Oh yeah! I read it. But it didn't seem like it would have any practical applications later, so I didn't really pay attention.

[bibliocorn]

[He casts her a look.]

Miss, you are aware that you're in a classical literature class and paying attention to the curriculum is a rather important part of the learning process. How do you expect to pass your exams?

[tinyfoods]

I was going to read it again before the exam.

[The entire thing. Apparently, she thinks this is possible? It might be for her.]

[bibliocorn]

[So very, very pointed, young lady:]

You're going to read all one thousand, two hundred and seventy-six pages before the exam?

[tinyfoods]

[...Well now that he says it out loud, it sounds a little impossible.]

...Why did you assign something that long in the first place? We have other classes too.

[bibliocorn]

Because if you followed the lesson plans I gave you [oh, you better believe he had those- colour coded and everything] then you would have been able to read it in plenty of time to prepare for your exam without jeopardising the other lessons.

[Except not really, but books were the MOST IMPORTANT class anyway so!]

[tinyfoods]

Oh! Well, I'll just read the lesson plans again. That should be fine.

[She does not care nearly enough about this.]

[bibliocorn]

Well. There is always summer school. You might consider that an option.

[He is not impressed, not at all.]

[tinyfoods]

Oh, no, I have plans.

[She is too smart to be having this conversation. Yet here she is.]

[bibliocorn]

Oh? And what plans might they be, pray tell?

[Here she is. Teetering ever closer to losing her summer. Bye, summer, nice knowing you.]

[tinyfoods]

I'm going to build this!

[She whips out the paper she's been doodling on. It is nothing that would be coherent to anyone except her.]

[bibliocorn]

[Sunburst likes to think he's pretty smart. He's good at lateral thinking - at seeing the information between the lines.

But he has no idea what that is. He squints at it. ]

...And this is more important than passing your exams?

[tinyfoods]

Well, maybe not more important, since I have to pass the exams to get the break I need to work on this.

[She sets the paper back down, smiling at it.]

But it's still pretty important!

[bibliocorn]

Yes. I won't deny that trying your best and extra-curricular activities are important.

[He slides The Count of Monte Cristo towards her, tapping it with an index finger.]

But please don't neglect your schoolwork, either. I'd hate to have to give you a poor grade while you're such a promising student.

[tinyfoods]

[She lets out a breath and pulls the book closer.]

Next time, let's read something about machines!

[bibliocorn]

[He chuckles a little.]

Fair deal. I have one about a time machine, will that suffice?

[tinyfoods]

Oh, that's perfect! Time machines are just fascinating.

[bibliocorn]

I thought that might work for you, somehow.

So. Read this one, and you'll get the Time Machine next semester.

[tinyfoods]

You've got it!

[She pulls the giant book closer.]
