Yesterday's meeting with River was still fresh in Kerrigan's mind. As a result, she was... thoughtful, and maybe a little distracted, adding what had been spoken about in class yesterday to her memories of the images she had been picking up over the past year or so.

Resignation and that malicious spark of hope that Zeratul had left behind fought each other in her mind. She couldn't get a grip on either, and that irritated her.

River would bring back succesful reports soon enough, she was sure of that. There would be new species of zerg. They would swallow up a great deal of her time, and then she could go hunting for xel'naga artifacts. Work this all out. Stop being party to human weakness...

Ngh. She embedded a pencil in the wall with her telekinesis and glared at it.

[[ open! though warning for SP later; today is going to be a looong day. ]]

"I still want to be able to do that," Emma said from the doorway, looking at the pencil. "I believe you mentioned the opportunity for private lessons in class last week?"

"Quite frankly, I'm disappointed it took you this long," Kerrigan said, breezily, looking up from said pencil.

"I've been working with Ino on occasion, and I figured your office would be full of eager students after your offer last week," Emma replied, coming in to take a seat. "Now that I'm taking on Jonothon as a pupil, I need to accept that I can't teach myself everything."

"I've only had the one so far," Kerrigan said, though she didn't sound fussed. "Most of them find me a little off-putting." That... could be a joke. "But it's nice to get confirmation you kids can be taught something about yourselves. Anything in particular you want to learn, or shall I just assume ignorance?"

"They find you off-putting? Have they met other psions?" In Emma's experience all of them tended to be.... strong willed and predominantly female.

Or just 'bitchy,' depending on who you asked.

"Assume ignorance. I know how to shield and read other people; I wipe minds, put people to sleep, and create pain, but for all I know there's better ways to do it than what I know."

"You'd almost start to wonder," Kerrigan agreed, drawling. "You're also right about the other matter. There are a lot of better ways... and you don't need to be a teek to figure them out, trust me."

She raised her chin, shutting the door behind Emma with her telekinesis.

Emma followed the shutting door with envious eyes. "That doesn't mean I can't express admiration for the ability," she sighed, by 'admiration' meaning 'envy.'

Emma folded her hands in her lap, and fixed Kerrigan with an expectant look. "I am at your disposal."

"Just what I was hoping to hear," Kerrigan said, mildly. "I don't suppose you've figured out cloaking yet, have you?"

She shook her head. "I can focus very hard on 'you can't see me,' if that's what you mean, but if I get distracted, it fails," she admitted. "It's harder the more people I try to influence, and I can't expand it to include other people at all."

Charlie didn't enter the office, perhaps out of fear, perhaps out of...some weird sense of respect.

"So, heard the news?" She would try to sound like it didn't matter, but truth was, she felt still embarrassed at her little accident on the past day.

"I definitely heard something," she said, dryly. "You almost blew out my eardrum."

Possibly she was going to be even more annoyed by this omg future thread spoilers!!1 by the time Zoe came by about the same damn thing.

"I forced an imperfect combustion, otherwise I would've brougth summer back a little earlier in the preserve." And roast Ariel in the process, too. She was so not thinking about that.

"Well...now you know just how fucked up I am."

"Teenagers," she snorted. "They have some control issues, and they think they're 'fucked up'," Kerrigan made no airquotes, but they were audible. "Get into my office, miss McGee."

"Okay, I think I need to really come clean to you then." It was a matter of time, perhaps? She entered the office and sat, taking her time to actually look again at the woman.

"Mind if we do this...on a more private channel?"

"Telepathy, or just squirrel-be-gone?" Kerrigan asked, without missing a beat.

"Let them stare at us staring at each other in silence."

"This counts as practice, anyway?", proyected quietly, wondering if Kerrigan had heard her.

Kerrigan's mental voice sounded a little deeper than her physical one, brimming with barely restrained power. You might want to speak up, she said, But yes, I suppose it does. Speak.

When it came down to it, there were only a handful of teachers who Zoe truly trusted, mainly for their years of service to the school while remaining relatively sane. Kerrigan was one of them, so when it came to the Charlie situation, it was relatively easy for Zoe to decide who to talk to. How she'd phrase it was another matter entirely.

Spotting Kerrigan in her office, Zoe went up to the doorway and knocked belatedly it seems. "Hi there," she said, smiling softly. "Do you have a moment?"

"Principal Winchester," Kerrigan recognised, sitting straight on up. "Of course. What can I help you with?"

... She may have briefly touched on Zoe's mind just to check River hadn't accidentally killed someone, or something.

"There was an...incident yesterday that I wanted to talk to you about, involving a student," Zoe said. She might still be tempted to deal with River on her own, as insane as that would be. "Her name is Charlie, and, well, it seems she's got a bit of trouble with setting fires. Without matches."

From: [identity profile] on-her-korhal.livejournal.com
"I heard," Kerrigan said, poking at one ear in emphasis. "She was down here an hour or two ago. I've been trying to teach her a few things. The girl likes to go big."

Date: 2011-01-14 01:07 am (UTC)
bigdamnprincipal: (i am actually smiling)
From: [personal profile] bigdamnprincipal
"She really does. I was planning on asking you to speak with her, so I'm glad she was already here," Zoe said, giving Kerrigan a grateful smile. "It doesn't seem like she wants to blow the place up, and when I thought of people who might be able to help her...well, you just made sense."

From: [identity profile] on-her-korhal.livejournal.com
"Do you want me to give her some punishment?" Kerrigan asked. She was, naturally, interested in drawing some advantage from this situation. "I've been thinking about getting her some training. Some... grip, for lack of a better word. If you want me to..."

From: [personal profile] bigdamnprincipal
"I don't know how much punishment she needs, but I also don't think you should go easy on her. If she hadn't blown up in the preserve, we might not have known that anything was wrong, and I can't just let that slide," Zoe said.

From: [identity profile] on-her-korhal.livejournal.com
"I understand," Kerrigan said, easily. "I'm taking her off-island to get some of the edge off of her this weekend. I'm sure I can rustle something else up to drive home the situation."
