They appear in midair, visible out of a few thirtieth-floor apartments.
One starts to fall. The other catches her by the arm, flings out - wing-shapes of light - and slows her, spiraling down until they're at street level.
This one teaches green kids and finds elementals really fascinating and is so upset about people mistreating them. This one runs grey after-school programs and has opinions about letting young children be young children and have play-focused learning. This one teaches orange kids and has a elemental friend who lives in her apartment's rooftop gardens.
Cool. And they can handle the possibility of red students? Big world. Possible some managed to hide.
She is going to be set up to avoid the necessity but if something happened, two-year-olds being two-year-olds, they would have to cope and not lash out at the kids.
They're oranges, they're not going to physically attack the children. They'd want the day off so they can go shower, though.
She narrows it down by how much she and her more closely cooperating elementals get along with them, with a view toward diversity of previous castes of students.
She can get teachers of every caste of students if she wants. The blue and green teachers are accustomed to higher pay.
She thinks she will pay them all at the higher rates. The lower the typical teacher pay the more of the caste there will be running around to wrangle, after all. And she'd like them to really want to keep their jobs.
...she is going to pay her child-wranglers the same amount. They can get bonuses if she likes their performance.
They are so excited! And slightly intimidated! The place they are staying is nicer than they have seen, in some cases! Are they really going to all be learning in one classroom?
They have a varying command of Anitami; some lean on their elementals for translation. One of them heard that Anitam kills people a lot and is scared; another one thinks that's cool and wants to go watch.
