WHO: Gavin, Peter, and OPEN~
WHAT: Peter is trying to teach Gavin to read, and Gavin is getting distracted by literally everything, and everyone.
WHEN: A few times, as the lessons are semi-regular, in the days following the wake.
WHERE: in the weird little library in the basement
NOTES: Ridiculous hijinks



He was doing his best. He really was. But Gavin had the attention span of a goldfish, and trying to sit still for long periods focusing on something he found difficult was worse.

He'd never really figured out how to read. Every time he tried the runes would seem to move around on their own, or flip over, and it was extremely frustrating. Peter, however, was absolutely determined that Gavin should learn to read properly and stop defacing the community bulletin boards with his scribbled drawings.

They'd managed to scramble a few books together for the purpose, and some sheets of parchment, and Gavin was working on drawing a surprisingly well rendered butt as Peter was pulling out the next text to start with.

As soon as Gavin happened to see anyone wandering by, he called out and waved them over.

"Perfect!" Gavin decreed as soon as Peter started tidying up. That was always a good sign. "We'll double back with you and make an adventure of it. I'm sure I still have a couple smoke bombs, left--"

That makes Korrin snort in amusement. "Smoke bombs? What do you expect to use those against, down here? I thought we agreed, no hunting the vermin." This is either going to end awesomely or horribly, isn't it? Which doesn't deter the Vashoth mage at all. She's in need of something silly and this seems as though it could fit the description.
