Its A-maaaazing

The Estate's meticulously kept gardens, including a hedgemaze that students have occasionally described as "sadistic" and a sizeable rose garden. Benches in shaded spots are plentiful, and the gardens are popular to study in on pleasant days.

Its A-maaaazing

Christie was walking through the hedge maze, fighting the urge to give in to her growing frustration and just go *through* the hedges.

And at one point, she'd come across Cal, walking through the maze from another path. His eyes, oddly, didn't seem to be focused, and where he was looking had no bearing on where he was going.

Cal froze in place for a moment, blinked a few times, then seemed to move much more naturally, like a stiffness that was barely noticeable disappeared as he looked around, his eyes focusing on Christie. "Oh, hi," he said. "Sorry. Lost in thoughts for a minute there."

Cal shrugged. "They're classes. You listen, you regurgitate what they say for the tests, they give you an A. You?"

"Can't trade you, then?" Cal asked dryly. "Pointless classes are bad enough without having to prove you're paying attention."

"Oh god, seriously," Cal griped. "I think people only show up to that stupid class to eye-bang the instructors."

"Ugh." Christie said, rolling her eyes in turn "Maybe you'll get lucky and get out of PC soon. What do you do, anyway?"

"That is truly, truly evil." Christie said, sounding amused "I don't know if I should admire you, or smash you before you become a full fledged supervillain."

"Or you could just publicly disavow any knowledge while privately asking to see the steamy stuff that the headmistress is sending to the language prof," Cal said, 'innocently.'

"That just means they have to work harder at it," he pointed out. "I mean... you know how people go through mid-life crises and start overdoing it trying to act young, right?"
