Limni Keri, Zakynthos, Monday Evening

[rebelseekspizza]

The village of Limni Keri laid a little whiles out from the Portalocity terminal at Zakynthos's capital of Zante, but it was a pleasant trip full of beach views, tall hills and olive trees. The village itself was small, its various shops, homes and restaurants spread out across a square mile and a half, ending on a quiet beach.

The shuttle took them to a pretty yellow apartment complex. It held no restaurant, but the owners had left a spread of Greek mezedes behind for the arriving guests. Of course, if you were truly hungry, you could always take a stroll along the beach and pick one of the adorable Greek tavernas that lined the coast.

Come in, settle in. Enjoy the warm temperatures of Greece, and the sound of the surf.

"Oh!"

Yeah, despite the two beds situation, Karolina had kind of forgotten to expect to be sharing a room. And, yes, she looked kind of startled when it turned out who she was sharing it with was Arlo 2's Hot Mom. Whose name she was probably going to have to ask at some point here, because that one - although accurate! - was maybe a little objectifying. And unwieldy.

"Uh, yeah," she said. "Hi. Did you have a preference on which bed you wanted?"

Of course she'd ask that.

Rosa turned away from the window and took a moment to scope out the two beds before quirking her chin up toward the one she hadn't already figured was hers by process of elimination.

"Yeah," she said, "the one with all your stuff on it."

But since she just knew PBH was probably the type to start apologizing or flailing or something, and, while that would have been hilarious, Rosa knew she kinda had to live with this person while she was here, she added, "I'm kidding. This one's fine."

Karolina had pretty much grown out of the kneejerk reaction to fully flail, but it was pretty obvious from her face that she'd been about to at least offer to change beds and maybe apologize.

(Okay, probably apologize.)

But she ended up huffing out a slightly sheepish little laugh. "Okay, good," she said. She settled the brochure on her lap, for now. "Also, hey, I'm Karolina. I'm pretty sure I never introduced myself."

Re: Room 304

Well, at least that saved Rosa the trouble of trying to figure out if she'd already been introduced to her and just straight up forgot or not. Not that she would have lost any sleep over it. And there might even be a chance she wouldn't straight up forget again if they were sharing a space.

"Rosa," she offered back. "So how are these school trip things supposed to work, anyway?"

Which was as close as she was going to get to admitting that she felt completely out of her element right now.

Karolina shrugged a little. "I have more experience from these as a student than a faculty member," she said, because everyone needed reminding of how young she was, right? "But basically, it's just a week of seeing the sights and going out. And, like, maybe try not set a bad example for the students and also say something if you see them doing something they shouldn't be doing?"

She ended up shrugging again.

"But things always seemed pretty easy-going from the student side. Really, it's just a vacation for everyone."

Oh, god, that was right; she was roomie with practically a baby. A baby guidance counselor.

Hey, now there was a new nickname! Baby Guidance Counselor.

...she was never remembering Karolina's name now.

"I could...probably manage that."

Should that doubtful pause be worrisome? Giving the kids crap if they're doing something they shouldn't be wasn't the issue; that was basically her normal job and honestly one of the best parts about it. Not setting a bad example, though? That one was a lot trickier.

Re: Room 304

Karolina found it maybe a little worrisome. Like, maybe she should keep an eye on Rosa, too, and not just the kids.

"Well," she said slowly, "do your best?"
