[Closed] Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!

Who: Lucy Kesswick and Karl Aurion/Richard Locke
Where: Locke City High School
When: After class, Wednesday 4/9.
What: Lucy's busted for writing notes in class. Network notes.
Warnings: None to speak of!

Ever since she first started talking to Anais, Lucy has been using the network as her own personal note-exchange service. It wasn't that she meant to pass notes in class. It was just that sometimes, there were important things that needed to be addressed immediately, like the rumors that Anais had been picked up by the feds during her first period class.

Most of the time, Lucy was able to get away with it, because her teachers simply assumed she was scribbling down notes for their class. But not this time. While passing through the aisles of desks, Mr. Locke had caught sight of her notes before Lucy could flip back to her real notes for the class.

When Mr. Locke asked her to stay after class, Lucy knew she was in trouble. Apprehension flooded over her. She was going to get a demerit, wasn't she? Or worse, detention! How would her brother react to that?

The bell rang and the rest of the class began to filter out. It's only when the last student leaves the classroom that Lucy rises to her feet.

"I'm sorry!" she blurts out before Mr. Locke can say anything. "I know I shouldn't have been writing notes in class, but it was important! I -- I won't do it again!"

"No, it isn't that. My supervisors wanted someone to keep an eye for numbered at the school and felt my position was perfect for that purpose." Why bother sending someone new who could raise suspicions. Only downside to that plan was that Karl never sent in anything on the Numbers Club or, if he did, it was all faked information.

Unlike any message boards, people asking questions doesn't bother Karl in the least. Sometimes explanations are necessary. Sometimes a lot of explanations are. Without explanations, people never learn or they end up doing something stupid. If giving answers helps with that, Karl doesn't mind if Lucy comes to him everyday, "Come to me with any questions you may have. My door is open whenever you may need it."
