I would've burned down the whole damn administration.

[ She shakes her head, more words clearly on her tongue but held back, just barely. ]

[covertizer]

That would've just got you into trouble, and set a bad example, sensei.

[throwabookatit]

N-not...literally...! I'm just- I'm just saying a group that'd let something like that just...just go on under their noses, it doesn't sound like there's anything worth salvaging.

[covertizer]

[ Rebecca, you're cute when you're flustered. Bless. ]

They had to face up to all the public scrutiny, don't worry. How he got away with it for so long, why did no one ask any questions about what was going on...

It was satisfying.

[throwabookatit]

[ No she's not?? Excuse?? ]

...I hope it ruins them. No one- not a single student should experience something like...like that.

[covertizer]

[ She is. Fight me!! ]

There are lots of people who experience things they shouldn't. Not all of them see justice, but... when it does happen it's worth it.

[ He'd like to see it happen here too. ]

[throwabookatit]

...Yes. Yes, I- I think we can agree there, too.

[covertizer]

[ ... ]

I think I did Hank a disservice when we first woke up here. Authority in general... hasn't really done much to prove themselves worth what they demand from you.

[ It's not something he'd been able to say outright to him, before everything happened. ]

You turned out to be not a lot like the sort of teacher I was expecting. And he wasn't what I expected from a police officer.

[throwabookatit]

[ Oh. Oh, that... ]

...If that's all you had to compare to before...then of course. I said it...to Mister Young, to Hale, to all of them. It's not the student's job, to give you respect. It's yours, as a teacher, to give them a reason to respect you.

[covertizer]

That's a good message in general. If you have to demand respect, you probably don't deserve it.

[throwabookatit]

It's what all people in a position of authority should acknowledge. ...It's what...Hank believed, I would gather.

[covertizer]

... Yeah.

He was a good guy. That was clear enough. [ He just... was too cautious. ]
