"How did I call it so well?" Maya was genuinely surprised that she had called Hiro out as a nerd before he even walked into the room "He's bordering Farkle levels" She extended one hand behind her with an extended finger to tell Zay that not even one word was to leave his lips. "Again, she ain't here, I ain't takin' responsibility for my actions if you say something dumb."
"My lips are sealed" The Texan left in the room rose his hands before moving one to 'zip' his mouth shut
"Go on, robot boy, show off. We're not gonna learn anything else here today anyway." He rested an elbow on Lucas' desk and rested her cheek in her hand to watch what was going to happen next.
Oh, she chose her words poorly. Show off? That's the last thing someone wants to say to a Hamada, especially this one. So he touches a few buttons on the iPad and the bot springs to life. The smile is swiftly replaced by something angrier and Hiro's own expression shifts to one of passive boredom. The bot, meanwhile, has taken to parkouring around the room, bouncing and flipping from desk to desk, spinning all over the place
At one point, it splits into three separate pieces that spin and flip and roll around until all three are on Mr Matthew's desk They reform into the original bot, the face switches back to the happy yellow smile and it bows before slumping again.
"Like I said, it's just a small hobby. Something I tinker with."
Tinker. Right. Even Mr Matthews looks a bit surprised.
The classroom as a whole was definitely impressed, Farkle having a special gleam to his eye as the prospect of having someone in the class with brains that match his, something Maya recognized immediately. And debated for two whole seconds warning Cory about before shrugging it off thinking it'd be more amusing to watch what chaos unfolded before Riley got back to school.
"Looks like we've got two different styles of Farkle in the room, now." Which was to say she liked your style, Hiro. And she looked around the room for anyone ready to comment on the fact she sounded like she was mocking Farkle because there would be a dangerous glare sent at them.
Farkle decided to translate for the new kid because Maya and speaking nice without Riley was harder than with Riley. "What she means is welcome to our class. Take a seat and watch as we don't learn anything about what we were promised a year ago on the chalkboard." Now it was Farkles turn to stare Cory down with narrowed eyes as the teacher threw his hands in the air in surrender.
Hiro's smile is a bit sly and amused at the reactions he received, even shooting Mr Matthews an apologetic smile and a small bow before retrieving his bot and sitting down, a s***-eating grin on his face. Cool. Okay. He was going to like it here.
When Maya speaks, she has his full attention and he can't help but note she kinda looks like Honey Lemon (who he has a crush on) and acts like Go-Go (who he also has a crush on). So...yeah. That's interesting.
He turns to look at Farkle and asks "I'm guessing you're Farkle one-point-oh?" And nods at the answer, looking at Maya again.
"I heard the teacher call you Maya. Is that right?" Just to be sure.
"Yup." There was a roll of her shoulders in a shrug before looking to the words on the board again. The chances of her staying awake too much longer were unlikely, but she would remain impressive either way when it came down to it. "Hey Matthews before you start teaching about that whole 'New World' thing like you tried last time - Y'know when you made Sundance hop over three desks and book it out of the room" She had a shit-eating grin of her own on her face as she saw that familiar huffiness on their teachers face at that "You mind if I give Hiro a rundown of how this class really works or you wanna do it?"
Cory looked dumbfounded for a second before defeated and sighed, gesturing to Maya to explain.
"He tries an actual lesson unless he's clued into what's going on in kids lives before we get here, typically during breakfast, and it changes upon noticing something's wrong here or anything like that. He's tried teaching the same lesson about a dozen times and we wound up getting life lessons from history instead. Oh and I just sleep the entire time."
Zay leaned forward to sprawl across Lucas' empty desk to get closer to the conversation. "Quite impressively, too. Didn't know you could sleep with your eyes open until I came here." He sank back into his seat. "Oh and you'll be meetin' the guy that sits here tomorrow. His Pappy Joe-"
Maya snorted "Pappy Joe..."
"And mom gave the airport a real good screamin' and he's gettin' on the next plane from Austin to here." He then leaned over and in a not-so-whisper "Also don't worry she's a bit nicer when Riley's here." He then leaned back into his seat.
