one/ video/ count your blessings, not your flaws

( The video opens to half a second of Serah looking vaguely unsure about what she's doing before a smile crosses her face when her phone begins recording. )

Hi. ( Start with manners. It's only polite. ) I'm Serah. I'm one of the newer people here. And, well, back home I was a teacher. I know this place doesn't have a proper school or anything, but I wanted to help with that.

( Which is why she's stood in a building, one which has seen better days but is in one piece. )

I think, if we fix this place a little, we could use the rooms for hosting lessons.

( How can you say no to that optimistic little voice.

A breath before she speaks again- )

That's all I wanted to say. Thank you for listening.

( Serah Farron out. )

( It's not that much of a bother, really. There's still a lot of time before everything's set up. But, for the question, Serah shakes her head. )

Well, I taught a little of everything. A lot of history, but...

( This doesn't seem to be the place for the history of Pulse and Cocoon. )

Seems more useful to offer practical skills.

[ It is to Rose. And that's all that she needs to decide to know that if Serah wants the kitchen, she'll find somewhere else to teach her class out of. ]

Ah, so. A general ed teacher. Cool. I always respected people who could do that.

I'm not great with kids.

( Well, it sounded like one of the rooms upstairs also had relatively good acoustics. Maybe that would work? )

They can be pretty difficult. ( Serah laughs as she speaks, remembering all the times she's had kids refusing to do their homework, or running off with things they'd pilfered from Maqui's workshop. )

[ For dance classes, upstairs might pose a danger. Even though the building seems sturdier than most, Rose isn't actually sure how much she trusts the floorboard to not give out after all the wear they've been through. ]

Yeah, they can. I mean, I like 'em enough but... Still. I wouldn't have the patience for it.
