Episode 25: Staff Room Shenanigans

I sit in my corner of the staff room. Teachers chatter, gossip, and maneuver.

They expose their own flaws effortlessly. One boasts of lesson plans, inadvertently revealing incompetence in detail. Another misquotes curriculum rules, floundering in their own arrogance.

I sip tea. “…Idiots,” I murmur softly. A subtle smirk plays across my lips.

Later, one timid teacher seeks guidance. I nod faintly. “…Follow my rules, or chaos will find you.”

The staff room, like my classroom, remains my domain. Shadows are mine. Order, subtle. Success, quiet.
