. Everywhere he goes something always goes wrong. Either I'm unlucky with him or I really don't know anymore.
For example, my Hufflepuff friends and I were in Hogsmeade. It was cold, so we went to the Three Broomsticks to warm up like every student at Hogwarts. A pleasant atmosphere prevailed there, at least I felt pleasant until I saw his face. At that moment, I sighed and realized that another problem was on the way.
We sat down at the table next to his. And why ? The reason was clear. Berkshire wasn't sitting there alone, he was there with his crew. For my friends, it was literally a feast for their eyes. I don't understand what they like about guys who just drink, smoke and change girls like socks.
That's not my type at all. I'd rather have some nice boy who likes to cuddle, go on cute dates, buy me flowers and..."What the f*ck?!" I was snapped out of my reverie about a boy who might not even exist by the boy who was the most annoying to me. nerves. "Sh*t Berkshire watch out! Great, I'm all wet now," oh of course who else but Berkshire could have tripped over his own feet and spilled butterbeer on me. "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to, this really wasn't on purpose," Berkshire apologized with a smile on his face.
I heard how his friends started laughing in the back, especially Malfoy, another icon of the school. I wanted to cry. I don't understand why he always has to do this to me. "I said sorry, don't be so relational, it's just beer, it will dry out," I looked at him in disbelief.
"Yes, it will dry out. But it's your fault that it's wet!" I stood up and left the room. Why does he always have to do this to me? Fool. I got on the first carriage I saw and went back to the castle.
This happened about a month ago, I'm currently sitting in the library completing an assignment on herbology. I really don't enjoy this subject, but somehow I still manage it. Unlike Berkshire. Whatever he is, I feel sorry for him. He's been sitting here in the library since lunch, and I can see he's still doing the same thing, with a herbology book spread out in front of him.
During that time, I managed to make elixirs, astrology and now also herbology. Maybe I would help him, but that's what he needs. Unfortunately, the butter beer cannot be washed off. He's lucky he covered my old sweatshirt and not a new one.
Curfew is in a moment. I pack my things in my bag and I look at Berkshire, but he is already looking at me. Why is he looking at me? Better do your homework, moron. I smirk, take my bag and leave the library.
The next day I enter the greenhouses, as I expected, I had a good homework and so did the others except Berkshire. "Mr. Berkshire, I don't want to worry you, but you're failing Herbology," Mrs. Sprout said sternly. Berkshire didn't say anything, just stared blankly at the ground. "Are you going to do anything about it, Mr. Berkshire?" the teacher asked him. "
Well...I...I don't know..." Mrs. Spraut just sighed and announced: "Mr. Berkshire, I suggest that someone tutor you. He will tutor you for 3 weeks, 2 times a week. And I already know who ." She suddenly turned her gaze to me. Wait. NOT. He probably can't be serious. After all, one more moment in the same room with him, and that boy will set my hair on fire with his happiness.
"M...Mind..Mind me?" I stammered back to her. "Huh? Do you have a problem with that Mrs. (y/l/n)???" "Um, no?" I replied, more of a question than an answer, "excellent! You can leave at the end of class!"
What on earth did she dip it in, and why me? I ran out of the greenhouses into the corridor to make it to the next class. "Hey! Wait!" "oh god what do you want?" I turned to face Berkshire. "Wouldn't you like to go...ah!" I reached for his shirt and pulled him to the side "You were standing in way, Lorenzo," "Oh, thank you." So wouldn't you like to go for a beer with me? We could..." "No! There's no way I'm going anywhere with you anymore. The last time you had a beer in your hand, it ended on me. So no!" I said even before he could finish the sentence and I turned to leave "Jesus, you're terrible," he said with a laugh in his voice "but I still don't like you!" I said and went into the corridor.
As I expected, it happened. He chased me. "Why are you following me like a lost puppy?" "I was waiting for you to calm down," I looked at him in disbelief. "You're kidding, aren't you?!" "When was I kidding," he replied with a grin. I swear if that boy was closer I would slap him. "Oh well, well. So what do you want so urgently that you're chasing me," "I just wanted to ask about the date of the first meeting," he said quietly. "Why didn't you ask right away?"
"Because you didn't let me talk you into it?! Did you!?" that bastard... "When is convenient for you?" I asked him with a sigh. "Whenever you want, I can do it any time," "Then Wednesdays and Fridays. I want to have peace from you during the weekend," "Mrs. (y/l/n)'s order!" he turned and left. Oh god it's going to be a month.

Nik and Verbs.
I feel like Nik would hate Verbs. Like that one meme that goes:
*cue ballroom classical music*
Nik: I hate verbs in English.
*imagine Nik just dancing with Price, ballroom dancing.*
Price, raises a brow, as they dance:
Nik: I dance.
Also Nik, gives Price a peck on the cheek: You dance. He dances.
Nik,lets go of Price suddenly.To point at Graves dancing alone: Why!?
Price, looks baffled af. But before he can say a word Nik goes like:
Nik:*in a quiet voice* is he dancing more than me...?
Price, tries to comfort Nik by putting his hands on Nik's cheeks:
Nik: I don't think so.
Price, very confused:
Nik: six-hundred and forty-five people dance and he dances!?
Graves is still dancing in the background, Kate can be seen trying not to die laughing, the boys are shooketh and looking at him, Price has his hands on his hips and sighs:
Nik after a few moments of silence: How much is this motherfucker dancing!?
*Cue price on giving him a kiss on the cheek and reaffirming him in Russian with a chuckle or two. He also explains verbs more.*
#lmaoo nik hates verbs#price and nik love dancing/slowdancing and no one can tell me no.#someone mightve already donw this#graves is being an asshole#just an odd little thought i had just now !! it's an odd thought hour#bro pls get tjis man an english tutor#mwii#nikprice#john price#incorrect quotes#phillip graves#modern warfare#cod nikolai#john soap mactavish#kyle gaz garrick#modern warfare 2#simon ghost riley

what university sends out academic integrity suspicion mails on CHRISTMAS EVE??? 😭😭 i know they’re just being overly careful with this assignment and that it’s not Actual suspicion, just that i have to meet with my tutor to “check in” and “ensure” but BROOOO that shit makes me so stressed out
#you know the fear of ai has gone too far when students who DONT USE AI AT ALL have to deal with the concerns#why am i compiling my editing history and notes into an evidence document when i’ve done nothing wrong#it’s adding so much unnecessary pressure#especially on international students!!! bruh i am Fucked if i get issues with my uni#and international students usually get flagged more often#i have no evidence of that other than what i’ve seen happen around me#but the only thing i’ve ever had to defend is my writing style#like yes i was not born in england yes i can write academic english#stfuuuuu#sorry for the rant the uni gods tried me today#hoping my tutor will be chill and let the meeting actually be super informal and short#carina is a student

just remembered someone saying they disliked the finale cause sam should've become a reclusive professor or something adjacent... like yeah the same sam who has definitelyyyy expressed any interest in becoming an educator or having that role or any role(s) adjacent... the same sam who has definitelyyyy had explored arcs relating to that idea... on the show that definitelyyyyy themes or allegories relating to the idea of education/teacher/roles relating... sure...
#don't piss me off#you know what sam has several arcs relating to + is a fundamental theme of supernatural?#the ideal of the nuclear!! which the finale does include. hope this helps :)#jared 'i'll tutor you in college algebra!' / 'i'd love to be an english teacher' padalecki is more likely to become a prof than sam ever was#. sorry#same people who turn around and br posts about how supernatural doesn't explore it's own themes i can't fucking dealllllll#ludere
