Did the classroom need to look like a tavern every time they taught? No. Was it gonna be anyway? Yes. Yes it was.

But this time there were puppies. Puppies everywhere.

Which was why one teacher was on the floor, letting them just crawl all over him. "I love this class so much!"

"I gathered as much when you wrote the outline," Cara said dryly. I'm sure you were all shocked by this.

Magnus popped his head up, cuddling two puppies close to his chest. "I got it all planned out, we start easy and work up to training cats to not shove their butts in your face."

The impossible dream.

"Have you ever even met a cat, Magnus?" Sincere question there. "We're starting with puppies because they're simple, eager, and easy to please."

Much like one of your teachers.

"I've named this lil' guy Chortles. And this one Kevin," he said proudly. "So everyone pick a puppy and learn the secret language of trust."

Via petting.
