Mark stopped in front of the classroom, unsure what to expect from his new teacher. Not that he wasn't a teacher himself, but Seru here was suppose to teach him the ropes of Psychics so technically that made him his teacher. He fidgeted nervously by the door, unsure what to do. Wasn't he suppose to knock? Oh, this was getting ridiculous. Mark fixed his outfit; a white button down covered with a black jacket, he wore simple blue jeans with white converse on his feet. It wasn't the best of his collection, but it would have to do since he just arrived.
He switched the backpack from his right hand to his left, preferring to use the strong arm to carry it. With his right fist he gently tapped on the wooden door before walking in, gasping as he saw the rooms interior. No classroom he'd seen before looked like this. Mark smiled, then patiently waited for Seru to address him, wondering if he would be getting a list of student's names.

Seru had been working on some papers to grade when he felt it. Someone beyond the door. He however didn't go further into it; instead he'd wait here for them to come in on their own accord. He yawned slightly readjusting his hair and scarf. He wore a gray long sleeve shirt with dark denim jeans and a thin black scarf draped around his shoulders. His usual attire, along with a small pair of square glasses.
Finally he heard a knock at the door and a man walk in. He looked not too much younger than Seru himself. Seeing as the man probably wasn't going to talk much he probed his mind to merely figure out his name. Mark. He sighed looking up from his work at the man. "Hello Mark. Do you need something?" He said with a smile before going back to his work. Little did he know he had a student teacher.

Mark smiled, so Seru knew his name did he? "Hello Miyung, I'm Mark as you are already aware of. I'm your new student teacher." he smiled at the other teacher, walking swiftly up to the desk. The mind probe hadn't disturbed him, so he was all set for the class wasn't he? Mark gently set the bookbag at his feet and waited for Miyung to respond.

Seru smiled. "Student teacher? Are they replacing me now?" He said jokingly with a grin. "Well Ok Mark...welcome." He said showing him the room. "I just ask you not mess around with anything to much." He said with another smile. "So I guess this means you'll be teaching a few of my classes? Or is this a sit-down-and-watch-me-teach kind of thing?" He asked leaning forward on his desk pushing his hair out of his eyes.

Mark laughed lightly, smiling at Seru. "Mostly just a sit-down-and-watch-you-teach kind of thing, I can't be trusted in the classroom alone." he joked, giving yet another small smile. Since he was dealing with a psychics teacher, first things had better come first. Rather quickly he set up a couple mind barriers, though he kept them low so as not to act suspicious. Then he took tabs of the room, mentally creating a mirror image in his mind in case something was ever misplaced. Lastly he turned to the teacher, try to decide whether or not he would be able to deal with a gay teacher. Yeah, Mark was gay, and quiet proud of it. "Is there anything I'll need to know about the student?" he asked in a softer voice, not wanting to seem rude in anyway since they would be having to work together for awhile.

"Ah okay then..." Seru said with a small smile. "You'll teach one class by the end of your work here." He said absent-mindedly. What better way to learn than through experience? Seru immediately noticed the barriers put up and was not at all surprised. This was a psychics after all. He sighed. "Students?" He said looking back at his papers but couldn't help but glance up at Mark once in awhile. "Uhm no you don't really need to know anything specific." He picked up a paper with a list of students names and pictures. "But you can have a look." He handed Mark the paper with a small smile. "My classes usually start in the afternoons, and I often have extra lessons that you probably won't need to go to." He said finishing.

Mark smiled slipping the paper into his pocket, taking a quick glance. Then he sighed, might as well get it over with. "Just in case you'll want to have me transfer classes you should know that I'm gay." he said, as if he did it all the time. Which for the most part he did, normally because the teacher would kick him out once they found out.

Seru merely nodded at the piece of information not exactly looking up from his work as he pushed his glasses up and turning around to peer through his file cabinet. He turned back looking at Mark with a smile. "No problem..." He said putting the paper in a drawer. "I am too." He told him absent-mindedly. It didn't surprise Seru he was gay. "So then are you dating someone." He asked for a lack of anything else to say. He had to make some sort of conversation. Break the ice.

Mark laughed a little, shaking his head at Seru's strange question. "Not for a long time. You?" he was being pleasant, going with the conversation. He watched Seru work quietly, wondering if he interrupted something important. "Do you need any help with that?" he tried, feeling useless. After all, Mark was suppose to be here to help.

He looked up at the question. "Hm no...no." He smiled slightly. "Not for a long time I haven't dated." He said with a sigh before returning to his work. "Ah...I don't think so I'm really just filing things away." He said pushing the drawer in. "I'm finished really." He said turning in his chair and adjusting his scarf. He folded his hands pulling up to his desk and laying them there. "Well welcome to psychics." He smiled pulling out the textbook. "This is what we use so I guess you'll need a copy." He put it in front of Mark. “So are you trying to become a psychics teacher?” Seru asked.

Mark smiled, picking up the book gently, cradling it between his arms. "Actually, yeah. I've always wanted to be a psychics teacher, even if I've only known about the craft for a few years." he gave a small smile at his weaker joke. So Seru wasn't in a relationship? He wondered why, the guy seemed nice enough. Oh well, it really wasn't any of Mark's business, yet he couldn't help but be curious.

Seru just smiled "Well it's a lot of work, but it pays off." He said with another grin. "Psychics in wonderful." He said. He had always had some mental barriers around parts of his memory, very strong ones that couldn't be broken. He sighed and gave another smile, at loss for words. He did that. Smile. Cover everything up, like nothing happened. Don't falter. Make your life appear fine. That was how things were. Seru coughed slightly before turning to look at his room. "What do you think of the room?" He asked him.

Mark gave a quick glance to the room in question. It was quiet bizarre looking, strange items seemed to be lurking on ever surface. Even the ceiling held secret. He could get used to this, this room anyway. Not Seru. He hadn't meant Seru at all, of course. Back to the room. Focus. Don't let yourself wander. Mark turned back around; "It's pretty cool."

Seru smiled. "Yeah I take pride in my room." He laughed realizing how stupid that was. His mind wandered for a second realizing he'd probably have to chaperon the Holiday Party then realizing that Mark would have to as well seeing as he was Seru's student teacher. "You know I just realized that you'll probably be helping me chaperon the Holiday dance." He said this with no thought or reason just more so to fill silence.

Mark stared at him, wide eyed. "Will I have to dress up?" he asked, worried about his shabby appearance. Somehow Seru made him feel horrible about what he'd chosen to wear, should he have made more of an effort this morning? Maybe he should have just tried harder, maybe less ripped up jeans? This wasn't exactly the example he'd hoped to create.
