"Uh, nothing. I was saying her class assumes we can't handle the concept of dialects, she was saying I was kind of obnoxious and should sit down. I think she won."

"...I mean if she assumes that she is correct, at least about me, but. What actually crossed my mind just now was wondering whether maybe I should've scheduled our first date for earlier than four days from now."

"You'll be very patient, and we'll all be very impressed by your restraint."

"No, see, I'll wait, but it will by no means be because I'm patient."

"Patience is a virtue, and one of us should probably pick up a couple, I'm fresh out."

"My virtues are perseverance and empathy, I think that's enough for one person!"

"I've got curious and appropriately suspicious, do those count?"

"I think they do, especially curious, that's a good one to have."

He's really not good at hiding that blush, is he?

The teacher begins a riveting lecture on...prounouns. They're starting with the basics, for review.

Why would he need to hide, he's so dashing when he blushes.

Pronouns!

"Vosotros, meanwhile, will not be an object of our focus, as it is rarely used-"

Cough. Cough cough. Cough.

"-As it is rarely used outside of Spain."

Students engage in halting pronunciation of somewhat familiar words they 'learned' last year.

They are welcome to talk amongst themselves if they speak only in Spanish!

Most students elect not to.

Ade is very terrible at languages! But he is good at talking. He will talk to a new person, like this girl.

"¡Hola! ¿Qué tal?" he tries.

"She won't actually care if you talk in English unless you've antagonized her."

She nods at Stiles.

"Wait, what?"

"En Español, por favor!"

"See what I mean?"

He snorts. "That's alright, that actually exhausted my knowledge of the language." He looks at Stiles. "You probably shouldn't antagonize teachers like that, cute stuff." Back to Erica. "By the way I'm Ade, I'm new, hi, nice to meet you."

"I'm Erica. I've sort of been around for a while. Cute stuff?"

"He's adorable! He was arguing with the teacher about dialects!"

"You said you're new. Have you heard of Lydia Martin?"

"Met her in chem, why?"

"I just think she'll want him, one of these days. She wants everyone, eventually, especially the ones who want her, and you probably shouldn't get in her way."

"Mmm, she did mention to me that nonmonogamy wasn't very popular, around here, but I'm not actually the jealous type."

"It's more that she might not want to include you, but sure, if you think the high is worth the pain, go for it."
