Afternoon at the Museum
Who: Yang... and you!
What: It's time for a field trip to the Musée de l'Armée in Paris, France. The afternoon is in the museum. But Yang took everyone at like 10 AM as an excuse to get out and see Paris.
Where: Paris! And at the Army Museum.
When: February 25
Notes: The following prompts are if you want to interact with Yang directly! Otherwise, please feel free to use this as an excuse to do threads in Paris! Yang's taking basically anyone -- heck, even other teachers, TA's, and RA's -- because he really just wanted an easy field trip after grading all the papers and despairing over the fact he might have made his courses too hard.
A. WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE PARIS RIGHT NOW
[The helicopters have landed at Charles de Gaulle airport, everyone has bused into the city center, and it's now about 11:00 in the morning. They aren't supposed to be at the museum until two. Thus, standing in front of the crowd, Wen-li Yang...
...is due to give a speech.]
So, Paris! It's a pretty big deal.
[Hm, what else is important...]
Meet at the Army Museum at 2! And try to not get in too much trouble. Have fun!
[He'll hang around for a second in case anyone has questions.]
B. AND NOW: OLD STUFF!
[At about 1:57 PM, Yang comes running up with a sandwich still in his mouth and a paper cup with tea in it in hand. He skids to a stop in front of the museum's steps, looks around, and... peers at the people waiting for him.
Then, sheepishly, he waves.
The museum is much too big to do a guided tour. However, unlike the free roam period in Paris, Yang is actually a good source of information here. He roams between the different groups of students, answering questions, providing historical detail, and showing that he isn't actually terrible at his job all of the time.
He'd be easy to approach during any of this.]

no subject
Probably.]
It's okay. We might need the directions just in case.
no subject
[Walking back to the museum, he's taking pictures again. Some of the same things he'd already photographed on the way to the restaurant.]
no subject
...You already have pictures of that. Don't you remember?
no subject
[And he intends to look into it, eventually.]
I don't uh, I don't remember going to the restaurant, just that we were talking about getting chocolate somewhere! It's only been what, like a half hour? It's not that much time really~!
no subject
[Well, she's concerned about him. Her brow furrows, and she frowns at him as she listens to him.
On the other hand, she's...a little bit relieved. If he's forgotten their time at the restaurant, then that means he's forgotten that she admitted to being a vampire. That's a good thing.]
I guess it's not that much time, but that's still really concerning. But I'm sure it'll be okay, yeah?
no subject
It will be fine~! I'll figure it out!
[If not, well, he brought it on himself. He'll deal.]
Oh! I know where we are now!
[They've reached where they started the restaurant excursion.]
no subject
Yeah, I hope so.
[You're doing her a big worry.]
Oh, you do? Good!
[That's a relief to hear, honestly. Adelaide feels herself relaxing just a little bit as she takes a look around.]
I think we're a little early...
no subject
[He's never early for things, and isn't sure what to do. He doesn't want to go inside and look at museum junk any earlier than he has to, though. Toki points to a bench near the museum entrance.]
Should we just wait? It's not too cold out~!
[He's heading there anyway, because whatever was in the pastries is not settling.]
no subject
Ugh. Magic and visions and all of that is too complicated.]
It's pretty nice, yeah. But if you get too cold they might have benches inside, too...
[Probably not, but it might be a good idea. The cold doesn't bother her very much anymore.]
no subject
[He likes the cold air, though.]
How are the fish doing?
[He's just going to make idle small talk while they wait for everyone; and also review vision notes for similarities. She's probably lost him from focused conversation for a while.]
no subject
[Or so she assumes.
She leans back on the bench, crossing her feet at the ankles and looking up at the sky. It really is a nice day.
At least there's that.]
no subject
[It's an acknowledgement that Adelaide said something, but he's not listening. About of a third of his notes can be put into a coherent scenario, and that's not very promising, so he's abandoning the task for now. Toki puts his phone in his pocket and curls up on the bench, trying not to invade her space too much. He's taken to sleeping wherever when the need arises, instead of any set schedule or time frame.]
Wake me up when it's time?
[He doesn't cares if she does, though. Sleeping through the museum tour is fine, too.]
no subject
[Today has been an odd day. A lot of the days have been odd for her, lately, but today is definitely up there. It's not like it was bad, just strange.
She wonders if Toki is as okay as he says he is, but she's going to let him nap until she sees the students reconvening and Yang reappearing before reaching over to gently nudge his shoulder.]
Hey, Toki?
no subject
Is it time?
[He mutters it before even opening his eyes. But yes, there are the students and Yang. Toki stands up and stretches a little. The bench in the cold was probably not a good place to nap after all. He's already smiling, and acting excited in preparation for dealing with whichever students he runs into in the museum.]
It was great hanging out with you, Adelaide~! We should do it again sometime~! But for now, the museum awaits~!
